Description
This room also served as the General�s dining room. At 3 pm, quills and papers were put away and servants prepared the room for dinner. George and Martha Washington, the military staff, visiting officers and other guests, sometimes over 20 people, dined here from 3 until 6 pm.
At 9 pm the General and any overnight guests would return for supper, a lighter meal mostly consisting of leftovers
from dinner.
