LOCAL SOLDIER HISTORY.
Muster Roll of Company D, 93d Indiana.

We have before us a duplicate muster out roll of one of the companies of soldiers that went from Switzerland county—D, 93d Indiana Infantry, commanded by Capt. F. L. Courvoiser. There was also another company from this county in this regiment—C, commanded by Capt. Samuel B. Davis. The total enlistment of Co. D. was 102 men, all of which are accounted for. When mustered out there was but 9 officers commissioned and non-commissioned, and 21 privates, present for duty. Of those absent 9 were sick and 10 were prisoners of war. We publish the muster roll nearly entire, condensing some portions of “remarks” to save space. It is one of the two muster rolls signed by the muster-out officer. Capt. Theo. Livings found it among his papers and has sent it to Capt. Courvoiser, at San Francisco, California, who needs it corresponding with pensioners:

The company was organized by Captain Daniel B.
