MILITARY PARADE at COPPEROPOLIS -- Orders have been issued by Brigadier General DOBBIE for 3rd Brigade of the 3rd Division to assemble at Copperopolis, for muster and field duty, on the 21st of October. The following named gentlemen constitute Gen. DOBBIE's Staff:
-Willaim A. DAVIES, Columbia, Assistant Adjutant General, with rank of Major
-Joseph A. SMITH, Columbia, Aid-de-Camp, with rank of Captain
-Edwin A. SHERMAN, Aurora, Mono County, Engineer Officer
-George E. DREW, Stockton, Ordnance Officer
-John SEDGWICK, Sonora, Quartermaster
-G.R. CHOATE, Stockton, Commissary
-Wm. H. FORD, Sonora, Paymaster
-T.J. MATTESON, Murphys, Inspector
-F.B. McNEIL, Sonora, Judge Advocate
-Dr. JONES, Murphys, Surgeon
All with the rank of Major except the Captain. The Stockton Light Dragoons, Capt. O.M. BROWN and Union Guard, Capt. J.H. GILMORE, have received orders to be present.
Ed note: although not explicitly stated, believe this what became 3rd Regiment, CA Volunteers based on Major Willaim A. DAVIES showing up as a Colonel in the latter outfit. See post this forum for reference.
