Reading edition
By Col. Smith’s report, in my possession, he certified that his brigade was furnished from June 21 to July 10, by U.S. Government, with six baggage wagons; from July 10 to July 26 with four wagons, and from the 26th to Aug. 14 with three pack horses. The wagons were each drawn by two horses, and on an average drew 500 pounds. Distance traveled, 1,200 miles.
