Washington's force arrives back in eastern Virginia…

July 1754 CE

Washington's force arrives back in eastern Virginia in mid-July.

Washington delivers his report of the battles to Governor Dinwiddie on July 17th, expecting a rebuke, but Washington instead receives a vote of thanks from the House of Burgesses and Dinwiddie blames the defeat not on Washington but on poor supply and the refusal of aid by the other colonies.
