sued a general order forbidding the APP
pointments of officers for the new regiments
from regiments already in the field, and as
its effects must be decidedly injurious, Gov.
Morton telegraphed to the Secretary to
know if the order really meant to prohibit
old officers from being appointed to the new
regiments. To this the Secretary replied
as follows:
WAR DEPARTMENT, !
WASHINGTON, d. O., August Is.
Governor Morton:
Your construction of the order is right.
Our armies being in the face of the enemy
officers in the field cannot be spared for any
purpose. The same reason applies TO alb
sent officers. If fit for any duty they
should be with their commands, and not
leave their men exposed to danger without
officers. If on detached duty it must be
performed. The principle On which the
order stands is that soldiers in the field re-
quire their officers presence.
