Unofficial letters of an official's wife [by] Edith Moses.

UNOFFICIAL LETTERS OF strange that such leaders should impose on the masses of the ignorant who believe all they say. I think our guard was rather disappointed that the fiesta went off without any trouble; one of the boys told me he was " aching for a scrap," but another said he didn't want " to kill no niggers, they hadn't done nothing to him." It is a miserable life-that of a soldier in peace-and I don't wonder these boys would like to see a little active service.
