Silence in the face of adversity is the father of complicity and collusion, the first cousins of conspiracy..

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Dec. 27.1032—
" .... A detachment of seventy Nicaraguan National Guardsmen,
officered by eight United States Marines,
drove off with heavy casualties an insurgent band
which attacked a troop train near Santa Lucia yesterday.
The crews of two work trains,
on the point of being executed by their rebel captors,
were rescued. ¶ In an hour’s heavy fighting,
twenty-two rebels and three National Guardsmen
were killed and three Guardsmen were wounded.
The number of insurgent wounded is reported
to have been large. ¶
The Guard detachment had been dispatched
over the new railroad from Leon to El Sauce
to clear the surrounding country of guerrila (guerrilla)
bands in preparation for the formal opening of the line
by President Moncada at the end of this month.
The train was halted near Santa Lucia by irregulars
led by the chieftains Umanzor and Benavides. ¶
The Guardsmen went immediately into action,
directed by their commander,
First Lieutenant Lewis B. Puller, U. S. M. C.,
a Virginian and holder of the Navy Cross.
His aides were National Guard Lieutenants Lee, Stevens,
Snyder, Bunn, Pulver, Hays and Lynch,
all marines who have won their spurs in the fighting
with Nicaraguan insurgents in the past four and one-half years. ¶
The Guardsmen captured fifty-two pack animals
and a quantity of rifles, ammunition and supplies. ¶
While the fighting was going on at Santa Lucia,
a National Guard patrol led by native officers
drove off another rebel group which was harassing work
on the railway near El Sauce...."
