Capt. Shortland was from this time busily occupied with the turnkeys in the square, receiving and taking care of the wounded. Ensign White remained with his guard at the breach, and Lieuts. Avelyne and Eortye, the only other subalterns known to 233 have been present, continued in the square with the main bodies of their respective guards. The time of the day, which was the officers' dinner hour, will in some measure explain this, as it caused the absence of every officer from the pri- son whose... presence was not indispensable there. And this circumstance, which has been urged as an argument to prove the intention of the prisoners to take this opportunity to escape, tended to in- crease the confusion, and to prevent those great exertions being made, which might perhaps have obviated a portion at least of the mischief which ensued. At the same time that the firing was going on in the square, a cross fire was also kept up from several of the platforms on the walls round the pri- son where the senteries stand, by straggling parties of soldiers who ran up there for that purpose.
