prisoners - 3 Generals & quite a number of officers. I have been very busy & & very tired. On the night of the [9th?] I assisted in amputating 12 limbs. My God what a sight. Yet I stood it better than I expected. You may expect to hear from me in a few days if I possibly have time to write. N. Smith is all right did not get scratched he was one of the first to enter the fort. Yours Hurredly, J. Rowe.
