91st PA--Sinex's attempt to have men returned to the regiment, 7 March 1864

Sinex's plea (2)--7 March 1864

See Sinex's plea (1) for a similar letter written on 8 September 1863.

On 7 March 1864, Joseph Sinex (then commanding the 91st PA) wrote a letter to the Brigade Assistant Adjutant General, requesting the return of 43 men, who were absent on . At that point, the regiment had only 134 enlisted men present for duty. Here's a list of the men, with the final result, when I know it. (I will be adding more data.)
