Andrew Mitchell

Andrew Mitchell, of Company A, was the Second Quarter-Master Sergeant. For some misconduct, it is forgotten what, he was reduced to the ranks. But it could not have been a fault of high degree, because on May 11, 1865, he was made Captain of his Company. No one doubts his loyalty, bravery and merit. He resides at Norway, Iowa.
