The Late Battle on the Upgirl Near Ea Pesthe'ss
A chaotic Civil War narrative describes a major engagement with heavy losses among Union and Confederate forces. It details shelled banks of a river, ferries, landings, and brutal hand to hand fighting, including heroic acts by Captains Meara and O Meara, massed regiments from Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and the perilous crossing of the island. The account covers wounded, deaths, and the chaotic hospital scene, with officers and soldiers ferrying the wounded and recounting the bravery displayed under fire.
