I want to know the answer to the following question:
Who was Governor of Virginia in 1781
All the background I'm provided with is that "The latter motive proved to be in vain, and in 1781, under the command of Benedict Arnold, Richmond was burned by British troops, causing Governor Thomas Jefferson to flee as the Virginia militia, led by Sampson Mathews, defended the city.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
