Bellamy Storer writes in commendation of Lieutenant Floyd W. Harris of the 4th Calvary, who recently departed Brussels. Harris performed his duties in an admirable manner, the ministers and high officials of the Belgian government have a high regard for him, and “the King himself spoke very kindly of him” and hopes for his return.
