aliment, when the adjutant, Captain Codd, ordered the call „.,"
to Do sounded on the bugle, which instrument had been ewe
used for the occasion previous to the introduction of the EL
cornet. Major G. R. Stevenson (who is also a magistrate Bt.l
of the county, of the Cranbrook division) then asked whohad Pt.
authorised this innovction, which led to a very loud eon- 1

were not just fi tble, and were exceedingly annoying to the set
captain, besides which the manner and action of the major 141
