w Mountain June 28, 1864, and was with the brigade during all the marches, skirmishing, and fighting from that time until the end of the campaign.

jt. D. R. Cook my thanks are especially due for their gallantry and very valuable assistance rendered me throughout the campaign. Major Strong was severely wounded in the battle of the 27th of May,. but declined to leave the field and remained on duty and witnessed the crowning success of the campaign.

Very respectfully, your obedient servant, Saml. F. Gray, Lieut. Col., Comdg. Forty-ninth Ohio Vet. Vols. Lieut. W. Mcgrath, A. A. A. G., First Brig., Third Div., 4th Army Corp
