What happens
The British troops in New York - the last vestige of British authority in the United States - departed Manhattan on November 25. The Continental Army led by George Washington marched triumphantly through the city and the last shot of the war was shot, by a British gunner firing a cannon at the jeering crowds gathered on the shore of Staten Island. The shot fell well short of the shore and the people shouted in triumph.
