Old Testament/Stories of Samuel, Saul and David (II Samuel 1:8ff)

. . . And he (Saul) said unto me, Who are you? And I answered him, I am an Amalekite. He said unto me again, Stand, I pray thee, upon me, and slay me: for anguish is come upon me, because my life is yet whole in me. So I stood upon him, and slew him, because I was sure that he could not live after that he was fallen: and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither unto my lord. Then David took hold on his clothes, and rent them; and likewise all the men that were with him: And they mourned, and wept, and fasted until even, for Saul, and for Jonathan his son, and for the people of the LORD, and for the house of Israel; because they were fallen by the sword. And David said unto the young man that told him, Who are you? And he answered, I am the son of a stranger, an Amalekite. And David said unto him, How was it that you were not afraid to stretch forth your hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?. . . .

What reward did David give the Amalekite who slew Saul?
