‎Philippine American War. Swartzlander Louis C.‎

‎Manuscript Archive of Over 100 Letters Written by and to Louis C. Swartzlander While Serving as a Private in the 4th U.S. Cavalry in the Philippines During the Aguinaldo Insurrection‎

‎San Francisco and various locations in the Philippine Islands 1901. Very good. 101 manuscript letters totaling approximately 360 pages and around 38000 words plus an assortment of related correspondence and documents. All letters and documents sleeved in chronological order in two modern three-ring binders. Original mailing folds general overall wear with a few letters closely trimmed and four of the letters incomplete. An important archive documenting the experiences of a young soldier from Omaha Nebraska named Louis C. Swartzlander during his time in training in California and at war in the Philippines at the turn of the 20th century. After graduation from Omaha High School seventeen-year-old Louis Carver Swartzlander 1882-1922 lied about his age to enlist for three years in an Omaha cavalry troop recruited to suppress the Aguinaldo Insurrection also known as the Philippine-American War following U.S. colonial occupation of the Philippines in 1898. Sixty-five of the present letters were written by Private Swartzlander to his family including over twenty from the Presidio in San Francisco while awaiting transport to the Philippines and over forty from military posts during his time in Manila Balinag Bayambang Dagupan and other locations on Luzon before during and after combat against the Aguinaldo insurgents. All of the letters were written during the heart of the conflict between May 17 1899 and September 15 1901. Swartzlander’s letters ultimately shed light on this controversial though obscure episode of the United States's imperialist activities in the Philippines as well as Louis’s other military and battle experiences his impressions of Philippine life culture and internal politics his racial attitudes and much more. In one letter on June 15 1900 Louis mentions the burning of the insurgent town of Dasal Luzon by the 25th Colored Infantry a notable but still-obscure moment in African-American military history. In another letter Louis mentions to his brother that he plans to send him a patch of cloth from a dead insurgent soldier; the collection includes a small rectangular swatch of cloth with the following inscription: "Dead Filipino cut off by Swartzlander 4th Cav."<br /> <br /> The archive also includes over thirty letters written to Louis from his father Dr. Frederick Swartzlander his mother and brother; many of these letters concern their efforts to have Louis discharged from service before his enlistment had ended so that he might join his brother a medical student at Stanford University which the family ultimately accomplished. Following Louis's final letter here on September 15 1901 is a printed special order granting his discharge. Louis then traveled to Palo Alto where he enrolled at Stanford though he apparently did not graduate from there; his obituary in 1922 states that he obtained a medical degree from Creighton University before dying unexpectedly from a short illness.<br /> <br /> The following excerpts from just five of Louis's letters provide an overall picture of his writing style and the content of his letters. We also have a forty-three-page printed document of excerpts from the letters prepared by a previous owner of the archive that we can share upon request providing much more information on the composition of both Louis's and his family's correspondence during this time.<br /> <br /> 1 Louis Swartzlander to his parents San Francisco Ca. May 30 1899: “Today another one of the boys…and I took in Chinatown and it is the dirtiest hole I have ever been in. The streets are of ordinary width although some are about like alleys. All along the sidewalks are chinamen fixing and making opium pipes. You can see Chinese men women and children all the way from 1 to 60 or 70 yrs of age. One street or alley is devoted to the fish market and you can smell it for two blocks and fish! Why I never saw so many fish in a pile in my life all kinds from a devil fish which looks exactly like an octopus only smaller to a shark. Also live turtles by the bushel and all kinds of stuff that nobody but a chinaman could eat. I was vaccinated again today as the other two vaccinations did not take. I hope I will get to go aboard the Sheridan for the Philippines next June 7<br /> <br /> 2 Louis Swartzlander to his parents Manila P.I. July 28 1899: "Well here we are at Manilla all well and healthy. We had an excellent voyage with a peaceful ocean. I saw lots of small flying fish sea gulls sharks etc. We left San Francisco June 24 at 6 oclock and arrived at Honolulu July 2nd. Most of the boys succeeded in going ashore but I could not. We arrived at Manilla July 25th. When about 10 days out after leaving Honolulu we saw an active volcano in the Ladrone Islands. We are stationed about 2 miles from the