Compare Two Conflicting Eyewitness Accounts Of One Event

You have two eyewitness accounts of the same historical event, {ACCOUNT_ONE} and {ACCOUNT_TWO}, and they disagree on some of the details. Compare them: state plainly where they agree, state where they contradict each other, suggest one plausible reason for each contradiction, such as memory, bias, distance from the event, or self interest, and note what this disagreement teaches about reading eyewitness sources generally. Keep the answer to four short paragraphs, plain language, suitable for a beginner history student.
