In 1875, a British officer resigned from his post just after learning of his regiment's plan to leave for Sudan as part of the conflict with the Mahdi. After this decision, his friends and fiancée sent him four white feathers, which symbolized cowardice. To redeem his honor, he disguised himself as an Arab and secretly saved the lives of those who had called him a coward.
