HEADQUARTERS FIFTH ARMY CORPS,
November 28, 1864.General CRAWFORD:
As the One hundred and fourth New York Volunteers is entirely without officers, I think it best to have it broken up and the men transferred to some other in your division. I wish you would submit an application to that effect, naming the regiment to which the men should be assigned. I have recommended that Major Colt be retained at the prisoners' camp till his time of service expires. He will be of no use here.
Yours, truly,
G. K. WARREN,
Major-General.
