I WAS captured at Gettysburg on the fifth day of July, 1863. A
bullet had passed through my right knee during the fierce
engagement on Culp's Hill, July 3rd, and I fell into the hands of
the Federal Army. By the 6th of July Lee had withdrawn from
Pennsylvania, and, despite the serious nature of my wound, I was
removed to the general hospital, Frederick City, Md. Here for, at
least a month, I was under the charge of the regular army surgeons,
at whose hands I received excellent and skillful treatment. For
this I have ever been grateful. I recall, also, many kindnesses
shown me by a number of Catholic Sisters of Frederick, whose
special duty was the care of the sick and the wounded.
