FAYETTE COUNTY IN THE REBELLION. The first gun discharged from the rebel batteries at the stars and stripes, floating over the ramparts of Fort Sumter, resounded over the waters and through the valleys, reverberating from hill to hill, proclaimed to the patriots of this country the intelligence throughout the vast Union, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, that the old flag was insulted, the government in danger, and that the brave sons of Ohio were called upon to protect the old ship of state. Ohio as a whole responded nobly to the call for volunteers. Fayette County, as a part of that glorious whole, sprang to the rescue. The fires of patriotism were lighted in every loyal heart, not only of her brave sons, but her noble women, who, with Spartan heroism, urged them to the tented fields. FIFTY-FOURTH OHIO VOLUNTEER INFANTRY. Recruiting for this regiment began in the latter part of the summer of 1861, the place of the rendezvous being Camp Dennison, where the regiment was organized and drilled during the fall of 1861. The men composing this command were from the counties of Allen, Auglaize, Butler, Cuyahoga, Fayette, Greene, Hamilton, Logan, and Preble. On the 17th of February, 1862, the regiment went into the field with an aggregate of eight hundred and fifty men. The 54th reached Paducah, Kentucky, February 20, 1862, and was assigned to a brigade in the division commanded by General Sherman.

The regiment moved with the army to La Grange, Tennessee, and from there to Holly Springs; from there to Moscow, Tennessee, and thence to Memphis, where it arrived July 21, 1862.

On the 6th of May the regiment began its march to the rear of Vicksburg by way of Grand Gulf, and was engaged in the battles of Champion Hills and Big Black Bridge. It was engaged in a general assault on the enemy's works in the rear of Vicksburg, on the 19th and 22d of June, losing in the two engagements forty-seven killed and wounded.

IN THE REBELLION - 385 After the fall of Vicksburg, the 54th moved with the army upon Jackson, Mississippi, and was constantly engaged in skirmishing, from the 9th to the 14th of July. After the capture of Jackson, the regiment returned to Vicksburg, and remained until October, 1863, when, forming a part of the Fifteenth Army Corps, it ascended the Mississippi River to Memphis, and from there proceeded to Chattanooga. It was engaged in the battle of Missionary Ridge, November 26th, and next day marched to the relief of the garrison, at Knoxville, Tennessee. It pursued the enemy's wagon-train from Knoxville through the southeastern portion of Tennessee, and a short distance into North Carolina, and then returned to Chattanooga, and moved thence to Larkinsville, Alabama, where it went into winter quarters, January 12, 1864. The regiment was mustered into the service as a veteran organization on the 22d of January, and at once started to Ohio on a furlough. It returned to camp in April, with an addition of two hundred recruits, and entered on the Atlanta campaign on the first of May. It participated in a general engagement at Resaca, and at Dallas, and in a severe skirmish at New Hope Church, June 6th and 7th.

It was in a heavy skirmish at Jonesboro, August 30th, and in a general action at the same place, two days immediately following. After resting a few weeks in camp, near Atlanta, the regiment started in pursuit of Hood, and followed him within sixty miles of Chattanooga, and from there to Gadsend, Alabama, when it returned to Atlanta, and prepared for the march to Savannah. The 54th started on that wonderful march on the 15th of November, and on the 15th of December, was engaged in the assault and capture of Fort McAlister, near Savannah. 386 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY.

