Greetings and Salutations to All my Kith and Kin and All the Ships in Outer Space: Two hundred and thirty-three years ago, on 22 September 1776, Captain Nathan Hale, a schoolmaster from Coventry, Connecticut, who had graduated from Yale College, and then joined the Continental Army, was hanged by the British as a spy. His famous last words were: "I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country." Thank you. Official Bard of Clan Henderson Washington, D.C. 20011-8400 NOTE: "My unpopular and controversial personal opinions are independent of my Scottish clan." |
