General Rosecrans, commanding the Department of Western Virginia |

| "General Rosecrans, commanding the Department of
Western Virginia, surrounded by his staff, at their headquarters,
Clarksburg, VA. We present to our readers a most interesting and
valuable sketch of General Rosecrans and his staff- a sketch
rendered all the more interesting by the brilliant triumph he gained
over the Mercury of the Confederates, Floyd. We enumerate the names
of the gallant men who so efficiently carried out the plans of their
chief: Joseph Derr, Jr., private secretary; Captain C. Kingsbury,
Jr., aid-de-camp; Captain N. P. Richmond, adjutant, and Captain
Charles Leib, quartermaster." — Frank Leslie, 1896 Source: Frank Leslie, Famous Leaders and Battle Scenes of the Civil War (New York: Mrs. Frank Leslie, 1896)156 |
