However, if I am not mistaken, a recruiting party is to follow you." "Yes, Major." "Then, sir, you may report accordingly. And now for the other matters. General Clinton, in this letter, recommends that we speak very freely together. So I will be quite frank, gentlemen. The man you seek, Luther Kinnicut, is a spy whom our Committee of Safety maintains within the lines of the lower party.
Boyd looked up at Hays absently, and said: "Do you know Luther Kinnicut?" This time all the colour fled the man's face, and it was some moments before the sudden, unreasoning rush of terror in that bruised mind had subsided sufficiently for him to compose his thoughts.
Little by little, however, he came to himself again, dimly conscious that he trusted us perhaps the first strangers or even neighbours whom he had trusted in years. "Yes, sir, I know him," he said in a low voice. "Where is he?" "Below on our service." But it was Luther Kinnicut, the spy, whom we had come to interview, as well as to see Major Lockwood, and Boyd frowned thoughtfully.
"What is it, dear if we may know?" asked she, quite calmly. "Yes," he said, "you should know, Hannah. And it may not be true, but somehow, I think it is. Tarleton is out." "Is he headed this way, Ebenezer?" asked Mr. Hunt, after a shocked silence. "Why yes, so they say. Luther Kinnicut sends the warning. It seems to be true."
If it be necessary I can communicate with him, but it may take a week. Might I ask why you desire to question him so particularly?" Boyd said: "There is a Siwanois Indian, one Mayaro, a Sagamore, with whom we have need to speak. General Clinton believes that this man Kinnicut knows his whereabouts." "I believe so, too," said the Major smiling.
"There was a Sagamore," I said, "of the Siwanois, named Mayaro. We believe that Luther Kinnicut knows where this Sagamore is to be found. But how are we to first find Kinnicut?" "Sir," he said, "you must ask Major Lockwood that. I know not one Indian from the next, only that the savages hereabout are said to be favourable to our party." Clearly there was nothing more to learn from this man.
