The story

In June 1864, a group of soldiers from Company I, 19th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment are captured at the Battle of Cold Harbor in Virginia.

The group encounters Dick Potter, a former comrade who was captured at the Battle of Antietam.

Some of them delight in coaxing the prisoners to step over the "dead line" fence under the guise of trading for food, resulting in the prisoners being shot dead.
