Look inside the book:

'Why,—the whole thing,'—and Rob made a little pause to think, though it did not seem half so funny now as out on the street with a crowd of boys, who had been singing at the top of their lungs, 'John Brown's Body,' and 'My Johnny has gone for a Soldier,'—'the surprise, Uncle Robert, when some of the fellows who have been skulking back and afraid to go find themselves compelled.'
...It is one thing to go out as a mounted officer, in glittering uniform, with a servant to wait upon you, and if you fall in battle to have whole cities weep your loss, and quite another to tramp as41 a common soldier, often weary and footsore, to be subject to the caprice of those in authority, to work night and day sometimes, to stand in the front rank and be swept down by a terrific charge, be trampled under foot and thrown into a nameless grave, perhaps forever lost to your kindred.
...'It is not because I am so proud of Cedarwood, or the handsome things in it,' she explained to Uncle Robert, 'though I do think them all very lovely; but it will be such a pleasure to her,—just as my going to Miss Jessie's when we were so poor.'
