He accord- ingly called the guard and requested him to send word to the general that he desired an interview. Harmar, in response to Weitzel's message, came to see him. The prisoner admitted, without hesitation, although without the slightest bravado, that he had shot an Indian. In very plain language he told the general his motives, and asked him what he intended to do. General Harmar replied that the military law would have to take its course. The punishment for so grave an offense, he said, ...was summary, and execution would probably be the result. At this information, Weitzel told his visitor that he had often braved death in a thousand terrible shapes.

But, he asserted, although he knew nothing of fear, and would scorn to beg for his life, he still had some- thing of pride in his nature.
