oneer officers. To make mention of the officers and men of this brigade distinguished for gallantry would be to make out almost a complete muster-roll, but can, without detriment to the other gallant men, call attention to Captain Sutphen, Ninetieth Ohio; Captain Latimer, One hundred and first Ohio; Lieutenant Ford, Thirty-first Indiana, as officers deserving more than thanks. To all the members of my staff I am under obligations for the prompt and energetic manner in which they have discharged their duties. Particularly am I indebted to Lieutenant Felton, Ninetieth Ohio, aide-de-camp, and Lieutenant Stevens, Eighty-first Indiana, assistant inspector-general. Always correct in their judgment, always on the front line when there was work to do, rendering active and valuable assistance, and untiring in their efforts. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, I. M. Kirby, Colonel, Commanding. Capt. E. D. Mason, Asst. Adjt. Gen., First Division, Fourth Army Corps.

t 31 (without battery), 1,979. Recapitulation of casualties during the campaign. Zzz This presents the bitter of such a brilliant campaign and leaves many aching hearts, not only with families and friends at home, but these fallen heroes will ever be remembered and lamented by their comrades in arms, as the jewels sacrificed upon the altar of their country. A change of provost-marshals inadvertently deranged the papers, so I am unable now to give an accurate list of the prisoners captured by my command during the campaign, but the probable number was about 500 to 600. From my situation, I have been unable to have the reports of regimental commanders before me, and will respectfully refer to thenl, to be forwarded herewith, for more minute particulars, and for a list of casualties in their respective commands. I am, captain, your most obedient servant, &c., W. Grose, Brigadier-General, Commanding. Capt. E. D. Mason, Assistant Adjutant-General, First Division.

I commend their meritorious services to the consideration of my superiors and to the gratitude of my countrymen.

e 8th to Atlanta. September 8, my command moved at the hour appointed, following the First Brigade, Colonel Kirby. Arriving on the ground in rear of Atlanta, formerly occupied by a portion of the Army of the Tennessee, at 1 o'clock, I took position as directed by General Kimball, which ground is at present occupied by my command. In the absence of General Grose I am unable to give a report prior to the date herein given. No comments are needed on the officers and men composing this brigade for the few days they were committed to my orders. Closing the campaign, I must say, with due respect to each and every one, that they performed their duties nobly, as men and soldiers. An official report from General Grose, in combination with all the movements, will be forwarded as soon as received at these headquarters. I have the honor to be, your obedient servant, John E.
