To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The volleys of the squad drawn up at the grave-side for the final salute were probably the only ceremony. The prayer we have made this afternoon is no doubt the first that the grave has ever known. Even Samuel Sewall so hated the idea of a burial sendee at a grave that he once went away from the house of a friend without following the body to the churchyard. Who were the forty slain? We shall never know with certainty. None can tell us who were left in the fort, and the dead of Plymouth and Con...necticut are very imperfectly recorded. Eight or nine for Plymouth and about forty for Connecticut are the numbers handed down, but the names we know in a few cases only. The five captains, there can be little doubt, rest there, Davenport, Johnson, Gardiner, Gallup and Marshall, and probably Seely also, who is said to have been shot by Joshua Tift, and who died of his wound in a few days. Corporal John Edwards of Wethersfield and Ebenezer Dibble of Windsor are there and some others have been named, but we do not know whether they died at Narra- 82 gansett or on Rhode Island.
