List of Soldiers Furnished for War of the Rebellion

In 1863 a draft was ordered; 34 men were drafted, but only one, Cottrill Clifford, went into the service; 22 paid their commutation money. Clifford served his time, was discharged, and accidentally killed on his way home. I do not find his name in our list of soldiers; probably he was put in to fill up some regiment separately from our other men.

There went out 98 from us, 28 of whom never returned. A few were brought back to be buried, but most of our dead sleep on Southern soil. In the vigor of young manhood they went, one and another, who were household treasures.

"The loved of all, yet none
O'er their low bed may weep."

Perhaps the last news of them was, "seen on the battlefield," or "taken prisoner," and then long months elapsed ere one word could be heard to stay the anguish of suspense. At last came the fearful, "Died at Andersonville."
