Notes
Content: Printed on border: "Explanation of text in the engraving. Military justice is the punishment inflicted on soldiers who have been guilty of desertion, or some other offence against discipline; one of the provost-marshals proceeds to interrogate and try them, lay the case before the court-martial, draw up the sentence, and see it carried into execution. The whole process is a very summary one, and the executioner is generally some thief who thus earns his pardon." Includes additional text in French.
