sent for a reiuforce- 3S 354 MEMOIRS OF A ment, which had been promised him; no attention was paid to his request. He ordered two brigade com- manders to bring their troops to his support; they properly refused to move from the positions to which they had been assigned, without orders from their commander-in-chief. He had six thousand men within his lines, and these ought to have been sufficient for the defense of the castle and its out- worl^s, but they were not. For onward and upward came the... gallant heroes of the Republic of the North, sweeping from their front all who dared to oppose, — leaving behind in their bloody tracks the dead and the dying, then planting their ladders they scaled the walls of the castle. Chapultepec was in their posses- sion, and the flag of our Republic was floating from its summit.
One cheer of victory rolled its volume of sound into the terror stricken city, and then " Forward !" was again the word of command.
Worth's command took the road to the San Cosme garita on the north; Quitman followed the fugitives from Chapultepec by the aqueduct, which entered the city by the Belen garita at the south-west angle of the city.
