As the British Officer came in, Paleface demanded his sword. He hesitated about giving it to him,
probably thinking it was derogatory to his dignity, to surrender to a private all over begrimed with dust and
powder and that some Officer should show him the courtesy to receive it.
Just at that moment, Col. Smiley came up and cried, with a harsh oath, 'Give it up-give it up to him in a
minute.' The British Officer quickly handed his weapon to Paleface, holding it in both hands and making a very
polite bow. A good many others came in just about the same time.
...On the opposite side of the brestwork there was a ditch about ten feet wide, made by the excavation of
the earth, of which the work was formed. In it, was about a foot or eighteen inches of water, and to make in the
more difficult of passage, a quantity of thornbush had been cut and thrown into it. In this ditch a number of
British soldiers were found at the close under the brestwork, as a shelter from our fire. These, of course, came in
and surrendered.
When the smoke bad cleared away and we could obtain a fair view of the field, it looked, at the first
glance, like a sea of blood. It was not blood itself which gave it this appearance but the red coats in which the
British soldiers were dressed. Straight out before our position, for about the width of space which we supposed
had been occupied by the British column, the field was entirely covered with prostrate bodies. In some place
they were laying in piles of several, one on the top of the other."
PLEASE HELP ME SUMMARIZE 4-5 sentences PLEAS

At first, the Officer was reluctant to give his sword to Paleface but ended up relinquishing it to him after Colonel Smiley ordered it. A fire was set in the ditch and several British were found. They quickly surrendered to preserve their lives. After the smoke had cleared the soldiers could see the aftermath of the battle and described it as a "sea of blood" because of all the fallen Red Coats. They were piled on top of each other, laying "prostrated" where they had been cut down in the battle.

All right that's the best I could do, hope it helps!

As he thought about the hieroglyphs in Thothmes' and Ramesses' names, Champollion realized their significance. It went far beyond the names themselves and gave him an insight into the entire system of hieroglyphic writing. For the names revealed that hieroglyphs were not simply representations of sounds. Nor did they have an exclusively symbolic meaning, as Thomas Young and other scholars had long believed. Instead, they were a combination of the two.
