James A. Boone, of Charleston, Mo., is trying to verify the record of William Brooks, who is in need of a pension. He enlisted in the spring of 1861 at Ellijay, Ga., in Company D, 11th Georgia Infantry, under Captain Welch and Col. G. T. Anderson, and was in Anderson's Brigade, Hood's Division. He was in Longstreet's Corps at Gettysburg, where he was wounded, and afterwards went back to his company and was with Longstreet in East Tennessee.
