Then came interviews with Captain Smith, Doctor Porter, Captain Marsh, Fred Girard, and the stories of General Terry, of Curley, of some of the wounded, and of the death of Charlie Reynolds. During a lull when Carnahan's key for a moment ceased clicking, Lounsberry flung over to him a copy of the New Testament, exclaiming: "Take this! Fire it in when you run out of copy. Hold the wires. Tell 'em it's coming and to hold the key!" Now followed the full list of the killed and wounded, and now, in ...the early morning hours, the message written by Captain Smith for the widows at Fort Lincoln, which was being carried to them by the Far West, dropping down to the fort with the wounded. Through the day the story grew until, when it was finished, more than 15, 000 words had been transmitted. It cost the New York Herald $3, 000 but it was worth the money, for it was the biggest "beat" in newspaper history. The Herald at once adopted Kellogg as having been its special correspondent.
