Here's what some of the participants had to say about that wall:
- "fallen stone wall" (Lt. John T. Dent, 1st Delaware, Official Report)
- "low stone wall" (William T. Seville, History of the First Regiment Delaware Volunteers)
- "low stone wall" (Maj. Theodore G. Ellis, 14th Connecticut, Official Report)
- "loose stone wall" and "wall built on a ledge of rocks" (Charles D. Page, History of the Fourteenth Regiment Connecticut Vol. Infantry)
- "low stone wall" (Maj. Dunn Browne's Experiences in the Army. Dunn Browne was the pen name of Capt. Samuel Fiske, 14th Connecticut)
- "wall a simple affair ... but the men crouched down by it as their only friendly shelter" and "piling a little the thrown down stones of the wall" (Chaplain H. S. Stevens, Souvenir or Excursion to Battlefields, by the Society of the Fourteenth Connecticut Infantry)