heart of Manilla. We are stationed in large bamboo barracks each of which will hold about 25. I was in the old walled city and it is a queer place. It is composed mostly of immense cathedrals. The city walls are about 10 feet thick and 15 high but are beginning to crumble as they were built before this century. All stone used in this country is made of cement. There seems to be lots of good fishing here. Yesterday I went out to the famous bone pile that you read about in Omaha. It is a terrible sight with bones piled up and skulls lining the walls but these people don’t seem to care for their dead at all. If the deceased has money he can have a vault if not he goes to the bone pile. It is not so very hot here. At a guess I would say it is about 100 in the sun and 90 in the shade. Tobacco is very cheap here. I can buy a box of good 10 ct cigars for 50 cts American money. I have seen the Pasig river. It separates old Manilla from new Manilla. It is a muddy stream about 200 feet wide with almost no current. This country is covered with palms banana trees etc. All the banana trees are covered with green bananas but none are good to eat as they are too green. The native horses here are about like Shetland ponies and it looks queer to see a troop of the 4th Cavalry mounted on such small horses. We are having the best of eating the best I have had since I enlisted."<br /> <br /> 3 Louis Swartzlander to his brother Manila P.I. December 22 1899: “You seem to think that I am a great fellow just because I came out here. Of course it was hard very hard at first but it is easy now. I am more than pleased to hear that you are doing so fine with your studies and now just keep at them and you will turn out a finely educated man. I am also pleased to hear that you think you will be a doctor as I long ago decided I should. If I can get back to the states and get my discharge we can both study medicine together. Well I have been.in the hospital with the itch but it is now O.K. I will soon again join my troop Fighting K. I am feeling good though not so strong as when I was in the states. Our troop is I believe east of the railroad about 20 miles from here. Say Joe the first chance I get I am going to kill a goo goo niggar for you and if I can I will get a piece of his uniform such as it is and send it to you. I’d get a piece of his doggoned hide if it didn’t stink. Remember this goo goo is to be plugged for you. On the firing line we have a pretty good time. You see when things are quiet we get up at 6 oclock care for our horses eat breakfast lay around until 8 oclock then if we neither go out scouting or drill we have nothing to do until 4 oclock when we again look after our horses eat at 5 answer retreat at 6 oclock and nothing until taps at 9 when we must all be in quarters and lights out. Sometimes we are divided up so that about 3 men are in a shack and then if we can get a candle we play cards tell stories play a mouth organ or whatever there is to pass away the time. Every once in a while the niggars will fire a volley into the town and then we turn out and give them what they need. In the morning we generally find from 5 to 15 dead goo goos laying around. They very seldom hit any of us because they cant shoot and so soon as we yell we charge and they don’t know any thing but to get. Our troop commander will let us get all the chickens we want the pigs are no good but the caribou are O.K. just like beef and so you bet we don’t go hungry so very long at a stretch."<br /> <br /> 4 Louis Swartzlander to his parents Bayambang P.I. June 15 1900: "We are still at Bayamban. We are doing just the same duty as when we first arrived here last November that is two posts to walk one serving as an out post and the other the stables guard. From the present outlook of things we will stay here for the rainy season as our shacks are being repaired and a bamboo stable is being built for our horses. The stable is about 300 feet long by 40 wide and will shelter 11 horses and 15 mules besides 12 native ponies. To give you a description of one of our trips through the country.I don't claim to be a writer or reporter so you must excuse my poor attempt. As our last trip was a fairly good one.I will attempt to tell you about it. We first received orders on the morning of April 15th to be ready for a trip within the next 24 hours and by a little hustling and packing we were soon ready. On the morning of the 16th we saddled up and within a half hour were off.we rode about seven miles to a small town called Urbiztando. At that place we unsaddled our horses first the saddles and other equipments except our guns on three small rafts which were pulled across the river. The command was then given to mount and having done so we started in and in five minutes time every man and horse was safe on the west side of the Agno river. We again saddled up and by riding two miles further arrived at a pretty little town called Mangaterem. The town covers about four square blocks and