Capt R.H. Hart, NOT Capt William Hart

Danny, and others....

Based on the information below, I am coming to believe that the CPT Hart that Hindman refers to in his 8/5 message to Gen Cooper is Capt R.H. Hart, not CPT William A Hart. What do you think?

Little Rock [Arkansas]
June 4th 1862
Capt Jno [John] B. Lockman or, Capt R.H. hart, Gayoso, Memphis.
Hurry up ordanance. If you can't get a very light steamer, come up White river to Duvals [DeVall's] Bluff thence here by rail. If possible bring a pile driver with engine and fixtures complete. Telegraph when you start and on what boat, also from Helena. Lose not an hour.
T. [Thomas] C. Hindman Maj. Genl. Comdg.
