PASIG CITY, P. I. June 10 '90
Dear Parents—l received your
welcome letter yesterday, and as 1
have a fe w spare moments will an
swer. It fouud me well, we all feel
drowsy and ailing, caused by the hot
weather and not very good drinking
water, but guess we will stand jt
until they send us home, which we
hope won't be long. The Oregons
have goDe, the Nebraskans go next
and we expeat to start about Aug.
1st. We have got tbe Insurgents
pretty wall scattered. We have been
fighting the south line for the past
ten days, that is the regulars have.
I thiuk the Volunteer fighting has
about ended, all we do now is hold
trenches and stay in reserve. Tbe
fighting we are doing now I think
will about end the war, for this is
supposed to be their last stronghold
and they are putting up a hard tight.
They have several Krupp guns and
3 or 4 smoothbore cannon, but they
must go all the same. Although
they are getting lots of our boys, still
there is more falls from beat ex
haustion than from their guns. Moth
er, 1 am afraid you are a little inclin
ed to bo democratic. If you were in
Ibis country and saw these people as
I do, and consider the inducements
Uncle 8am has offered them, you
would think different. These black
devils don't know what freedom is.
They don't know the meuningofthe
word. All Aguinaldo wants is to
get his black hordes into Manila,
and loot tbe city and then goto the
hills again. That is what he and his
followers want, but they will never
get Manila, while Uncle 8am’s boys
are here. The natives, that is the
non-combatants, are returning to our
lines every day by hundreds, and
Geu. Otis is letting them come and
settle down among us and go to
farming again. They say they are
satisfied with the U. S. government.
One good thing happened a few
days ago, GeD. Luna was shot by bis
own soldiers. He was a bitter enemy
of ours. His death will have a great
deal to do with breaking up the In
surgent army. Don’t worry about
me reinlisting, I Lave got enough
of army life to last me the balance
of my days. How time flies, 1 have
been serving my country now 15
months and I have saw some won
derful sceues and changes in that
time. I wish you had some of the
rain we are getting. I am sure we
do not need it here. I thought I
had seen black clouds and thunder
and lightning in Nebraska, but this
country takes the cake.-—Ycurs as
ever.
