Includes printed orders issued 24 August 1849 by W. G. Freeman, Assistant Adjutant General, from the Headquarters of the Army at West Point. Orders discuss organization and command of artillery regiments. These orders are followed by a note initialled and handwritten by Henry Jackson Hunt. Hunt's initialed note reads, in part: "…And then the Asst Genl detailed as he saw fit - it was from trouble giving out of a detail made by the AG for a light battery that I had charged preferred against me by him…1876-7." Hunt discusses the 18 June 1870 issuance of orders similar to general orders no. 14.
