The majority of the men named on the rolls transmitted herewith werer on the Sultana. All such were originally checked thus but since the shipment some names have been checked on the same rolls, so that it isd impracticable at this time to identify the men who were on the Sultana, but a comparison of these rolls with the roll of men conducted to Camp Chase by Lieutenant Ed.

N. J. T. DANA,

Major-General.
