Chapter 13

In this chapter Henry's lies go even farther. While making his way to his rigment's campfire Wilson calls out to him. Wilson is standing gaurd. Henry tells Wilson that he was shot in the head, after his rigment left him. Wilson takes Henry to get his head looked at and the doctor says, "As if someone had hit you in the head with a club." Wilson tends to Henry every need. Wilson brings Henry some coffee and cares for Henry's head with a damp cloth. He also brings Henry a blanket while Henry drifts off to sleep.

If I was Henry I would feel really guilty. People are really getting hurt and risking thier lives, but Henry is lying because he doesn't want to be thought of as a coward. When somebody figures out that Henry is lying, a lot of people will be mad at him.

Question: How much longer is Henry going to lie about running away?
