In every direction I moved, there were the graves of the slain, the National and the Rebel soldiers being buried side by side.

Few of the graves were marked, as the hurry of interment had been great.

I fear that many of those graves, undesignated and unfenced, have long since been leveled.

A single year, with its rain and its rank vegetation, would leave but a small trace of those mounds.
All through that forest the camps of our army were scattered.

During the first few days after the battle they showed much irregularity, but gradually took a more systematic shape.
