O. C. 98th Canadian Siege Battery, C.E.F., C\o Army Post Office., London Eng. , July 13th, 1916.
To Mr. Theodore Lantz, Charlottetown, P.E. Island, Canada.
Dear Mr. Lantz,
It is with most heartfelt sorrow that I write to you regarding the death of your son Walter, who was killed this afternoon at 12.05 o'clock. An enemy shell, High Explosive, burst quite close to him where he was eating his dinner with seven other men, a piece of which hit him exactly in the middle of the forehead; he died instantly, falling into the arms of his comrade Pope Beer.
We prepared a casket for him from the rough materials at hand and his comrades carried him about 1 1\2 miles to a pretty little cemetery near a village, the name of which I will tell you later. A Church of England Minister named S.M. Morgan of the 64th Infantry Bridgade performed the last ceremony and after the grave was filled in the boys placed flowers all over it. We put a cross at the head on which the following inscription was painted:
92921-Gr. W.J. Lantz, 98th C.S.B. Killed in Action, July 12th, 1916.
Above the inscription we put the ensign of the Masons, also that of the Shriners. It was with very sad hearts indeed that we watched his body being lowered into the grave.
I was going to say that he was the best man in the Battery, but I have so many good men that it is very hard to be the best, but he certainly was one of the very few best.
He being Mr. Hooper's Assistant his duties took him into many dangers through which he passed without a scratch and it seems doubly hard that he should be killed practically by accident, as it was only a matter of the odd shell coming in at the moment when it would do the most damage.
We have been six weeks under fire during which time hundreds of hair breadth escapes have occurred, but to-day is the first real casualties we have had, and that they were so fatal makes it harder to bear, but there is one thing Mr. Lantz I want you always to remember "this boy lived a man's life since he came to me, and he died a man's death," what more can we ask ?
May God bless you and your family and help you in your dark hour of trial is the sincere wish of all your friends here.
To Mr. Theodore Lantz, Yours Sincerely, W.B. Prowse, Major. Commanding 98th Canadian Siege Battery.

# United States v. Sweet (399 U.S. 517)/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Per Curiam Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
399 U.S. 517
UNITED STATES v. Paul E. SWEET.
On September 30, 1968, the District Court for the District of Columbia dismissed, 'with prejudice,' an indictment charging appellee Sweet with various crimes under the D.C.Code, on a finding that the Government had not acted promptly enough in bringing the case to trial. The United States appealed this dismissal pursuant to D.C.Code § 23-105 to the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. That court, without making any determination of its jurisdiction under § 23-105, certified the case to this Court pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3731, the Federal Criminal Appeals Act.
We conclude that certification under § 3731 was not proper in the circumstances of this case. Section 3731 provides in terms for certification only '(i)f an appeal shall be taken pursuant to this section to any court of appeals which, in the opinion of such court, should have been taken directly to the Supreme Court * * *.' (Emphasis added.) The Government's appeal to the Court of Appeals in this case was not pursuant to § 3731 but instead expressly pursuant to D.C.Code § 23-105, which contains no provision allowing transfer to this Court. Moreover, as noted earlier, it appears that the Court of Appeals has made no determination that it lacked jurisdiction to hear the Government's appeal under the broad terms of § 23-105, a statute that we previously held was unaffected in scope by the subsequent passage of the Criminal Appeals Act, United States v. Burroughs, 289 U.S. 159, 53 S.Ct. 574, 77 L.Ed. 1096 (1933).
Accordingly, we hold that transfer to this Court was inappropriate and we return the case to the Court of Appeals for further proceedings. It is so ordered.
Case returned to Court of Appeals.
Mr. Justice DOUGLAS dissents.
Mr. Justice MARSHALL took no part in the decision of this case.

# Vice Versa/Preface

There is an old story of a punctiliously polite Greek, who, while performing the funeral of an infant daughter, felt bound to make his excuses to the spectators for "bringing out such a ridiculously small corpse to so large a crowd."
The Author, although he trusts that the present production has more vitality than the Greek gentleman's child, still feels that in these days of philosophical fiction, metaphysical romance, and novels with a purpose, some apology may perhaps be needed for a tale which has the unambitious and frivolous aim of mere amusement.
However, he ventures to leave the tale to be its own apology, merely contenting himself with the entreaty that his little fish may be spared the rebuke that it is not a whale.
In submitting it with all possible respect to the Public, he conceives that no form of words he could devise would appeal so simply and powerfully to their feelings as that which he has ventured to adopt from a certain Anglo-Portuguese Phrase-Book of deserved popularity.
Like the compilers of that work, he—'expects then who the little book, for the care what he wrote him and her typographical corrections, will commend itself to the—British Paterfamilias—at which he dedicates him particularly.'

