A curious and freak accident crippled him in the spring of 1863 near Suffolk. The regiment was part of the forces laying seige to that place and apparently James Webb took refuge behind a chimney which was struck by a connon ball. The chimney was toppled on him, and he was taken to the hospital with cuts about the head, and his chest was crushed. He survived and was discharged from active duty. In 1882 he was examined when he applied for his pension and Dr. Wolse on examining him, reported he was disabled and at times paralysed from the old injury. He died before the turn of the century."
