wound ia the arm should disable the man
so he couldn't walk. ard when I had q
chance TO look him over / found big
black bruise on his left thigh. That set me
thinking, and, on examining his arm more
closely. / found that tie bullet had gone
through the body also, diagonally across
from shoulder 10 hip. and the man was
dying. He did die little later, but before
his last breath he managed to give me a
lock of his curly black hair. tied with a
little ribbon, and a picture OF himself, to be
sent TO his mother at Q place In the South,
which I wrote down. I saw lots OF those
coIored men, and its my opinion the whole
attack would have been nowhere without
them. / believe they scared the Spaniards
out of their trenches with their yelling and
whooping. I never heard such bloodhound
ling cries as those fellows gave in the
charge.
The niggers are good fighters. hu. they
have no mercy for the enemy. They
thought IL was all fooiishness taking care