contains a large church besides several fair sized houses. In front of the church is a large plaza which is about a block square. In one corner of this plaza and beneath a large stone monument are or were buried two American soldiers who were killed while taking the town. We stayed in Mangaterem overnight sleeping out on the plaza. The next morning at 530 we were aroused by first call. We then fell in line for roll call and after this fed and brushed off our horses then ate a breakfast of two slices of bacon four hardtack and a half a cup of coffee. At 615 we saddled up and started for another fair sized town 12 miles distant called Salasa. This town is as well as Mangaterem garrisoned by the 36th U.S.V. There at Salasa you get a fine ocean breeze as we were then getting close to the coast. Upon arriving at Salasa we unsaddled and turned our horses loose in herd and made preparations for the night. At four oclock we caught up our hoses fed and groomed them after which we got our own supper. After this the most of us went down to a river close by and had a fine swim after which we all turned in for a good rest. In the morning after being joined by 50 men of M troop of the Fourth Cavalry we started for Sual a town about 11 miles distance and on the Gulf of Lingayen. We arrived at Sual at about 1 oclock. We were then quartered in the church which was made of bamboo and mud. That evening after having a good dip in the Gulf we rolled in for another good nights rest. In the morning we started for the town of Alaminos which is about the same size as Maregaterem. Here we had to water our horses out of a well as there is no river within two miles distance. We here slept in what appeared to be an old school house or cottage of some sort. Here I bought a package of smoking tobacco and a pipe also a can of jam which came in handy with the hardtack. Well the next morning left for Dasol a town about 17 miles. We arrived at a small town called Balincagin at about 11oclock where we rested a half hour and then started on to Dasal here we arrived at about 3 oclock. Dasal never was a town of much importance but now it is no town at all or at least it was not when we arrived there. The 25th Infantry Colored had a fight there and after driving every insurgent not dead or wounded over the hills and far away they set the town on fire and it has always been an insurgents place of meeting and once before when we were there they shot into us doing no harm however. Well we here slept out on the old plaza and in the morning started to Santa Cruz arriving there at about noon after crossing about forty small rivers. Santa Cruz is a pretty little town situated on the bay. The town itself covers about eight square blocks and contains a large stone church and convent also a school house and several large houses. That is large for this country about the size of a barn in the states. It also contains like all other towns hundreds of little nipa shacks."<br /> <br /> 5 Louis Swartzlander to his parents Bayambang P.I. October 31 1900: "Well the 17th Infantry had another scrap last night at a small town beyond Camaling. I do not as yet know just where it took place but I am told about 20 miles from here. It seems that there were just sixteen American soldiers in the town and when the goo-goos opened up they grabbed their guns and rushed outside their quarters. They then returned the fire hot and heavy for about 5 minutes when they saw that the goo-goos were advancing. At once the command 'fill magazines' was given and then charge. With a yell they were after the goo-goos firing as they charged. Well now no goo-goo can face a hot fire and worse of all the Americans yell and they broke and ran every goo-goo for himself. Our boys could not get close to them as they can run like a deer but when the thing was over 5 dead goo-goos lay dead with holes in them while on our side only one man had been hurt and he only slightly - a Mauser ball had passed through his arm including between the elbow and wrist. He was sent to the Dongupan hospital today. It is estimated that there were 200 bolo men and 25 rifle men and so you can see how easy it is for us to put largely superior numbers to flight. It has been rumored here that after the presidential election is over that the U.S. soldiers are going to make a grand cleaning up of this island and its goo-goos. That will mean that we will show them no mercy and every time we see a goo-goo we will 'soak it to him' you know that that means but I have great doubts as to whether or not they will do any such thing as that would end their trouble too quickly and some of those muck a mucks in Manila would lose a good job. If they wanted to end this trouble all they would have to do is turn the soldiers loose and we wouldn't do a thing to them. As it is we are not allowed to lay a hand on them or to touch a hair of their heads. We will capture 50 or so of them then our officers turn around and put them on confinement for 3 or 4 days and