This is an awesome story. I did fact check it and according to his records he was indeed wounded in the jaw and mouth during the battle.

According to the Sept & Oct company muster he was sent to a private home by the surgeon.

Hum well they are always in the last place you look?! That is just an amazing story that boggles the mind?!? At least mine.
 
Here is his story which was printed in the CS Vets magazine and he received plenty of donations and from one I read he even had 3 Union soldiers donate funds to his cause.