This regiment was organized at Lancaster, Ohio, on the 15th of July, 1862, by the military committees of the counties of Fayette, Pickaway, Fairfield, Hocking, Vinton, and Perry. August 28, 1862, the organization of the regiment was completed, and it was mustered into service. Its aggregate strength was thirty-eight commissioned officers, and nine hundred and forty-three men. At 8 o'clock P. M., August 29th, it was on its way to Covington, Kentucky, where it reported to Major General Wright, on the 30th. At 10 A. M. it was on the cars, with orders to report to General Nelson, at Lexington, Kentucky. General Nelson being disabled by a wound, Colonel Ross reported to General Wright, who had assumed command. This officer ordered Major Yeoman to take four companies and picket all the approaches to the city. This duty was faithfully performed until 3 o'clock of September 1st, when rumors of the advance of the rebel army from Richmond became so strong that orders were issued to burn the army stores and prepare to move at once. By 7 o'clock P. M. the regiment was in line on the Versailles turnpike, detailed as guard for the wagon train, four companies in the rear, under Major Yeoman, and six in the advance, under Colonels Ross and Rippey. At 4 P. M. the national forces had reached Versailles, a distance of twelve miles, and was in full retreat. The forced march was IN THE REBELLION - 395 continued to Louisville, the men suffering terribly from thirst and the stifling dust. The fatigue was truly agonizing, This suffering was intensely aggravated by guarding the wells and cisterns along the road, which compelled the officers and soldiers to drink from the stagnant pools beside the road. The command consisted mostly of new levies, consequently the men were unused to such hardships, and many sank under the terrible strain. At Shelbyville (a beautiful village) the thirst of the men was alleviated by the clear, cold, spring water, kindly issued to each man by the citizens, as the column passed along. At 1 o'clock P. M., September 5th, the regiment reached its camping-ground, near Louisville, having marched one hundred miles in eighty-six hours—taking, in the meantime, less than sixteen hours sleep. The regiment remained in camp until the 5th of September, engaged in picket duty and drill. On the 16th it was assigned to Brigadier General Craft's brigade, of Brigadier General Woodruff's division. After maneuvering in the vicinity of Louisville for several days, the regiment was assigned to the twenty-second brigade, Brigadier General Charles Crafts; fourth division, General W. S. Smith ; twenty-first army corps, General T. L. Critenden, and marched with General Buell's army in pursuit of the rebel forces under General Bragg. On the 8th of October it approached to within two miles of Perryville. The musketry of the battle was distinctly heard, but from some unaccountable cause the regiment was not allowed to engage in the conflict. October 10th it moved on the Danville road, and on the 11th reached that place. On the 12th it moved to the left of Danville, and in front of Camp Dick Robison. On the 13th it counter-marched to Danville, and on the 14th resumed the pursuit of Bragg, and bivouacked near Stanford. On the 15th, at noon, it reached Crab Orchard. Passing through Mt. Vernon, it crossed Little Rockcastle River, and, meeting the enemy posted on the road leading to Wildcat Mountain, drove them from that position. On the 20th the regiment surprised twelve hundred of the enemy, and with a yell swooped down upon them, capturing two hundred prisoners, and over two hundred head of cattle. While on this march it effectually destroyed the Goose Creek salt works, a valuable depot, from which the rebels had long been drawing their supplies of that indispensable article. 396 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY. The march through this region was one of great hardship. Many of the men were shoeless, and in marching over the snow-clad roads, they left their foot-prints marked with blood. October 27th the regiment bivouacked near Somerset. Continuing the march, it passed over the battleground of Mill Springs, and on the 4th of November reached Glasgow, Kentucky. It remained here until the 8th, when it broke camp, and on the 19th marched through Nashville, and went into camp nine miles beyond that city. December 26, 1862, the regiment moved with the army on Murfreesboro, Tennessee, and on the 27th bivouacked on Stewart's Creek. December 29th, at 8 o'clock A. M., the forward movement was resumed, the regiments marching in divisions, and columns at half distance. At 7 P. M.,., on, the 30th, the division was massed in a cotton field, badly mixed, and in no condition for offensive movements. This was within one mile of Stone River. The morning of the 31st found the regiment in line. After standing thus for some hours, hearing the din of battle in the rear, its turn came to be placed face to face with the enemy, where it fought as cooly as if it had been on a hundred battlefields. The enemy was, however, in too great numbers, and the 90th being without support was compelled to fall back on the main force. The regiment lost in this fight one hundred and thirty men killed, wounded and missing. Six officers were wounded : Captain M. B. Rowe, Lieutenant L. W. Reahard, of Company K ; Lieutenant Welsh, of Company D; First Lieutenant T. E. Baker, of Company C ; and Second Lieutenant J. N. Selby, of Company II; and Captain Thomas Raines, of Company F; Captain Alvah Perry and Lieutenant J. F. Cook, were captured. At 12 o'clock M., the regiment was again formed on the left of the Nashville turnpike, and supported a battery the rest of the day. The men having lost their blankets and knapsacks suffered terribly that night from the cold. January 1, 1863, the third day of the battle, the regiment was in line all day, but the most of