General Notes: Husband - William H. Pringle

---

At the beginning of the Civil War he was a resident of Sacramento City, California. He there joined a volunteer cavalry company, which was sent around Cape Horn to the port of Boston, Massachusetts. At the latter place this company of California volunteers, as Company L, was attached to the Second Massachusetts Cavalry. They performed gallant service in the field. Unfortunately, however, young Pringle was taken prisoner by the enemy, and for long weary months endured all the privations and horrors of the Andersonville prison-pen. He never recovered from the inhuman treatment there experienced, but died, like thousands of others, soon after his release and before reaching home.
