Savage and sent to Camp Trousdale north of Nashville where his company was organized into the 16th Regiment of the Tennessee Volunteers under Col. John H. Savage in June 1861. \ The latter part of April, 1862, Daniel's year of enlistment expired, but a Confederate conscript law was passed at Richmond which retained men of his age in military service for the duration of the war. \ Daniel was wounded at the battle of Chickamauga and left for dead. A story passed down through his descendants related that after the battle, nothern soldiers looking for their wounded and dead, found him alive sitting humped over at the foot of a tree with a bullet hole through his chest and back. When offered medical aid, he refused it while saying that h e wanted to get on with the business of killing damn yankees. \ He was taken prisoner, however, and given medical care which involved drawing a silk cloth through his chest to clean the wound. \ His discharge from federal prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, dated November 20, 1865, states that he enrolled in the U.S. Infantry, on October 20, 1864, for a year. It may be that he did this to escape hard prison life. One unofficial report stated that he worked in the nothern military mail service after being taken prisoner. \ His discharge papers describe him as being twenty years of age in 1865, five feet four inches tall, dark complexion, dark hair, and hazel eyes. \ He died on June 25, 1928, at age 85.
