Civil War Union Army Officer. He graduated in 1862, and, subsequently joining the staff of St. Joseph’s Hospital, remained at that institution for six months. He then entered the army as assistant surgeon of the One Hundred and Fourteenth Regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, or Collis Zouaves. After an active service of one year and nine months, he was detached and assigned to duty at General Meade’s headquarters, Army of the Potomac, as attending surgeon. In August, 1864, he was promoted to the full rank of major, and assigned to duty as surgeon of the Second Veteran Artillery, Pennsylvania Volunteers. On the surrender of General Lee, Dr. Bartine was placed as surgeon in charge of the Fair-Ground United States General Hospital, at Petersburg, Va., and remained on duty until he was discharged, February 18, 1866. He then resumed the life of a civilian, locating in Merchantville, N.J., and engaged in the pursuit of his profession. His practice, which is of a general character, is not confined to the immediate locality of his residence, but extends to Camden and Philadelphia. He has devoted much attention to diseases of the throat, and his skill in that branch of practice, with his thorough knowledge of the profession as a whole, have placed him in the leading rank among the physicians of the county.
