He declares posltively that the bashl bazouks and Kurds who followed the retreating Hulgarlans massacred and mutilated the I'ulgarian wounded ln an Hppnlllng manner. The Ittcky ones were thoae who were kllled outright by bullets, for the way in whl< h the Kurdlah devlla had mangled the help less wounded was awful.
