But as the Confederate reserves approached the Dunkard Church, Sumner, whom McClellan had ordered to cross Pry's Bridge with the Second Army Corps, threw three divisions against the West Wood and the Roulette House. In three lines, up the slope from the Antietam, at sixty yards distance and covering a wide front, came Sedgwick on the right, French on the left, and Richardson to the left rear.
"I think they'd be only too happy to have you come. But you wouldn't know what to do with each other, indeed, Miss Vance." "Perhaps we shall like each other," said the girl, bravely, "and then we shall know. What Church are they of?" "I don't believe they're of any," said Beaton. "The mother was brought up a Dunkard." "A Dunkard?"
However, when Benjamin Speare, his wife and six children were massacred on Dunkard Creek early in June, with similar bloody murders being perpetrated at Muddy Creek, all on Pennsylvania soil, by John Logan, the Mingo chief, there was less foolish talk north of the line.
The enemy, no less exhausted, halted and lay down beyond the turnpike; and while the musketry once more died away to northward of the Dunkard Church, Jackson, rallying his brigades, re-established his line along the edge of the West Wood. Near the church was a portion of Walker's division.
"The Dunkard church," said one of the officers. "I think we'd better not go any closer. The Johnnies must be lying thick close at hand."

"How long does it take you to get 'em from a, b, c's to the Testament?" inquired the patriarchal Dunkard. "That depends upon the capacity of the pupil," was Mr. Fairchilds's profound reply. "Can you learn 'em 'rithmetic good?" asked Nathaniel Puntz.
Before the Dunkard church Starke, commanding Jackson's old division, was killed, Jones was wounded, Lawton wounded. Many field officers were down, many, many of lesser rank. Of the blue, Mansfield was killed, Hooker was wounded, and Hartsuff and Crawford. The grey had pressed the blue back, back! Now in turn the blue drove the grey.
We push off slowly from the stone pier, and all is safe. When thee builds a prison, thee had better build with the thought ever in thy mind that thee and thy children may occupy the cells.
