Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of Capt. Nathan Hale: The Martyr Spy of the Revolution; Dedicated to the Soldiers of the U. S. Army The business of the spy, though necessary in war, is one held in little honor, and the history is a brief one. If successful, nothing more is said; if he fail, and is detected, the penalty of death is at once inflicted, and the story is ended. Doubtless, in our revolution, as in all wars, many spies were employed - but when, or where, or how has never been recorded. The one spy, who made a mark in our annals, was Andre, the Englishman; the man chosen to communicate with Arnold, the traitor. Many circumstances combined to invest his fate with interest, and to make even his enemies regret the necessity which, in time of war, leaves for the spy no sentence but death.
