'''Benedict Arnold''' (1741 – 1801) was the major general at West Point.

In 1780, [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] was asked by [[George Washington]] to expose a rumored plot to overthrow West Point. Ratonhnhaké:ton worked undercover for Arnold, while flushing out the British spies.

Investigating the major general, Ratonhnhaké:ton soon eavesdropped on Benedict Arnold as he was discussing plans for the British to take over the fort with John Anderson. Once the conversation had ended Benedict went back to the fort while his associate met up with redcoats to acquire a uniform. Anderson then came back to the fort but was caught when Ratonhnhaké:ton stopped two colonials from killing him. Ratonhnhaké:ton then pulled out a note revealing the plans for a sum of twenty thousand pounds to go to Benedict for the fort at West Point.

Not knowing he was compromised, Benedict awaited for Anderson's return and also for the regulars to arrive with his money. Ratonhnhaké:ton got back first and exposed Arnold for the traitor he was, right then the regulars arrived and Benedict fled the fort while the British began their assault on the fort. Once the assault ended Ratonhnhaké:ton failed to reach Arnold as he had sailed away from West Point. Ultimately, Benedict Arnold had defected to the British not long after assumed being a general in the British Army.

In all this event put the colonials in an uneasy position where they soon began to question loyalty with the troops and officers.
