Always one to pick a nit until it bleeds, that quote came from William Hull who was a friend of Nathan Hale, but was not present at his execution.
According to the diary of Captain Frederick Mackenzie who WAS present at Hale's execution, Hale's last words were “It is the duty of every good officer to obey any orders given him by his commander in chief.”
Which to me still qualifies as kick butt last words.
