"I had one son Abner Sawyer in the rebel army. He is now living and resides in this county. He was conscripted and forced into the Army. I done all that I could do to keep him from going into the rebel army. He was married and was living to himself. I advised him never to go into the rebel army, and he did not go till he was forced to go and he only stayed there 3 months and run away and come home and lay out in the woods till the war closed. "
