I cannot believe how many soldiers have come in from the battlefield. I think at this point it must be on the upwards of 5,000 soldiers with casualties. The battle of Antietam Creek sure is a bloody one. What a shame. My care to the wounded can only go so far. Amputation after amputation it only gets harder and harder to see the intense pain they go through. One soldier came in with a bullet wound above the elbow.

With little to no disinfectant, infection was on the rise in each patient. I wonder when Clara is going to try and scavenge for more supplies. At the start she brought in four wagons filled with all sorts of supplies for the nurses and surgeons on site. But with each and every patient that number is getting lower and lower. I am so thankful for her. Without her I do not know what we would have been able to do. When she came I…

population of the animals; as the animals grew scarce the Indians had to expand their historic hunting grounds. Escalating conflicts over hunting territories grew into war between Creeks and Choctaws in the 1760s. Native American warfare was nothing like the warfare of Eastern Europe. Garcilaso de la Vega described Indian warfare as consisting mainly of “ambushes and subtlety” and only rarely of pitched battles. Casualties were generally light. Occasionally, the Indians “went so far as to burn…
