Any per? son, however, who was forced into the rebel army, but avoided, ns fnr as possible, doing hostilo acts, and . csenped from thnt army ns soon ns possible, cannot be snid to have en- j gnged in tho rebellion. /Ul who exercised the functions of any offico under the Confederate Go? vernment, or the Government of und? one of the Confederate Stntes, which functions were of n nature to nid in prosecuting the war or maintaining the hostile character of thoso Govern? ments, and nil who voted for the ordinance of secession, engaged in thc rebellion or gave aid and comfort to the enemy.
