take fred upon the Greeks.
During the confusion which followed
5000 Turkish infantry arrived from
Janina and instantly attacked the
Greeks. A desperate and bloody hand
to-hand encounter ensued. The Turks
uttered demoniacal yells and showed
the greatest ferocity, while the Greeks,
who had been without food all night
long and were hopelessly outnumbered,
were taken at considerable disadvan.
taRe An hour after the fight began
two companies Of Turks occupied hill
on the Greek flank and opened a deadly
fire. The Greeks broke in confusion
and fed in panic.
