HON. GEO. T. COBB, M. C.

excellent clerk, and is eminently qualified mentally and morally for a
commission, especially as an adjutant of a Reg't.

I am very respectfully.

LIEUT. E. B. PARSONS,
_A. A. A. G. Cav'y Corps._

LIEUT.: I have the honor to request the suspension of the order from the
Major Gen'l Commanding directing me to return Private H. C. Meyer, 2nd
New York Cav'y, to his Regiment. Private Meyer has been serving for a
year as clerk at the Hdqrs. of the 2nd Division, the former 3d Division,
and _Bayard's Brigade_. He is well instructed in his duties, and is
familiar with all the records of the Adjutant-General's office of this
Division. Capt. H. C. Weir, A. A. G., of this Division, is now absent
sick, and at this time the services of Private Meyer are invaluable. I
respectfully request, therefore, that I may for the present be permitted
to retain Private Meyer. Private W. H. Bubier, 2nd N. Y. Cavalry, was
taken prisoner at the battle of Brandy Station, and has not returned to
these Hdqrs.

I am, very respectfully,
Your ob't serv't,
D. MCM. GREGG,
