Capiz is situated on a river, and is several miles inland. Small steamers can ascend the stream, but large vessels have to lie some distance offshore on account of shoals. We arrived in the middle of the night, as usual, and were forced to wait until morning in a miserable shed in the midst of a mangrove swamp, w^here we were devoured by mosquitoes and made generally wretched. At daybreak we got a boat and sent our baggage on to town by water, going overland ourselves. On arriving at Capiz, we ...went to the tidbunal and asked for accommodation. It did not seem worth while to take a house, as we planned to remain but a few days. We, no doubt, looked rather seedy, after our night in the shed, and the teniente primero, who hap- pened to be in charge, refused to take us in until we had visited the crobernadorcillo and secured his kind PAN AY 239 permission to avail ourselves of the common right of travellers. This was rather the coolest piece of impu- dence that had been shown us. We asked the fcnicutc if he could read, and on his answering in the affirmative, presented Weyler's order for his consideration.
