Subject: RE: The Decency of the 'Cat
Thanks, Nicole C- so when it says:" nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. ", the operative phrase is 'in a manner prescribed by law"? I do know that that there's been summary confiscation of property when needed, but I suppose that if a complaint were made against the military in a court of law, the military could make an easy case of it.
You made me look up 'angary'- I had never run across that word. Thanks!
