He
keeps
the
letter
,
then
,
while
he
releases
the
messenger
!
"
"
Ay
,
that
does
he
,
and
all
for
the
sake
of
what
you
call
your
'
bonhommie
,
'
I
would
venture
,
if
the
truth
was
known
,
the
fellow
's
grandfather
taught
the
noble
science
of
dancing
.
"
"
But
what
says
the
scout
?
he
has
eyes
and
ears
,
and
a
tongue
:
what
verbal
report
does
he
make
?
"
"
O
!
sir
,
he
is
not
wanting
in
natural
organs
,
and
he
is
free
to
tell
all
that
he
has
seen
and
heard
.
The
whole
amount
is
this
:
there
is
a
fort
of
his
majesty
's
on
the
banks
of
the
Hudson
,
called
Edward
,
in
honor
of
his
gracious
highness
of
York
,
you
'll
know
;
and
it
is
well
filled
with
armed
men
,
as
such
a
work
should
be
.
"
"
But
was
there
no
movement
,
no
signs
of
any
intention
to
advance
to
our
relief
?
"
"
There
were
the
morning
and
evening
parades
;
and
when
one
of
the
provincial
loons
--
you
'll
know
,
Duncan
,
you
're
half
a
Scotsman
yourself
--
when
one
of
them
dropped
his
powder
over
his
porretch
,
if
it
touched
the
coals
,
it
just
burnt
!
"
Then
suddenly
changing
his
bitter
,
ironical
manner
,
to
one
more
grave
and
thoughtful
,
he
continued
;
"
and
yet
there
might
,
and
must
be
,
something
in
that
letter
which
it
would
be
well
to
know
!
"
"
Our
decision
should
be
speedy
,
"
said
Duncan
,
gladly
availing
himself
of
this
change
of
humor
,
to
press
the
more
important
objects
of
their
interview
;
"
I
can
not
conceal
from
you
,
sir
,
that
the
camp
will
not
be
much
longer
tenable
;
and
I
am
sorry
to
add
,
that
things
appear
no
better
in
the
fort
;
more
than
half
the
guns
are
bursted
.
"
"
And
how
should
it
be
otherwise
?
Some
were
fished
from
the
bottom
of
the
lake
;
some
have
been
rusting
in
the
woods
since
the
discovery
of
the
country
;
and
some
were
never
guns
at
all
--
mere
privateersmen
's
playthings
!
Do
you
think
,
sir
,
you
can
have
Woolwich
Warren
in
the
midst
of
a
wilderness
,
three
thousand
miles
from
Great
Britain
!
"
"
The
walls
are
crumbling
about
our
ears
,
and
provisions
begin
to
fail
us
,
"
continued
Heyward
,
without
regarding
this
new
burst
of
indignation
;
"
even
the
men
show
signs
of
discontent
and
alarm
.
"
"
Major
Heyward
,
"
said
Munro
,
turning
to
his
youthful
associate
with
the
dignity
of
his
years
and
superior
rank
;
"
I
should
have
served
his
majesty
for
half
a
century
,
and
earned
these
gray
hairs
,
in
vain
,
were
I
ignorant
of
all
you
say
,
and
of
the
pressing
nature
of
our
circumstances
;
still
,
there
is
everything
due
to
the
honor
of
the
king
's
arms
and
something
to
ourselves
.
While
there
is
hope
of
succor
,
this
fortress
will
I
defend
,
though
it
be
to
be
done
with
pebbles
gathered
on
the
lake
shore
.
It
is
a
sight
of
the
letter
,
therefore
,
that
we
want
,
that
we
may
know
the
intentions
of
the
man
the
Earl
of
Loudon
has
left
among
us
as
his
substitute
.
