Beschreibung:

4pp, 5.75 x 9 in. The bill describes cavalry procedures, such as identification and issuing horses to cavalry members, how animals will be "graded" "according to quality," and procedures for receiving payment for a lost horse, how to get a mount if one is lost, what happens when a cavalryman does not take care of his mount, what happens to officers who allow the men under their command to neglect their mounts, and a bureau of cavalry will be created within the War Department to deal with all matters related to cavalry service. Condition: Toning along edges. Overall paper quality is not good, which allowed the ink to bleed a bit and blur letters, but this is common in Confederate imprints.
