The Patriot - Colonel Tavington Seeks Information on Benjamin Martin
Colonel William Tavington: [silence]
This town has given aid to Benjamin Martin and his rebels. I wish to know his whereabouts. So, anyone who comes forward may be forgiven their treason. Very well, you had your chance.
Hardwick:
Wait! This man gives Martin and his men supplies!
Peter Howard:
Quiet!
Hardwick:
He brings them to Black Swamp!
Anne Howard Martin:
He's a liar!
Peter Howard:
You damn fool!
Hardwick:
In the marsh, by the old Spanish mission!
Colonel William Tavington:
This man here?
Hardwick:
Yes.
Colonel William Tavington:
The Black Swamp, you say? By the old Spanish mission. Thank you very much. Shut the doors!
Hardwick:
But you said…we'd be forgiven!
Colonel William Tavington:
And indeed you may! But that's between you and God.
Captain Wilkins:
Ready to fire the town on your orders, sir.
Colonel William Tavington:
The town? Burn the church.
Captain Wilkins: [''Realizing'']
There's no honour in this.
Colonel William Tavington:
Didn't you say that all who stand against England deserve to die a traitor's death? Burn the church, Captain.
