CONSOLIDATED MORNING REPORT of The Ninety First Regiment of Penna. Vol. Infantry commanded by Colonel Edgar 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."
