old members were ordered into line and marched away. and no officer gave a parting word to us. we number 118. most of which have been in all the regt. has seen. except the 1st Bull Run. we were left without arms. guard. officers. or rations. and have had none appointed since. of our own numbers we have appointed one to take charge. and we have set a guard. Gen. Barneo. has sent word to us that he shall transfer 70. into the 3rd Mass Battery. and if we don't mind what he says. and be good he will have us all courtmartialed and sent to the 20th Regt. The men have been very quiet so far but we consider all this as humbug and are anxious to have our case represented in the right light. and to the proper authorities. if you will, use what means appear to you the most efficient you will have our thanks and I am author- ised to say that any expense you may incur will be paid by the members of Co. B. F. L. Grindle.
