The first military organization was termed a "Light Horse Company," commanded by Captain Benoni Pierce. They were mustered in by Samuel Thompson, in 1809. This was probably the first cavalry company in Southeastern Ohio, and took an active part in the war with the Indi- ans, and "the War of '12." Captain Pierce was killed in a battle with Indians. John Alter, Sr., (father of John Alter, who died in Zanesville,

September 30th, 1879) was a member of this company. The last named furnished this information.
The "Muskingum Messenger" and "Ohio Intelligencer," of January, 18—, contained the following :
"BRIGADE ORDERS.—The commissioned officers of the First Battalion, in the First Regiment of the Fourth Brigade, will meet at the court house in Zanesville, on Friday, the first day of February, next, at ten o'clock, A. M., for the purpose of electing a Colonel of said regiment. The commissioned officers of the Second Battalion will meet for the same purpose, on Saturday, the
2d of February, next, at ten o'clock, A. M., at the house of William Burnam, Esq., in Springfield. The cavalry officers attached to the First Battalion Regiment will vote with the First Battalion.
''LEWIS CASS,
"Brig. Gen., 4th B., 3d Div."
In 1812, James Herron was appointed a captain in the regular army, and had charge of one of the recruiting stations in Zanestown. His office was first in "Mud Hollow," and then on South. Fifth street.
"In the fall of 1818, an artillery company was formed. It was the first after the war of '12." July 4th, 1825, this company, commanded by Captain John Stanton, proceeded to Licking Summit, and assisted in the celebration of the completion of the Ohio canal. Their skill in artillery practice was much admired. Colonel John Sockman handled a six-pounder so well, that the Zanestown company received the honors in the contest in gunnery.
MILITIA TRAINING.—Under the old regime this was kept up long after any necessity for it existed, and the citizens seemed powerless to abolish it. On this account, some waggish citizens determined to try the effect of ridicule, and, about 1833, organized the "Fantasticals," for the purpose of burlesquing the militia.
"The dull burlesque appeared with impudence,
And pleased by novelty, in spite of sense."
They were in their glory in 1834, and afforded infinite amusement to the members, as well as citizens, generally, and successfully brought into contempt the militia trainings, so that they came out against their will. The organization, though composed of the bon ton, carried the day in buffoonery. It is said that they were even hideous. The most grotesque costume was the desideratum, and when the "Fantasticals" were out in full feather, the "Cornstalk Militia" made what might be called an involuntary appearance ! Lem. Owens was Colonel Pluck, in command of the Fantasticals, and prided himself in his suit of calico ; the coat cut 'spike tail,' and adorned with white buttons of monster proportions ; the shoulders decorated with enormous sun-flowers, politely termed epaulets. His sword was of burnished tin, ten feet long ; his spurs were on the same liberal pattern, about eighteen inches in diameter ; his hat was of dimensions that would have gratified the most ambitious hussar, and was adorned with a sweeping fox tail ; his hands were stained with poke-berries, in imitation of lavender kids ; and his lavender neck-tie was "perfectly excruciating," with ends almost touching the ground, borne now here, now there, by the playful wind. Such was the patriotism that pervaded the community, that even "Parson Jones" was inspired to lend his old mare to Colonel Pluck, for the occasion, notwithstanding the antiquity of the quadruped, and as a compliment, in remembrance of her ancestral reputation, which, though traditional, was handed down from father to son, with scrupulous fidelity, recounting the different fluids of fine blooded animals that were supposed to course through her veins, but, of course, saying nothing about how long and severely she had been over- strained, remembering her once fiery spirit, when young blood flowed vigorously through the now shadowy form—they named her Bucephalus and thought of Alexander, and his famous charger ! They bedecked her with gay caparisons, held her head up and led her forth, so altered in apperance, that the gallant Colonel Pluck scarce knew the old mare. There was a charm about this new created charger ; it was her airy form ; it gave unmistakable assurance of offering the least possible resistance to the air through which it passed. And it is not improbable, notwithstanding her heraldry and pride of birth, that her rider inwardly exclaimed :
" A horse ! A horse, " etc.
And yet, with gravity becoming the occasion, he caused his orderlies to take position on either side of the steed, ostensibly to hold the stirrups until his feet were adjusted therein, but really to secure him against accident, in case the mare should give way under "the conquering hero." The applause of the multitude, as they beheld this strategic performance, was both long and loud, and not withheld when they beheld the glow of patriotism that illumined the faces of the rank and file, and saw with what alacrity every command was obeyed, convincing even the "Cornstalk Militia" of their warlike bearing and character.
" Happy he whose inward ear
Angel comfortings can hear
O'er the rabble's laughter ;
And, while hatred's fagots burn,
Glimpses through the smoke discern
Of the good hereafter."
