John Jay, American statesman, from a print published in 1783, (c1880).Artist: Whymper
John Jay, American statesman, from a print published in 1783, (c1880). One of the Founding Fathers of the United States, Jay (1745-1829) was President of the Continental Congress from 1778-1779 and, together with Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, was one of the authors of The Federalist Papers. From 1789-1795 he served as the first Chief Justice of the United States. Jay then became Governor of New York, as which he was a prominent opponent of slavery, overseeing the passing of emancipation legislation in the state in 1799.

Benedict Arnold viewing the destruction of New London, 1781 (c1880). Arnold (1741-1801) fought for the American Continental Army from the outbreak of the War of Independence in 1775. He became one of its most effective generals, distinguishing himself at the Battle of Saratoga. He switched over to the side of the British in 1780 after becoming disillusioned at being passed over for promotion and at the alliance of the Americans with the French. In September 1781 forces under his command attacked and burned the port of New London, Connecticut.

Escape of Benedict Arnold, 1780 (c1880)
Escape of Benedict Arnold, 1780 (c1880). Arnold (1741-1801) fought for the American Continental Army from the outbreak of the War of Independence in 1775, becoming one of its most effective generals, distinguishing himself at the Battle of Saratoga. He switched over to the side of the British in 1780 after becoming disillusioned at being passed over for promotion and at the alliance of the Americans with the French. He supplied the British with information about American troop dispositions and, after being given command of the fort at West Point, New York, proposed to surrender it to the British in return for £20, 000 and a Brigadier's commission. He was forced to flee before carrying out his plan after his go-between with the British, Major John Andre, was captured.
