Description

Osgood Clary and Simeon Small oppose the appointment of John D. Myrick who they say is unfit for service.

Myrick "has been ridiculous besides being lazy and saucy to the other officers, he has been seen repeatedly in bed with some of the men and was the laughing stock of the whole regiment. He would laze away most of his time in his tent while the rest of the officers were at work."
