REMARKS ON THE ROLLS.

The Thirty Eighth Regiment received but few recruits after leaving the State; and consequently it soon became reduced in numbers below the standard required by the War Department for a full complement of officers; so that there were no promotions, except to warrant offices, after the second year. Previously to being mustered out, complimentary commissions were issued, corresponding to the vacancies.

In the foregoing rolls of the various companies, whenever the date is not mentioned in connection with a sergeant or corporal, it is to be understood that he held the original appointment.

The name of the town to which each man is credited, except in two or three instances, is the one for which he enlisted, and is not always his place of residence.

Should any reader discover any error in the foregoing rolls, he will confer a favor upon the author by informing him of it.
