Excerpt from A Narrative of the Affair of Queenstown: In the War of 1812
TH E apology for this publication, if any is needed, may be found in that law of a soldier's nature, which prompts him to repel a base attack on the reputation of the brave and the deserving, in the same spirit with which he would meet an assault on a military post or position, which had been committed to his own special keeping. He flies irresistibly to the rescue of his com rade, when in danger, and he is always ready to thrust himself in, to receive any blow which he sees aimed at his beloved commander. The law Of resistance is all the stronger, when he finds himself worthy to be honoured with the personal notice Of the common ene my, and involved in a common peril with those with whom he stands in the relation Of an intimate military connection.
