CONSOLIDATED MORNING REPORT of The Ninety First Regiment of Infantry Pennsylvania Volunteers commanded by Colonel E. M. Gregory

NOTE.--Regimental and Battalion Staff Officers, when belonging to companies, will be reported in such companies as "on detached service," and be accounted for in "Field and Staff." They will, however, be dropped from aggregate of "Present and Absent" in Field and Staff, and be accounted for in the aggregate of their respective companies.

Remarks (Alterations since last Report to be accounted for by name.)

[co.A] Lieut [Francis] Gregory promoted to Capt 2nd Lt [John] Brass pro to 1st Lt

[co.D] Sergt [William] Carpenter promoted to 1st Lt Co K [Carpenter received his commission on the 26th, but was not mustered in until June, and therefore should have been reported as an enlisted man. This mistake was corrected on the 30th.]

[co.G] Chas. T. Loper returned from absent sick

[co.I] Sergt. [John] Donnell promoted to 2nd Lieut [According to my records, Donnell was in fact promoted on the 27th, but the report of the 30th counts him as an enlisted man, as it does Carpenter.]

[co.K] Sergt J F Casner returned from absent sick
[Theodore Snyder also received his commission on the 26th, and the 27th's report counts him as a commissioned officer, but the 30th's report again corrects that mistake.]

Adjutant.