With this thought uppermost, "The Fantasticals" marched and counter-marched up and down Main street, and over to "John Lee's Tavern," in West Zanesville, the usual rendezvous of the "Cornstalk Militia," and where they called their roll, in imitation of whom the Fantasticals also called their roll. And however disciplinary this part of their performance may have been intended, it was manifest that no member was guilty of absenting himself, or ashamed to
MERKLE'S BREWERY, Zanesville.
Canning House of UNGEMACH & STERN, Zanesville, Ohio.
IN the spring of 1882 the above gentlemen pur- chased the old Wainwright Brewery, in the Third ward, in close proximity to the banks of the Mus- kingum river. The factory is forty by one hun- dred and sixty feet in the clear, with a canning capacity of fifteen thousand cans per day. In the busy season from two to three hundred men, women and children find profitable employment within its walls. This is the only establishment of the kind in this section of the country, and is fitted up with all modern improvements. As Muskingum county is known to be in the fruit belt of the State, the success of this house is assured. All fruits and vegetables purchased are carefully selected, prior to canning. Orders flow in almost uninterruptedly, and the firm are kept quite busily engaged in supplying their Eastern and Western trade.

be heard, although their names would have taxed the ability of the nomads of Europe, Asia, Africa, North and South America, and "the rest of mankind," to pronounce ; they responded in stentorian voice that would have become either of the orators of those people. It was indeed a marvelous demonstration, and the Fantasticals were the acknowledged victors in this bloodless fray, while, with a shout, the cry went up, long live Colonel Pluck and the Fantasticals . And the militia were permitted to retire to their peaceful homes, and the hospitality of a grateful people !
THE ZANESVILLE GUARDS, was the next Organization. This was completed about 1839. The following account, written by a participant, and published in the Zanesville "Courier," was found among E. H. Church's papers :
"The Guards never failed to celebrate the Fourth of July by a parade, and, after the parade, sat down and enjoyed a sumptuous repast, drank toasts, made patriotic speeches, and passed the time away most pleasantly. In those early days,, the greed for gold had not eaten into the marrow of the citizens Of Zanesville. A man was not valued then by the size of his bank account, or in accordance with the amount of blue blood which coursed through his veins. The ladies of Zanesville were always present upon such occasions. And the ladies of those days were intelligent, graceful and beautiful.
"They took pride in the company and its entertainments. It was considered an honor to be present on such occasions. Perhaps the people of the present day would like to know what kind of toasts were drank in the olden time at these entertainments given by the Guards. For the instruction of the present generation of young ladies who would shudder, with horror, at the thought of attending a military ball, we give the following toasts :
'The ladies of Zanesville—by the presentation of a flag to the Zanesville Guards, show themselves the magnanimous daughters of the patriotic mothers, who strewed with flowers and garlands, the path of a retiring and victorious Washington.'
'The ladies of Zanesville—Their modesty, virtue and intelligence, are all-sufficient Guards.'
'The ladies of Zanesville—Fair and patriotic. May patriotism shield them in union and matrimony in peace.'
'The Union of these States—Let it be en- graven on the heart of every true American.'
'The American—Who always sees stars, but never feels stripes.'
'The ladies of Zanesville and Putnam—Their beauty and worth, only exceeded by the extent of its circulation.'
The Fourth of July, '76—It has been celebrated with patriotic enthusiasm for upwards of half a century. For the perpetuity of a custom so glorious, I add, 'Keep time, old foot.'
'The Army of the United States—May the spirit of the Father ever animate the breast of the Son.'
'The Navy of the United States—Hearts of oak, few in number, strong in honor, great in fame.'
‘Let the toast be—Dear women.'
"Among those most prominent in getting up toasts for these entertainments, was Colonel N. A. Guille, who was always ready with a good ringing speech, whenever called upon."
The next company was the Putnam Greys, organized under R. N. Dunlap, who was elected Captain, but soon after resigned, and Captain Jesse P. Hatch, who had been their drill master, was elected to fill the vacancy. Matthew Ashmore made their uniforms, which consisted of dark grey cloth, swallow tailed coats, bound with black braid, brass buttons, black waist belts, black leather cartridge boxes, large white metal waist plate, inscribed with the letters P. G., black cord on the side seams of the pants, black leather caps, with white fountain plumes, tipped with blue.
They where armed with flint lock muskets, of the Harper's Ferry pattern.
The other officers were : William Ely, First Lieutenant ; Lawson Wiles, Second Lieutenant ; Waldo B. Guthrie, Orderly Sergeant. [The other officers not named.]
