Governor Miller. though great.

know that he should drown in a mar

he could swim. But when the boat
turned over the King of Balawan. the
savior of the people. the man who had
started the thousands on the road to

Palawan the gloom Of the great loss.

at a standstill and It's future is in

Before a congressional committee
last winter Major General Bell chief
of stan for the army, was telling of

service and Of the effective work they
were doing. Lieutenant Miller was
cited as the most prominent Of these.
General Bell told Of his work, and
concluded by saying:

not by a regiment Of troops"
