Leaves of absence

See also officers' furloughs November 1864-July 1865, and enlisted men's furloughs, October 1864-July 1865.

[Note: I need to go back through the earlier letters and orders, and to add other men absent on furlough when the regiment mustered out]

On 13 January 1865, Sellers ordered that applications for furlough be made to company commanders, who will forward only urgent cases, where "the applicant can be recommended for punctually good conduct and soldierly qualities". The applications had formerly been made directly to the regimental headquarters. [special order 5, HQ 91st PA, 13 Jan 65]
