Wounded<\/strong> Captured<\/strong> Private Whit. Ransom, on Sand Mountain, on Streight raid, May, 1, 1863. Private John A. Tayllor, near Chattanooga, Tenn., August, 1863. Privates Joseph Buss and Frank Williamson, at Mossy Creek, Tenn., Dec. 29, 1863. No truer patriot fought under the Stars and Bars than Capt. Miller. He was an old man–some sixty years of age. He had served as Colonel of the seventeenth Tennessee Infantry the first year of the war. Ordinarily this would have sufficed a man of his age. Not so with Capt. Miller. He felt it to be his duty to fight till the last, and he surrendered his company on the 11 day of May, 1865, when the war was over. No danger was so great of hardship so trying as to daunt this patriot of lion heart, and right faithfully did his company follow him. This company, it may be safely stated, performed services inferior to none in bravery and efficiency.<\/p>\n Submitted February 1999 by Marion Wortham Joyce.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The following information is taken from The Military Annals of Tennessee, Confederate, by John Berrien Lindsley, originally published in Nashville, 1878.The following is a partial list of the losses of this company:Killed.
