Wounded at second Bull Run, Aug. 30, 1862; in Oct. 1862 was discharged and returned to Templeton. Ball entered right groin and glancing outside the hip bone splintered it and lodged in the lower part of the spine. It was not extracted for a year and, by its pressure upon the nerves, caused severe pain. It was finally discharged through an abscess, and as the news spread through the village, there was great rejoicing and the church bells were rung. He lost 140 lbs. After recovery he was made Lieutenant 55th colored regiment until the close of the war.
