"The sentence is factual in its context, Paul not not set out to get captured and warn the British."
Of course he didn't. After being captured and asked at gun point for information, he told the British that there would be 500 Americans waiting for them as the result of his efforts. He was likely giving misinformation to cause them to pause. You just do not WARN the enemy in a time of war!!!! All of this spin about him "warning" the British is making an American hero look like a traitor!
