Chapter 9

Henry continues walking with the soldiers but runs away when the soldier he is talking to asks him where he was wounded. He was not wounded since he didn't fight so he was ashamed and felt guilty. He then continues walking and finds Jim alive but all bloody and tattered. Jim says he is afraid he will fall and get run over by artilery wagons but Henry tells him that he will take care of him. Jim tells Henry to leave him and go on. Henry keeps asking him to keep walking and that he will get run over, Jim tells him to leave him be and starts convulsing and dies. Who is the other tattered soldier with Henry? I think Jim was a great soldier and died the way he wanted to, in battle.
