"Well," replied Major Coffin, at

Ana, turning to the soldier, who had
made the claim, he asked: "D0 you

The soldier moistened his lips and
glanced at his brother, and replied {:
"Yes, sir, 1t Is of my own free will,

Major Coffin found the affidavit and
tore It up, and then issued an order
transferring the soldier TO an active

After he had gone the visitor turned
to Major Coffin and said: "MajOr, I
