In this situation he was doing well, and was
much respected by his employer. He went to
his parents and said, "my Country calls, and
must CO." All they could say to persuade him to
remain at home was in vain. He babe adleu to
home and kind friends, to take upon him tie
hardship's of a soldiers life. While he was in
