establishment and no reason can bo
given for their disappearance other
than that they were late recruits and
had become tired of wearing the sol
dier's uniform, preferring rather to
risk getting away and being marked
as deserters than to spend any more
time at tlio fort, but if they are
caught they will be treated as de
serters, the penalty of which is any
thing an army court-martial may di
rect, from death, in time of war, to
a light fine or confinement. In tho
guard house on a diet of bread and
water, and the missing, if captured
receive heavy sentences although the
death penalty is never inflicted in
time of peace.
There is a standbier reward of $30
offered by the United States govern
ment for the apprehension of sol
diers who leave the service without
permission and the civil authorities
all over the country have been furn
ished descriptions of these men and
if taken they will be returned to the
fort and it is a hard matter for a
man to get away in this day and
age, if any attempt is made to de
tect him, but, as a rule, there is little
effort put forth to apprehend a man
who wilfully deserts as the service
is considered better off when rid of
all such.
