Groton Fort by a bayonet in his side and a blow to his head. He went to
Richmond,MA., to the home of his uncle, Deacon James Gates. He received
treatment forhis wound, and it was healing nicely when he suddenly
became delirious and died in a few days from the blow to his head. He was
not married. (refs 1, 220
