Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report on the Outbreak of the Rebellion and the Policy of the Government With Regard to Its Suppression: Presented to Both Houses of Parliament by Command of His Majesty, April, 1915
The latter section confines itself exclusively to the efforts of the Government to restore peace without bloodshed, and subsequently to induce the rebels in the field to surrender without further bloodshed. N O attempt is made to describe the military measures by means Of which the rebellion was ultimately brought to an end.
The first section, in which the outbreak of the rebellion is sketched, had to be compiled under difficulties. A mass of material in the hands of the Government could not be used, as it forms important evidence in the cases of individuals on trial or awaiting trial In the case of certain German agents, investigations are still being pursued, and it would be premature to disclose the information so far collected. On certain points, again, the available evidence had not yet been properly sifted at the time of writing.
It is therefore possible that the narrative may require subsequent amplification as to details.
