Civil War Infantry

Twenty Third Infantry

Of Colonel Chapin, commanding the 2d brigade, I need not add to what I have said. His excellent management of the troops upon three fields and his personal bravery have attached him to his men as few commanders are attached. His staff, Captains Gallup and Sheldon, and Lieutenant Pearson, are worthy followers of their brave leader. "
This correspondent, in mentioning the names of the several regimental commanders in the brigade as behaving nobly, includes the name of Major Wheeler.
