The company was muster ed into the Confederate service at Macon. Georgia, as Company B Fifth Georgia Infantry, May 11 ’til with Mr. Duffey as fourth sergeant In the fall of 1861 he was made second lieutendent, at Corinth, Miss., was elected first lieutenant and was soon afterward promoted to the captaincy, June 1802. Capt. Dnffey’s first engagement was on Santa Rosa Island, off Pensacola. Fla., in the attempted surprise of flic federal garrison of Fort Pick ens. in the fall of 1881, at that time a famous exploit. Going afterwards into East Ten nessee, he was in the fighting a bout Cumberland Gap, and in Dec. 1802, he took part in the great bat tle of Murfreesboro. Here be was slightly wounded in the head, and some months afterwards he was again wounded, in the foot, at Tan ner’s Ferry. He fought at Chick amauga and in the Atlanta cam paign from Dalton to Marietta. From the latter point he was sent with his command to Charles ton, S. C , and assigned to the con federate line on .Tames Island. Subsequently, at Charleston, they were put in charge of prison< rs, which they conducted to Florence, Ala, Thence they were ordered to Savannah, Ga., and on the way participated in the fighting with the head of Sherman’s army on the Coosavvhatchie. After this Capt Duffey took part in the cam paign in ths Carolinas, in 1865, nn der Gen. Hardee, including the! battle of Bentonville, and at the close of the hostilities was paroled ■ at Washington, Ga., May 9, 1865 Thus honorably ending fonr years of gallant and devoted ser vice to the confederacy, he return ed to the duties of civil life, and in January, 1866, sought the wider field of opportunity in Texas. He made his home in 1891 at Galves ton, where he was manager for John Fennegan & Co., and contin uously served as such until strick en down about first of April. He leaves surviving three broth ers, B. F. Duffey, of Galveston, Lawrence Duffey, of McDonough, Ga., and Payton Duffey, of Louis iana, and one sister, Mrs. Cornelia Woodward, of Atlanta, Ga., who was here at his death.
