Deputy Paul Bonin

"I don't know what you're going to say when you go back in there. But tell them he was the bravest man in that room today." (31.90)
Paul is talking about the fact that most of the men in the room where Jefferson was executed were frightened, but that Jefferson stayed brave. Fear is a pretty understandable reaction to the prospect of death (brrrr), and so Jefferson's lack of fear is super commendable.
