Text Any textual data included in the document [Page 1] No. 1 Atlantic Street Charleston S. C. April 13th 1898. Col. A. Coward, Sup’t S. C. M. A., Dear Sir & Comrade: - I desire to express to you my hearty approval and admiration of your conduct, and that of the Commander, & also of the Board of Directors, in the action taken in reference to the “mutiny” of a large portion of the members of the Corps of Cadets of the Academy. It is to be regretted that it was not possible to inflict some severe corporal punishment. A little taste of “buck and gag,” “thumb tying,” or “solitary confinement on bread and water diet” ending with “reduction to the ranks,” and “drumming out of camp [Page 2] to the tune of the Rogue’s March” would have had a solitary effect. The list of the names of the disgraced cadets should be filed in the Office of the Adjutant General of the State, and if there is no existing law to that effect, one should be enacted at the next session of the State Legislature, forbidding the issuing of a Military Commission ever being issued to any of them, for any position whatever in the Militia of the State. South Carolina expects to draw her commissioned officers from graduates of the Academy, in the future as in the past, in both peace and war. But how can she ever place any reliance upon men who have shown [Page 3] such utter disregard for those in authority over them or en violated the rules of military discipline, in times of trial, as these men have done? It is a well known military maxim, that “he who has not learned to obey, is not fit to command.” Again expressing my approval, and wishing you and the Academy a large measure of future peace and prosperity, I remain Your Sincere Friend, C.
