Cruz Among them were some who

The fact that these veterans of the

efforts OF Commander Mutton. The
department. which ordered the Mon

They we're not when they went to
Vera Cruz; they were Americana,
every one OF them: and with no diff
ference in their Americanism because
OF he stock from which they came
Therefore they were in a peculiar
sence OF our blood and they proved it
by showing that they were Of our
spirit-that no matter what their de-
rivation: no matter where their peo-
pie came from. they thought and wish

American; and the flag under which
they served was a flag in which the
