Only 62 men went with Walker on the first
expedition. One of these men a man
named Anderson. who was elected captain
Of the forces. There is a chance that Capt.
Anderson Is still alive. Mr.. Baker is said to
have met him In Kentucky a few days ago.
Capt. Anderson. the Kentuckian. was the
hero OF a remarkable adventure upon the first
landing Of the expedition In Nicaragua. Like

most remarkable charge known to military
history unless there be foundation in fact for
Kipling's yarn of the assault at Lungtenpen.
The beleaguered garrison in the adobe hut
was nearly dead from thirst. It was decided
that notwithstanding the great numbers Of
the enemy a charge must be made and the
line Of the besiegers be broken through at the
center. Anderson couldn't walk a step. let
