Removal of Troops
Summary
Six companies of the 14th NJ Regiment were removed from the Monocacy Junction and relocated elsewhere on the B&O Railroad. They are replaced at Monocacy Junction by troops from the Third Delaware Regiment and Purnell Legion, a move which may “[relieve] a portion of the troops … from the temptations and evil associations of the town [Frederick].”
