Most of the 4,836 colonists who took advantage of the proclamation had done so before Trenton while British troops were enjoying their greatest success; AT NO TIME, however, HAD A LEADING REBEL SOUGHT PARDON."

- ^ "I was at Princeton from Saturday... till Wednesday.... Judge Stockton is not very well in health & much spoken against for his Conduct. He Signed Howes declaration & also gave his Word of honour that he would not meddle in the least in American affairs during the War. Mrs. Cochran was sent to the Enemies Lines by a flag of Truce and when Mr. Cochran came out to meet his wife he said to the Officers that went with the flag that Judge Stockton had brought Evidence to General Howe to prove that he was on his way to seek a protection when he was taken. This he denies to be true yet many credit it but Mr. Cochrans known Quarrel with him makes it very doubtful to candid persons."Letter from John Witherspoon to David Witherspoon.

Pomeroy; l823 ; page 103: "After the release of Mr. Stockton, his constitution was so materially impaired that he was never again able, except by occasional counsel and advice, to render any important services to his country. In fact, during the few remaining years of his life, he was never perfectly restored to health."
