Dwiggins, in reference to his recruiting a company for the 99th Ind. Vol. Infantry: I don’t know what he done in thkt line for other regiments, but I know he did not recruit a man for the 99th for I was a member of that regiment for three years. I also know from what part of the state every company was organized and who organized it. Only one man was in the regiment from Jasper county, and that was John W. Warner, and he paid his own transportation to our camp at South Bend, Ind., about one week after we Went into camp, and went into my company and> was with us until he was killed the next winter down in Tennessee.
