Brown's Battery for Jim McGhee

How could I find a copy of the memoir that you and Bryan were discussing in 2005?

Bryan: Several Missouri men from Co B, Matlock's Ark Regiment, joined the battery. They previously had been members of Jeffers' Mo Independent Cavalry Company, the Swamp Rangers. One of them, Joseph Coker, later wrote a short paper, which is part of the Thomas Ewing Family Papers, Library of Congress,which is directed toward the Battle of Pilot Knob,Mo. However, he traces some of his prior experiences, including a little on his service in Brown's Battery. Now that I think of it, didn't I send you an excerpt from that memoir awhile back?
