T. B. Gilbert, of Benton, Ark., is anxious to secure his father's record as a Confederate soldier, so he may become a member of the Sons of Veterans. William Henry Gilbert was about sixteen years of age when he became a member of the 21st Georgia Regiment and surrendered at Appomattox. He served under Captain Bakewell and was for a while in Early's command.
