thus cNpatlaies on the question:
We are none OF those who would be delighted at
bloody struggle between tie United States and Eng
land. Doubtless France has no reason of late to wish
well to the American Government Republics have
often been accused Of ingraiiiude The United States
IN their relations with the French Government, have
not always proved the adage to be false. Neither
should we have any reason TO be afflicted at the losses

which appear by subsequent report of survey, be
equal TO the loss OF limb The document then goes
on TO propose pension Of five shiings day for life

must strike you rather singular that though the ser
vices OF this officer were rendered in the winter Of
1881 yet nothing is done for him until the 9th of
March, 1910 A delay Of three years is certainly
curious, II not a suspicious circumstance.
