Pour une violation aussi serieuse de la discipline Militaire, qui feit retomber -autant de disgrace sur le corps, oii eile a eu lieu, la Cour a condamne Ics dits Joseph Prudhomme, Pierre Arnois, et Etienne Uatcl, a ctre conduits, les Fera aux mains i Icur Bataillon, pour demander pardon a genoux, de leur mauvaise conduite, et a etre menes ensuite a la Prison commune du District ou sera ators leur Bataillon, pour y £tre confines durant I'espace de trois mois de Calendrier.

Upon which the Court came to the following decision : fhe Court is of opinion that the said Antoine Simon dit D'Arpentigny !e w,uiiLV of having deserted from his picket stationed at La Mascoutino, in the District of Montreal, on the fifteenth of February last, but acquits him of the charge laid against him of having endeavoured to desert to the enemy, therefore, the Court condemns the said Antoine Simon dit D'Arpentigny to four months labour in the King's works at Quebec, and to solitary confinement during the nights, after which hi will be reconducted to his Battalion, and will pass in the ran'.v hand-cuffed, and a log tied to his feet. His Excellency the Governor in Chief in approving the finding of the Court, must express his apprehension that when crimes- of so enormous a nature are so sat- ibfactorily proved and so inadequattly punished, the members of the Court coulJ not be suiuciently senfible of the high obHgr.tions they were under to maintain entire the discipline of the militia and to preserve the dignity and importance of a general Court Martial, by a more -decided he? of conduct. His Excel: -ncy the Governor in Chief directs that his opinion together with the charg-es and the fi;id!ng and sent-enc-i of the Court, snail bj read at the head cf ev.-ry c^irp.; and entered in the General Order Book.
