"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 by Anthony/Brady.
