Oh, so I have a cabinet card. Mine is way bigger than CDV dimensions. That's bugging me now, who wrote that stuff? He was dead the winter he resigned.
"Who wrote that stuff?!? " The back of the cabinet card (circa 1880-1890) was written by O. E. Harmon (See where it's written "Compliments of O. E. Harmon")
Who is O. E. Harmon, you ask? Well, first off he is the son of Asa Harmon. So what you may say?
Well, his father Asa was Chaplain of the 3rd Michigan Cavalry. Bingo! It's a match!
Read more below about the Harmons.
(By the way, the photo is of Capt. Collins Davis. You have the name reversed.)
