Enoch Crosy—Putnam County’s Underrated (& Much-Abused) Rev War SpyHinzugefügt:
During the trying times of the American Revolution, what if you, as a patriot, happened upon what was called a Tory nest and were told, "Pretend you're still in that Tory nest and we'll make sure you have free passage away after you reveal the location [music] of that nest." Even after all of those promises, what happened to Enoch Crosby? He got beaten and left for dead. First by Tories, then by American patriots who thought that he was a real Tory. That's what happened.
