Dear mother : We are here in Manila. It took us twenty-eight days steady sailing to get here. We stopped six days in Honolulu. One man died on the Senator. He was not a soldier , but a sailor. The Valencia came with us. We had nice weather and that was in our favor. The mumps was the only sickness we had on board. I had them when we got on shore , and I am just ; etting over them now. It has rained most of the time since we landed here ; aut the weather is not so very hot at present. We are encamped on the Spaniard's parade ground , inside of the walled city. The wall is about twenty feet high around this part of the town , and it is about six miles around it. The Spanish army is just across the street , and the captured rifles are stacked , waist high , nside. The parade grounds are walled with mortar balls and shells. The na tives are copper-colored , antiquated- coking creatures , and I have not made any acquaintances among them. We are going to move into barracks in a day or two and it will be better for us. Do I like Manila ? Nit ; but as soon as > eace is declared I can get out and I will. Mother , you need not worry about me rushing into danger needlessly ; for I lave no inclination to do so. But as I am a soldier , I hope I will always be villing to do my duty , and that means langer enough sometimes. It is clean out of the world here and t oppresses me. I wish I was at home vith you. I miss THE McCooK TRIBUNE. I ften wish for it on Saturday night ; and miss the old familiar faces in my far away Nebraska home. New scenes , lowever grand they may be , can not be ompared to home ; and I wish I could ee the prairies out there covered with now and throw a few balls time about with the boys. But in less than six months I hope to come home. I could write a week , but the mail goes out soon and I must close. Give my love to all and receive the same from your loving on.
