Company A, 148th P. V. I. The company went via Lewistown to Harrisburg, where the members were instructed in the duties of a soldier and equipped for service. Mr. Weaver's first battle was the memorable struggle at Chancellorsville, and he took part in all engagements of his regiment until after the fight at Deep Bottom, where he was wounded by an exploding shell. He lost three months in consequence, spending most of the time in hospital in Philadelphia, with thirty days furlough home. After rejoining his regiment at Falmouth, he served until the close of the war. His record was a most credible one, and at his discharge in July, 1865, he held the rank of sergeant.
