SCENE OF THE BATTLE AT LA GUASIMAS: This
photograph represents the present appearance at the junction of
the roads where the hottest part of the fighting occurred. The
grave of Hamilton Fish, killed at this point, is a short
distance to the left. Our artist and his companions found the
land crabs so numerous at this place that they could scarcely
walk without stepping on them. They varied in size from two
inches to two feet in length and exhibited all the changing
colors of the rainbow. (Cuba, 1898)
