We since know, that after the battle they did take care of our wounded, and treat them well: let all justice be done. Almost every man we tallied with belonged to a different regiment from the last. They were chiefly from Rhode Island, Connecticut, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin--I did not see any soldiers from Maine--New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, or Pennsylvania; but of course I speak only of our part of the road.

I ordered Clark to cover him with his rifle, and revolver in hand, ordered him to dismount and surrender. He cried out, Who are you? answer, Vermont! Then raise your piece, Vermont; I am Col. Duryea of the Zouaves; and so it was. His gay-looking red boys just appeared turning the corner of the road, coming towards us.
