Ned Myers Or A Life Before The Mast

I walked over the ground where the explosion took place. It was a dreadful sight; the dead being so mutilated that it was scarcely possible to tell their colour. I saw gun-barrels bent nearly double. I think we saw Sir Roger Sheafe, the British General, galloping across the field, by himself, a few minutes before the explosion. At all events, we saw a mounted officer, and fired at him. He galloped up to the government-house, dismounted, went in, remained a short time, and then galloped out of town.Cooper, James Fenimore is the author of 'Ned Myers Or A Life Before The Mast ' with ISBN 9781419136849 and ISBN 1419136844.
