[Footnote 5: It was Philip II. who gave to the Havana a coat of arms, in

[Footnote 6: The "Annual Register" states that but 2,500 of the
conquerors were fit for duty when the Havana surrendered. The Boston
"Gazette" says 3,000, and that the arrival of reinforcements was
critical. Even disease could not break down armies in those days. The
Spaniards had 6,000 sick.]
[Footnote 7: The writer is known to the publishers of the "Atlantic
Monthly": he is one whose word is not and cannot be called in question;
and he pledges his word that the above is exact and _proven_ fact.
Horace Mann, years ago, made public some similar cases.]
