attached ct the time OF his death. The
friends OF the Lieutenant did not under.
stand the position in which hs stood

special guardianship or care owe his
person. The Court, however, goes on
to csnsurs him for proceeding on his
reconnaissance without Q sufficient %.
cort and for hating and dismounting on
dangerous ground, acts which betrayed
. deplorable want OF military prudence.
The Court regrets that no attempt was
made by Lieutenant Curry to rally his

Lieutenant Curry sets up In his own de-
Tense that hs Wal not In charge OF the
