Washingtons winter quarters in 1777 and 1778 were in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The site is located on the west bank of the Schuyikill river and is 22 miles from Philadelphia. Philadelphia was the capitol of the colonies at the time but was controlled by the British army.

The winter was extremely harsh one and the 11,000 troops encamped there suffered great hardships with hundreds dying from disease and exposure. Valley Forge is a National Park.

Answer: Losing secret papers to the enemy could have serious consequences.

Explanation:

The central idea here is that when secret papers are lost to the enemy, they could have serious consequences. This is why the both the British and the Americans tried to capture riders conveying messages for the other side so that they could get the messages.

If these messages were found, they could help in the war effort by implicating spies such as George Higday who would be put to death should evidence be found of their treachery. This would be good for the side that was being spied on as less information would be leaked and bad for the other side as they will have less information to act on.
