HEADQUARTERS 54TH REGT.
O. V. U. S. A.,
CAMP DENNISON, January
11, 1862.
My name in the service and elsewhere is unfortunate. There are
four Colonels Smith in Ohio alone; one of them is Kirby Smith, a name by which
I am not unfrequently known, and by the by, I notice that there is one by that
name in the rebel army.
