Caton strode toward him, his face white with passion. "Let him have it his way," I called after him, for now my own blood was up, "I shall not be guilty of such neglect again." He did not heed me, perhaps he did not hear. "Major Brennan," he said, facing him, his voice trembling with feeling, "I tell you Captain Wayne purposely shot in the air.
