Banked solidly along every foot OF
the line Of march, the myriads Of
the city crowded. Every inch Of pave

piles was solid with humanity. Every
street window of every sky-scraper
was full and from hundreds Of feet
above the pavement, little dots could
be seen, men looking down on these
American boys who died in Mexico

people their loyalty and sacrifice give