The company numbered, rank and file, eighty-four men. . The first appearance in full dress parade, was on the afternoon of October, loth, 1839 ; at which time, also, first appeared the Zanesville Light Infantry Battalion, Second Brigade, Fifteenth Division, Ohio Militia. Captain Hatch was a graduate of the military school at Norwich, Vermont, and had filled a professorship in the Virginia Military Academy. The members of the company were among the leading citizens of Putnam. The following are their names, as far .as can now be obtained : Jesse P. Hatch, William Ely, Waldo B. Gutbrie, Matthew Ashrnore, C. W. Potwin, Nathan Spear, R. N. Dunlap, Z. M. Chandler, Daniel McCarty-, Jackson Ely, William Berkshire, Stephen H. Guthrie, Albert Gillett, Frank Whipple, Martin Thomas, James Safford, Munroe Ayers, James G. Manly,. John Goshen, John Miser, Henry Ely, John Van Horne, Jerry Barber, Calvin Baltis, Joshua Josslyn, James Flynn, James McFeters, George Allen, Richard. Osborn, Henry Jones, Cyrus. Brown, Cornelius McCarty, Luke Stallard, William Munch, Lewis Munch, William Israel, George N. Guthrie, Frank Thompson, Charles Northrop, Welles, Hawes, Davis, Lindsay; William Alexander, Benjamin Tuttle, Alfred Jones,. Henry Ewing, John Weaver, Frank Taylor, John Irvin, James Launder, William Launder, James Alexander, Leroy Perry, Valentine Best, and John Forgraves. The musicians were : George Allen, fifer ; John Forgraves, snare. drummer ; and James Safford, bass drummer.
In the winter of 1839-40, the "Zanesville Lancers" were recruited by E. H. Churcb, and regularly organized and mustered in. Henry Clayton was elected Captain ; Jacob Sperry', First Lieutenant ; John D. Ford, Second Lieutenant ; and J. L. Fracker, Orderly Sergeant. The members of this company were all boys,
282 - HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO.
and numbered one hundred strong. Captain French, of the United States army, then a resident of Zanesville, was their drill-master. Soon after the organization, Samuel S. Cox was elected a member, and was promoted from the position of "high private" to Orderly Sergeant. It is said that Mr. Cox takes just pride in referring to this event in his life in Zanesville.
In 1840, this company occupied the post of honor in welcoming General William H. Harrison, Whig candidate for President, to this city. The meeting was held under the old elm tree, on North Sixth street. Here General Harrison de- livered his last political speech.
The members of the Lancers, as far as can now be learned, were : William Culbertson, John D. Ford, Joseph T. Ford, J. L. Fracker, William Dulty, Crosley, Caldwell, Charles Hunt- ington, William Mizer, Henry Clayton, Jacob Sperry, James Warner, Hiram Davidson, John P. Fox, Henry Stulson, H. Bell, George Covey, George Ross, Nat. Dutro, H. Parish, Richard Ball, Thomas Pierce, Henry I. Pierce, James Thompson, William Bailey, Wesley Hatton, Isaac Fell, Victor Fell, Solomon Brock, David Sheward, H. T. Pierce, John Winn, Henry Wil- ley, James Van Buren, and Owen and Albert Langworthy. .
These military companies demonstrated the latent military talent of the people—how readily they can take up arms, and how easily lay them down again. This ability, so completely dor- mant when peace reigns within our borders, has been found of the highest order when war's stern necessity called it forth, as the host of heroes on many a hard fought battle field attest.
MUSKINGUM COUNTY 1N THE WAR OF THE REBELLION.
When the Nation, striving only to enforce its lainrs and maintain its lawfully elected rulers, suddenly found itself plunged in a war that promised to envelop half its territory, it confided its "grand army" to the leadership of an Ohio general—Irvin McDowell ; and when beaten at the outset, less by the enemy than by its own rawness, that army retreated in disorder from the field it had fairly won, and the panic of the first Bull Run seemed to freeze the currents of National life, another Ohio general—George B. McClellan--was called to the command, as he came fresh from the first successful campaign, to restore confidence and reorganize the army. And, as invading the enemy's country—whose preparations for war, hitherto not comprehended, were found general and desperate—the difficulties so multiplied that the Nation found itself distrusting men of known sagacity, military skill, and courage, yet a new commander waS sought, and this time the trust was reposed in William S. Rosecrans.
As the war expanded, the State of Ohio con- tinued to preserve a similar prominence. Through three campaigns, the greatest of the National armies remained under the leadership of an Ohio general. This officer also succeeded the veteran, Scott, as General-in-Chief, in com- mand of all our armies. Yet another Ohioan, General Don Carlos Buell, commanded the great department which lay south of Ohio, till, after pushing back the war from the border to the Al- abama line, he was caught and submerged in its refluent tide, and another Ohio general was summoned from fields of victory in the Southwest, to take his place. General O. M. Mitchell, of Cincinnati, commanded the Department of the South, until death came to his release. And to another Ohioan, General Q, A. Gillmore, was reserved the honor of revolutionizing gunnery—in destroying the fort around which the war had opened, and in the downfall of which was echoed the doom of the Rebellion."
