#RIPJohnAndre #AndreHill #RevWar #Tappan #TenDaysofInfamy
#JohnAndre ‘s head and footstones on #AndreHill were not inscribed initially... laid unmarked for many yrs; fell victim to vandals quite a few times over the (at one point disappeared in 1850.) #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
The last surviving witness to #JohnAndre ‘s execution, Pierre Besançon (came with Lafayette), died in 1855. #RevWar #AndreHill #TenDaysofInfamy
Wait of a half hour, the rope was cut & #JohnAndre ‘s body was taken down & wrapped in shroud; his uniform was handed to Laune, his servant. He was buried near the gallows until 1821. #RevWar #AndreHill #TenDaysofInfamy
Songs played during the procession to #AndreHill : Bluebird & Rosalin Castle; Col. Scammell read the execution order out loud; #JohnAndre gives his hat and watch to his servant, Laune. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 : #JohnAndre ate breakfast 8am. Shaved, dressed, packed 2 trunks; infamously sketches himself & gives that to Ensign Tomlinson; He is executed at noon, his three captors, present. The streets of #Tappan filled with roughly 500 troops. #AndreHill #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 : #JohnAndre writes #GeorgeWashington asking to be shot not hanged; #Hamilton urged GW to comply... Execution postponed just shy of 5pm which brings Laune, Andre’s servant to tears. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 cont’d : #JohnAndre wears the clothes he was captured in to his trial, presents his own defense; resumes his British uniform afterwards. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy #Tappan
#OTD1780 : #JohnAndre stands in front of Court Martial; states (1) he did not come ashore with a flag of truce, nor did he (2) consider himself under a flags protection. (3) He acted as a British Officer not as an individual. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy #Tappan
#OTD1780 : In a heavy evening rain, #JohnAndre is escorted to Robinson House ( #BenedictArnold ‘s #WestPoint HQ, which he just fled from the day before.) ; accomplice #JoshuaHettSmith was arrested late last night in Fishkill,NY for his role in the plot. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 : #BenTallmadge stops the overnight #JohnAndre escort to #BenedictArnold ... they return to Jamison’s HQ in Sands Mills, where the Col. will finally meet André around 8am (this am.) They proceed to Col. Sheldon’s HQ in South Salem. #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 : #JohnAndre is captured between 9:30-11am around Tarrytown; He’s eventually taken to Col. Jamison’s HQ (once it’s located!). Jamison will send him to #BenedictArnold around 5pm (but this will be short lived!!!) #RevWar #TenDaysofInfamy
#OTD1780 : #JohnAndre will spend ALL DAY on the Vulture waiting for #BenedictArnold ; Arnold will go back to his #WestPoint HQ w. Peggy (failed to procure a boat, blame will be passed around later!) #TenDaysofInfamy #RevWar
Good morning history friends & André companions!! 🥰
Continuing with tradition, I will be commencing our #TenDaysofInfamy countdown here end of this week - as we follow #JohnAndre thru his fateful meeting with #BenedictArnold , capture, & execution. So stay tuned ❤️🙏🏻 #RevWar
Once the guard withdrew, the crowd was allowed to come forward & gaze at the “darling of the British Army.” #JohnAndre ‘s body was wrapped in shroud & buried near the gallows. #TenDaysOfInfamy #RIPAndre1780 #RevWar
The 3 men credited with #JohnAndre ‘s Capture were present at his execution; his body oscillated for possibly a half hr; those gathered remained silent. Once cut down, his uniform was handed to Laune. #TenDaysOfInfamy #RIPAndre1780 #RevWar
When it was ordered that his hands be tied, #JohnAndre removed the one handkerchief from his eyes to be used, then got a second one to replace one over his eyes. #TenDaysOfInfamy #RIPAndre1780 #RevWar
#JohnAndre removed his hat & watch, gave them to his servant, Laune; pulled a white neckcloth from his coat pocket - unbuttoned his shirt collar - placed the noose over his head - blindfolded himself. #TenDaysOfInfamy #RevWar #RIPAndre1780
