Court-Martial

"Do you fear court-martial?" I asked. "Do you fear the loss of your commission, disgrace?"

"Such things would doubtless occur," said he, "if I issued the order for retreat."

"Do you pursue your course because you fear, otherwise, court-martial, or disgrace, or shame?"

The commanding officer of the guards had been killed early in the issuing forth from the vesting room. Thus, he did not survive to court-martial the young guardsman for his usurpation of authority, an authority which, however, he himself had failed to exercise, presumably because of an initial bewilderment and shock at the sudden concourse of events. Similarly, general charges, carrying penalties, sometimes severe, were not pressed against the young guardsman, possibly because of the success attending his initiative and its consequences.
