DAYS fight were buried this morning on the
field OF action. Their bodies were laid IN one
long trench. each wrapped in blanket Palm

fusion over the dead heroes
Chaplain Brown read the Episcopal burial ser
vice for the dead. and as he knelt IN prayer
every trooper. with barred head, knelt around
the trench. When the chaplain announced the
HYMN Nearer. Ny Cod TO Thee" the deep
bass voices Of the men gave a most impressive
rendering of the music.
The dead Rough Riders rest right on the sum-
NIT Of the hill where they fell. The site is most
beautiful A growth OF rich. luxuriant grass
and flowers covers the slopes and from the top
a far-reachng view is had over the tropical
forest
Chaplain Brown has marked each grave. and
has complete records for the benefit Of friends OF
the dead soldiers.
Captain Capron's body was brought into Jul
