Civil War
Third Regiment Infantry
Before Captain Alexander gave me this last direction I learned that Colonel Miles had altered the position of some regiments which I had placed before, especially the 3d Michigan Regiment, which I had ordered to form close column by division, to remain as a reserve, and await further orders from me. The officer in command of the regiment at that time, Lieutenant Colonel Stevens (Colonel McConnell being unwell, but on the ground), immediately executed that order, and put his regiment in close column. I went to some other part of the field, and on returning found this regiment deployed in line of battle, and in another position.