"Ah ! never shall the land forget
How gushed the life-blood of her brave—
Gushed, warm with hope and courage yet,
Upon the soil they fought to save."
Fathers, mothers, wives, sisters—aye, and brothers, too—mourn the loss of dear ones ; and many an empty sleeve and absent limb, shattered hand, and scar, remind us of the ravages of that war ; and it is but a slight tribute to those patriots, who, with their lives and treasure, subdued our enemies and saved our grand republic, that their names should be enrolled with whatever of praise we are capable of bestowing, for, whereas we were in greatest peril,
"Now, all is calm, and fresh, and still
Alone the chirp of flitting bird,
And talk of children on the hill,
And bell of murmuring kine, are heard ;"
And, from o'er the hills, we hear—like a sweet refrain—the Welcome song,
"Reign, gentle peace,
The din of war is heard no more;
The storm is past,
The cloud is o'er."
And Ohio hears, with pride, the names of U. S. Grant, P. H. Sheridan, and W. T. Sherman, praised by the Nation ; and yet, with a pride that language cannot, fully express, would she perpetuate the memory of those who tilled her regiments, made statesmen and generals ; they merit more praise than all others.
And in doing this, she would not forget the patriot fathers and mothers, who counted their sons and sent them forth. They followed them to the camps, saw them waste in action, and die of disease ; Saw them led by the inexperienced, to slaughter. Stricken with anguish, they still maintained their purpose, and numbered the people again, and sent fresh thousands. They followed them with generous gifts, and prayers. They cared for the stricken families, and made otherwise desolate lives beautiful with the charities of a gracious Christianity. They infused a religious zeal into the contest. They held their soldiers to be engaged in a holy war. They
HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 283
truly believed that through battle, and siege, and reverse, God was waiting, in His own good time, to give them the victory.
Almost every family had in that war one dead for the holy cause ; by almost every hearthstone, was heard lamention for those that were not. And yet there were those, in that dark and trying hour, who aforetime had been exalted to places of honor, who so far forgot the inevitable result as to aid treason, in trying to induce the people to pause, declaring the war a failure and a crime, and used their influence against the government, pretending to favor peace on any terms, save the blood of sons, husbands and fathers. But the patriot heart of father, mother, sister and wife, beat too strong, and they heeded not their traitorous counsel. And by a vote more decisive than had ever been known in the history of American elections, rejected the tempter. Thenceforth the position of Ohio has been a watchword to the Nation. And we refrain from giving the names of those traitors, preferring to leave them to the worst company we know of themselves. This will doubtless be the decision of every historian.
The State which contributed such leaders in the Cabinet, such Generals in the field, and an army of three hundred and ten thousand soldiers to follow them, may well be pardoned for desiring her achievements separately recorded, that finding themselves grouped together, those who come after us may trace their career with State, as well as National pride. And teach their sons to emulate. such as Grant, Sherman, Sheridan, Rosecrans, Mitchell, McPherson, McDowell, McClellan, Buell, Gillmore, Steedman, Hazen, Scheuch, Stanton, Chase, Wade, Dennison, Todd and Brough, and nearly every one of the two hundred and thirty military organizations.
They may see how by the aid of these, the army grew into shape and power, how it was led " always to honor," often " to victory," and finally to glorious success. " This was Ohio in the war."
Within twenty four hours after the President of the United States called for troops, the State Senate had matured, carried through the several readings, and passed a bill, appropriating one million of dollars for placing the State upon a war footing, and for assisting the General Government in meeting the shock of the Rebellion. On that memorable 15th day of April; 1861, Ohio's Capital was wild with the excitement of the call, to arms ! And on the 16th, the feeling was even more intense ; troops were arriving, the telegraph and mails were burdened with exhortations to the Legislature, to grant money and men, to any extent. The very air was laden with the clamor of war, and the swift haste of the people to plunge into it ; and on tbe 17th, every pulse was at fever heat.
The Senators of Ohio, as a last effort, passed the Corwin constitutional amendment. The eight who had the foresight to recognize that the 17th of April, 1861, was not a time to be striving to add security to Slavery, were Buck, Cox, Garfield, Glass, Monroe, Parish and Smith.
Governor Dennison's message on that momentous occasion concluded as follows : " But as the contest may grow to greater dimensions than now is anticipated, I deem it my duty to recommend to the General Assembly of this State, to make provisions proportionate to its means, to assist the National authorities in restoring the integrity of the Union, in all its amplitude, as the only means of preserving the rights of all the States, and in insuring the permanent peace and prosperity, of the whole country. I earnestly recommend, also, that an appropriation of not less than four hundred and fifty thousand dollars, be immediately made for the purchase of arms and equipments, for the use of the volunteer militia of the State. I need not remind you of the pressing exigency for the prompt organization and arming of the military force of the State."
