Excerpt: ... the defenders some 200 were made prisoners, most of them severely wounded; the remainder were slain. The last scenes of the bloody tragedy are best told in Mr Mounsey's own words--' Saigo was among the first to fall, wounded by a bullet in the thigh. Thereupon Hemmi Jiuroda, one of his lieutenants, performed what samurai consider a friendly off1ce. At one blow of his keen heavy sword he severed his chiefs head from his shoulders, in order to spare him the disgrace of falling alive into his enemy's hands.' He then committed haraktri. The hero's head was buried but subsequently discovered by a coolie. Around Saigo ' fell one hundred of the principal samurai of the Satsuma clan, who had sought to protect their chief to the last, and refused to survive him.' The head, ' disfigured and ghastly, clotted with blood and earth, ' was brought the next day to Admiral 1877 Kawamura, who ' reverently washed the head with 'kt-49 his own hands, as a mark of respect for his former friend and companion in arms during the war of the Restoration.' The grave of Saigo is visited, adds Mr Mounsey, by thousands who come to offer up their prayers at the tomb of the hero, around whose martial figure a host of traditions have already collected. The popular belief is that ' the spirit of the great general has taken up its abode in the planet Mars, ' and that ' his figure may be seen when this star is in the ascendant.' But ' the spirits of his followers have not, according to the popular belief, soared so high; for the people say that a new race of frogs has appeared in Kiushiu; that the spirits of the dead rebels have animated this race, and so imbued it with their own courageous nature, that the frogs attack man whenever they see him, and never desist from their attacks...

He took no heed of the symptoms of serious illness, and increased them by his unremitting attention to work, which no persuasion or remonstrance would induce him to relax. One day he was seen painfully gathering up some papers that had fallen on the floor, and his reply to an entreaty that he would lie down and rest was Sir Harry all over--' My dear fellow, the Government don't pay me for lying down!' He was working within three days of his death, and it was work, not the ordinary attack of remittent fever from which he was suffering, that killed him--gently, in his sleep, --on Sunday morning, March 22nd, 1885. 'He never allowed his brain a moment's rest, and his ceaseless mental activity rendered him abnormally sensitive to an illness which, though not light, would not, at the stage which it had reached, have given cause for alarm in ordinary circumstances.' So wrote Hillier at the time, and O'Conor, in announcing the sad tidings to Consul-General Hughes (26th March) said the same: -- 'Something seems to have suddenly given way in the brain or the heart: in fact he died from the unceasing strain put on a brain requiring long rest and repose. He had not a thought but what was devoted to his country's interest, and a truer patriot or more single-minded, able Minister England has never had. I little thought that he would be cut off in the prime of his life and labours, and I cannot say how sincerely I mourn him. I had learnt in the time I had had the pleasure of serving under him both to admire his remarkable talents and to esteem him above men as the devoted servant of his country. * I saw [added Mr O'Conor in a later letter] that the country had lost a great Englishman, and that British interests had lost their ablest.
