CONSOLIDATED MORNING REPORT of The Ninety First Regiment of 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.
