[Philadelphia, about the treachery of Benedict Arnold] . . .
The effigy of this ingrate is therefore hanged (for want of
his body) as a traitor to his native country, and a betrayer
of the laws of honor.
  The procession began about four o'clock, in the following
order:  Several gentlemen mounted on horseback, a line of
continental officers, sundry gentlemen in a line, a guard of
city infantry.  Just before the cart, drums and fifes,
playing the Rogue's March, guards on each side.
