IN these two volumes I have got together the bulk
of the special correspondence and occasional articles written by me for the
Civil and Military Gazette and the Pioneer between 1887-1889. I have been
forced to this action by the enterprise of various publishers who, not
content with disinterring old newspaper work from the decent seclusion
of the office files, have in several instances seen fit to embellish
it with additions and interpolations.
