ERRARE EST DIABOLICUM.
From the Indian author of an Anglo-vernacular text-book:—
"As the book had to go through the press in haste I am sorry to write to you that there are some printers' devils, especially in English spelling."
"Nelson himself being a Suckling on his mother's side."—Observer.
We cannot know too much about the early history of our heroes.
"Captain William Redmond, son of Mr. John Redmond, has been awarded the D.S.O. He was commanding in a fierce fight and was blown out of a shell hole, sustaining a sprained knee and ankle. He rallied his men, and by promptly forming a defensive flank saved his part of the line."—Daily Express.
This must have been in Sir WALTER SCOTT'S proleptic mind when he wrote (in Rokeby):—
"Young Redmond, soil'd with smoke and blood,
Cheering his mates with heart and hand
Still to make good their desperate stand."
