With the idea of becoming a mis- sionary uppermost in his mind he attended, and received his educa- ton at, Union University, Mur- frecsboro. Tenn, graduating in class of 1856. Iii July of the same year he was married to Miss Eliza beth Cooper, of Bedford county, Tcnr., and in the following Sep tember went to west Central Africa as Baptist missionary.

Subsequent ly he volunteered in the Forty first Alabama regiment and was elected first lieutenant of company ''C," afterwards being chosen as it's captain. Not being pleased with military responsibilities he declined the appointment of lieu tenant-colonel of the regiment. At the battle of Beans Station on Dec. l3, 1863, he lost his left arm above the elbow, and resigned his commission.
 Mir. Cason has the vanity to claim he saved the battle at Stone River (Murfreesboro) and relates that on Monday evening, prior, about o'clock, the federal skir- mishers presented themselves in front of General Bragg's army, whose skirmishers were immcdi- ately sent out, causing the former to retreat to the east side of the river. When they fell back from the river Capt. Cason, resting in a thicket, near the place where Cobb's battery and Breckenridge's $ infantry were subsequently, located, called for the field officer of the day and told him the federals would occupy that h,ll at daylight, and if so, Murfreesboro being but two miles away, would be in full range of the enemy's artillery, Higher authority was consulted and it was decided to hold the position, That position was the key to the battle, and although the newspapers gave the honor to Major Cobb, If due to Cobb at all it was due first to Capt. Cason.
