He was sent to the Wolf Street Hospital in Alexandria for 3 months and then he was honorably discharged in Feb 1863 for disability ( leg wounds) but what this memorial doesn’t mention is Stewart relisted 6 months later and is discharged from the Calvary at Leavenworth KS in 1865 ***Stewart and his wife Catherine are buried in the Chestnut Hill Cemetery in Connellsville PA.