the fighting was done by the artillery. On the morning of the 2d it occupied the position on which was massed those forty pieces of artillery which sent Breckenridge's rebel corps howling back over Stone River. At 5 P. M. General Palmer ordered the 90th Ohio and the 31st Indiana to move over an open field. They obeyed, and charged a rebel position still on the national side of Stone River, and with but little loss became masters of it. IN THE REBELLION - 397 On the 4th the enemy was nowhere to be seen, and the day was spent in burying the dead of the regiment, who were found stripped of all their clothing except their drawers. Those seriously wounded were found with their wounds undressed, and in a most terrible condition. Colonel Ross, who led the regiment in this battle, and who proved himself a brave and efficient officer, was immediately after sent to the rear in serious ill-health. Lieutenant Colonel Rippey succeeded to the command. On the 14th of April, Colonel Ross resigned, and Lieutenant Colonel Rippey was promoted colonel, and Major Yeoman was appointed lieutenant colonel. The regiment lay in camp near Murfreesboro, with the rest of the army, until the 23d of June, when General Rosecrans commenced his movements on Tullahoma. After a hard march through the mud and rain, and over almost impassable mountains, skirmishing with the enemy at several points along the route, the 90th Ohio found itself, on the 12th of September, on West Chickamauga Creek, near Lee and Gordon's mills. On the 19th it was ordered to move, with its brigade, by the left flank to the support of General Thomas' corps. The line of battle passed at quick time over a cornfield and through a strip of timber, and on emerging from the timber discovered the enemy at close range, in the act of completing their movement of turning and inclosing General Thomas' right flank. This line was established at 1 P. M., and notwithstanding the repeated efforts of the enemy was held until 2:30 P. M., when, the supply of ammunition being exhausted, Colonel Rippey received orders to retire his regiment to a strip of timber one hundred and fifty yards in the rear. In his new position, Rippey made application for, and obtained a section of battery B, 1st Ohio Artillery, and with it held the enemy in check until a fresh supply of ammunation was obtained. It now became evident, from the advancing war of the musketry, upon the front and right, that the position was again being flanked. To meet this new movement, the regiment made a right half-wheel, about faced, and was in position to meet the impending charge of the enemy. To save a rout of the right, it was plain that a counter charge must be made. General Turchin gave the order, and the 90th Ohio led the charge in gallant style, causing the enemy to retreat in confusion. The rebels were followed some four hundred yards, when General Turchin called out, "Poys, we go far enough, 398 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY. we know not what is on our right, or what is on our left !" The 90th Ohio was next ordered to the support of General Johnson's division, now being hard pressed. September 20th, the brigade constructed works without the aid of axes, shovels, or picks ; upon which the enemy made two ineffectual assaults. The 90th Ohio was then ordered to relieve the 2d Kentucky, which it executed under a heavy fire from the enemy, losing five men in advancing to the line of works. The enemy finding the position too strong, massed his forces on the left of the brigade line, and succeeded in partially turning it, exposing the regiment to a rear and flank fire. It was by this fire that the gallant adjutant of the regiment., H. N. Kingery was killed. The national forces rallied, the enemy was in turn driven, and part of the lost ground recovered. During the battle, the breastwork of the regiment, (which consisted of logs) caught fire on the outside ; but the fire was extinguished by officers and men voluntarily, leaping the works and beating the fire out with their hands and clubs. The enemy concentrated their fire on these brave men, but not a single officer or man was hit while so exposed. The enemy again pressed the right flank of the position, and succeeded in turtling it, which compelled the abanondment of the works. Retreating under fire on the Dry Valley road, which connects with the Rossville road, near that place, the command was again placed in position on a high ridge running nearly parallel with the Dry Valley road. Front this position the regiment was ordered to Rossville, which it reached at 10 P. M., and bivoucked in line of battle. The loss of the regiment, on the 19th and 20th, was three officers killed : Adjutant Kingery, Captain R. D. Caddy, Lieutenant N. A. Patterson mortally wounded; and eighty-three non-commissioned officers and privates killed, wounded and missing. The national army fell back on the 21st and 22d of October, behind intrenchments at Chattanooga. On the 25th, the division and regiment crossed the Tennessee River, and moving down it at daylight, ran the gauntlet of rebel sharp-shooters posted at the narrows, without loss. This march extended to Bridgeport, Alabama, where the regiment arrived on the 2nd of November, at 10 o'clock, P. M. It was engaged in building fortifications until the 29th, and was then given charge of three thousand five hundred rebel prisoners taken at Mission Ridge. The regiment then returned to Bridgeport. IN THE REBELLION - 399 On the 24th of January, 1864, the regiment received marching orders. It moved through Chattanooga and out on the Knoxville Railroad to Ooltowah, Tennessee, and there went into camp. It was engaged at this point in various important scouts. Colonel Yeoman was now in command of the regiment, Colonel Rippey having resigned and returned to Ohio. The camp at Oottowah was abandoned on the 30th of May, at 1 o'clock