"... There is also some correspondence concerning the court martial of Enoch Lewis, involving Enoch's apparent alcoholic tendencies and a 'strumpet witness.' This matter was resolved by June of 1864, however, and Enoch was once again with the army, assuring Wayne: 'My officers and men like me much. I have obtained the cognomen of "Bold Bugger." I got that in the first fight.' " His father was likely Joseph J. Lewis, lawyer, newspaperman, and later President Lincoln's Commissioner of Internal Revenue (1863-65).2
