Nathan Bennett was promoted to Full 4th Sergeant in 1862.⁸ By early June of 1862, the 38th Regiment of Georgia was transferred to Lawton's Brigade which would become part of General Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson's Division. He was admitted to Lovington Hospital in Winchester, Virginia for Parotitis on August 8, 1862 and returned to active duty on August 24, 1862. A few days before 17 Sep 1862, Sgt. Nathan Bennett Bagwell of the 38th Regiment Georgia Infantry was marching into the North, into Maryland.

He was in a unit with no food [they ate green corn and apples] and no shoes. Detouring, under Stonewall Jackson's command, they marched all night to capture food and shoes at Harpers' Ferry, then with food and in new shoes marched all night a second night to make it to Antietam [as the Yankees called it, after the nearest creek], or Sharpsburg [as the Confederates called it, after the nearest town].

After marching all night under Stonewall ["the foot cavalry", they called themselves] the second night in a row, they arrived at dawn [17 Sep 1862] at the battle site of the bloodiest single-day battle of all times for America [23,000 died, missing or wounded]. Grampaw Bennett was in the bloodiest part of the bloodiest battle, "The Cornfield" and Grampaw Bennett was maybe in the bloodiest unit of the bloodiest part of the bloodiest battle; Grampaw Bennett's unit suffered 81% casualties that day.

They left him on the field with a bullet in his leg. His life was saved by a Union [Yankee] doctor on September 20th, 1862 who amputated his leg about 3 or 4 inches below his knee on the battle field. He was subsequently treated at No. 5 U.S. Army Hospital in Frederick, Maryland before being paroled and furloughed home as disabled. On January 24, 1865 he was admitted to Confederate General Hospital No. 9 in Richmond, where he applied for an artificial limb, which was paid for by the Association for the Relief of Maimed Soldiers.

He married Sarah Elizabeth Cogburn, daughter of James Floyd Cogburn and Elizabeth Eveline Fields, on 30 October 1864.⁹ Nathan Bennett Bagwell lived in June 1880 in Alpharetta, Milton County, Georgia.¹ He married Sarah F. Crowe.¹⁰ Nathan Bennett Bagwell died on 8 November 1908 in Alpharetta, Forsyth County, Georgia, at age 66.^5,7 He was buried at Union Hill, Alpharetta, Forsyth County, Georgia.^7,5

By early June of 1862, the 38th Regiment of Georgia was transferred to Lawton's Brigade which would become part of General Thomas Jonathan, "Stonewall" Jackson's Division. He was wounded at Second Manassas, Virginia on 28 August 1862. He died on 11 August 1864 in Newtown, Greene County, Virginia, From a letter written by Lt. Simpson Hagood, dated 8/13/1864:

“I am very much pained to have to state that in one of these (skirmishes) at Newtown, Va John Y. Bagwell was killed. John was a kind, generous, truthful & brave young man. In fact he was too brave to protect or take proper care of himself before the Enemy. he was a member of the Sharpshooting Battalion of our Brigade and it was his privilege as well as his duty to seise on every opportunity of sheltering himself while under fire, yet he wouldn't do so, but at all times rushed forward far in advance of the line. he only lived a few moments after the fatal Ball pierced his Breast. he only spoke one or two words but they could not be caught by his friends. we had him as nicely buried as the circumstances would permit.”

Courtesy of Mr. John Davis and Ms. Katherine Cash Emerson, descendants of Lt. Hagood.⁴ He married Lottie Morriss on 13 October 1865 at Wake County, North Carolina.

They locked him in a room to protect them from him.

Side Note: Hydrophobia ("fear of water") is the historic name for rabies.It refers to a set of symptoms in the later stages of an infection in which the person has difficulty swallowing, shows panic when presented with liquids to drink, and cannot quench their thirst. Any mammal infected with the virus may demonstrate hydrophobia.
Saliva production is greatly increased, and attempts to drink, or even the intention or suggestion of drinking, may cause excruciatingly painful spasms of the muscles in the throat andlarynx. This can be attributed to the fact that the virus multiplies and assimilates in the salivary glandsof the infected person or animal for the purpose of further transmission through biting. The ability to transmit the virus would decrease significantly if the infected individual could swallow saliva and water.
Hydrophobia is commonly associated with furious rabies, which affects 80% of rabies-infected people. The remaining 20% may experience a paralytic form of rabies that is marked by muscle weakness, loss of sensation, and paralysis; this form of rabies does not usually cause fear of water. He was buried on 6 April 1923 at Union Hill Cemetery, Alpharetta, Milton County, Georgia.^5,6
