All staff officers are appointed or recommended for appointment by the
Colonel of the regiment. The offices of Regimental Quartermaster
and Commissary, the encumbents heretofore ranking as Captains, were

Company A--Willie Hance, Laurens.
Company B--N. Davidson, Newberry.
Company C--R.C. Maffett, Newberry.
Company D--N.F. Walker, Spartanburg.

Company F--P. Williams, Laurens.
Company G--R.P. Todd--Laurens.
Company H--John C. Summer, Lexington.

Company K--S.M. Langford, Spartanburg.
