Am spending my time very
pleasantly in reading and studying
“De Harts Military Law.” It is an
excellent work on the subject of
Military Jurisprudence and quite
indispensible to one who would
know the customs and practices
of our military courts.
Have also been studying a
very popular work on “military”
in which I find an excellent
account of the battle of Waterloo.
