Human Bullets (Niku-Dan): A Soldier's Story of Port Arthur, With an Introd, By Count Okuma, Translated from the Japanese By Masujiro Honda and Alice M. Bacon (Classic Reprint)

In Memory of the Two Sons of General Nogi, who fell in defense of the liberties of Japan and the rights of A sia, one at Nanshan, the other at 203 Meter Hill. The strength of the hills is cruel, When from fortress and redoubt, In the tempest-throes of battle, The red Death flashes out The strength of the hills is holy, Crowned with the heros toil, And the living heart of Freedom Throbs in the bleeding soil! The strength of the hills is Glory, Osons of a dauntless sire, For your deathless love uprises The flame of an altar-fire !I nthe van of martyr-legions Thro the paths of pain ye trod, Ye have joined the viewless armies That march with the hosts of God. Flora B. Harris.
