A decorative soldier's discharge printed by "Civilian" Branch of Houston, Texas. Completed for Private William Williams "by reason of Certificate of disability." He had enlisted on May 15th with the 22nd (Hubbard's) Texas Infantry but was evidently deemed unfit for duty while in camp.
The regiment would become a part of Walker's Texas Division and serve primarily in Louisiana and Arkansas, including in operations against General Banks's Red River Campaign.

Fleischer's Auctions packages and ships most items in-house. We make an effort to ensure the lowest shipping rate possible while still meeting our package safety standards.
Large items, framed pieces, and any item that we are unable to package and ship in-house will be marked in the catalog as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service. Successful bidders winning items marked as being packaged and shipped by a third-party service are responsible for paying the third party directly. We are happy to offer complimentary drop-off service to local third-party packing/shipping companies in Columbus, Ohio. Once an item is dropped off and no longer in our possession, Fleischer's Auctions is not liable for the item's safe handling or shipment to the successful bidder.
