He was in a measure forced to remain with Brockelsby and Brockman, hoping they would be moved to pay him according to his worth and dreaming of some contingency which might place in his hands the management of an important case with the resulting enhancing of his reputation. On the morning after he had received the dissertation of the hakim, Mr.
But he was that sanctified and stubborn Better to suffer stripes for the testimony of Christ, he says, 'than to fall by the sin of denial! Then they drug him to the bank, one on each side, and says, 'We baptise you in the holy name of Brockman, and in they dumped him backwards, mind you! I saw then they was in a slippery place where it was deep and the current awful strong.
Colonel Brockman, senior Colonel present, was also wounded, and Colonel Brown, of the Fourteenth Regiment, assumed command then or a little later. Soon the order was given to advance to the outer line. We did so with a cheer and a double-quick, plunging through mud knee deep and getting in as best we could. Here, however, lay Harris' Mississippi Brigade. We were ordered to close to the right.
Albert Doninger, age 20, wounded in left arm. Brockman B. Armstrong, age 35, wounds on head. E. J. Shapeero, age 24, wounded in right leg. Carl Burke, age 25, shot in back and shoulder. Ira Luft, age 27, shot in right side of back. George Turnquist, age 26, wounded in left leg. George Brown, age 21, shot in back. D. J. McCarthy, age 37, shot in side of head and in right leg.

Then we had it hot. Brockman shot away all his cannon-balls he had sixty-one and drew back while he sent to Quincy for more.
He has had a steam-engine constructed on his own premises, and under his personal superintendence; and he grinds his own flour as well as that of his neighbours. The neighbouring estate of W. L.

We left Hall's Creek, on our return journey, on March 22, 1897. Taking the road to Flora Valley we passed Brockman where, by the way, lives a famous person, known by the unique title of "Mother Deadfinish." This good lady is the most curious of her sex that I have ever seen; now a little dried-up, wizened old woman of Heaven knows what age, she was in her younger days a lady of wonderful energy.
On Saturday, the 12th, a flag of truce was brought into the city, and with it a note to the commander at Nauvoo, stating that if they did not surrender they would have to take the consequences. Major Clifford replied that he had been sent by the governor to uphold the laws and that he was going to do it, advising Brockman to disband his men.
Permission had been granted him by Brockman to recross the river on some needful errands; and, having once proved the extreme sensitiveness, not to say irritability, of those in temporary command, he was now resolved to give as little éclat as possible to certain superior aspects of his own sanctity.
