THE ARTILLERY.

the 9th and 9TH talked of the fight
ing this morning. He said
about sixty of us were on the
straight cliffs above Coyne and
King and their men. We had
them at our mercy. The only
thing that saved them was the ar
tillery. When we saw the pieces
on the tug and at Sans Souci we
were afraid. Wilcox said 1t is
all right. am the only man on
the islands who can handle the
guns. Those fellows will blow
them up and get killed themselves.
Wilcox had the heavy rifle. 1t
was sporting Winchester. When
the shells broke above us we cut
and run. l don't know if any of
our crowd were killed"
