J. W. Bolen, 438 West Beardsley Avenue, Elkhart, Ind., enlisted at the age of thirteen in Captain Casey's company at Liberty, Va., in the fall of 1861. He has forgotten his company and number of regiment, but remembers they were mustered into service in December at Staunton, Va. After the he was sick in a hospital for two months. He was with Stonewall Jackson's corps. He would like to hear from some of his comrades and also from Captain Casey's son, who, he thinks, is located in Chicago with some railroad.
