Excerpt from The Magazine of American History With Notes and Queries, Vol. 4 He pleaded in justification of himself that he had been only acting under the orders of General Arnold, and that, if anything was wrong, he was responsible. Sir, answered Washington, do you know that General Arnold has ed, and that Mr. Anderson, whom you have piloted through our lines, p1;oves to be Major John Andre, the adjutant-general of the British army, now our prisoner? I expect him here under a guard of one hundred horse, to meet h'is fate as a spy, and unless you confess who were your accomplices, I shall suspend you both on yonder tree 1 pointing to a tree before the door. He then, says Smith, ordered the guards to take me away. About two hours after this Smith said he heard the sound of horses' hoofs, and, soon after, the voice of Andre mingling with those of Washington and others, but here Smith was altogether wrong. Washington saw Major Tallmadge, and asked him many questions, but he declined to see the British adjutant-general, and Tallmadge always believed that, incredible as it may appear, Washington and Andre never saw each other. The most famous of Washington's biographers thinks that the reason why the General refused to see Andre was apparently from a strong idea of his moral obliquity, deduced from the nature of the very nefarious business in which he had been engaged, and the circumstances under which he was taken. But in truth this theory is hardly tenable, at least it is not reconcilable with the sentiments regarding. Andre afterwards expressed by the American Commander. It is more reasonable to sup pose that Washington's course in the matter was actuated by a nice sense of the etiquette of his position, rather than by any personal enmity to the man. The interview of James, II. And the Duke of Monmouth has been cited by General Charles J. Biddle, in his elaborate review of Andre's case, as containing within itself what seems to be the real explanation.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
