A Boy Trooper with Sheridan

More than He Bargained forThe War Fever and How it Affected the BoysA Disbanded CavalrymanGoing to School in UniformCousin Tom from Shiloh?Running Away to EnlistThe DraftIn the Griswold CavalryHabeas Corf used.

A writ of habeas corpus was procured from Judge Robertson, and as the proof was clear that Stanton was only fourteen years old, he was duly discharged from the service of the United States. But the end was not yet. A warrant was issued for the recruit, charging him with obtaining bounty and uniform under false pretenses, and a release from the military service proved only a transfer to the civil power. Stanton found that he had made a poor exchange of 'situations,' and last evening gave bail before Judge Robertson in the sum of five hundred dollars. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
