American garrison in Moro Castle

palms ana having obtained from an
acquaintance 100 young trees he had
them properly planted.
While the captain was congratulate
ing himself on hts efforts to improve
| the planting was done voluntarily by
| the garrison, the rumor went flying
through the whole province that the
Americans were planting "cocos" on
the Moro. and since 1t takes six years

that the Americans intended to re-
