Ms. Adkins-Rochette,

Hopefully soon I'll be able to purchase your work when finances allow. I'll gladly accept any and all help you can offer-but this is not a project on the front burner (It is something I desire to publish later, but I also realize that just the roster and a brief history of the unit(s) would not be a big seller, so while I'm working on 2 other projects I'm keeping my eyes open for other material pertaining to IT to add-to make a sort of "Cabinet of Curiousities").

By chance do you have MS Word on your computer? If so, I'll send you a copy of my 70 page rough transcription of Wells' command.

One last question-do you have any info on Harris' 1st Chickasaw Battalion in 1861/2 in general, and specifically on LT/CPT Scanland and the company which became his in early 1862?

Again, thank you for your offer of assistance-it is greatly appreciated.
