Fleming was admitted to the Regimental Hospital on 25 November, 1863, with Chronic Rheumatism according to the Surgeon General’s report and was discharged on 15 Feb., 1864, at Catlettsburg in Boyd Co., KY, due to disability. His pension papers describe him as 6’ tall, fair complexion, light or gray hair, and blue eyes.
