Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under the Red Dragon, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel Besides other duties there was no small num ber of books - goodly sized folios - of which I had the supervision, ten at least exactly Similar to those which are kept at head-quarters; and all these tasks were varied by an occasional ball or rout such as a cathedral and garrison town can furnish; or a court-martial, or one of inquiry, concerning Mrs. Private Jones resenting - vi et armis that the can teen-keeper Should cut her bacon and tobacco, but ter and bread, with the same knife; or to give some Giles Chawbacon fifty lashes about daybreak for a violation of the Red-book, in a hollow square, where men's teeth chattered in the chilly air, or they yawned behind their glazed stocks and shivered with disgust, at a punishment for which the army was indebted to William of Orange, and which is now happily a thing of the past.
