The new duties undertaken by Spain
In Africa necessitate the organization or

correspondents, such as Senior Rivera OF
the Impartial, of cavalrymen who do not
know how to charge and artillerymen
who are learning to handle their guns

The royal decree signed by the king 10
designed to remedy this state OF things.
