To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At one of his North Square meetings he was accosted by two young women who sought unsuccessfully to inveigle him from the path of virtue. Desiring to have no inclinations in that direction (as he said **to be holy"), he pro- 46 ceeded to self-castration, for which he was treated in the Massachusetts General Hospital, from July 16 to August 18, 1858. MILITARY SERVICE He appears to have been an early patriot. The first notice of the impending need of sol- diers was a telegram received by the Gove...r- nor from Senator Wilson, April 15, 1861. Governor Andrew said, **The occasion de- mands action, and it shall not be delayed by speech." This seems to have been Corbett's idea. He left immediately for New York, enlisted there as a Private in Co. 1, 12th New York Militia, April 19, 1861, for three months. He enlisted again in the same regiment Co. K, June 2, 1862, and was mustered out October 8, 1862. The 12th New York Militia surrendered at Harpers Ferry, W. Va., in September 1862. It was mustered out at New York October 12, 1862, and declared exchanged January 11, 1863.
