Annotation

[1] AES, owned by Solomon Foster, East Orange, New Jersey. Colonel John E. Bendix of the Tenth New York Infantry was mustered out of service May 7, 1863, the term of his regiment's enlistment being expired. The vouchers referred to are no longer with Lincoln's endorsement, but they probably were concerned with Colonel Bendix's desire to retain his commission after his regiment was mustered out. General Orders No. 44, Army of the Potomac, April 20, 1863, provided that all officers were to be mustered out with their regiments, but if the regiment re-enlisted officers were to be retained.
