#AK 5 And no man who beheld the passing of those wagons, nor the slaughter that remained upon the field, would thereafter speak lightly of the glory of war; neither did any among the faithful of my own congregation. 6 And when both armies were departed, I stood nigh unto our house of prayer, which had been made a place of slaughter, and was pierced through with many bullets. And the brethren came forth with fear from their houses to bury the dead; and they rejoiced greatly when they found me alive and unhurt. 7 And for the burying of the fallen, the government of the United States did promise a dollar for every man that was laid to rest. And there went a report that a certain man, not of the brethren, had cast many bodies into a dry well, and taken the money unto himself. 8 And Elder David Long said, Do not grieve overmuch, my friends. We shall bury the dead, and make our meetinghouse as it was before. If the brethren have willing hands, all this shall soon be but an unhappy memory.
