Consider was “a Revolutionary soldier, of whose skill at repartee many anecdotes are still [1831] told. As a specimen of his facetiousness it is related, that when the army were throwing up the breast workds at Roxbury, they struck upon the bones of an Indian burying ground: and Gen Heath said as he passed by, ‘let those men lie, we have soldiers enough.’ ‘But, (said Turner) if your honor pleases, we want officers.’ In 1777 he was taken prisoner by Burgoyne, at Ticonderoga, and was kept in the camp until the surrender. We have been informed by a fellow soldier of his, that he used to afford infinite amusement to the officers, and that the Gen. once said to him, ‘I shan’nt exchange you, Turner; I shall carry you home; the king wants a fool.’ When Burgoyne marched out with his army and surrendered, Turner took occasion to pass near the Gen. and say, ‘we sha’nt exchange your Honor, the People want a fool.’”53
