The Governor of South Australia (Lieut.-Colonel Sir Henry Lionel Galway) has been interviewed regarding the situation in Ireland. He states that he served in Southern Nigeria in the 'nineties with Sir .Roger Casement, who was at that time under the Foreign- Office. He had always regarded Casement as a wild Irishman. Although a charming fellow, he was a bit of a fanatic over anything he attempted. The Governor knows no reason why Casement should be antagonistic to the British Government, as he has always had good billets, and should have been just the opposite, instead of turning on, the country which employed and trusted him. He was either mad or a traitor. .If the former, he' ought to be. put out of harm's way; and if a renegade, there was only • one way to deal with him.
