Help me find one thing

[SIMIN]

Hi,

 

First, please excuse me for my poor English!

 

Around 1 year ago, I was browsing the CIA website http://www.cia.gov.

I found an article which I enjoyed it a lot.

It was something about first spy man of the US which was executed by British army, I think.

It was a real story of a man who was spying for the US and later, when British army caought him, before they kill him, he said one favor sentence:

 

Something like: "I am so sorry that I just have one life to give for my country".

 

Unfortunately, I don't remember the exact sentence, but I wanna have it and know his name so I can search Google and find his story and read it again.

I really love it :)

Anyone can help me?

Thanks.
