Show Text of Sutler's Message Advising Surrender Sur-render of Ladysmlth. The London Daily Express, on the authority of Dr. Miller, a famous military mili-tary coach, gives what it alleges to be the authentic version of the heliogram sent by General Buller to General White during the siege of Ladysmith. It is'as follows: I have failed, Unable to try again without siege operation methods. Can you hold so long? If not, I suggest sug-gest your firing away as much ammunition ammu-nition as possible, and finally making the best terms. If you have any other alternative to suggest, I can remain where I am as long as you suggest. Further dispatches were exchanged, adds the Daily Express, and, learning that Sir George White was able to holdout, General Buller settled down to prepare to cross the Tugela. Mr. Maguire, through whose hands hal the officers of the British army have passed for study, professes to have acquired the information without seeking it some months ago. |
