American Civil War
Fourteenth Regiment Infantry
I received the following reply:
Chattanooga, January 10th, 1864. To Colonel H. R. Mizner:
You will be permitted to accompany first detachment of your regiment to Michigan, leaving command at post as you proposed. It is not intended to dismount your regiment.
W. D. WHIPPLE, A. A. G.
I immediately communicated this telegram to my officers and men, who appeared perfectly satisfied; and during the month of February four-fifths of those eligible were mustered into service as veterans, some of the enlistment papers, however, bearing date January 4th for uniformity, and in ratification of expressions on that day.