The Senate, under the leadership of Mr. Garfield, matured and passed a bill, defining and providing Punishment, for the crime of treason against the State of Ohio. It declared any resident of the State who gave aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States, guilty of treason against the State, to be punished by imprisonment in the penitentiary at hard labor, for life. With the passage of these bills, all semblance of party opposition to the necessary war measures, disappeared from the proceedings of the Legislature.
Mr. Vallandingham visited the Capital and earnestly remonstrated with the Democrats, for giving their sanction to the war ; but the patriotic enthusiasm of the crisis, could not be controlled by party discipline. Under the leadership of Speaker Woods, a bill passed exempting the property of volunteers from execution for debt, during their service. Then, as within a few days it became evident that far more troops were pressing for acceptance than were needed to fill the President's call for thirteen regiments, the Legislature acceded to the sagacious suggestion of the Governor, that they should be retained for the service of the State. The bill authorized the acceptance of ten regiments, provided five hundred thousand dollars for their payment, and a million and a half more, to be used in case of invasion of the State, or the appearance of danger of invasion.
The first company from Muskingum county was raised by Captain John C. Hazlett, the brilliant young Prosecuting Attorney of the county. The President's call for 75,000 troops, to serve three months, had scarcely flashed over the wires, on the 17th day of April, 1861, when Captain Hazlett began to recruit his company, and on Wednesday, the 19th, having filled his quota, took his company to Columbus, and was assigned to the First Ohio Infantry, Alex. McD. McCook, Colonel commanding, and on Thursday, the loth, started for Washington, D. C. At Vienna, a station on the B. & 0. Railroad, in Virginia, they were fired on by a battery, in am-

bush, and four of their number were killed. After assisting in fortifying the Capital, they proceeded to Bull Run, and took part in that fearful -conflict, losing, however, only three killed and several wounded.
At the expiration of their three months, Company H was brought back to Columbus and mustered out,. most of the members re-enlisting in other organizations. Captain Hazlett immediately began recruiting another company, first known as A, then E Company, Second O.V. I., and it was while commanding this company at the battle of Stone River, December 31, 1862, that he received the wound from which he subsequently died.
In August, 1861, the regiment began to re-organize for three years service, the organization being completed in October, and was subsequently brigaded with the First Kentucky, or Louisville Legion, the Sixth Indiana, First Battalion of the Fifteenth U. S. Infantry and Battalions of the Sixteenth and Nineteenth Infantry, forming the Fourth Brigade of the Second Division, and was subsequently under General Grant, moving on Fort Henry. This regiment marched in company with General Buell's army, in pursuit of Braggs' Rebel army, then on its way to Louisville, the history of which is too well known, even if we intended to recite the important movements, to repeat. The army of Ohio, under General Buell, was placed under General William S. Rosecrans, who immediately organized it, and named it the Army of the Cumberland. General W. Sill was the Division in which the First was brigaded ; he was superseded by General R. W. Johnson, and the name of the Division changed to the Fourteenth Army Corps, Second Division, right wing, Army of the Cumberland. The principal battles in which they were engaged were Stone River, Tullahoma, and Liberty Gap.
The company and regimental organization of Ohio troops being given at the close of this chapter, that portion of the record is omitted here.
The Second 0. V. I. was in the battles of Murfreesboro, Shelbyville, Fayetteville, and Huntsville--formed a part of the Fourteenth Army Corps, under General Thomas, up to Atlanta, participating in all the marches and bat-. tles of that distinguished corps ; it was in the battle of Stone River that its Colonel was killed at the head of his regiment, and Major Maxwell and Captain Hazlett were wounded.
