10th Regiment Cavalry
'Officers and Soldiers of the 10th MICHIGAN Cavalry :—It is with many regrets that I announce to you my separation from the regiment. For many months I have been a sharer of your joys and sorrows, and to some extent of your dangers and hardships. I have gloried in your success, and rejoiced in the good name you have so nobly won. Higher authority has seen fit to designate mo for a position apart from the regiment. While I yield cheerful obedience to all lawful orders, it costs me many a regret to part with men with whom I have been connected by so many tender and interesting associations. I desire to tender to you all my most heartfelt thanks for your cheerful obedience, your prompt and earnest co-operation in all measures to premote the welfare of the regiment and service.
