Michigan Regiments
Twenty-Sixth Regiment Infantry
I regret I could not be present to express in person the affection I feel for the old regiment and the pride I took in having it under my command. I say this with a warmth and sincerity which I could express in the same degree towards but few of the regiments which I had in my command. "
Hancock writes:
"I have great respect and esteem for the officers and men of a regiment so distinguished in the field as the 26th Michigan Infantry, and being bound to them in ties of friendship derived through a common service. "
