Chapter 19: Saline County Soldiers in the Civil War
The following record of those who took part in the Civil war is copied from a former history of this county, as being the only available record. Of course, it lacks a great deal of being complete or accurate, but it is probably the best record that could be made up fifteen years after the surrender of the Confederate army. The author of this history has personal knowledge of its incompleteness and want of accuracy, but at this distant day is unable to make any satisfactory corrections, the original rolls and records not being within his reach, if indeed any such original rolls now exist at all.
