Immediately upon the arrival of Sherman's army at Washington City,
General Grant issued orders for the review of the Grand Army of the
Potomac to take place on the 23rd, and that known as Sherman's army to

attention of officials was turned to mustering out.

On the morning of the review of Sherman's army, our division led out of
its camp at an early hour, and by a slow and tiresome march it arrived
at Washington and passed before the admiring c
