private houses or private property of any

war and regulations of the army provide
ample means for restraining them to the
full extent required for disci pine and eff,
fcioncy. Soldiers were called into the
field to do battle against the enemy, and
it is not expected that their force and
energy shall be wasted in the protection
of private property Of those mos. hostile

in this army shall hereafter be employed
iu such service.
