How Great Britain met the in
surrection and the Irish resisted it
are emphasized in the findings as
indicative of which side is t.
blame.
Two kinds of "killings' have
characterized the Irish republican
warfare, according to the report
First, the casualties resulted from
the inn Feiners' attempts to OBJ
tain arms and ammunition in at

barracks and, second, the secret
executions" of spies, traitors ami
enemies of the Irish republic who
have been adjudged guilty by its
courts and sentenced to death 1t
is admitted that the accused new

Fem tribunals. Minor offenses
are punishable by sentencing the
guilty to enforced absence from
their home town and residence
for a stated period in an Gun
known locality" The commission
condmens the so-called legalized
killings.
Many instances of alleged afro
cities and wanton destruction Of
property by the British troops
are presented in the report but all
of these were testified to and
publicly reported at the time of
the hearings last winter. De-

Why Buried With Head to the West.
The usual posture of the dead Is
with the feet eastward and the head
toward the west-the fitting attitude
of those who look for their Lord,
Whose name is the East" and who
will come to judgment in the regions
Of the dawn suddenly. But it was
the ancient usage of the church that
the martyr, the bishop, the saint, and
even the priest, should occupy in their
sepulture position the reverse OF the
secular dead, and lie down with their
feet westward and their heads to the
rising sun. The position Of the crozier
and the cross on ancient sepulchers of
the clergy record and reveal this fact.
The doctrine suggested by such a
burial was that these mighty men
would be honored with. a first resur-
rection, and as their Master came on
from the East they were to arise and
follow the Lamb as he went; mas
much as they. with him. would adj
vance to the judgment Of the general
multitudes. the ancients and the saints
which were worthy to Judge and reign.
