General
On the 7th inst. thirty
six enlisted men belonging to this Regiment arrived here
from Annapolis Md. who were captured by the enemy at
Gettysburg July 1
st 1863 sent to Richmond, paroled, and
forwarded via City Point to Annapolis and at the latter
city were said to be exchanged – they seem to be in doubt
as to their exchange – I would respectfully ask if said
prisoners have been duly exchanged, as we have no official
notice of the fact.
