the rough riders by their commanding
officer, it must be taken as meaning
that the rough riders carried the sec
ond line" and "drove the Spaniards
over the brow" In his second report
Colonel Roosevelt says that after Fort
San Juan was taken large force was
assembled on ''Kettle" hill, not only OF
his own regiment, but of the Ninth and
portions of other regiments. This is
well known. He then states: 1--WE then
charged forward under a heavy fire
across the valley against the Spanish in
trenchments on the hill in rear of San
Juan hill This we also took, capturing
several prisoners. He received orders
to halt and hold the crest. At the time
he had fragments Of the Sixth cavalry
and an occasional infantryman under
him, 500 or 400 men all told. The rough
riders numbered 542 and lost 81 in all,
making about 475 on duty. But there
were other troopers than the Sixth and
rough riders with Roosevelt at the time.
Either Roosevelt is confused as to the
order CT events or he and his rough rid
ers had nothing to do with the capture
of the second ridge, or San Juan hill
He places his rush forward after Par
ker's Gatlings opened on Fort San Juan.
At that hour the cavalry advance was
rushing along the swale toward the sec
ond ridge. Roosevelt says that when he
saw the Spaniards abandon Fort San
Juan he called upon his men to charge
the hills in front. that is, north San
Juan ridge. His details of what follow

ment reported TO have done wonders

from disgrace The conclusions of the
Seventy first regiment inquiry fix the
status of the officers of that regiment.
The officers of the Second Massachu-
setts respected one another and the
men respected their officers. Not only
that, the Massachusetts officers and men
looked up TO and respected the regular
officers and men This fact was i'm
pressed upon me in many ways at Camp

had made good soldiers ont of these

as back numbers by the other officers

The truth is that the Second Massa-
chusetts went to Cuba expecting hard
time, prepared to face it and anxious
to take points from old hands at the
business of soldering About half the
men were raw recruits, for the old
