Answer

Brief Explanations:

To support the statement, we look for text showing Farquhar's frustration at not enlisting. The sentence "Circumstances of an imperious nature had prevented him from taking service with that army... and he chafed under the inglorious restraint, longing for the release of his energies, the opportunity for distinction" shows he was prevented from joining and was frustrated (chafed) by this restraint, wanting to contribute. Also, "No service was too humble... no adventure too perilous... if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier" shows his eagerness to serve despite being a civilian, further implying frustration at not being able to enlist.

Answer: The relevant evidence is: "Circumstances of an imperious nature had prevented him from taking service with that army which had fought the disastrous campaigns ending with the fall of Corinth, and he chafed under the inglorious restraint, longing for the release of his energies, the opportunity for distinction." and "No service was too humble for him to perform in the aid of the South, no adventure too perilous for him to undertake if consistent with the character of a civilian who was at heart a soldier."
