In Response To: John Hinds bond ()

John Hinds, 1st Corporal, Company I, Gause's Regiment Trans-Mississippi Infantry,* enlisted June 20, 186_ at Camp Cache by Col. Matlock for 3 years, appointed 3rd Sergeant April 12, 1862, last recorded on August 31, 1863 as absent sick since June 7, no further records

The next surviving muster roll for Company I is that for the period Jan/Feb, 1864 in which his name does not appear.
It appears therefore, that he must have been dropped from the rolls on one of the two intervening bi-monthly muster rolls. This could have been because of discharge, death, capture, desertion, transfer, etc.

* This Regiment was designated at various times as Matlock's Battalion Arkansas Cavalry, 4th Regiment (Gause's) Trans-Mississippi Infantry, Gause's Regiment Arkansas Infantry, and 32nd Regiment Arkansas Infantry
