Preston, Corporal William Wemms, and six privates - Carroll, Kilroy, Warren, Montgomery, Hartigan, and McCauley - marched to the sentry box with fixed bayonets. White joined the ranks. Preston was unable to march the eight soldiers back to the barracks because of the threatening crowd, armed with sticks, swords, rocks, ice, and snow.
