Ear Haig presided.
The Duke of Devonshire :(Colonial. Secretary), in extending a cordial wel come to the delegates, said they attended the conference as representatives of the great Army which accomplished so quel during the late war. It was for thein, to do everything which lay in their power to see that the victory they gained in the field of battle was turned to profitabin and useful results.

There was no contradiction here, for an unarmed nation could keep neither the respect nor the friendship of its neighbours.
