1863. Not a report but rather a personal reply to Hunt so that general could
fill out his reports. Hunt Papers, Library of Congress Will be first time
published in forthcoming work by David Weick and myself. Dwight was a formable
character that hardly anyone knows about. He was Rorty's replacement and wrote
extensively to Hunt concerning both July 2nd and 3rd. Nothing he suggests is
new. Most of his work is nothing more then logistical with a few personal
insights such as sending for ammunition while under fire.
Best,
Dave