P. M., and then commenced the movement of the great Atlanta campaign. For one hundred and twenty days the 90th Ohio, in company with the national forces, marched, fought, and suffered, until the 8th of September, 1864, it had the satisfaction of entering the city of Allanta, " fairly won." The regiment camped here, from the 8th of September, until the 3d of October, when it received orders to move. Passing through Atlanta, and out the Marietta road, it reached a point four miles south of Marietta, and eighteen from Atlanta. From this point, the regiment made its way over pretty much the same ground it had marched in its advance on Atlanta. Every nerve was strained to intercept and check-mate the rebel general, Hood, who was making his way toward Nashville. All the familiar blood-bought scenes on the march were again viewed by the brave men ; and while in camp, lying behind breastworks which had been constructed by rebel hands, the story of their deeds were recounted, and new resolves made. The regiment, with the fourth corps, participated in all the brilliant fights on the way, including that of Franklin, a battle that has been pronounced one of the most bloody and desperate of the whole war. It was also, in the battle before Nashville, and after victory had crowned the national arms, joined in the pursuit of the demorilized rebels to the banks of the Tennessee River. Returning, the regiment marched to the left in the direction of Athens, and on the 4th of January, 1865, reached Huntsville, Alabama, where it went into camp, two miles east of the city, at the foot of Mount Sinai. It remained here until the 1st of March, 1865, when it moved to Nashville and remained there until the surrender of the rebel armies. It was then sent home to Ohio and mustered out of the service. On the evening of the 12th of June, 1865, as the 90th Ohio Volunteer Infantry was about returning home, the 31st Indiana Veteran Volunteer Infantry paid them a visit, to express their appreci- 400 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY. ation of their services as patriot soldiers, and love for them as comrades. The following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted, not as favor, but as an expression of their hearts' sentiment: WHEREAS, The 90th Ohio Volunteer Infantry are about returning to their homes, to again assume their citizenship, after three years' faithful service in their country's defense; and, WHEREAS, We of the 31st Indiana Veteran Infantry have been intimately associated with them while in the army; shared in their dangers, their hardships, their privations, and in their victories—forming affections and ties, as lasting as life itself ; therefore, Resolved, That we hail with joy the order that allows our comrades of the 90th Ohio Volunteer Infantry to again assume the duties of civil life, amid the magic influences of home associations, and home endearments. Resolved, That mutual dangers, and common interests, during the long struggle for national life, has begotten a feeling of love and friendship between us that can never be forgotten, and can only be appreciated by soldiers, and that along with comrades brave, who have fallen by our sides in battle, will be cherished our associations with the 90th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Resolved, That in the future, all the happiness and honor, the peace and prosperity ever vouchsafed to man, we most cordially wish to attend the members of the 90th Ohio; and that ever hereafter, the talismanic watchword, that shall leap over all the conventionalities of society, and appeal directly to our heart's best sympathies and love, shall be, "I belonged to the 90th Ohio Volunteer Infantry." Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be not furnished to the Cincinnati Commercial, or any other paper for publication, but be treasured in our memories as the utterance of our heart's deepest sentiments. GEORGE M. NOBLE, Captain 31st Indiana Veteran Volunteers. Headquarters 1st Division, 4th Army Corps, Camp Harker, Tennessee, June 11, 1865. } Colonel S. N. Yeoman. : You, with officers and men of the 90th Ohio, after three years of IN THE REBELLION - 401 gallant devotion to the cause of our common country, in this war against rebellion, are now about to return to your homes, with honor unstained, and with reputations bright with glory. Your deeds will live forever. In nearly every battle, from the southwest, you have been engaged ; from Corinth, through Perryville, Stone River, Chickamauga, Resaca, Rocky Trace, Dallas, Franklin, and Nashville, you have borne the flag of the union, and banner of your noble state to victory over the foe, who would have destroyed the government and union made by our fathers. God has given you the victory. Remember him ; and, now that the war is over, the rebellion at an end, remember those whom you have conquered. Use victory as becoming true men and brave soldiers; return to your homes with enmity towards none and charity for all. I know that you will be the best of citizens, because I know you have been the best of soldiers. While we live, enjoying the honor and privileges which our victory has won and saved, let us ever cherish, as the idol of our hearts, the memory of our comrades who have given up their lives for the salvation of their country ; who fell by our sides battling for right. Remember the widows and orphans of our dead comrades; be true to them, as our comrades were true to their country. My comrades, accept my gratitude for your devotion to me personally. You have been true and noble soldiers, and brave men. May God ever bless you, and crown your lives with happiness, and each of you with peace and plenty. Be as you ever have been—true to God, to your country's friends, and to yourselves. Good-by, comrades; again, God bless you. NATHAN KIMBALL, Brev't. Major-General Commanding. COMPANY K.

