To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Captain Werner, First Georgia, and Edward Postelle, of the Eighteenth Georgia, were killed, Lieutenant Frederick Tupper, Eighteenth Georgia Battalion, severely wounded. Colonel Graham reports that he captured 130 and buried over 100 of the Federal troops. The Federal losses on the mornings of the loth and nth, as officially reported by General Strong, who commanded in person on both occasions, aggre- gated 436. In an official letter from General Gill- more to General Halleck reporting the succe...ss of his descent on Morris Island, he says, speaking of the assault on the morning of the nth: "The parapet was gained, but the support recoiled under the fire to which they were exposed and could not be got up. Our loss in both actions (the mornings of the loth and nth) will not vary much from 150." A more substantial and obvious reason for the failure of the assault will naturally suggest itself to the most causal reader than that assigned by Gen- eral Strong, namely, the brief halt of the Seventy- sixth Pennsylvania.
