AUTHOR'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT
"German Prisoners," "Back to London," "Four Rye Sheaves," and "Our British Dead," appeared originally in The Spectator; "The Carrion Crow" in The Nation. To the respective Editors of these reviews I would return my thanks; in the first instance for the hospitality of their pages thus extended, and further for the kind permission they have so readily granted me to republish these pieces here. I have to acknowledge a similar courtesy on the part of Sir Frederick Treves, Bt., whose compilation, "Made in the Trenches," published on behalf of the "Star and Garter" Endowment Fund, included "A Shakespeare Tercentenary," and "St. Patrick's Day in the Mornin'."
