special duty, or unable from some valid cause to comply with the order, 
the officers promoted and appointed will join their proper regiments, 
companies, and stations without delay. Those recently appointed who 
fail to do so within a reasonable time will be considered as having declined 
their appointments; and those who deem themselves included in the 
exception just above named will immediately submit a statement of their 
case, through the proper channel, to this office for further consideration.

this office, stating the cause, date, and place. 
When an officer away from his command dies in hospital, or under
