The groans of the wounded Yank reached the alert ears of his sightless Confederate neighbor, who called to him, asking him the nature and extent of his wounds. On learning the serious nature of them, he said: Now, Yank, I cant see, or Id get out of here mighty lively. Some darned Yank has shot away my eyes, but I feel as strong otherwise as ever. If you think you can get on my back and do the seeing, I will do the walking, and well sail into some hospital where we can both receive surgical treatment. J. O. Smith (Roulette Farm Field Hospital)
