answered, Don't fire on our men; ire when you see the Spaniards. " The First was in the third line of the brigade.
 Colonel Viele's caution about firing was timely, for there were many ob- stacles to be passed which would break the line, and besides Rents infantry on the left of the cavalry was already working toward the blockhOuse. The two columns were to converge slightly before reaching their separate goals and might in the excitement of battle mis- take each other for the enemy. The gallant Hawkins, leader of Rents ad- vance brigade, impatient to dash at San Juan blOckhouse, which he declared that he could take in the flank, passed up the road to the front, while the cav airy was halted in the bed of the creek. Said a cavalry officer, Hawkins was the finest soldier there, and the cavalry knew him we'll" All the older regular officers are known to all the other off cers and to the long service privates as well, because promotion takes them from one regiment to another. Hence, although Shafter's was a new army, it was by no means an army of strangers.
 IL was about noon when the line of the cavalry division was actually formed for attack On the ridge in its front, the ground having been reconnoitered and points for attack shown to leaders of regiments and squadrons. As usual in such cases, the exact time was not noted down, and perhaps the term noon may be used to cover the time between l2 and o'clock An officer of the First cavalry said it took three hours to pass down the road from Fl Poso to "Hells Crossing ' and that the march began at s:3O. About lls hours seem to have been passed in the bed of the creek by some of the cavalry, perhaps by all.
 It should be remembered that tEis was midday. and a tropical midday at that. The soldiers, when inactive, could barely keep their feet They were in a valley without a breath of air. They were wet, some to the knees and some to the waist, from wading in the streams. For more than an hour they had seen the dead and wounded brought into the angle, victims of the Spanish marksmen in front of them on the crest of the ridge. It was this time, if at all, that the general impulse to charge the hill swept down the line. Regiments, battalions and companies had been formed 10 attack. Full directions had been given with the exception of the word "go." It is said that just then a volunteer field officer, who all the mOrn- ing had been rather heard than seen outside of his own regiment, called out with a theatrical wave of the hand: This hill must be takenl If there are three men here who will go with me, We will take it!" Already parts of the line were in motion, and shortly the entire column surged forward, carrying the excited volunteer along with 1t, or perhaps swallowing him up, for he was not seen by the regulars again until they had planted their standards on the first hill.
 Distractions were encountered every few rods. At the outset there were two

 wire fences and hedges, which were cut through and jammed down, the First aud Tenth cavalry keeping a good line across the clearing and making straight for the Red House.
 Carroll's brigade, moving to the right of Woods, found the hill beyond the hedges and fences steep and rocky. The men clambered up and at the top reached level ground-in fact, the fields and yards of a country house. Their position was swept by fire from Spanish intrenchments in front No Spaniards were seen by Carroll's men, but they had been there and could be seen by the men of Colonel Woods brigade, rapidly retreating to the right The Tenth cav airy unfurled its colors, planted its staffs iD the ground at the Red House, which immediately drew a heavy fire from the Spanish in San Juan fort. The time is set down by the Tenth cavalry as about noon. In Carroll's brigade this first hill was called Kettle Hill' be- cause there were some huge iron cal drons set up at the crest. Near these kettles the flag of the Third cavalry was planted.
 Soon after reaching the hill, Colonel Carroll, commanding the brigade, was shot, Lieutenants Thayer and Meyer of the Third wounded and Hamilton of the Ninth killed. In the ascent of the hill Lieutenants Smith and Ship of the Tenth were killed and Lieutenant Rob erts wounded. Judging from the num- Der of cavalry officers hit on this first hill. it would seem that those who esti- mated the casualties suffered at the creek, was from 75 to 90 per cent of the total may be mistaken. The Spanish fire encountered here was from San Juan blockhouse, later taken by the in- fantry, from the ridge still farther on in the American front and an intrenched house located there. When the cavalry was in possession of this San Juan or Kettle Hill, " General Sumner gave or ders to the First cavalry not to leave the hill Said he, We must make Q stand here in case our folks are driven out of our extreme front" There were then on the hill three troops of the Third cavalry and a few rough riders, and Summers orders included them in the force that was to stay there and hold it.
