Poor young lad, died so far from home and family. But a lot of these young boy soldiers of the 19th Century had no family other than their regiment:(

Its a good point @BravoZulu , I remember a lad in the British army who actually did have a family but he was treated so badly by them he didnt want to be anywhere near them, he had a strong belief that his Regiment was his family too. Im glad he found a place he was happy.
