1t was the intention of the Yorktown
to raise the siege. It was decided to
send Ensign Standby and quarter
master Lysac ashore to reconnoiter.
On April II, 1899, boat with the scouts
was sent away from the warship at
4 a. m. in charge of Lieut.. Commander
Gilmore. The boat crew was COM
posed of Chief Quartermaster Walton,
Sailmaker's Mate Voudoit. Coxswain
Ellsworth, Gunner's Mate Nygard,
Seamen Rynders, Woodbury., Briso-
lese and Mcdonald, and Landsmen
Dillon, Morrissey, Edwards and Ander-
son, and Apprentices Venville and Pc
terson. The oars were muffled, the
boat was steered into a cove and the
scouts landed.
The officer thought the Filipinos on
guard had been outwitted when sud-
denly dawn shed a light over the boat
and heavily wooded country, exposing
them to view. The boat was dropped
gently down toward the open water
when suddenly volley was poured in
on them by the Filipinos. It was an
ambush Morrissey was shot through
the head and killed. Dillon was struck
in the eye and killed. Rynders. with
his hands on his oars had the fingers
Of one hand severed, but he kept on
rowing. Walton and voudoit were
working the Colt maxim, when a shot
severed the ammunition tape and shat
tered the box, rendering it useless.
Mcdonald and Nygard fell MORALLY
wounded. Blood was everywhere on
the boat and men were falling at their
oars.
Gilmore reached for a rife but a
bullet had hit the lock Venville start
ed to fix it when bullet went through
the flesh of his neck I'm hit, Mr.
Gilmore he said. He went on fix
ing the gun. A second ball plowed
through his breast. Another cut a
furrow in his forehead He wiped
the blood from his eyes, remarking
that he had again been hit. Then
finally ball smashed his ankle, but
he had fixed the gun and handed it
to Gilmore. This was a boy seven
teen years of age. and never before IN
der fire
With the men at the thwarts knocked
away Gilmore became a target, but
was not hit, although bullets whist1ed
past his head frequently. There was
no cessation in the firing, and finally

oner. 'incommunicado," for three
months. He passed the time in one
ROOM The only spot he could really
call his own, was the mattress on
which he slept. The natives sat and
watched him through the day in idle
curiosity They were always interest
ed when he bathed- behind a manta
which he hung up in one corner.
At this time General Tino, a remark
able man, was in command at Vigan.
He was % years of age, and looked
like a winsome boy. But his rule was
one of iron, he was cruel, implacable,
a tyrant and military martinez. He
terrorized the natives He was am
bilious and wanted to be second
Aguinaldo Tino hated the Americans
and but for the influence of the local
presidente, Gilmore and his compan-
ions would have been shot. At Ben
qued, Gilmore had a cell viler than
any before. The roof leaked, the walls
were green with mould and huge rats
infested the place.
The prisoners, other than Gilmore,
during this time earned little money
by teaching classes in English. Then
Gilmore and his companions were

Americans bombarded Vigan, % miles
away. Then began preparations for
the fight of the villagers. A reign of
, terror prevailed among the prisoners.
! The pass. between Vigan and Ban
qued had been fortified and the Fill
pinos believed it to be impregnabie.
On December 5, the Americans forced
, the pass. They were under Col. Hare
and Lieut.-Col. Howe Tino fed to
the hills with handful of men and
panic seized all Benqued. In an hour
from the receipt of the news of the
American victory Gilmore and his
, companions were taken from the pris-
on and assembled in front of the pris-
on. General Natividad addressed the
Tagal Lieutenant in charge as fol-
+ lows:
eff you have any trouble with your
prisoners, bring them back to Ben
qued; we'll then quickly settle them
Gilmore and his fellow captives knew
too we'll what this meant.
Then they began a march heading
for the mountains. Their guards ap-
peared to have completely lost their
heads. There was a jabbering rout of
men, women and children, as the col
urnn of refugees and prisoners was hur-

