A little later the Oregon joined the New York intending 8-inch shells into the city of Santiago. This was kept up until 1.40 P. M. By that time General Duffield had sent a message saying that his troops could not cross the stream, but would return to Altares.
"Your husband's back pay," the merchant said, taking down a ledger from the shelf and turning rapidly over the leaves. "I think that you are under a delusion, Mrs. Hudson. Let me see Dawson, Duffield, Everard, Francis, Gregory, Gunter, Hardy. Ah, here it is Hudson, boatswain of the Black Eagle. The wages which he received amounted, I see, to five pounds a month.
When Bradford, entering the room and all smiles, said: "Come, let's go to the Neals," he answered: "No, I think I shall rest tonight; I am moody and prefer solitude." "Well, I'll go for Duffield. Pleasant dreams, John, as happy as mine shall be; so long!"
