States "A grateful country has recognized your arduous service, and rejoiced over your glorious victory on the field of Chickamauga. When your countrymen shall more fully learn the adverse circumstances under which you attacked the enemy- though they cannot be more thankful- they may admire more the gallantry and patriotic devotion which secured your success... To zeal you have added gallantry; to gallantry, energy; to energy, fortitude. Crown these with harmony, due subordination and cheerful support of lawful authority, that the measure of your duty may be full..."