IN THE REBELLION - 407 ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEENTH O. V. I. The 114th Ohio was recruited in August, 1862, from the counties of Perry, Fairfield, Pickaway, Fayette, Hocking, and Vinton. It rendezvoused at Camp Circleville, and was mustered into the United States service September 11, 1862. The regiment remained in Camp Circleville until the 19th of September, 1862, when it was ordered to Marietta. Marching from Circleville, it took the cars at Chillicothe for Marietta, arriving at the last named place September 21, 1862, and went into camp six weeks, occupying the time in drilling and equipping for the field. December 1, 1862, the regiment was ordered to Memphis. On the 20th it moved on transports down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, to Johnson's Landing, on the Yazoo River, where it joined General Sherman's army then about to operate in the rear of Vicksburg. On the 26th of December the regiment landed near Chickasaw Bluffs, and participated in the assault on the enemy's works on Chickasaw Bayou. It was actively engaged during the whole of this battle, and severely engaged on the 28th and 29th. In one of these affairs Lieutenant Wilson, of Company F, was severely wounded by a shell in the foot, which had to be amputated a few days thereafter. Lieutenant Mayfield, of Company B, was killed by a sharp-shooter. The regiment lost several others, killed and wounded. On the night of January 1, 1863, at 10 o'clock, the army commenced the retreat, and at sunrise of the 2d the entire command was on board the boats. Before the boats could be detached from shore the rebels fired into them, wounding one man of the regiment. During the six days the regiment remained on this disastrous field, the men suffered intensely from the heat and cold. After leaving Chickasaw Bluffs, the fleet of transports moved up the river, and on the morning of the 10th of January, 1863, cast anchor near Arkansas Post. The forces were landed, and preparations made for an attack on the fortifications. At 10 A. M., January 11th, the attack was commenced, and after a brisk engagement between the national and rebel forces, and a heavy cannonade from the national gunboats stationed in the rear, the post 408 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY. was surrendered, and the fort was occupied at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The national troops, after disposing of the material and prisoners captured, re-embarked on the transports and sailed down the Yazoo River to Young's Point, Louisiana, where they arrived on the 23d of January. During the stay of the regiment in this camp it suffered severely from sickness and death, losing over one hundred men in the space of six weeks. From the 1st of December, 1862, to the 6th of February, 1863, the regiment was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel H. B. Maynard, Colonel Cradlebaugh being absent in Washington City. From the 6th of February until March, 1863, it was commanded by Lieutenant Colonel John A. Kelley. March 1, 1863, Colonel Cradlebaugh returned, and took command. March 8, 1863, the 114th moved to Milliken's Bend, Louisiana, and went into camp, where it remained until the 5th of April. April 5, 1863, the national army, under General Grant, moved against Vicksburg. The 114th was in the whole of this campaign, and participated in the battle of Thompson's Hill, May 1, 1863 ; Champion Hills, May 16, 1863 ; Big Black Bridge, May 17th; and the seige of Vicksburg. In the battle at Thompson's Hill it lost several men killed and wounded in a charge made upon the enemy about 5 o'clock in the evening. The enemy was driven from the field, and two pieces of artillery, with a number of prisoners, were captured. The rebels were pursued until dark. In the battle of Big Black Bridge, the regiment had a number killed and wounded. Among the killed was Lieutenant Kennedy, of Company C. In the battle of Vicksburg, May 22, 1863, Colonel Cradlebaugh was severely wounded in the mouth, and a number of men killed and wounded. May 22, 1863, Lieutenant Colonel Kelley again took command of the regiment, Colonel Cradlebaugh's wound having