Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Twenty-Seven Years in Canada West, Vol. 2 of 2: Or, the Experience of an Early Settler
When our army attacked Fort Erie by assault, we were beaten back with much slaughter; great numbers of our men falling killed or wounded under the fire of the enemy. AS daylight appeared, Dunlop, whose vocation, be it remembered, was that of man-carer not of man-killer, ran through the firing to witness the scene, when seeing that some of the wounded could not get to the rear beyond the range of the enemy's fire, he gallantly caught up a poor fellow and carried him to a place of safety, immediately returning to take up another, and so on until he had thus taken bodily posses sion of ten or twelve of his patients.
