Re: Sauta Cave, Jackson County, Alabama

Hello Art, your information is exactly correct. District 9 would have also included Trinity Cave. And I see where my soldier also spent time as a laborer and was paid monies for his service while still serving time in Captain James H. Young's Nitre Guard. I thought it a bit odd that a Confederate soldier was also paid as a laborer and at first thought perhaps he rendered his slaves for the labor but that turned out not to be the case. I'd rather be paid a couple of dollars per day instead of the 11 per month as a soldier. (
