Other heroines Included Mexican tele
phone girls, who remained at their posts
until shells cut the wires and partially
demolished tho telephone building. ;
Mis. Wilson, although realising the
danger of a massacre of Americans, pre
served the gaiety and spirits of the
refugees and succeeded In making them
forget their position. Mrs. Hudson re
fused to leave her husband's , office
throughout the week and entertained
and fed the newspaper men and cititen
refugees. Not until last Sunday would

Speaking six 'languages, Miss 'Hait

cheer them. ,: -. . , -
Only the American newspaper corre
