thsided many localities in tlu* Southern
states. The circular declares that tho
United States had a right to protect
its loyal citizens in tlu* South from con
scription in tlu* Confederate army, und
its failure to do so makes the government
liable for damages in each case where
a man was so conscripted, or forced in
to the Southern army.
It further atutea that all an ox-con-
script has to do in order to'reeeire dam
ages in to prove his loyalty and thnt he
was compelled to enter the army of the
enemy against his will. In this con
nection Mason cites u number of al

the government could not protect its citi

could pay any damage that might ac
crue from said lack of protection.
