Speaking of G.. w. Lees asparagus
business, the Courier says that from
about two acres he realized nearly ST.
600. Mr.. Lee says his asparagus field
lacks just fifteen square rods of being
three acres, and that his sales amounted
to just S747.40. The Courier's figures
decreased the area of the field almost
one-third and increased the receipts in
the same proportion. The truth makes
a good showing and shows the business
to have been exceedingly profitable.

TAYLOR STABBED.

der knitted By
Filipino.
A LETTER.
Tells How He Turned Ia
bles and Captured Ag-
gressor.

Private Clarence F. Taylor Com
pany G, Eighteenth regiment infantry,
an 1S-year-old youngster of this city,
now engaged in the. perilous fighting
going on in the Philippine Islands;
writes a characteristic letter to his
mother, Mrs Carrie NJ. Taylor, As Coral
street 1t would seem as though the
young man was thoroughly imbued
with the true Amei lean sentiment. for
he has no use for the Filipinos and
promises to make short work Of any
Filipino that comes his way.
Young Taylor has reasons for his an
tipathy for the Insurgents. for he has
already been stabbed BY one of them
in d skirmish. The wound was in
aicted one night when he was on out
post duty. the insurgent slipping up
behind and making a desperate attempt
to kill him. Taylor was too quick for
the Filipino. however, and saved him
the trouble Of looking for any one else
to kill by making him his prisoner.
The letter is dated Feb. IS and was
The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-04-23

received in this city the 18th of April.
The Philippine postmark shows that it
left the island the Sth of March, being
80 days in transmission, the record
time in getting to this city so far. Tay-
lor is the only Worcester boy in the
Eighteenth regiment. They are now
quartered at Jahro, Iloilo, Panay ISL
ands, where some of the fiercest fight
ms of the entire campaign has taken
place. The Eighteenth is known as
the fighting" regiment of its brigade
and has had occasion to prove its right
to the title several times and has al
ways been equal to the emergency.
At the outbreak of the hostilities be-
tween this country and Spain, Taylor
was anxious to go to the front but his
folks prevailed upon him to remain at
home. This went for a while, until his
chum, Albert Gould, enlisted with the
Twelfth. Young Taylor would not be
gainsaid in his desire to enlist. He
was sent with the rest of the Wor-
cester volunteers to Fort Mcpherson,
Georgia, where he was initiated in the
arts Of a soldier. When there came a
call for volunteers to go to Manila,
young Taylor was one of the first to-
prefer his services. He was assigned
to the Eighteenth regiment and was the
only Worcester boy to be put into that
regiment. though many were assigned
to other regiments to do duty in the
Philippines.
He was sent to the Philippines on
board the transport New York. and ar
rived in time to take part in the fight
ing prior to the surrender of Manila
by the Spaniards to Major General
Wesley Merritt. After the capitulation
OF Manila the Eighteenth regiment, as
well as the other regiments enjoyed
themselves until the insurgents began
TO make themselves troublesome, and
the Americans began to fear an out
break. The threatened outbreak did
come eventually. and the Americans
We're forced to fight their former allies
Young Taylor's refiment was put in
the thick of the fight, and took part in
the driving back of the Filipinos. When
it was decided to take Iloilo, i'll the
Panay islands, the Eighteenth was one
of the regiments selected for the peril
Gus undertaking The insurgents made
an open boast that should the Ameri-
cans take .IlOilo, the town would be
destroyed by fire and hidden explo-
sives. The American forces left the
island of Luzon and did take noilo, but
the town was not destroyed because OF
the vigilance Of the American troopers.
It was after the taking Of the town
