THE WHEAT-FIELD. At the Wheat-field there occurred what is called
the "Whirlpool of the Battle”. The scene as the men advanced and then
retired, fought in a circle, and in and about each other in deadly confusion,
back and forth for seven times makes the title no misnomer. It is truly
said of the Wheat-field and Peach orchard, that upon no other two places
of equal extent on the American Continent were so many human lives lost,
and so much human blood shed.
