Shadrack Vaught requests Sick Furlough (Civil War)

Shadrack Vaught is approved for additional sick furlough after he is severely injured in the Battle of Sharpsburg (Maryland).

According to Billy Vaught (William Joseph Vaught, Jr):

He was severely wounded in his right arm during the war and never could use it completely afterwards.  He would hold his shirt sleeve with his left hand and could move his right hand to write.  He taught school and later became a judge in Horry County.
