The men who have fought the battle of their king and country, and have either fallen or been invalided have rendered; at supreme personal sacrifice, a service of the very greatest value to their countrymen, and the latter owe it as much to themselves as to the brave soldiers of liberty and justice, some of whom, alas, are for over lost to them to do everything in their power to mitigate the sufferings both of the survivors and of the bereaved families. But there are two facts which we cannot permit ourselves to overlook.
