His boyhood was spent in his native town, where he attended thepublic and private schools. After living a short time in Stonington andPutnam, Conn., from the later place he was reported dead (having beencritically ill). An obituary notice of great length and fulsome praisewas published in the local papers, a copy of which is kept for the truefinale. He entered the army in August, 1862, as Sergeant of Co. G. 21stConn. Vol.; was afterwards promoted to 1st Lieutenant in the sameregiment, and served until the close of the war on the staff of GeneralCharles Devens, at the Headquarters of the 3d Division of the 24th A.C.,as Acting Engineer, officer, and Chief of Pioneers.
He was among the first to enter the Confederate Capitol on themorning of the third of April 1865, and the first officer, not aprisoner, to enter Libby Prison. He became a pensioner for disabilitiesreceived during the war; but not until over twenty years after its closewould he make application, and then only on account of increasinginfirmities.
Nearly his whole life has been spent in his present occupation,contracting painter, during which time he has exceuted many of thelargest jobs between New Haven, Conn., and Providence, RI, including thedecorating of the interior of many public buildings and privateresidences. He feels his greatest satisfaction in having lived toperpetuate to this generation, by a short period of service in the army,the patriotism of his grant-grandfather John Stanton, who was born inStonington, Conn, May 13, 1739, and at his death bore the markes ofseventeen bullet-wounds, received in the French and Indian War and thewar of the American Revolution.
