and distribute such contribution of money food clio

lief of the prisoners. further propose that these
surgeons shall be selected by their Government
and that they shall have full liberty at any and all
times through the agents of exchange, to make re-
ports not only of their accounts but of any mat
ter relating to'the welfare of the prisoners.
