2341 - L Dec. 7; ed: 2/1 - A paper contributed and read by E. B. Elliot
of Washington before the British association for the promotion of science
disproves assertions that this war has cost more lives than any other. Sta-
tistics showing the mortality rate of the Mexican, the Crimean, and
the Peninsular wars prove this fact.
"The differences are chiefly due to the better care taken of our
soldiers in Camp and Hospitals." - (4)
