"For further information on this soldier of the 141st, or historical facts of the 141st, please contact Kurt Lafy at [email protected]" Rufus became ill during the winter of 1862-1863, and that was the reason for his discharge. Rufus was discharged 3/15/1863 on a Surgeon's Discharge. Knowing that the only battle fought by the 141st prior to that date was Fredricksburg, I'm assuming that's where he was taken ill.
