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...

G., Sometime Her Majesty's Minister to China and Japan, Vol. 2 of 2: Minister Plenipotentiary to Japan by F. V. Dickins, to China by S. Lane-Poole If in endeavouring thus to elucidate his career and enable those who have no Special knowledge of Japanese affairs justly to appreciate its greatness, I seem to have given more prominence sometimes to the biographer than to his subject, I can only plead that there is very little in this volume which is not founded upon Sir Harry's own despatches, notes, memoranda, and drafts; though of course the full responsibility for every statement and Opinion is my own. So far as the scanty leisure my official duties have left me allowed, I have thus tried to give as full and faithful a presentment of Sir Harry's life in Japan and of his work there and in Korea as the far from copious materials at my disposal have permitted. From Sir Rutherford Alcock, sometime Sir Harry Parkes' chief, and previously Minister to Japan and to China, I have received the most cordial aid and counsel at every stage of my labours. To Mr Satow, now Minister at Tangier; to Mr W. G. Aston, formerly Japanese Secretary to h.ivi. Legation in Japan; to Mr freeman-mitford, m.p.; and to Baron von Siebold, I have to express my heartiest thanks for the constant kindness with which they have responded to my requests - sometimes I fear entailing much labour and research for assistance in putting together these memorials of their former chief. To Mr Y. Uchida, of Legation in London, I have had constant recourse for information, always most kindly and courteously given. In particular I have to thank him for much of the information con tained in the notices [have added in the Appendix of the great Japanese statesmen of the Revolution. To Mr Arthur Winstanley, sometime President of the Yoko hama Chamber of Commerce, and to Mr Chamberlain need I say it - a deep debt of gratitude is owing.
