Some of the soldiers wept profusely, and there was qoite a pathetic aspect to the affair. As the s lip swoog away from the pier the soldiers on board of her raised a faint obeer, and the women proceeded to the sea wall, where they stood for boors waving their handker? chiefs not il the San Francisco was only a speck on the horizon.
