    Re: Possible Memphis Arsenal Cavalry Equipment sets?

    Ok, we have more evidence as to what was coming out of Memphis/Columbus MS.

    CSR of Maj. N. Chambliss,

    Ordnance Stores received at Grenada MS, May 24th 1862 from Capt. Logwood, MSK

    401 Saddles
    401 Bridles
    401 Halters
    401 Valises
    401 Holsters
    401 Breast Straps
    401 Gun Boots
    401 Cruppers
    401 Surcingles

    Now just a few days before, on May 20th 1862, our friend Capt. Stockton sent to Grenada, among other things, 498 "Cloth" Valises.

    I seem to recall that Ken's site has a pic of a cloth Valise on it?
