David was not a speller: "to rite/rite a Leter to you to Let yow now that I am well at this time . i am in the tens . think well stay here this winter. worth we hant had any supper here worth wile to menth here". " General Prentiss having already surrendered with a part of his command the Fourteenth was left in advance of all that remained but completely enclosed receiving the enemy's fire from three directions. The regiment still kept its ranks unbroken and held its position facing the enemy but the men were almost completely exhausted with a whole day of brave and steady fighting and many of them had spent their whole stock of ammunition. It was therefore useless to think of prolonging a resistance which could only have wasted their lives to no purpose and at about a quarter to six P. M. surrendered them and myself prisoners of war. I have only to add that I feel under the deepest obligation to both officers and men of my regiment for their admirable conduct through the day. This was so complete and free from exception that it would be impossible to mention individuals without doing injustice to the rest. Their steadiness and courage the accuracy of their fire and precision of all their movements entitle them to the highest credit and their general demeanor both upon the battle field and in the trying scenes through which we passed as prisoners of war will always be remembered by me with pride and gratification." - Col. W. T. Shaw. unknown
