I certify, on honor, that the above is an accurate roll of the company "C" of the first regiment of Oregon mounted volunteers under my command, and that the remarks set opposite the name of each officer and soldier are, to the best of my knowledge and belief, correct and just.

Samuel B. Stafford,

Dated this thirty-first day of December, 1855 Commanding the Company.
