In his later yfeaj*s he was fond ot entertaining his grand children with tales of pranks "and mischief tEaTTie~got Into at this school. ! When he got too old for "petticoat government" he was sent to Loulsburg ?fcbere he boarded in the home of Mi*. * M. S. DaviB and went to his school for several years; then he went to school in Hillsboro for one year and was there when the wcr broke out. Not waiting to be drafted, nor even Waiting tor his parents consent?for he had not reached his majority?he left Uie school with a lumber of his mates and enlisted in Cotnpany E, 47th Regiment, Pettigrew*s Brigade, and Heath's Division of the Army of North era Virginia. He went .through the whole four years pf tjie war, taking part in all the battles iiw ^rhlch his company was en gaged. wille he left many of his comrades dead on the battlefields and helped others off who were sorely -wounded? he himself seemed prtfcected .hy a special providence tor he did not receive the slightest wound during the .whole four years. In 1867 he married Miss Temple Hil Jiard Gee, ot this county.. Her people .shortly afterwards moved to Mississ ippi an? Mr. Hill and his wife went to itfle old (Jew home place to live.
