Indiana.--This State sent five regiments of volunteers to the Mexican War, and hence it was deemed advisable, for historic reasons, to commence numbering the volunteers of the last war at the sixth regiment.
Other missing numbers in the list of regiments are accounted for by the following synonymous designations:
The infantry regiments bore designations identical with their volunteer numbers.
The 56th, 61st, 62d, 92d, 94th, 95th, 96th, 98th, 122d, and 141st Regiments were not organized.
The regiments from the 102d to the 114th were composed of “minute men” who served about ten days during the
1888.