THE THIRD 0. V. I.—From Clarksburg, the Third Ohio advanced with the army, nothing of interest occurring until the 5th day of July, when. the regiment lay at Buckhannon, Virginia. A scouting party of fifty men, under Captain 0. A. Lawson, of Company A, was sent out by General Schleich to reconnoitre the road leading to the Rebel position, at Rich Mountain. Proceeding cautiously, the little band, upon approaching Middle Fork Bridge, discovered that it was occupied by the enemy. A gallant, but unsuccessful effort was made to dislodge the Rebels. In this first drawing of blood, the detachment lost one man killed, and five wounded. Gathering up the wounded, the party returned to camp. In the hurry the dead soldier was not found, but a few days later, upon the general advance of the army, the body of Sergeant John was found, and decently buried by his comrades ; he was the first man of the Third Ohio to die in battle. The regiment bore an honorable part in the battle of Rich Mountain—Elk Water Creek—resisting General R.. E. Lee's advance, as they appeared on the Huntsville road, and in all subsequent movements of that period, resulting in the repulse of the Rebel army, and its retirement to Mingo Flats. After a few days rest, the National forces resumed their movements. The first encounter of any importance, was at Perryville, Kentucky. In this ill-starred affair, the regiment bore a brave part ; it took position in an open field, at the Perryville road, protected only by a rail fence. The, rebel attack was fierce and deadly, but, notwithstanding their exposure, the Third stood firm, and returned volley for volley, until more than one-third of its number had fallen, dead or wounded. In the opening of the battle, Color Sergeant, William V. McCombrie stood a little in advance of the color guard, bearing the regimental standard proudly aloft. His exposed and marked position instantly brought upon him a fierce fire, from the enemy, and the gallant fellow was killed. Five others shared the same fate, until a sixth rushed forward and caught the colors ere they touched the ground. This last gallant hero was a beardless boy of seventeen, named David C. Walker, of Company C, who successfully carried the flag through the remainder of the action, and was rewarded for bis bravery by being made Color Sergeant on the battle field, by Colonel Beatty. Before the close of the battle, the regiment was ordered to withdraw to the second line, which command it executed in good order, though sorely pressed by the enemy. It remained in its last position until night put an end to the unequal conflict. While in line, General Rosecrans rode up to the regiment and thanked it in the name of the army for its gallant conduct. He said : "You stood in that withering fire like men of iron." Its loss in this battle was 212 officers and men killed and wounded. They were in the battle of Stone River, on the right of the center, and then on the extreme left, amid terrible fighting, and were subsequently taken prisoners by the rebel, General Forrest, and endured great hardships en route from Rome to Atlanta, via. Knoxville, to Richmond, Virginia ; when on Belle Isle they remained in the open air for ten days, when they were paroled ; but the officers, including the Chaplain and Surgeons, were incarcerated in Libby Prison, and underwent its loathsome horrors. An exchange being ordered, the Third Ohio was included in its provisions, and returned to Ohio, and until August f, 1863, was engaged in quelling local trouble. At that time it received orders to report to General Gordon Granger, at Nashville, Tennessee, for duty, and was soon again armed and equipped, and order-

ed to join its old brigade, under General John Beatty, at Stevenson, Alabama, and took part in the engagement at Anderson Gap, and a number of others, and when the term of service expired, June 23, 1864, reported at Camp Dennison, and was mustered out. After a brief visit to their homes, the great majority of the men and officers re-entered the service in other regiments "for the war" and performed gallant service up to the end of the strife, many of them laying down their lives a willing sacrifice for their country.
THE NINETEENTH O. V. I.—This regiment was among the organizations which sprang into existence at the sound of the guns at Fort Sumter. It was composed of recruits from seven counties : Company A, from Canton, Stark county ; B, from Youngstown, Mahoning county ; C, from Warren, Trumbull county ; D and I, from Ashtabula ; E and H, from New Lisbon, Columbiana county ; F, from Geauga county ; G and K, from Akron, Summit county ; for which record, see Volume II., page 134, Ohio in the War, 1868, by Whitelaw Reid, and note that no company is credited to Muskingum county, whereas, the mil itary records at Columbus, and numerous members of this regiment now living, certify that companies E and K were recruited and mustered at Camp Goddard, at Zanesville, Muskingum county. Lieutenant S. Lentz, of Company E, died of typhoid fever, February 9th, 1862 ; also, Sergeant August Johns, same disease, in Columbus. Over two hundred were in hospital, having measles and typhoid fever. Among the hard fought battles in which this regiment participated, was Stone River, which the Nineteenth Ohio, and Ninth Kentucky, were the first to cross. The Nineteenth entered the battle with four hundred and forty-nine men, and lost, in killed, wounded, and missing, two hundred and thirteen—nearly half. Returning to Chattanooga, it was almost immediately sent with Sherman toward Knoxville. This march was one among the severest during the war. The men were ragged and almost shoeless, and left their footprints in blood on the snowy ground. They re-enlisted, January 1, 1864, as veteran volunteers, and by the 16th reached Chattanooga, where the papers were prepared—the three years' regiment was mustered out, and the veteran Nineteenth mustered in. The regiment then returned to Ohio, reaching Cleveland, February 16th, 1864, and returned soon after, reaching Knoxville the 24th of March. May 6th, Sherman's entire command entered on the Atlanta campaign. The Nineteenth Regiment was sent to Parker's Gap, to hold that pass. On the loth it rejoined its brigade, at Cassville. Captain Charles Brewer, of Company E, was killed in the fight at New Hope Church ; Major Nash lost his left hand ; Captain Smith, of Company G, was severely wounded in the head, and forty-four men were killed and wounded. In the action at Lovejoy Station, Captain Agard, Company K, was severely wounded in the shoulder, and seventy-nine men killed and wounded. It captured the enemy's front line of works, and held them for three days, and until Sherman's army returned to Atlanta. It served faithfully in the many trying marches and sanguinary 'conflicts, and returned to Columbus, Ohio, November 22d, and was discharged at Camp Chase, November 25th, 1865, after nearly five years of service.
