	Lambert Cadwalader Papers, American Philosophical Society
		Lambert Cadwalader, born in Trenton New Jersey in 1743, was the son of Hannah Lambert and Thomas Cadwalader, a physician.
		Cadwalader, however, refused to take command as he was only paroled by General Howe and not exchanged for an officer of equal rank; after struggling with the decision, he consulted George Washington who acted by issuing a general order that no enemy officers of field grade were to be release.
		Although Cadwalader ostensibly wrote to Meredith to discuss real estate, the letters are valuable because he also communicated news about the war and current political situation and also a little bit about life in Philadelphia in the latter part of the eighteenth century.