disabled hint from duty. On the 25th the regiment was ordered to Warrenton (ten miles below Vicksburg), to garrison that post. This duty was quite severe, consisting of strict guard and fatigue duty. On the 14th of July the regiment was ordered back to Vicksburg, where it remained in camp until the 13th of August. It was then sent to Corralton, six miles above New Orleans. September 6th it moved IN THE REBELLION - 409 by rail to Brashear City, or Berwick Bay, and remained there up to October 3d. It then marched by way of Franklin, New Iberia and Vermillionville, to Opelouses, Louisiana, a distance of about two hundred miles from New Orleans. Remaining at Opelouses but a few days, the regiment marched back to New Orleans, wherE it arrived November 22, 1863. This campaign was rather pleasant the whole of it being made without the slightest trouble from the enemy. November 28, 1863, the regiment embarked at New Orleans, and sailed for Texas. Lauding at Pass Caballo, it went into camp at Decrow's Point, December 3, 1863. It remained on this barren sand coast until the 14th of January, 1864, and then moved to Matagorda Island. Remaining at this place until April 18, 1864. it was ordered to Alexandria, Louisiana, and arrived there April 26th. General Banks' army was met at Alexandria, where it had fallen back after its disastrous repulse. While at Alexandria the regiment was engaged in the affair at Graham's plantation, twelve miles out on the road. The national forces retreated from Alexandria, May 13th, and arrived at Morganza, Louisiana, on the Mississippi River, May 22d. The enemy was engaged, and defeated at Marksville and at Yellow Bayou. This campaign. was very severe—forced marches of ten days duration through the stifling heat and dust, and being continually harassed by the enemy, on both flank and rear, made it almost unendurable. As the Mississippi appeared in view, the weary host sent up a glad shout at the certainty that their troubles and fatigues had for a time ended. Colonel Cradlebaugh did not take command of the regiment after having been wounded, but resigned October 20, 1863. Lieutenant Colonel John H. Kelley, was promoted and commissioned colonel to rank, from October 20, 1863, but was not mustered ; the regiment being reduced below the minimum. While the 114th lay at Morganza, it was concerned in several raids, scouts and skirmishes, but did not meet with any severe engagements. On November 21, 1864, the regiment was ordered to the mouth of White River, Arkansas, arriving there November 26th. While at this point, the 120th Ohio was consolidated with the 114th by which the following named officers were rendered supernumery, and were honorably mustered out of service : Captains, 410 - HISTORY OF FAYETTE COUNTY. James Duffy, William H. Shultz, John C. Hays and John Brandt; First Lieutenants, M. B. Radcliff, A. B. Messmore, Benjamin S. Shirely, James M. Davis and Alexander S. Thompson; Adjutant Lewis M. Earnest, and Surgeon O. E. French. On December 6, 1864, the regiment was ordered to Morganza, Louisiana, where it arrived on the 8th, and went into camp the next day. On the 13th and 14th it was out on an expedition to the Atchafalaya River, but did not find the enemy. January 8th, 1865, the regiment moved to Kenna, Louisiana, where it remained until the 24th, and was then ordered to Barraicas, Florida. It remained at this camp up to May, 1865, when the war having virtually ended, it was sent with other forces to Texas. In July it was ordered to Columbus, Ohio, to be paid off and mustered out. During its term of service, the 114th marched by land and water over ten thousand miles, performing duty in ten different states, and was engaged in eight hard fought battles and many skirmishes. It was successful in all except the affair at Chickasaw Bayou. It lost in killed and wounded, six officers and eighty men. The loss by disease was very great the first year, about two hundred men having died, and quite a number discharged for disability. The latter part of the service of the regiment was singularly free from casualties. For nineteen months no regimental burying occurred, an almost miraculous exception. COMPANY C.
