He attended school until he was eighteen years of age, and a year later enlisted under Captain Wood, of Greenville, Company G, One Hundred and Forty-fifth Pennsylvania Volunteers, and was in the battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville and Cold Harbor. He was taken prisoner at Chancellorsville and sent to Libby prison, Richmond, Virginia, and after his exchange returned to his regiment and was in all battles that the regiment was in until the surrender of Lee.
