He said Meirs Powells testimony In
support of his affidavit filed with the

discharged in order that discipline
might be enforced.
The majority of the inmates of the

spiracy, which eliminated about the

last summer, and the witness asserted
II was for that reason there were many
more cases of dishonorable discharges
than usual at that time. Colonel Smith

stances the more money pensioner re-
ceived the more liquor he drank. He
offered to show the papers accounting
for every cent involved in the admins
