Civil War
TENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY
Partially recovering from this shock I sprang to my feet and commenced running toward the regiment, but had gone only a short distance when I was struck in the right heel by a musket ball. I again fell to the ground, either from exhaustion or the injuries I had received, I hardly know which. A moment's delay was fatal. The enemy came rushing upon me, and I found myself a prisoner in his hands.
During all the time I was with the regiment in this contest, both officers and men con-
ducted themselves with great coolness and courage.
