The Foreman of the Grand Jury. having submitted his report to thc Court. His Lordship the Chief Justice. Sir W. W. Sullivan. made' an eloquent address to them. ill which he dealt at considerable length on the war and the atrocities of the Germalls. and polllted out ill clear and emphatic terms the duty of every citizen of the Empire, indeed every citizen of this province, in the circunlstancos. "You have all read in the news- papers." he said. “ of the dreadful war in which we are involved. When I use the term ‘ we' l mean the British Empire. to which you alld I alld every British subject are all proud to belong. Everything that could possibly have been done by the British Government to avoid war was done. but notwith- standing all measures adopted the war was forced on. indeed, if the Germans had had their dcsire in thc year 1913, according to the records now publish- cd. this war would llavc bccn colll- mcnced. It was unavoidable so far as Britain is concerned. Britain, as 1 said to you, did overytlllllg possible. The British Government, the British Foreign Secretary and the British Prime Minister exerted themselves to the utmost to avert the trouble, bllt they were forced into the war.

Bolo Brit- ish ht for The Silver Black Fox the Government of England whether or not it was going to see that justice would be done to them and that the pligilted faith and honour of England would be observed. The answer of the British Government was at once positive, that they would stand by the treaty. And they did stand by tile treaty. What did the Prime Minister of England say in the Parliament of Great Britain? That we would rather tllat England had been blotted from the map of Europe than that they should so far disgrace her good name and credit in the world as to fail to give the necessary support to Belgium! That was what was dolle. You know how tllat war has been, and is being, carried on, how ruthlessly the Ger- mans have pursued their cruel and atrocious tactics. They were not only satisfied to take possession of the country, but they have destroyed it entirely; they have illllulnanly but- chered the inhabitants and knocked dowll their buildings; alld when there was nothing else possible left to suffer from their vandalism they imposed enormous indemnities upon Brussels and other cities of tllat inoffensive country tllat had absolutely nothing to do with the quarrel between Austria and Servia. Very well. The war, as you know, has been going on at a desperate rate. The Allies have put up a magnificent figllt. By their ad- mirable efforts they have prevented the Germans from succeeding ill attacking Paris alld have driven them back now to the borderland between France alld Belgium. On every occasion where the troops of the Allies have encountered the Germans--in zl great many instances outnunlllcrcil by four to one-they have succeeded in driving them back or enabling them- selves to retreat ill such a way as to secure positions of better advantage.
