That and the freezing of his right foot to the bone during the march to Huttonsville, Virginia in the winter of 1861, wound up permanently disabling him later on. Eventually, he was captured near Loudon, Tennessee and was given a choice of either going to prison or taking the oath of allegiance to the U.S. government. Being in bad health, he chose to take the oath. His pension was denied.The Notorious Meddlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15780971547826238129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1512646768390859513.post-44111390119518308332016-02-22T19:03:30.692-06:002016-02-22T19:03:30.692-06:00Hello!
