From the New Albany Daily Ledger 14 Sep 1864 p2 c2:

     Casualties in the 38th and 22d Indiana Regiments at Jonesboro, Georgia.—The following are the casualties in the 38th and 22d Indiana regiments in the late engagement at Jonesboro, Georgia. We have information that the Thirty-Eighth behaved with the most distinguished gallantry on the occasion, making a charge upon and capturing a strong position of the enemy, after three other regiments had failed to accomplish the same work.

     When color-Sergeant George W. Field was killed, Lieutenant Thomas Redding, of Salem, seized the colors, and bearing them aloft charged with his company, in the most gallant and impetuous manner, carrying the enemy’s works. Col.. Griffin publicly complimented his daring gallantry.

     The Thirty-Eighth is considered the best regiment in its corps, and will never fail to distinguish itself in action.

     The following are the casualties:
