IT has always pleased man in his humanity to set forth more or less periodically and kill a number of his fellow humans.

As we know ourselves from our small daily disputes, the other man is always in the wrong, though he seldom, if ever, annoys us so much that we want to kill him: individual murder is discouraged, even appears to the Britisher as being silly and undignified, so that instead of sneaking on him in the dark, or killing him in a duel, we tell our sympathetic family just what we think of him and his actions.
