The boys think that it is really neat that they have Adam Hibbs for their guardian. They come ashore and all the while, Matt is thinking that this guy has a LOT of courage. They come ashore and Adam is supposed to take care of them. Katie stirs a little and throws off one of the folds of the cape. Looking down, Matt thinks, "George Washington's cape!" Matt asks Adam Hibbs if he shouldn't make sure George Washington has his cape. Adam Hibbs says yes, Matt should go, but to hurry along and not to tarry.
Then Matt is mistaken for one of the soldiers. He tries to make it known that he's not, but it doesn't work. He receives a musket and is told to Go!
