After about a month, he contracted typhoid pneumonia. He was sent home to recover and then placed in the 2nd GA Reserves unit.. But later he was captured in Columbus, GA and held until the end of the war. His pension was not approved as he had not served the required 6 months active duty according to the pension law.
