HON. E. M. STANTON,
Secretary of War.
The following official report, made Dec. 17, 1864, is a
suitable sketch of the doings of the regiment for a year, and
as it never found its way into the war records is placed here
for a permanent record:
HEADQUARTERS SIXTH MICHIGAN CAVALRY,
FIRST BRIGADE, FIRST DIVISION, CAVALRY CORPS,
ARMY OF THE SHENANDOAH,
WINCHESTER, VA., Dec. 17, 1864.
BRIG.-GEN. JOHN ROBERTSON,
Adjutant General of Michigan,
GENERAL: I have the honor to submit the following brief
resume of operations of this command for the year embraced
between the dates November 1st, 1863, and November 1st, 1864.
. . . . From the 25th August to the 18th September [1864], the regiment
was engaged in the fights at Leetown and Smithfield, made three
reconnoissances, encountered the enemy each time, and being
under fire, acted once as escort for General Sheridan, and had
one chase after Mosby's guerrillas, wounding an officer of his
command, who was captured, and was with General Sheridan during
all the marchings and counter marchings which characterized the
earlier part of the Shenandoah Campaign. . . . .
