Answer:

A. After the battle, Abigail Adams went to the White House chapel to say a prayer of thanksgiving.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Battle of Saratoga was the final battle of the Saratoga campaign and marked a decisive victory for the American troops. The British plan was to lead their forces southward, northward, and eastward surrounding the American troops. The only British force that arrived was the one lead by General Burgoyne from the south but he saw his troops superated. General Gates is credited with the victory and the winning against them made the French support the American cause.

The false statement is the A because after the battle Abigail Adams, wife of John Adams the United States president, write a letter to his husband celebrating the victory.

I hope this answer helps you.
