Conclusion. I wish here to express the deepest sympathy with the relatives and friends of those,officers of the Department who have laid down their lives in the glorious light lor freedom, and to congratulate those who have, up to the present, come through the manifold dangers of the war. And, finally, 1 desire most heartily to thank the members of the staff who, being themselves unable to render military sendee, have throughout this most trying year assisted to keep the work of the Department as nearly as possible, at the high level the country now expects of it. P. 8. Pope, Secretary.
