Fourth Cavalry III
Lieutenants Silas J. Stauber and Henry S. Boutelle, who were commanding fifty men each in detachments, the latter of whom was severely wounded whilst gallantly leading his men; Lieutenant A. B. Purinton, who had charge of dismounted men, making the circuit of the enemy's camp; Lieutenants Dickinson and Davis, for general duties as aids, and Bennett, commanding rear guard. All the above officers are entitled to the highest praise, and in my judgment deserve promotion. I would also mention the names of Corporals Munger, of Company C, Crittenden, of Company E, together with privates James Bullard, Company C, Adrian Bee and Daniel Edwards, Company L, who were present at the halting of Davis, besides several others whose names I did not obtain before leaving the regiment.
