LETTER FROM CUBA.

Following Is a portion Of a letter
received Tuesday by Sam Chap

brother John:
Santiago, July
Dear Brother
| am all right yet but have had
several close calls. A number Of
the boys have fallen RICH: by my
side. We are 100 yards from san
tiagO in plain view Of the Spanish
cannon. Their shells and cannon
balls nearly cover Us all up some
times. None Ofthe boys you know
have got seriously hurt yet except
BOrdwine, who was shot in the side
about 4 inches below the nipple.
think he will die We have been
continually in battle for - hours
until yesterday at noon. After
SsmpsGa blew up their vessels
yesterday the Spaniar,ls asked for
q truce Of 81 hours 10 telegraph the
Queen about the surrender. We
hope they will surrender, As their
Notifications are very strong and
We have as yet no artillery. All
that has been done was done With
our rifles.
All Of our boys who were left BE-
hind came in yesterday, hut
have not seen any except barney
Reynolds.
July ST. am well and all right,
but have gone through more than
| ever want to again. On the
night Of July End the Spaniar,iS
undertook TO charge Us and We had
about an hour Of the hardest fight
ing ever known. The guns find
sO-fast that it was one eO7tInuOus
roar. They threw several cannon
balls and shells right into urlines.
One she'll struck under our rife
pit and exploded. l was nearly
covered up with dirt. We killed
over 800 and wounded about 80
that night.
The flag Of truce is stin up and
We think they will surrender. We
row have some artillery planted
and sampson is in the harbOr, and
IL the fight Is renewed We can soon
wipe them out.
