OFFICIAL CITATION
"Second Award: Rescued, with two companies, two white girls by a voluntary attack upon Indians whose superior numbers and strong position would have warranted delay for reinforcements, but which delay would have permitted the Indians to escape and kill their captives. Note: Baldwin's first award took place during the Civil War while serving with the 19th Michigan Infantry."
