Aguinaldo and War Clouds Loom Over Pacific News
The Weekly Sentinel from May 10 1899 comments on Aguinaldo’s delay tactics and the futility of surrender in pursuit of peace. It notes Gen Fred Funston for Filipino strength and ridicules marriage rumors about Mrs George W Chilps. The piece dismisses Boer war optimism and critiques Samoa disorder, praising Leopold of Belgium and recounting confederate General Mahone. It ends with a fable about President M Lovert of France and a dramatic scene with his mother.
