Lord Laudcrdalc having seen Arnold
standing near the throne upon public
reception. in high favor. upon returning
to his place in the House, remarked
that however gracious might have been
the language he had heard from the
throne, his indignation could not but
have been highly excited at beholding
his majesty supported by a traitor
And it is reported of Lord Surrey, that
rising in his seat to address the House,
and seeing Arnold in the gallery, he i'm
mcdiately took his seat, and. pointing to
Arnold. exclaimed, l will not speak
while that man is in the House
At length, depressed aud treated with
contempt, Arnold took up his residence
in st. John, New Brunswick, where he
entered extensively into mercantile pur-
suits, and built large house upon King
street, which is still standing. and point
cd out as the house of the traitor Arnold.
But he was equally despised at St. John.
in part for his treason, but as much for
his dishonest practices. He owned the
first ship built in st. John, but it is al.
legged that he obtained it from til, un-
fortunate builder by fraud. His unpop-
ularity increased, till at length public O.
pinion forced him to leave the Province

I hese took fire in the night, and were
completely destroyed with their contents
Arnold was absent from the Province,
but the buildings and the merchandise
having been insured for more than their
value, and large portion of the mer-
chandise having been removed. as was
alleged suspicious were at once rife that
the buildings had been fired with Ar
nold's knowledge Upon this ground
the insurance was withheld but Arnold,
upon his return, recovered it in court
of law. But the verdict Of the Jury
did not satisfy the populace, and they
proceeded to burn the efhgy Of Arnold.

The Traitor in King street directly in
view of Arnold's house. The excitement
ran so high that the magistrates were
called upon, the riot act read, but with
out effect ; and as last resort, the mil
itary was called from the Fort to put a
stop to the proceedings. And the aged
people of St. John relate, that the mag
istratc and the soldiery were not very
alert, the one in reading the riot act, and
the other in charging upon the assembled
multitude
And it is not a little curious that at
the present time at St john where the
people are mostly descendants of the
refugceS, that the name of Arnold is
even in worse reputc than among our
own people. Soon after this public de-
monstralion of hatred on the part of the
people of st. John, Arnold left the Prov
incc, and probably returned to England;
where he died in obscurty on the l4th
of june, 1901, aged 81 years Farmers
