Excerpt from The War in Paraguay: With a Historical Sketch of the Country and Its People and Notes Upon the Military Engineering of the War It was not my intention to have written the following account of the war until President Lepez should have been deposed by the Allies. They appear, however, to be in no way anxious to put an end to the fearful sacri fice of life which has been going on in Paraguay for four years and a half; and, considering that the following nar rative might have some effect towards urging them to conclude the war, and thus save the lives of the women and children in Paraguay, who must now be dying of mere starvation, I have endeavoured to give an una derned statement of facts. Although I can speak of the despot, who has used them for the purposes of his own selfish ambition, only with the greatest horror and aversion, for the Para guayans themselves I have the most friendly feelings; and I think I may say that I have done my duty to wards them, having, as far as I could, alleviated the misery of the military life of those who were under my orders, and having been able to save many of their lives.
