    Who were the officers? Had the new regiment arrived? Was a new military scheme in contemplation?
    But it transpired that the War Office in England had remembered the East Yorks were about to depart, and had sent out the following officers for the nice little trip.
    Lieuts. Maw, J. A. Hogg, Wilson, R. Roe, and E. H. Hardy."
