To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
97 tailed in a subsequent chapter. And he might well pause and reflect before he entered upon the Herculean task of cleaning out such an Augean den !
The burying-ground, to which a slight reference has been made, was probably the most horrible place under that name which can be well conceived. The corpses of the dead were not buried ; they were only slightly cov ered with loose dirt, quick-lime having been previously scattered over them to insure more rapid decomposition. On any day the curious... visitor to this necropolis could be satisfied how little was required to dispose of a mortal man after his spirit had left his body.
The trenches into which the remains were cast were dug not more than three feet deep, frequently not more than two, and were in long lines parallel to each other. Into these were thrown the bodies of the Federal soldiers no box or coffin was permitted no decent shrouding even in the ragged blanket was allowed. The clead-wag- on, drawn by four horses, went constantly back and forth from the hospital to the trenches bearing its load of death, and supervised by negroes.
