Such was the reputation he sustai. ned, that even when the moat violent an tipathies against royalism swayed the cotton iy , it was still admitted on all hands, that farmer Stedman, thonzh it to ry, was honest in his opinions, and firmly believed them to be right. "The time came when Burgoyne was advancing from thin north. It was a time a great anxiety, with both the friends and tees of the revolution, and one which cal led forth their highest exertions.

To their astoo. ishment Stedman utterly refused to leave the prison. In vr,in they expostulated . with him; in vain they represented to him that his lite was at stake.

Finding it altogether fruitless to. ' attempt to move him, his friends left him with some exprs,sians of spleen. "The time at length arrived for the trial of the prisoner.
