Important Information

Tuesday, May 30, 1865

Today the 13th Army Corps was ordered to embark on transports for Texas.  Some of the division went aboard, but there arose a dispute among some of the commanders.  Some of the regiments who were close to being mustered out believed the orders did not apply to them.

General Canby was contacted and he telegraphed back from New Orleans to not move until he arrived.  He came in a day or two and resolved the disputes.
