that requires consideration and prob

In making tho announccmoat,

declared that the war has demon

long ago by Great Britain and which
were better suited "to the armies OF

"The commanding officer has been

is a model OF discipline, but an accused

That q soldier in our army should
have less legal protection, challenges
the attention OF the lawyers Of the
