To soud the regulars Woodlark neross the open to airy the stronghold by storms, under heavy fire from the brigands, meant heavy loss and certain death to many of his men, to Fittle purpose. The only alternative was to blow up the house along with its garrison. But, this resource failed him from nu explosives being at hauri. The result was that the brigands excaped.
. A Haiphong paper rightly wondars why the troops in the field are not enpplied with molinite bombs. Suck engines of destruction would save much loss of life among the soldiery operating against the brigands.

The result of this weak-kneed policy Leopard is that the brigand bands in that oction
