You Most bear in mind 414 this
practieally fmtilent War. • We hear
next to nothing of the prowess of
individual regiments.. And yet the
„British army has fought s,s never
'army' taught before., The fighting
at the Bloody Ange in the great
American Civil War was assuredly,
tory which -the troops so
tenaciously hold. Battalions of
fam,ous. British ' regiments that went
into battle a thousand and edd
strong have, come out each eora-
mended by a junior lieutenant; and
his proud pommand has been the
merest handful of men. •
