"I saw the helpless Cherokees arrested and
dragged from their homes, and driven at the
bayonet point into the stockades. And in the
chill of a drizzling rain on an October morning I
saw them loaded like cattle or sheep into six
hundred and forty-five wagons and started toward
the west....On the morning of November the 17th
we encountered a terrific sleet and snow storm
with freezing temperatures and from that day
until we reached the end of the fateful journey
on March the 26th 1839, the sufferings of the
Cherokees were awful. The trail of the exiles was
a trail of death. They had to sleep in the wagons
and on the ground without fire. And I have known
as many as twenty-two of them to die in one night
of pneumonia due to ill treatment, cold and
exposure..." Private John G.
Burnett Captain Abraham McClellan's
Company, 2nd Regiment, 2nd Brigade, Mounted
