special Orders, No. l.
The acting commandant of cadets
las forwarded to the superintendent
charges against cadets Here follow
be names of the thirty six cadets pub
lished yesterday.
For violation of paragraphs 157 and
l5S of the regulations on the night Of
December 3lst, 1898
The facts which fully and clearly es-
rablish the charges are admitted,
without qualification, by cadets charg.
3D. The regulations prescribed and
definitely fix the penalty.
The gravamen of the offence is not
ii the acts perpetrated, but in the mu-
tinous com binstion upon the part Of
he cadets implicated, TO disregard,
defy and trample upon authority and
discipline, and this in the face of admo-
lition, warning and appeals upon the
part of the Board of Visitors and the
officers Immediately responsible for
maintenance of discipline.
The past record of the accused, with
few exceptions, has been good, but
this cannot condone conduct subver-
aive of the essential basis of discipline
obedience, subordination and respect
for regulations and authority.
The conduct charged was not the re-
suit of hssty impulse, but Wa wiliully
and deliberately premeditated and car
red out in entire disregard OF admo
nition and advice given after the COM
0ination was entered into and before
its purposes were executed. when there
was full time and opportunity TO re-
cede from reck lessly false position.
But in spite of every warning and in
fuence that kindly regard for the
cadets themselves could suggest, there
was unyielding persistence.
1t only remains 10 the superintend-
ent to perform the most painiu! duty OF
his official lie, 10 execute The decree of
the regulations, in accordance with
which decree, the cadets herein named
are dismissed, and their connection
with the Virginia Military Institute
terminates with this date.
By command of Brigadier General
Shipp, superintendent.
