and the movements and garrison duty at Cor
inth and Memphis While the regiment was engaged in
bridgebuiding at Prospect Tennessee the subject OF
veteran renlisment began TO engage the attention or
the troops and Col Noyes exerted himself wlth such
effect in the work of inducing his men TO reenst' that
