Thus Arnold, in his zeal, did not content himself with betraying his own post, but was fain to communicate to the enemy all the vital intelligence in his possession. As related by Mr. Conch, the capturing party took Andre to the nearest American post, in the Town of North Castle, where Lieutenant-Colonel Jameson was in command. This officer, though brave and honest, seems to have possessed none too much intelligence, and, moreover, was easily hoodwinked by the courtly Andre. He examined the papers, and sent them by messenger to Washington; but harboring no suspicion against Arnold, he not only wrote a letter to that genera] describing the capture, bat at the same time turned over the prisoner to Lieutenant Allen, who was to bear the letter, instructing him to deliver Andre to Arnold! But, very fortunately, attached to Jameson's comwas duty, who on Benjamin Major mand, but at the Tallmadge, time was absent soon afterward returned to the camp; and, being informed by Jameson of what he had done, urgently advised that the prisoner be brought back. Jameson consented, but permitted the message to go to Arnold, it was next decided to send the captive (whose real identity was not yet known) to Lower Salem (now Lewisboro), a place farther within the American lines than North Castle, and therefore more secure, and have him held there until Washington should be heard from. This was accordingly done early on the morning of the 24th, Tallmadge being in command of the escort; and indeed from that day until Andre was hung he remained with the prisoner. Arrived at Lower Salem, the supposed Anderson was installed in "Squire" Gilbert's farmhous< -- a dwelling which was torn down about a quarter of a century ago, unsuccessful efforts having been made by the late Hon. .John Jay to have it permanently preserved as a Revolutionary relic.
