First Sentence: A government commission had kept me busy in Havana from January far into the scorching month of July, but my business was finished at last, and after a closing week devoted to amusements mostly, such as a day at Cerito to witness a cock-fight, a visit to the opposite shore of Regia, and assisting at a bull-fight, enjoying the ballet at the Tacon Theater, and driving in the Paseo, we were about to return to the States by way of New Orleans. (New York Weekly edition)
Last Sentence: As the dandy captain, in his striking fancy costume, went on shore with his affianced bride, the crew of the brigantine, who had now learned the facts of the case, gave them three times three hearty cheers. (New York Weekly edition)
