Saturday Kebiiary I Wo fought all night and tho next day and didnt quit until four oclook Mon day afternoon Then wo went back to camp packed our boxes rolled our blankets filled our haversacks full of shells and Rtarted out again Wo marched about two miles toward the water works and rested there till noon Then wo started for tho water works again which were about six miles from camp Wo hadnt more than started when the insurgents opened lire on us from a hill where they had intrenched them selves Wo got under cover 11s soon as possible and tho Utali battery returned tho fire It only took a few shots to knock their trenches all to pieces Com pany C was in tho lead all the way After wo got tlio insurgents out of tho trenches and got on tho hill wo could see them going over the other hill In a few moments wo were on tho other hill and there wo fought for about 15 minutes I tell you tlio bullets How around us for awhile but we didnt no tice that so much for wo wero shooting all the time us fast as we could load Five of our boys wero wounded They are at the hospital now Wc aro still at Camp Santa Mesa The regiment is at tho waterworks camping in shelter tents If this trouble hadnt come wo would probably have been on our way home within a month Astit is wo shall have to whip tho insur gents first and thero is no telling when we shall get away I havent been teeling well for tho past week I was in tho hospital for three days Tho smell of tho medicine was horrid and I couldnt stand it I told tho doctor I was feeling well and got out of thero and went out to Camp Santa Mesa Several

company of insurgents would comoaud fire 11 shower of bul lets at us In the clay time wo would march up into the mountains and look for the enemyE Some times wo would find them but mostly wo wouldnt Every day wo would burn a village Tho Washington and California regi ments havo been fighting jteadily for two weeks They are two miles north east of us Tho last battle wo had was at the waterworks Our captain was shot twice nnd our second lieutenant once Both will recover We only havo five wounded besides Captain Lieu After our officers wero shot Co M was sent out to tako our plucewhilo we wero
