The sight was terrifying; the ground
made me think of the yawning era

underbrush had been ripped and
chopped. There remained Of it moth
ing but shreds. The trees had all
been cut off, smashed; not one did |
see standing. They had been shaved
clean off at different distances from
the ground. OF the wood there re.
manned nothing but an indescribable
confusion of trunks and branches,

with corpses. Poor mutilated bodies!
To what odious ordinations they
have been submitted! Here is one

the trunk has crushed him to the

We go away satisfied, proud of
