der Lieutenant Lucas, with the Cuban guides, had reached the summit of ridge overlooking a small valley where there was a house, a well and thicket of some kind of shrub. with great broad, oily leaves. This thicket, which was perhaps an acre in extent, contained the guerrillas The valley was open to 1.-the sea. The distance from the top of the ridge to the thicket was barely POO yards.
 ''The Dolphin had sailed up the coast in line with the advance of the marines,
 ready, to assist in action. Captain FL liott, who commanded 200 marines in this fight, suddenly called ont the sgnalman. He wanted a man to tell. the Dolphin to open fire on the house and the thicket It was a blazing hot day on top of the ridge, with it's shriveled chapparral and it's straight tall cactus plants. In two
 minutes the prostrate marines were sweating like so many hull-buried stok- CTS in the tropics.
 Captain Elliott called out:
 | "'Where is signalman? Who's a sig mailman here?
 | "A red-headed 'mick'--I think his nick
 name was Clancy at any rate it will do 1 to call him Clancy--twisted his head from where he lay on his stomach pumping his Lee, and saluting, said that he was sig mailman.
 There was no regulation flag with the expedition, so Clancy was obliged to tie his blue polkadot neckerchief on the end of his rife. It did not make very good | flag. At first Clancy moved down the safe side of the ridge, and wig-wa gged
 there busily. But what with the flag | the background to ridge being so dark | nas being 70 poor for the purpose and 1 those on the Dolphin did not see it. So | Clancy had to return to the top of the ridge, and outline himself and his flag | against the sky.
 "As soon as the Spaniards caught sight of his silhouette they let so like mad at it. To make things more uncomfortable | for Clancy, the situation demanded that | he face the sea, and turn his back to | the Spanish bullets. This was hard
 game-mark you, to stand with the small of your back to volley firing. Clancy thought so. Everybody there thought | so We all cleared out of his neighbos- hood. If he wanted sole possession of any
 particular spot on that hill he could have
 it for all we would interfere with him.
 ''It cannot be denied that Clancy was in | a hurry I watched him. He was so oc-
 cupied with the bullets that snarled
 close to his ears that he was obliged to
 repeat the letters of his message softly | to himself. It seemed an intolerable time
 before the Dolphin answered the signal.
 Meanwhile we gazed at him, marveling every second, that he had not yet
 ritched headlong. He swore at times.
 ..Finally the Dolphin replied to his | frantic signaling and he delivered his
 message. When his part of the transac-
 tion was finished he dropped like brick l into the firing line and bega' Sto shoot. The blue neckerchief still flu.-<red from | the barrel of his rife. am quite certain that he let it remain tliere until the end of the fight" r
 The official record of John Fitzgerald, concludes as follows:
 .'The Clancy referred to in the fore
 going article was private John Fitzger- aid. us. M c.'
