It Is Too Late, Now I Wish

If I Have Any Choice I Would Prefer Western Troops.

The Zeal, Bravery, And Good Behavior Of The Officers And Men On The Night Of June 30, And During July 1, Was Commendable In The Extreme.

I Am Willing To Serve My Country, But Do Not Wish To Sacrifice The Brave Men Under My Command.

If The Regulars Are To Be Put Together, I Believe They Would Prefer Me To The Other Cavalry Commanders.

It Is Too Late, Now I Wish I Could Live.
