life to entertaining. For forty successive
years she has done this, and now she has
earned her title by right Of long-contin-

Friend Michael-I received your letter
at the Brooklyn navy yard and was glad
to hear from home. We left the yard
the next day for Lamberts Point and
took on supplies for the feet. Then We
sailed for Key West, a journey of Ave
days. Our captain was Ill, and he died just
as we sighted the Keys. At Key West we
buried him with all military honors, and
| had the honor OF being one OF the pail
bearers. our next captain, Mr.. Miller,
came on board June Z. then we imme-
diately proceeded to Havana, reported to
the commander-in-chief of squadron, and
were stationed at Cardenas with orders
to intercept every vessel that hove in
sight.
Now we have lots of excitement chas-
