Total, two hundred and seventy-five men. On turning the curve slowly, within one quarter of a mile of Vienna, we were fired upon by raking masked batteries of, I think, three guns, with shells, round shot and grape, killing and wounding the men on the platform and in the cars before the train could be stopped. When the train stopped the engine could not, on account of damage to some
