George --

One of the records on file does read "Ensign and A.C.S." but that must be a copyist error. The correct title should be '1st Lieutenant and Ensign, P.A.C.S.' The position of regimental commissary (A.C.S.) had been abolished by General Order No. 70 over a year before Stephens received his appointment. Also, the pay rank of a regimental commissary was that of a captain, not 1st Lieutenant.