TWENTY-FOURTH O. V. I.—This Regiment organized at Camp Chase, near Columbus, in tbe latter part of June, 1861. Company B reported from Zanesville. The regiment took part in most of the skirmishes between Pittsburgh Landing and Corinth, and was one of the first regiments to enter the latter place, and was with the army in pursuit of the enemy in North Mississippi, and North Alabama, and in July, of the same year, camped at McMinnville, Tennessee. In December, 1862, General Rosecrans advanced from Nashville. The Twenty-fourth was reduced by sickness, and other losses, to thirteen officers and three hundred and forty men. With this strength it went into the battle of Stone River. The loss of the regiment, in this battle, was one-fourth of the entire strength with which it went into it. It participated, also, in the battles of Woodbury, Tennessee, Lookout Mountain, Chickamauga, Mission Ridge, Taylor's Ridge, etc. The colors of the regiment were presented to the State, to be placed in the archives for preservation, Colonel A. T. M. Cockerill turning them over with a few pertinent remarks. In response, Governor Brough said :
"Colonel, Officers, and Soldiers of the Twenty-fourth—I thank you, in behalf of the people of the State of Ohio, not only for the colors, but for having borne them so nobly and gallantly, as you have, throughout the three years' service. They come worn and tattered, but there is not a rent in them that is not honorable, and an emblem of your bravery and gallantry. No regiment that has gone from Ohio has endured hardships with greater cheerfulness, or more nobly discharged its duty. Yes, sir," turning to the Colonel, "no matter what the future may bring forth, no regiment can occupy a better position than the one you have had the honor to command. I shall place these banners in the archives of the State, as historic mementoes, worthy of any people. Again, soldiers, I thank you."
THIRTY-SECOND O. V. I.—This regiment was sent to the field from Camp Dennison. The date of the commissions of the field officers was July 26th, 1861. They reported to Brigadier General Reynolds, commanding the District of Cheat Mountain, headquarters at Huntsville, and were assigned to the command stationed at Cheat Mountain Summit, Colonel Kimball, Fourteenth Indiana Volunteers, commanding the post. The Thirty-second had been hurried to the field without military discipline—hardly organized. Upon the rugged heights of Cheat Mountain, amid the wild scenery of the Alleghanies, the regiment learned its first lesson in the art of war. They led the advance against Greenbrier, Virginia, through the mountains and pines, at midnight, and remained at Greenbrier during the fall of 1861, watching the movements of the enemy, then
286 - HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO.
commanded by the rebel General, Robert E. Lee. They were in General Milroy's command, taking the advance of the expedition which resulted in the capture of Camp Alleghany, Huntsville, Monterey and McDowell.
In Fremont's pursuit of Jackson, up the Shenandoah Valley, the Thirty-second bore its part, and participated in the battle of Cross Keys and Port Republic. In the defense of Harper s Ferry, the regiment lost some brave and gallant men. In August, 1863, it accompanied Stephens' expedition to Monroe, Louisiana, and McPherson's expedition to Brownsville, Mississippi, in October, of the same year, and was with Sherman in February, 1864, at Meridian, losing twenty-two men at Bohers' Creek, Mississippi, at which last affair Captain M. A. McAllister was severely wounded while gallantly leading the advance. When their term of service expired, more than three-fourths of them re-enlisted as veterans, joining the army at Cairo, Illinois, on the 21st of April, 1864, with its ranks largely augmented by recruits. The Thirty second was identified with the movements of the Seventeenth Army Corps, in Sherman's advance against Atlanta, and par- ticipated in the assault on Kenesaw Mountain, Nicojack, near the Chattahoochie River, also, in the battles before Atlanta, and lost more than half its number in killed and wounded. After the fall of Atlanta, the Thirty-second moved with the army in pursuit of Hood, after which, it rejoined General Sherman, and accompanied him on his "March to the Sea."
COMPANY A, FIFTEENTH O. V. I.—This Com- pany was recruited at New Concord, during July and August, 1861, for three months service. 'When this term expired, Captain R. W. P. Muse resigned, and Sergeant James C. Cummins was tendered the position, which he accepted, and, by order of the Governor of Ohio, reported to Colonel Moses R. Dickey, who had been authorized to organize an infantry regiment at Mansfield, Richland county, Ohio. Captain Cummins, and his one hundred men, arrived at Camp Bartley on the evening of September 6th, and the company was mustered into the United States service "for three years, or during the war," three days later. The company were mostly young men—aye, in their "teens"—from the best families of eastern Muskingum and the western part of Guernsey counties ; ad not a few had left college, store, and shop--thirsting for military glory--not anticipating the hardships and dangers incident to a three years' campaign of war.
