He entered the 136th regiment N.Y. volunteers in Sept. 1862, and died the following December of a diease of the lungs. Mrs. Borr had a brother in the 1st N.Y. dragoons. He enlisted Aug. 14th, 1862, and participated in all of the engagements in which his regiment took part until his death, which was caused by a wound received at the battle of Spottsylvania Court-house, July 2nd, 1864.
