Butler follows Marshall; but from the Clark papers he got the right number of men engaged.

Marshall gives a few valuable facts; but he is all wrong on certain important points.

McClung's ornate narrative, that usually followed, hangs on the very slenderest thread of truth; it is mainly sheer fiction.

Prolix, tedious Collins follows the plan he usually does when his rancorous prejudices do not influence him, and presents half a dozen utterly inconsistent accounts, with no effort whatever to reconcile them.
