YOKOHAMA, Japan, July II. 1899 =
do not know whether you received
my letter from Nagasaki which was
written at that place on July 7th and
Sth. But nevertheless | shall write q
brief letter from here, giyinga descrip-
tion of our tripf Nagasaki TO this
place. and also of this city and the
surroundings Of the city.
The Senator with its load of Tenth
Pennsylvania q. S. v. boys left Nag
asaki on the 10th of July for Yoke.

! mentioned in my other letter that
we were TO go through the. inland sea
to Yokohama. We left Nagasaki al
4:30 a. m. and reached the Inland
sea at 1920 p. m. the next day
When we first came to the en-
trance OF this so-called sea we struck
a very narrow channel AT the be
ginning of this channel on our left is
the town Tansan, a small town the
size of Uniontown, Pa. This town ii
where they manufacture the notable
Tansan water for medical purposes.
1t is well fortified town. On ouI
right lay the little town of Chimeno-
saki. We were in the channel eigh
teen hours. There are small towns
all the way every few miles, and near
Iy every town Of any size you see has
placed on small eminence five or six
guns ready for action. Beautiful trees
and flowers in sight all the way
through.
The mountain peaks are not so high
as they arc in and around Nagasaki, but
more numerous and beautiful. Coal
mines by the hundreds; coal costs
only $l.62 per ton.
Well, / guess there is but little
more Of interest In this section for the
reader, so / shall pass on to the city
Of Yokohama, one OF the prettiest and
most pictures lue cities l ever saw.
We anchored in the Yokohama bay
