CHAPTER V.
Before Aguinaldo's attempt to enter Manila the friendly natives outsidethe city were suffering from a fatal epidemic of some character, apparently so, judging by the number of caskets taken outside. Thiscontinued for several days; one or two caskets every day were allowed topass out by the guards, although orders were issued to search all boxes, trunks and baggage; yet these caskets were allowed to pass throughunmolested for about fifteen days. Finally the guard's suspicion wasarouse...d by these frequent burials and it was decided to open a casket, which was packed full of Mauser rifles. This ended the funerals outside. This demonstrates the trickery and smuggling schemes of these people.
I have known prisoners to escape by exchanging clothing with theirwives, who were permitted to visit their husbands in jail, the manpassing out and leaving the woman in prison. A great many prisonersescaped in this way before the scheme was discovered.
Dummy guns and soldiers were placed in forts in a manner to deceiveAmericans as to the strength of the works, but the Americans were not tobe bluffed so easily and this scheme was worthless.