then turn them loose. How are we ever going to end this war when they do that way. I would like to know. But such is the case and I have seen it done several. In all probability if we should capture Aggie they would take him to Manila and give him some good government position. They finally captured Genl. Del Pilar and what did they do turned around and told him if he would take the oath of allegiance to the U.S. that they would turn him loose. Of course he did so for what do these people care for the oath of allegiance and today he is again with the insurgents. I tell you that the people in the U.S. have the wool pulled over their eyes in regards to this matter on Luzon and they will learn after a few thousand more of our boys are killed or die of sickness. This whole thing could have been ended in less than six months at the start but the officers had too good a thing of it and the longer it lasts the better it suits them. When I started to write this I did not intend to criticize the authorities and so will quit writing on this subject. Be sure and do not print in a newspaper what I have here written as I might get into serious trouble."<br /> <br /> 6 Louis Swartzlander to his parents Dagupan P.I. April 18 1901: "I have just returned from an open air concert which was given by the 17th Infantry band on the plaza which is located in the center of Dagupan. The band is composed of nearly thirty pieces and all its members are good musicians. Several of Sousa's pieces were played.as well as.the Star Spangled Banner. The concert lasted nearly two hours.very enjoyable. I am still at 3rd District Headquarters Dagupan as orderly for General Smith. The General himself is at present in the town of Iba to which place he went three days ago for the purpose of inspecting the military prison. The two of Iba is situated in the Zambales province and is about 65 miles from here.we used to pass through Iba on your hikes to Subig.in the early part of 1900. K troop is.on a hike in the mountains in the vicinity of the town of Camaling which is about 12 miles south of Bayambang. I am glad that I am not with them as I have had about all the goose chases that I care to take part in…all the rest of the men in K troop are tired of hiking but that makes no difference for if Captain Benson wishes to go out in the mountains he details about 60 men and they have to go whether they want to or not. Should any man having been detailed to on any such hike fail to do so when hot prevented by sickness or other necessary cause he would be thrown into the guard house and be tried by a general court martial. There was a public hanging in the town of Bennmollie which is three miles west of here.the accused murdered some friendly natives some time ago and when caught was tried by the military authorities found guilty of murder in the 1st degree and was sentenced to hang. The victim dropped at 1023am and was pronounced dead in just 7 minutes. I wished very much to go myself but it being as I was on duty that day I could not; however I will yet have plenty of chances as natives who have been convicted of murders are being hung in different parts of these islands nearly every Friday. I never as yet have witnessed a hanging and I wish to do so before returning to the U.S. Never since last August when you first made application for my discharge did I have the least expectation that it would be granted as I know too too well how hard it is for a soldier in the regular army to obtain a discharge by favor purchase ora ny other way before his time of enlistment has expired. I also know that unless the soldier has a very strong pull in Washington it is almost impossible. I think it best to drop all hopes of my discharge before May 11 '02 at which date they are compelled to let me go and then I will lose no time between here and San Francisco. Heaven help the poor lads who were enlisted in Omaha for the 10th Cavalry and sent to the Philippines. In all probability they will have to serve their entire enlistment over here/ Where the sun is as hot as fire/ Mosquitoes as large as bumble bees/ Where all is mud and mire/ Where nothing grows but mango trees/. And I fear that before they are over here very long they will be singing Army turn backward turn backwards tonight. Out of these islands out of these fights with mosquitoes. Out of these mud holes with mud that will stick to your old army rags until it bakes into brick."<br /> <br /> Louis's letters as well as his family's are generally long and detailed with all but five of them totaling at least two pages and almost half of the letters clocking in at four pages or more. As such this correspondence constitutes a deep and intensely researchable collection documenting Louis's military activities and experiences in the Philippines during an important time in the history of U.S.-Filipino relations as well as how his family dealt with his service on the home front. A wonderful archive with outstanding research potential. unknown‎
