Nathan Hale was hung by the British in 1776 after being convicted of being a spy. Before he was hung, he uttered the words, "I only regret I have but one life to give for my country." This sculpture was erected in 1890 in City Hall Park, New York; it stands near where the actual Nathan Hale was thought to have been executed.
