EPITAPH OF HERO
MILDLY CRUISES LAST WORDS
MARK GRAVE.
Never mind me: I'm all right.
Look after those other fellows.

The foregoing simple epitaph on mon
ument recently erected at Arlington tells
briefly but graphically the story of the
noble sacrifice of Midshipman James
Thomas Cruise. whose remains rest be-
meath the memorial stone.
The young man un1linchingly met death
last summer from injuries received in an
explosion in a turret of the battleship
Georgia while at target practice in Cape
Cod bay.
1t is related that when the explosion
came the gallant Cruise was at one gun
in the turret, while his classmate and
personal friend. Midshipman Goldthwaite
of Hopkinsville, KY, was at the other.
Coldthwaite was so severely hurt that
he died about two hours later.
Cruise. although badly burned. managed
to get out of the turret. Hearing cries
Of help coming from the turret. he i'm
mediately retraced his steps. though ter
ribly injured, into the place where the
explosion had occurred.
He was rendering all the assistance he
could to the injured seamen when some
one reminded him of his own deplorable
condition. Then 1t was that he uttered
the memorable words that are chiseled
on his monument:
Never mind me: I'm all right. Look
after those other fellows
James Thomas Cruise. the hero of the
Georgia explosion, was a kentuckian. He
was just nineteen years and seven months
of age when death came. His remains
were inferred at Arlington last July, but
the monument was only recently erected.
His father, Maj. Thomas Cruise. is
quartermaster in charge Of the depot at
Boston.
When all the injured had been cared
for after the explosion the injuries OF
Midshipman Cruise were found to be
serious. He was taken to the naval hos
pital at Chelsea, Mass, and three naval
surgeons were detailed to look after him
constantly.
He was cheered by cablegrams from all
over the world praising his gallantry and
sacrifice for his comrades. President
Roosevelt sent him flowers every day.
He finally succumbed to the terrible in
juries he had received.
The monument at Arlington was erected
by the parents of the brave middle 1t
