1t was early dawn on Sunday morn
ing, Sept. 22 1776, that our young hero
was hurried away from the tent of the
English officer to the gallows. The spot
selected was the orchard of Colonel
Henry Rutgers, on East Broadway, not
far above what is now Franklin square.
A crowd had gathered, many of whom
afterward bore witness to the noble
bearing of the young hero, and to the
barbarity with which he was treated
by the provost marshal. This official
said; 1.-THE rebels shall never know they
have a man who can die with such
firmness."
AS Hale was about to ascend the fatal
scaffold, he stood moment looking up
on the detachment of British soldiers,
and the crowd standing about; and the
words that came from his loyal young
heart In that supreme moment will
never die: II only regret that 1 have
but one life to lose for my country"
1t is not known in what spot his body
was laid, but the bones of the young
patriot crumbled to dust In the heart Of
the great metropolis Of the republic he
helped to found.

liberty Is remembered, so long will the
name Of Nathan Hale shine with pure

larger force than any which had be-
fore landed upon our shores.
You know the story of the disastrous
battle upon Long Island-where the few
thousand ill-clothed, undisciplined pro-
vincial troops faced splendidly
equipped army, many regiments Of
which were veterans. The raw Ameri-
can troops, despite their courage and
heroism, were no match for the trained
and skilled soldiery of Great Britain;
and even General Washington, un-
demonstrative and reserved as he was,
Is said to have wrung his hands In
anguish upon seeing his troops defeated
and driven back, he being powerless to
aid them.
After the disastrous battle Of Long
Island, Washington sorely needed infor-
nation Of the strength and probable
movements of the powerful enemy. He
deemed 1t necessary that some skilled
soldier should go, as spy, within the
British lines, and procure for him the
knowledge so much desired, that he
might be warned in ample time"
Captain Nathan Hale, a brilliant
young officer belonging to "Knowlton's
Rangers" calmly decided 1t was his
duty to undertake the enterprise upon
which the fate of the detected little
army seemed to depend. His friends
sought In vain to dissuade him from his
purpose. II desire to be useful" was his
reply; his only thought seemed to be
to serve his country.
The young officer presented himself
to General Washington as a volunteer
for the dangerous service, was accept
ed, received his instructions and dis
appeared from camp.
He passed up the Connecticut shore,
disguised himself as a schoolmaster
and landed upon Long Island. He visit
ed all the British camps upon Long
Island and in New York, and made
drawings of the Notifications, writing
his observations in Latin. and hiding
them between the soles of his shoes.
He had been about two weeks within
the British lines, had accomplished his
purpose and was waiting upon the
shore at Huntington, Long Island, for
a boat that was to convey him to Con-
necticut, when he was captured-hav-
ing been recognized a few hours previ-

aboard a British man-of-war, and car
ried to Sir William Howe's headquar-
ters in New York city. Here he was con-
demned to be executed at sunrise on the
