who saw the battle, and then when
brought to Juarez, wounded, uttered
no complaining words.
Except for the pallor OF their faces
and the blc0dstains on their clothing,
those who watched them being taken
from the trains could not have told that
they were suffering, because scarcely
groan was heard. No higher tribute

comrade and carried to an antiquated
coach, which was doing service as an
