Circular No. 6S.-The following irtorpreta.
ton Of the second and third clauses of section
I'd of the Enrolment act, is published for the
infor nation and guidance OF officers OF this
Bureau, viz:
Second. "The only son liable to military duty
OF widow dependent upon his labor for sup
port"
The term only son commonly means that
there is but one son, hence the preston ssonly
SON liable TO military duty" means son
liable to military duty, where other sons, il
any, are not thus liable Thus, to make q good
claim for exemption under this clause, it must
be established, LIST, that the person drafted is
the only son liable TO military duty of a widow;
and ID, that the widow is dependent for sup
port upon this particular son.
The widow may have any number of sons
not liable to military duty as minors, over age,
or otherwise; but II she have one SON who is
liable and she is actually dependent upon that
son, he is exempt.
Taird. "The only SON Of aged or infirm
parents dependent upon his labor for support
This clause carries the same meaning of the
word only, making 1t synonymous with ors.
The same construction viii be placed upon
this as upon the second clause of this section.
To obtain exemption under this clause IL
will, therefore, b necessary to establish, fss,
that the aged or lnffrm parents have but one
SON liable to military duty; and I'd, that they
are dependent upon this particular SON for sup

THE DRAPT-WHO ARE DESERTERS
WAR DEPARTMENT,
Prorost Marshal Generals Office,

Washington, d: c., august 9, ls6s.
Circular, no. 61.-The following opinion OF
Col. Joseph Holt. Judge Advocate General,
with regard to men who have been drafted,
and who were abroad or at sea at the time OF
draft, is published for the Information and
guidance of officers of this Bureau, viz:
"The class Of persons, referred to, If deser-
tiers according to the letter of the statute are
not SO according to Its spirit, and should not be
80 treated by the Government. The drafted
men who are declared to be deserters for
having failed to report themselves for duty,
are those who have had actual personal notice,
or constructive notice, from lea wing a summons
At their last place OF residence, that they have
been drafted, and that their attendance at
the place OF rendezvous named is required.
1t is assumed that the constructive notice has
reached the parties, and hence they are de-
nouneed As deserters for not obeying it. Deser-
ton involves criminal intent, and a man can.
not, In the sense OF the Ia " or with any pro-
priety OF language, be held to have deserted a
service when he did not know he belonged to
ito have neglected n duty when he had no
means OF knowing that it had been imposed
upon him. The law would stultify itself
We're 1t to declare otherwise. Ignorance
OF the law excuses no man, but ignorance Of
facts always does. The law obliges no man to
do al impossible thing, nor can it on any prin-
eiple hold him responsible for not having done
it. When, therefore, a drafted man abroad
or at sea, or otherwise placed in such circum-
stances as to render it physically impossible
for him to have had knowledge Of the draft,
and Of his duty under it, he should not be ad-
vertised or treated as deserter. Such a step
would be cruel. and would shock that sense
OF public justice which all entertain. II such
persons, do not, without delay, report them
selves for duty after recei wing information that
they have been drafted, they should be arrested
as deserters. 1t will be for the Secretary of
War to determine how long the public interests
will permit the Government to wait for the re-
turn OF this class of persons. Internationally
the drafted men who do not within a reason
able tine return TO the country, SO as to enter
the service, should not be accepted as part Of
the quota OF troops due from the State TO which
they belong"
