Preprinted document on brown paper filled out in period ink. Item meas. approx. 8.50 x 4.50 inches.
Document is headed “SURGEON’S CERTIFICATE OF EXEMPTION” and is dated Greensboro May 2, 1864. It states that James M. Mooney of the 67th North Carolina Militia is unfit for further service due to incipient phthisis pulmonalis. Document is signed by three doctors.
The records show that James M. Mooney enlisted in Company A, 1st North Carolina State Troops on July 15, 1862. Not long after enlisting he became ill and was sent to a hospital at Richmond. Mooney was sick the entire time he was with the regiment and was discharged on January 31, 1864.
Mooney was later conscripted into the 67th Militia but it was the document offered here that released him.
With the original document are two Xerox copies of Mooney’s January 1864 discharge. [ad]
