Price was the only bright spot for the Rebs at Prarie Grove

Price wasn't at Prairie Grove.

Hindman was in command.

I hate to admit you are right. I meant to say Pea Ridge. And I've been to both sites dozens of times.

My dear mother:- I have come safely through two more terrible engagements with the enemy, that at South Mountain and the great battle of yesterday (Antietam). Our splendid regiment is almost destroyed. We have had nearly 400 men killed and wounded in the battles. Seven of our officers were shot and three killed in yesterday's battle and nearly 150 men killed and wounded. All from less than 300 engaged. The men have stood like iron....Maj.
