"Robert Byington Mitchell (April 4, 1823 – January 26, 1882) was a brigadier general in the Union
Army during the American Civil War and the Governor of the New Mexico Territory from 1866 to
1869. After the start of the Civil War, Mitchell was commissioned as the colonel of the 2nd Kansas
Volunteer Infantry. He was badly wounded at the Battle of Wilson's Creek on August 10, 1861. He
was shot from his horse while leading his regiment. After recovery, U. S. President Abraham
Lincoln appointed him as a brigadier general to rank from April 8, 1862, and he was given
command of a mixed brigade at Fort Riley. He commanded the 9th division in Charles C. Gilbert's
III Corps at Perryville, Kentucky. He was then sent to Nashville, Tennessee, where he remained for
several months. During the Chickamauga campaign, Mitchell served as George H. Thomas's
Chief of Cavalry for the Army of the Cumberland. Just before the Third Battle of Chattanooga, he
was ordered to Washington, D.C., for court-martial duty. According to some sources, this was due
to severe wounds which incapacitated him from field duty but this is contradicted in the Official
Records by Mitchell's own correspondence. Whether incapacitated or not, he would not see active
campaigning again, and for the remainder of the Civil War, he commanded the District of
Nebraska, then the District of North Kansas, and finally the District of Kansas." Scarce

Autographed CDV of Major General Gordon Granger of Michigan. "Granger's first
fight in the Civil War was the Union defeat at Wilson's Creek, Missouri, in August
1861, where he was in command of a volunteer regiment of cavalry. He was
promoted to brigadier general of volunteers on March 26, 1862, and commanded
the Cavalry Division in the Army of the Mississippi during the Battle of New Madrid
and the Siege of Corinth. He was promoted to major general of volunteers on
September 17, 1862, and took command of the Army of Kentucky. He conducted
cavalry operations in central Tennessee before his command was merged into the
Army of the Cumberland, becoming the Reserve Corps. He is most famous for his
actions commanding the Reserve Corps at the Battle of Chickamauga. There on
September 20, 1863, the second day of the battle, he reinforced, without
orders, Major General George H. Thomas's XIV Corps on Snodgrass Hill.
This action staved off the Confederate attackers until dark, permitting the
Federal forces to retreat in good order and helping earn the sobriquet
"Rock of Chickamauga" for Thomas.
Granger's success at Chickamauga earned him command of the newly
formed IV Corps in the Army of the Cumberland. Under his command, this force
distinguished itself at the third Battle of Chattanooga. Two of the IV Corps' divisions,
those commanded by Thomas J. Wood and Philip Sheridan, were among the force of
units that assaulted the reinforced center of the Confederate line on top of
Missionary Ridge. There, the Union forces broke through and forced the
Confederates, under General Braxton Bragg, to retreat. After Chattanooga, Granger
took part in lifting the siege at Knoxville, Tennessee. Despite these successes, his
outspokenness prevented him from gaining more prominent commands.
Nevertheless, he was sent to the Department of the Gulf, and continuing to lead
troops and gain recognition. He commanded the land forces that captured Forts
Gaines and Morgan in conjunction with the Union naval victory at the Battle of Mobile
Bay. Granger commanded the XIII Corps during the Battle of Fort Blakely, which led
to the fall of the city of Mobile, Alabama' Nicely signed on the front.
