Synopsis During the Battle of Trenton, at about eight o’clock on the morning of December 26, 1776, American troops surprised a Hessian picket guard, stationed in house along the Pennington road about a half mile outside Trenton. Even though a disorganized show of resistance, the Germans were quickly captured or dispersed. Barely simultaneously, General Sullivan’s troops approached the town of Trenton, announcing their arrival by the boom of artillery.
