Remarkable Civil War Tale Ends With Capture Near Marshall
A wandering man claims long military service and miraculous escapes after being captured near Vicksburg in 1863. He describes bullets and a silver slug lodged in his body and asserts enlistment at age 15 with re-enlistments later in 743 53 and 758. He says his parents live in Detroit and that he was discharged after G A R documents. He was captured and later escaped last June southwest of flexus, and he is known as Maynard.
