The Halifax Papers. in recording the
death Of the late Sir John Harvey. who
was at the battle of Lundy's Lane. relate
the following incident: -a
"At the battle of Stony Creek the A.
mcrlcans were defeated; but Sir John
narrowly escaped being shot. An Amer
lean rlflleman wasjust presenting deadly
aim at his commanding figure, when a
sword struck aside the fire lock with this
xpression,-'Don't shoot that British Of
ficer; he is preventing the shedding of
blood" Sir John was riding among the
eombatans, attempting to stop the car
mage. The officer who struck aside the
rife was Gen. Scott. and the occurrence
led to the great friendship which after
wards existed between the two veterans"
