 Private Lyman Wilson of Co. F attempted to carry McFarland back to the Seminary for treatment, as it was then being used as a hospital.As McFarland's arm was around Wilson's neck, a bullet came close enough to Wilson's head that it sheared a button off McFarland's cuff.McFarland was treated inside the building, and once Confederate troops advanced and took possession of the town, fell captive to the enemy.
