/, one man stands out on the ho:l-
ION of my memory like Mars at
perihelion. When war broke out
between Spain and the United
States. it WAS very necessary to
communicate quickly with the
leader of the Insurgents. Garcia
WAS somewhere in the mountain
Businesses of Cuba--no one knew
where No mail nor telegraph
message could reach him. The
President must secure his cooper
alton, and quickly
What to do !
Someone said to the President,
There's a fellow by the name of
Rowan will find Garcia for you, if
anybody can
Rowan was sent for and given a
'etler to be delivered to Garcia,
How the fellow 10y the name Of
Rowan" took the letter, sealed ii
up in an oil-skin pouch, strapped
it over his heart, in four days land

into the Jungle. and in three weeks
came cut on the other side of the
island. having traversed hostile
country on foot, and delivered his
letter to Garcia, are things | have
no special desire now to tell in de-

The point | wish to make is
this: Mckinley gave Rowan a
letter to be delivered to Garcia.
Rowan took the letter and did not
