Military

State of Indiana Warren County SS
 
Before me the undersigned authority personally appeared Washington M Crawford who being by me first duly sworn says
 
my age is 46 years.
 
In the matter of my claim for pension No 170744 my occupation has always been that of a farmer. For five year preceding my enlistment in Co H 2nd NY Cav I worked on a farm for my father in Washington township Warren County Ind except the last year prior to the breaking out of the war I moved to Jordan township and began farming for myself. I continued there until August 3rd 1861, when I enlisted in the army in the above named Co and regiment. I was in all the engagements the regiment was in from the time of its organization until the 22nd day of Sept 1863 when I was taken prisoner in an engagement between Gen Kilpatrick and Gen Stewart near Liberty Mills Va.
The circumstances under which my disability was incurred was hardships of prison life such as being confined with thirty five thousand men on about sixteen acres of ground with insufficient food and no shelter except a government blanket which makes a poor Shade and no shelter from the rain whatever. I passed the winter of 1863 and 1864 in Bell Isle and in March 64 I was taken to Andersonville Ga where I incurred the disability during the summer of 1864. I went from there to Charleston SC and there eighteen days and was then taken to Florence SC where on the 7th of Dec 64 I was paroled in the agreement between two Commissioners to exchange ten thousand sick.
I arrived home in June 1865 and remained on the old homestead with my mother and was treated by Dr Tebbs and Dr Greeley who are both deceased. In 1866 I lived in Jordan township, tried farming and received treatment from Dr Frankeberger who is also deceased. In 1867 I lived in Washington township followed farming and was again treated by Dr Greely. I remained in Washington township until 1871 when I moved to Pike township and followed farming there until 1873 when I again moved to Washington township where I have remained to the present and have been following farming.
I am a constant sufferer with the following troubles: rheumatism, neuralgic bronchitis, piles and the effects of Scurvy in my feet My treatment since the death of Drs Tebbs of Williamsport Ind, Dr Greely of West Lebanon Ind, and DrFrankeberger of Jordan has been by Dr Leech who now resides at Crawfordsville Ind, Dr T B Campbell of West Lebanon, Ind and Dr. Osborne of West Lebanon Ind
I have performed manual labor every year since the war except the first year immediately after the war. I have not been able at any time since the war to do a full day’s work from the fact that my feet are so affected that I cannot stand the walking. My mussles also pain me so that I am compelled to stop. I am not able to do more than one fourth as much of any kind of farm work as I could before the war. When I do any heavy work it brings on piles when I am exposed.I suffer with Bronchitus. All the work I do must be done under great difficulties and with great pain. I am frequently confined to the house and sometimes to my bed but I cannot give dates as to time of said confinement. All I can do with any degree of certainty is to oversee the work and do chores.
I have not suffered at any time with any acute disease since my discharge from the Army.

Subscribed and sworn to before me this 7th day of April 1884 and I certify that I have not interest in the claim this affidavit seeks to establish.

Residence

Soon after my return to Anapolis MD, I was furloughed home and remained there sixty days. Then I was sent to NY City and discharged never having seen the regiment to which I belonged and never even having any symptom of bronchitis before my imprisonment. I was never treated by my regimental surgeon.

Death

Obituary
The funeral of Mr. W. Marion Crawford took place last Tuesday, 27th last at the M.E. Church. Rev. J. M. Wright, a member of the post preached the funeral serman. The church was filled with those who wished to show their last tribute of respect to a fellow citizen, comrade and Christian. The ministers text was from Prov. 8:8 "And there is no discharge in that war." Father Collins took charge of the concluding part of the sermon at the church and acted as Chaplain for the post. The interment took place in the G. A. R. cemetery.

Washington M. Crawford was the third son of Nelson G. Crawford, of whom James H. Crawford is the eldest. He was born in Warren County, Ind. April 21st 1838, and was married March 4, 1860 to Mary Foster. On August 27th 1861, he entered the military service of his country by enlistment in Co H of the 2d New York Cavalry., better known as the "Harris Light Horse." September 22d, 1863, he was captured and made a prisoner of war and for nearly fifteen months he suffered the hardships and privations of Southern prison life in Andersonville, Belle Isle and other prisons of the south. He was paroled December 13th, 1864, returning home on the last day of the same month, a mere wreck of his former self, from the effects of which he never recovered. He made a profession of faith in Christ while in Andersonville prison at prayer meetings conducted by Boston Borbett and John McElroy, and united with the M.E. church in January, 1886, since which time he has lived a consistent Christian life. He died last Friday, 23d last of heart failure resulting from disabilities contracted while a prisoner of war in Andersonville.
He leaves, to mourn his loss, the wife, two sons and two daughters, one daughter having preceded him to the better land three years ago. Mr. Crawford as a man of sterling qualities. He was of a quiet nature, rater reticent, but of good judgment of unquestioned honesty and daily uprightness. His daily consistency was manifest to all who knew him.
Thus the "boys" are going, one by slow, wasting disease; another by the quickest means known in disease -- failure of the heart to perform its work; and now truly the minister said in the funeral discourse: "There is no discharge in that war."
The pall-bearers, all, had at one time, or another been prisoners of war in Andersonville, and Comrade Barlow was paroled from that prison upon the same day that Mr. Crawford was. He was for several years an honored member of Lewis Post, No. 294, G.A.R., by which his funeral services were conducted. "Peace to his ashes."
