When the call for volunteers came he was among the first from the University to offer his services and went South with the First Maine Regiment of Volunteers. He did duty for some time after he became sick, but would not go to the hospital. Early in August he succumbed to the fever. He was brought home from the Chickamauga hospital only two days before he died on August 22, with typhoid malarial fever. Had he returned to college it was his intention to enter the Law School. 10
