Stamford Soldiers' Memorial 1869
  WM. T. STEVENS, Co. B. 17th Conn., was injured while felling trees for the
encampment. He was sent to the hospital in Washington where he had a typhoid
fever. He was afterwards sent to Fort Schuyler, where he obtained a pass to New
York City for twenty-four hours to meet his wife. On his return he missed the
boat and was therefore tardy in reporting. He was sent to the guard house where
he took a cold, from which he never recovered. He died at Fort Schuyler, Feb. 1,
1863, leaving a wife to mourn over one of the most inconsolable hardships of a
soldier's fate.
