I know you will do the best you can." "Well," replied the colonet, I'll try to do it in a fortnight. Well,' Lord Roberts repeated, *know you will do the best you can '; and with a pleasant smile he dismissed tho.. eldeer.
Outside the dour he met Lord Kitebener." -Well Asked Kitchener, with business- He abruptness, what are you doing?! b. ak the colonel, Lord Roberts

Now, colonel, was Kitchener's retort, *if you cannot do it within a week, ive shall have to see about sending you home done it was..
