Information Wanted.

To the citizens of the United States: GENTLEMEN--Will some of you be so kind as to tell me what was the name of the colored regiment, if so it was called one, stationed at or on President Island, about five miles below Memphis, Tenn? I had a brother who enlisted in it, I suppose in 1861, also served as a soldier until his death, which occurred in the latter part of of 1863 or early in 1864. His name is Gabriel Wood, colored, and I desire to find out, if possible, the name of the regiment and company he belonged to. Please answer through the GLOBE-DEMOCRAT, or by addressing Miles P. Wood, at 1342 N. Jefferson avenue, St. Louis, Mo.
