Answer:

Howe enjoyed the comforts of Philadelphia

Explanation:

Howe was defeated early, so he wanted an easy victory and he thought that Philadelphia would be an easy win for him. It had little strategical value and his orders weren't specifically to take it, but it was how he decided to interpret in order to erase the stain of a defeat. Or so he wished that it would have been the case.
