Not illustrated. 1894 edition. 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.

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...
