“Our men killed them with the bayonets and the but[t]s of there [sic] guns and every other way until they were lying eight or ten deep on top of one enuther [sic] and the blood almost s[h]oe [sic] quarter deep.” Another soldier in the same regiment wrote: “The Bayonet was plunged through their hearts & the muzzle of our guns was put on their temple & their brains blown out others were knocked in the head with butts of our guns. Few would succeed in getting to the rear safe.”
