  Appendix 4

  Winfield Scott’s General Orders, No. 20, of February 19, 1847, declaring MARTIAL LAW.

  1. It is still to be apprehended that many grave offences, not provided for in the Act of Congress “establishing rules and articles for the government of the armies of the United States,” approved April 10, 1806, may again be committed-by, or upon, individuals of those armies, in Mexico, pending the existing war between the two Republics. Allusion is here made to offences, any one of which, if committed within the United States or their organized Territories, would, of course, be tried and severely punished by the ordinary or civil courts of the land.

  2. Assassination, murder, poisoning, rape, or the attempt to commit either; malicious stabbing or maiming; malicious assault and battery, robbery, theft; the wanton desecration of churches, cemeteries or other religious edifices and fixtures; the interruption of religious ceremonies, and the destruction, except by order of a superior officer, of public or private property; are such offences.
