From Page 1, Newberry Observer 4/20/1899:
D. I. Fulmer of Township No. 9 was granted a Confederate veteran's pension for 1899 by the County Pension Board.
NOTE: Photo was taken prior to his service to the Confederacy, since he has both hands in the photo but his right arm was wounded by gunshot in the Battle of Sharpsburg, MD, on September 17, 1862, and was amputated. A friend of his in Chapin, SC, lost his left hand in the war, so when one bought a pair of work gloves, he sent the one he didn't need to the other to use.
