Peggy Shippen 2: Why Did You Have a Locket of John Andre’s Hair?

In Part 2 of the 1802 phone conversation with Peggy Shippen she will explain why having a locket of John Andre’s hair was not proof of a romantic relationship.

She’ll also discuss the infamous invisible ink letter. Why was her writing written over the top of this treasonous document.

And lastly, when George Washington showed up to extract the truth about her involvement after her husband’s plan had been exposed, Peggy threw a fit and was hysterical. Was it real or was it an act giving her husband time to escape?

When so much is at stake, it’s hard to tell if someone is telling the truth. Yet, I challenged Peggy in so many ways and each time her answer is consistent with her story that she is innocent.

Start episode 2, join the conversation, and decide for yourself.
