GENERAL ORDERS,
HDQRS. 4TH DIV., 17TH ARMY CORPS, Numbers 22. Near Raleigh, N. C., April 24, 1865.

The general commanding highly appreciates the efforts of both officers and men in their proficiency in drill an military bearing. Their personal apperance, and the taste displayed in fitting up in so short a time the pretties camp in this whole army reflects great credit upon the whole command. In review to-day before Generals Grant and Sherman, the two greatest generals of the age, the division acquitted intself in its usual creditable manner. Great labor is requesite to exel in any profession, and particularly so in your present one of arms. Continue to diligently apply yourselves, occupying any idle day in drilling, have regular roll-calls, and attend to all the details of discipline, until your reputation in camp shall equal the one you have so nobly won on the battle-field.

By order of Bvt. Major General Giles A. Smith:
