The true amounts captured, used, and destroyed I estimate as at least four times as great, except in the item of cattle, which is probably nearly correct, and that of horses and mules, which should be doubled. The differences arise from the fact that in a campaign such as ours the great majority of articles captured were turned over directly by the foragers to the commands without passing through the routine of the departments to which they pertained.

I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant,

JOHN W. GEARY,

Brevet Major-General, Commanding.
