[Ans] Which American Revolutionary War figure was executed by the British for spying?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which American Revolutionary War figure was executed by the British for spying?"



On this day in 1776, Nathan Hale, a Connecticut schoolteacher and captain in the Continental Army, was executed by the British for spying. Disguised as a Dutch schoolmaster, Hale slipped behind British lines and successfully gathered information. Hale was captured while sailing Long Island Sound, trying to cross back into American-controlled territory. When it was discovered that he was carrying incriminating documents, British General William Howe ordered his execution for spying. After being led to the gallows, legend holds that the 21-year-old Hale said, “I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country.”
