Abstract

"On the 6th of January, 1863, the Governor of Oregon, pursuant to request of War Department through General Wright, issued a proclamation calling for six additional companies of First Oregon Cavalry. Not until the 10th of August, 1863 was one company mustered into service. It is the only company raised under the call. The remaining five companies have never been raised. Causes..mining excitement and temptations of the coast, in the depreciation of legal-tender notes and the absence of the war stimulus."
