January 1778 CE

General Washington's problems at this time are not just with the British.

In the so-called Conway Cabal, some politicians and officers unhappy with Washington's performance in the campaign secretively discuss his removal.

Washington, offended by the behind-the-scenes maneuvering, lays the whole matter openly before Congress.

His supporters rally behind him, and the episode is abated.
