The Provincials arrived the last of July, and landed to the west of Havana, where stands a small fort known as the Torreon of Chorrera, which was defended with much valor, but compelled to surrender. And they were welcome, beyond a doubt, for nearly half the British army was incapacitated through fevers, and many men had died.
Torreon let the receiver fall back in its socket, and I caught just a glimpse of the look of hate and suspicion which crossed his face as he turned toward Kennedy. When he spoke it was as suavely as if he himself were the one who had planned this little excursion. "It shall be as you wish," he said, leading the way out to the cross-town surface cars.
He opened his eyes resolutely. "We're making too much over a little matter," he said with an obvious briskness which hid the cunning in his mind. "I suppose I've been sticking to things too close. I'll take a run down the line and hunt up some of the old fellows down as far as Torreon at least. I'll rough it a little. I suspect things have been a little too soft for me here.
