 Part I - Click for full-sized scanned image  Part II - Click for full-sized scanned image CAMP ARLINGTON, VA., October 28th, 1861.
Ten officers[1] have left or been removed from our regiment for various reasons. My Second Lieutenant has resigned upon invitation of the Colonel. I feel indignant about it but am unable to prevent it. He was certainly a very promising young officer. First Sergeant, David L. Quaw, will be Second Lieutenant of my company in place of Crane. He will be a genial, companionable tent mate, but I doubt if he develops the fine soldierly qualities possessed by Crane.
