Havana Cemetery Notes and Civic Monument Reflections
The narrator recalls Havana's Cristobal Colon cemetery with lush avenues, tropical flora, and a city monument to fallen volunteer firemen funded at $24,000. He laments pauper burials, contrasts grand funerals with stark neglect, and recalls suburban Vedado scenes, US soldiers, and governor's palace while warning of a creeping disease and endorsing Dr Miles Nervine as a cure aid.
