http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/50741068

Hogarty, a 2nd Lt. in 45th Infantry Regt., writes to Brig. Gen. John Ely concerning his recent assignment to proceed to Owensboro, KY, to apprehend 3 men accused of murdering an Army Lt. One of the men, Walter McDaniel, was known to live in Owensboro. Two houses were searched without success. Due to suspected presence of 50-60 former rebels and a lack of provisions for a prolonged pursuit, the search for the men was abandoned and Hogarty returned to Louisville.