## New Book of Mormon

Our readers will probably recollect that some time ago, a notice of the finding of a bundle of brass plates, by Robert Wiley, son of James Wiley jr. merchant of this place, was published in the Quincy papers, and in the Warsaw Message.—These plates were found about eleven feet under the surface, of a long mound in the vicinity of Kinderhook, Pike County, Illinois. On removing the crust that had collected about them, hierogliphics were found engraved, the meaning of which no one was able to divine. They were sent to Jo. Smith, in order to get his opinion of their meaning. Jo had a fac smilie taken, and engraved on wood, and it now appears from the statement of a writer in the St. Louis Gazette, that he is busy in translating them. The new work which Jo. is about to issue as a translation of these plates will be nothing more nor less than a sequel to the Book of Mormon; corroborating it an all essential particulars, of course, Jo. knows about as much of the true nature and meaning of the characters on these plates as any other numscull; but still, he will no doubt produce a humbug sufficiently large to feed the gullibility of fools in all time to come.
The plates referred to above are now in Warsaw, in the possession of Mr. Wiley. They are about 2 inches in width at the top, and 3 at the bottom, and when found were tied together with a wire.
It appears by the statement of the Gazette's correspondent that Joe. has added an item to the facts in relation to the discovery of these plates. He says that Mr. Wiley had a dream three nights in succession, that in a certain mound were concealed treasures, which, by digging he might discover. This is all humbug, Mr. Wiley had no such dream—he dug in the mound merely for curiosity: being a student of Medicine he was desirous of finding bones, and these, and not the plates, were the objects of his research.
Beside this, the fac-similie which Jo. had taken, is not a correct copy of the plates, as any one may satisfy himself, who will call on Mr. Wiley and compare the two.

# What Will He Do With It? (Belford)/Book 7/Chapter 12

CHAPTER XII.
Another halt—Change of Horses—and a turn on the road.
Colonel Morley, on learning that Jasper declined a personal conference with himself, and that the proposal of an interview with Jasper's alleged daughter was equally scouted or put aside, became still more confirmed in his belief that Jasper had not yet been blessed with a daughter sufficiently artful to produce. And pleased to think that the sharper was thus unprovided with a means of anoyance, which, skilfully managed, might have been seriously harassing; and convinced that when Jasper found no farther notice taken of him, he himself would be compelled to petition for the terms he now rejected, the Colonel dryly informed Poole "that his interference was at an end; that if Mr. Losely, either through himself, or through Mr. Poole, or any one else, presumed to address Mr. Darrell direct, the offer previously made would be peremptorily and irrevocably withdrawn. I myself," added the Colonel, "shall be going abroad very shortly, for the rest of the summer; and should Mr. Losely, in the mean while, think better of a proposal which secures him from want, I refer him to Mr. Darrell's solicitor. To that proposal, according to your account of his destitution, he must come sooner or later; and I am glad to see that he has in yourself so judicious an adviser"—a compliment which by no means consoled the miserable Poole.
In the briefest words, Alban informed Darrell of his persuasion that Jasper was not only without evidence to support a daughter's claim, but that the daughter herself was still in that part of Virgil's Hades appropriated to souls that have not yet appeared upon the upper earth, and that Jasper himself, although holding back, as might be naturally expected, in the hope of conditions more to his taste, had only to be left quietly to his own meditations in order to recognize the advantages of emigrations. Another £100 a-year or so, it is true, he might bargain for, and such a demand might be worth conceding. But, on the whole, Alban congratulated Darrell upon the probability of hearing very little more of the son-in-law, and no more at all of the son-in-law's daughter.
​Darrell made no comment nor reply. A grateful look, a warm pressure of the hand, and, when the subject was changed, a clearer brow and livelier smile thanked the English Alban better than all words.

* Court Documents

* Opinion of the Court
* Concurring Opinion Blackmun
* Dissenting Opinion Burger
[p612] MR. JUSTICE BLACKMUN concurring in the result.
The conclusion the Court reaches has his anomalous aspects, for surely, as the District Court's findings make clear, today's decision in the Government's favor will tend to stultify Topco members' competition with the great and larger chains. The bigs, therefore, should find it easier to get bigger and, as a consequence, reality [p613] seems at odds with the public interest. The per se rule, however, now appears to be so firmly established by the Court that, at this late date, I could not oppose it. Relief, if any is to be forthcoming, apparently must be by way of legislation.
