text_original: Colonel Clark folded the letter, addressed it, and turned gravely to Monsieur Bouton. "You will oblige me, sir," said he, "by taking this to Governor Hamilton. You will be provided with a flag of truce." Monsieur Bouton was a round little man, as his name suggested, and the men cheered him as he strode soberly up the street, a piece of sheeting tied to a sapling and flung over his shoulder.
