The Philadelphia Weekly Times of 17 March 1883 (vol. VII, no. 4) contained an article entitled, "A Tiger's Adventure" by Charles A. Pillsbury, a Confederate. I cannot identify Pillsbury's unit. He claims to have been wounded at Gettysburg on 2 July 1863 in front of "Cemetery Heights" and taken to a hospital in the rear until 4 July, when a messmate found a horse for him to ride out on the retreat. However, his horse broke down at Waterloo, PA and Yankee cavalry captured him in the early morning hours of 5 July, along with some 50 wagons. His information appears to match actual events. He said he was taken a short distance and paroled, and then sent with 20 other wounded to Waynesboro, PA. After five or six days of kind treatment by the local ladies, he was sent on to Harrisburg and thence to Fort Delaware, where he describes a daring escape made on 28 July 1864. What more is known about this soldier?
