I like to read about Greece
and Cuba, and if I were Grecian I would gladly join in the war.
I hope Greece will win, for I pity the poor Cretans under the
cruel rule of Turkey. Wishing your paper many years of success,
I am,
Your friend and reader,
HAROLD R.
NEW YORK, April 8th, 1897
DEAR HAROLD:
Many thanks for your pretty letter. Write to us again soon.
EDITOR.
DEAR MR. EDITOR:
I want to ask you about the _Cometa_. Did the Admiral ever bring
her into the Havana harbor as he boasted that he would, with
flags flying on her?
Do you think Cuba is going to win? I hope that she will.
Are the Americans going to help them?--and then I know the
Cubans will win. Yours truly,
SYDNEY G.
BALTIMORE, April 9th, 1897.
MY DEAR SYDNEY:
The Spanish Admiral has never brought the _Cometa_ into Havana harbor. He
was just spinning a sailor's yarn, apparently.
We hope that Cuba will win her freedom, and it seems very likely that she
will.
You will see in this number of THE GREAT ROUND WORLD that there
is a chance that the President will try to settle the troubles between
Cuba and Spain.
EDITOR.
