A Mother's War Sacrifice to Save Her Son
A grieving New York mother, Mrs. Williams, disguises as a man to join the Cuban fight for her son Roger Williams. After arduous trek to Santiago de Cuba, she finds him wounded on the battlefield, carries him down a slope, and surgeons declare the wound grave yet hopeful. Her endurance and faith sustain both as Roger recovers under care.
