The Trial of Benny Arnold

Arnold's enemies finally had enough to take to congress and demand that he be brought up on charges. The various charges levied against him went all the way back to his early days up in canada. In the end, arnold's record outshone his reputation, and he was cleared of all but two small charges. This was mostly a vindication, but it left him on the hook to the congress for a thousand uncounted four pounds. And that pretty much sealed the deal for benedict arnold, these unseemly charges.
