| If the Durnford papers where faked by his Brother Edward or his Friend Nell then why.............. Where the "Orders to officers commding Columns" Also made?? They help in no way to clear Durnford Cheers DB14 |

| DB14, Edward and/or Nell didn't fake any papers - that is a nowhere argument. |

| Hi Colin J Sorry some people may have been unsure if they where real ( See the topic " Durnford was he capable " ) I was tying to say that if they where fake then there is no reason for the " Instructions to officers commanding colmns" to also have been made. There for the papers must be real Plus all the other evidence Cheers DB14 |

| DB14, no need to apologise to me my friend, I understood what you were meaning, it's just that the subject matter is lately being taken off on bizarre paths, for the sole purpose of discrediting them, hoping, it seems to me, to create another (new) piece of 'mischief history', which helps nobody. |

| DB14, best to look at the evidence yourself. Read reliable books by reliable authors - who may offer different opinions and interpretations of that same evidence, and make up your own mind, whilst keeping an open mind.
Don't get involved in conspiracy theories, twist evidence to suit your own beliefs, or become stuck in your views so much, that you see only what backs up your own twisted viewpoint, whilst ignoring all the other evidence. Like one or two posters on this forum that I
C ould mention, but T o be fair, i don't want to mention their S illy names or i will be G oing to the ring again. |
