A fragmentary eighteenth century excerpt describes how soldiers are summoned to prove a just muster and how false accusations lead to brutal treatment. It condemns the Black Hole prison, arbitrary court martial procedures, whip punishments, and the harsh, lingering punishments that follow, blaming officers for cruel practices.
The text argues that false Musters serve as evidence for the King but trigger court-martialling before appeal. It warns the appeal clause is a terrible trap, turning relief into a mockery, since those judging have companies and must regard the appellant as an Enemy and traitor. It cites Tuidor's Memoirs pages 134 to 144.
