History of the 32nd Arkansas Infantry Regiment

Following the Battle of Shiloh in April 1862, General P. G. T. Beauregard sent Major-General Thomas C. Hindman back to Arkansas with the authority to conscript troops and organize a military program. From Headquarters of the Western Department in Corinth, Mississippi, Beauregard’s Acting Chief of Staff George W. Brent, issued General Orders No. 59 and No. 60 which designated Major-General Hindman’s command as the Trans-Mississippi District, and comprised the states of Missouri and Arkansas and the portion of the State of Louisiana north of Red River, and the Indian Territory. General Hindman immediately, appointed Charles H. Matlock to establish a recruiting headquarters at Camp Cache, near Cache River.
