At Readville,
Mass., on the eleventh day of July 1864, I entered the service,
as private, in Company E 6th Regiment and at the close, my rank
was the same.
As my term
of enlistment had expired, I was discharged at Readville on October
27th, 1864 and I never again enlisted into service.
I was never
wounded but was confined for eight days during the last of the month
of July, in a hospital at Arlington Heights
Luke Smith,
George D. Smith, E. F. Wood, Robert Wayne, James Wayne, William
Chaplin and Waldo Chaplin were some of my most intimate comrades
while in service
I consider
the most important event in my army life to be when, we were Guarding
prisoners at Fort Delaware. |
