troops that they are not permitted to
commander anything whatsoever and
that this privilege is. only allowed to
officers in accordance with the neces-
sites of military occupation.
Anything the soldiers need they
must buy, the geenral's proclamation
recites and he strictly forbids the SOL
diers from breaking into shops or mis-
using their might. Antwerp, he says,
was only surrendered on the under
standing that the troops would not
misuse their power.

whether General Leman, the defender
