Excerpt from Letter: To the Right Honorable William E. Gladstone, M. P

But, long before you left office, the Foreign Enlistment Bill was passed. For that measure you are responsible. For the blunders or over zeal of every person who honourably endeavoured to make it an effective measure, it requires some gentle casu istry to prove that you can ever escape. There is one person for whose acts you are especially respon sible, by every rule of British administration, by every precedent sanctioned by the authority of Par liament, by every usage which obtains amongst high minded and honourable men: that person is the humble individual who ventures to call you to account, and whose every act, in reference to the Foreign Legion, was done under the authority of instructions issued by the Government of which you were a member.
