Being acquainted with many of the Indians and able to fluently speak their language, I was sent as interpreter . . . . I saw the helpless Cherokees arrested and dragged from their homes . . . .
. . . Many of these helpless people did not have blankets and many of them had been driven from home barefooted.
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.
–Private John G. Burnett,
