EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN / have been
asked by some of the members Of the Veteran
Association OF the District of Columbia the
cause of the Veterans Of the Washington Light
Infantry not participating with us in the cele-
bration of the twenty.fifth anniversary of our
muster.in in defense Of our country simply
answer that one of its prominent members had
given me his reason, Us was published in your
paper Of Monday, April 8, In reference TO the
g. A. T.. When said this had no idea that
1t would be published. Had l known that II
would find Its way into public print / might
have more fully explained the conversation
with that prominent member. However |
beg to say that the expression used by that
prominent member abont the Grand Army OF
the Republic Whom all patriotic citizens of
this great country honor are the feelings OF
one man only, whom ], at that time, took to
be their representative, But happily see
such are not the sentiments of the Veterans Of
the Light Infantry, but only of one man In It,.
Trusting that this will allay all bad feeling
which may have been engcndered by the I'M
fortunate publication. am, &C.,

Just received the message OF the president OF

counter at place called Tiopar, In the Bavis
mountains, with about 200 Indians commanded
by foreign officers and had killed five persons,
among them their captain Capt. Crawiordl.
ION our side several persons were also killed
and wounded. Among the former were the major

United States that the killing of Capt Crawford
in said encounter had been intentionally
caused by our troops as they the papersl assert
that they 0he Mexican troops fred against the
officers OF the United States army knowingly
Public opinion was somewhat excited In
both countries on account of this incident, and
the TWO governments were compelled TO order
careful investigation of the facts. For my
part, and taking into consideration what has
been nscertained up to the present time, have
troops thought that they were fighting the hos.
tile Indians, because they were following the
track OF the savages, and OF the cattle which
they had stolen-besides other crimes that they
had committeeman they could not possibly
imagine that said Indians had been Joined by
others OF similar aspect, and among whom
were very few soldiers or officers of the United
States.
1.-THE killing of the courageous and deserving
officers and citizens OF both countries Is n very
lamentable affair, but our troops, which were
composed Of citizens Of the state of Chihuahua,
VIII always have the excuse that they could
not take as friends the Indians who wcr1 in

lies can pass reciprocally the boundary line
