Summary:
Charles introduces Mayor de Spain as "a West Pointer who had gone to Cuba as a second lieutenant" (10). There are several theories about the origin of the "wound" he had when he returned to Jefferson (11). (Historically, white soldiers in the American Army were deployed in Cuba from late June until early August, 1898.)
