At the age of 17, she fled her home in Canada to escape an arranged marriage, dressed as a traveling Bible salesman. Edmonds continued her disguise when she enlisted as Franklin Thompson in Company F of the 2nd Michigan Infantry. Her company was called up to fight in the first major battle of the Civil War, Bull Run. In her autobiography, Emma graphically describes the exultation the soldiers felt going into battle and their ultimate despair. Her unit participated in many battles. But, soon, Emma served the army in another capacity, by becoming a spy for the Union Army, going behind enemy lines no less than seventeen times without detection. Her success was due to the fact that she was a master of disguise, Her exploits were often dangerous and always exciting. Between spying missions, Emma continued to serve as a soldier. She served as an aide general in battle and, for a time, was stationed in Harper's Ferry, in what is now West Virginia.
