R. T. C. Robinson, of Range, Ala., writes: "As I know that the object of the VETERAN is to record true history of the War between the States, I want to correct a mistake in the sketch of Major Milner in the January number where it was stated that the 17th and 33rd Alabama Regiments were consolidated, when it should have been the 16th and 33rd. At the consolidation of Johnston's Army at Greensboro, N. C., a few days before the surrender, the 1st, 16th, 33rd, and 45th Alabama Regiments were consolidated and surrendered as the 1st Alabama Regiment. . . . I was a private of Company D, 45th Alabama."
