Question

Robert Bunting did not want to join the war effort initially. What event changed his mind?

Answer 1

Answer:

Here is the suggested answer:  

"Before the war began, Robert’s wife, Chrissinda, took their baby daughter and went to visit her father in Ohio. Robert chose to stay behind. However, when the first battle of the Civil War began, Robert decided to fetch his wife and daughter. When he arrived in Kentucky, he was told that the journey to Ohio was unsafe for Southern sympathizers. Due to this, he was forced to stay in Kentucky for a time. During his stay, he was able to get reacquainted with some Texans that were members of his church. In the course of getting to know them, he felt it was his duty to go with them and serve as their unit’s chaplain. "