ried on. While crossing a stream on
horseback Gilmore nearly lost his life
owing to the ignorance of a leading
Filipino whose horse was swept off its
feet.
When possible the party made chalk
marks on rocks and trees with an ar
row pointing in the direction they
were going as a guide to the troops in
pursuit. In the party was a civilian,
an agent for an American brewery,
who had been captured in the outskirts
of Manila. He took the whole matter
as joke. Everywhere he could find
a blank space, he wrote, or had writ
ten for him in big white letters, Drink
Blanks, Beer on the Road to H
Gilmore afterwards learned that these
roadside inscriptions greatly aided Col
Hare and his men in tracing the party.
The first time Col. Hare saw the beer
mans legend upon a rock he exclaim-
ed: VERY well, will follow Gilmore
and his party to H if necessary"
He came very near doing it.
Finally the party reached the wilds
of Luzon. They entered apparently in
accessible chasms. The horses were
killed for food and they finally had to
crawl on hands and knees in places.
On December Is they reached the pine
barrens at the top of the mountain
range. Two of the Americans were
overtaken with fever. Gilmore begged
the Tagal officer to let some one re-
main behind with them.
The officer finally said if they could
not go ahead they would be shot. The
Americans looked at one another and
they determined to make a last stand
although unarmed. They gathered a.
round the invalids. The officer made
motion with his right arm and they
thought their time to die had come
But the lieutenant was taken sudden
ly ill with fever and the arm motion
was made as he plunged forward to
the ground.
After a few days march an order
! came, presumably from Tino, to exc
cute the prisoners. Then the lieuten-
ant said his conscience would not per-
! NIT him to do So He would, instead
abandon the party to shift for itself

that the lieutenants decision was

They went down the river and came

Then they heard a yell, and thel
another in tongue that was strange

Hare's men who had at last found
them. Then there was feasting OF
bacon, bareback, bean soup and tea.

white flag was hoisted by Gillmore's
men. The savages came running
down to the boat and took out the
living and wounded All were strip
ped of their clothing and yaluables,
lined up on shore, with arms pinioned,
and then they found they were to be
shot. An executing party lined up
before them, took aim and were about
to fire, when an officer interfered.
Then began the march to the inter-
ior. The fatigued and desperately
wounded men We're marched past Ba-
Ter in the direction OF Puntabanca.
They were put in a bamboo church and
a friendly Tagal put balm on the
wounds of the Americans.
Aguinaldo ordered the prisoners con-
veyed to st. Isidro, the insurgent capt.
tai, and eight men composed the cap
tive party which set out on this hard
journey. They wore scarcely any
clothing and had no shoes. They had
to wade in swift streams with tor
tuous, rocky beds, which cut their feet.

the head, but they were urged on I'M

cold and wet, and the journey soon be-
came a nightmare. Forty miles of
this brought them to Puntabanca. The
savages everywhere surrounded the
"Anlericanos" eager to see the faces
of the first white men ever brought
there. A former Spanish officer at
this town gave them secondhand ma
tive hats to add to their scanty ward
robe. Then the Journey was again
taken up. Thousands of people met
them at st. Isidro and hooted and
jeered at them. The quarters given
to Gilmore were filthy and he had to
make room for thieves and murderers
and all manner of Filipino riff-raff.
Then followed weary marches over
Luzon from jail to Jail. Filipino Off
GERS often brandished daggers over
the men, but when these stood bravely
without flinching, their braggadocio
fell fiat. AT one time there were 600
Spanish prisoners on the march with
Gilmore, and these were brutally
treated by the misunderstanding off

|G|LL MORt'S EXPERIENCES WITH The TAGALS.
Executive Officer of Cruiser Cincinnati Was
Captured in the Philippines and Narrowly
Escaped Execution In WiIds of Luzon.

Three years ago today a party of
panied by large number of American
soldiers were shooting down the rapids
of the. Abulug River in the northern
part of the Island of Luzon. They
were on their way to the town of
APART where soldiers of the United
States army awaited them. The eight
ragged men were headed by Lieut.
Commander J. C. Gilmore, now the
executive officer aboard the United
States cruiser Cincinnati lying in the
harbor of Honolulu, and they had just
been rescued from the F'ilipinos after
enduring eight months captivity
among the savage tribes Of Luzon.
The story of Commander Gillmore's
capture and captivity was one of the
most dramatic features of the early
part of the war in the Philippines.
During this time the officer was be-
lieved to have died or been executed
by his savage captors, but he and his
companions, mostly men of the gun
boat Yorktown, withstood the rigors
imposed upon them and faced death
often without fiinching.
One of the most interesting relics of
Lieut.-Commander Gillmore's long cap
tivity is the bowl and spoon which he
used in this time. Both are aboard
the Cincinnati and are a practical DEM
onstration of the old adage that me
cessity is the mother of invention"
The bowl is the third of cocoanut
and the spoon is but strip of cocoa
nut shell with natural bowl. Most
of the food which the captive was able
to procure during his captivity was
eaten from this bowl
Mr.. Gilmore had just been attached
to the gunboat Yorktown when the
vessel was ordered to Baler, a town on
the eastern coast of Luzon where g.
small Spanish garrison had been be-
leagured by the Fflipinos for year.

MR.

Possibly if those kids were taxed and tagged their parents might use some re- straint. A SUFFERER.