Early in October, 1861, they left for Camp Dennison, near Cincinnati, where they received their arms and equipments, and proceeded to the rendezvous for the Army of the Ohio, at Mumfordsville, Kentucky. Here, the Fifteenth was brigaded with the Forty-ninth Ohio, and Thirty-second and Thirty-ninth Indiana Volunteers, an organization that remained unbroken, to the close of the war, and was known as "Willich's Brigade.." Its gallant commander, Brig- adier General August Willich, was one of the German exiles of 1847, who entered the War of the Rebellion early in the struggle, as Colonel of the Thirty-second Indiana. This regiment participated in the first advance of the Army of the Ohio--breaking camp, February 14th, 1862, to move South. At the reorganization of the Western Army, the brigade was attached to the Army of the Cumberland, and took part in all of its campaigns. In the fall of 1863, when the call for veteran volunteers was issued, nearly every member of Company A re-enlisted. They were then given a furlough of thirty days, and arrived home February 11th, 1864. On the 15th of March, following, the company returned to Columbus, Ohio, and with the regiment filled up by recruits, embarked for , Tennessee, about the close of that month. The Army of the Cumberland was being reorganized for the campaign into the heart of the Confederacy, under General Sherman. The company participated in that wonderful march down to Atlanta, and back to Nashville, and thence, to the mountains of East Tennessee, and remained there until the spring of 1865. In June, following, General Wood's Division, to which the Fifteenth was attached, was ordered to Texas, and, passing down the Cumberland, Tennessee, and Mississippi rivers, crossed the Gulf of Mexico, and arrived at their destination about the middle of July. During the summer, the regiment was quartered at San Antonio, doing.guard duty, where they received their order to be mustered out, and reached Columbus, Ohio, December 25th, 1865—being mustered out the next day—having served four years and five months. Of the one hundred men mustered at Mansfield, in 1861, but thirty- five remained at the close of the war, in 1865. Eight were killed on the field of battle, or died of wounds received there, twelve died from dis- ease, in hospitals, and forty-five were discharged for disability. The company had added fifty- seven recruits during its service.
The company participated in the battles of Shiloh, Tennessee ; siege of Corinth, Mississippi; Stone River, Murfreesboro, Tennessee ; Middleton, Tennessee ; Liberty Gap, Tennessee ; Chickamauga, Tennessee ; Mission Ridge, Chattanooga, Tennessee ; Rocky Face, Resaca, Pickett's Mills, Pine Top, Kenesaw Mountain, Chattahoochie River, Peach Tree Creek, siege of Atlanta, Jonesboro, and Lovejoy's Station, Georgia ; Franklin, Nashville, and Columbia, Tennessee.
SIXTEENTH O. V. I.—This regiment was organized under Colonel John E. De Courcey, at Camp Tiffin, near Wooster, Ohio, on the 2cf day of October, 1861, and mustered in the same day ; reached Camp Dennison November 28th, and, on the i9th of December, was ordered to Lex- ington, Kentucky, and, the following January, reported to General S. P. Carter, at Somerset, Kentucky. At this point, the regiment was engaged in repairing and building military roads, to facilitate the transportation of supplies to General Thomas' forces, at Mills Springs, where a battle was fought by General Thomas, on the
HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 287
19th of January ; the regiment being ordered up during the fight, though it was unable to reach the ground, on account of a flood in Fishing Creek.
On August 6th, the Sixteenth was ordered to relieve the Fourteenth Kentucky, at Tazewell. About ten A. Ni., of that day, two companies (B and E) of the regiment were sent forward as advance pickets. Companies F and D were ordered to the right of the Main Hill road, on the same duty. Companies C and G were held in reserve. At eleven A. M., a heavy skirmishing commenced at the front, and continued until the enemy appeared on the front and right, in force. Companies D and F were compelled to fall back. Companies B and E were cut off from the main force by a rebel brigade, and most of them captured. Companies C and G were ordered up, as a support, but were also overwhelmed, and compelled to fall back to a position on the left of the road. They were now re-enforced by stragglers from other companies, and held the enemy in check for two hours, when the ammunition was exhausted. They fell back to the main line, where the National forces were massed. Toward night, the National army retreated into the intrenchments, the enemy following them to within three miles of the Gap.
September 8th, the Sixteenth Ohio and its brigade were ordered to Manchester, Ky., for supplies. On the i9th, this force was joined by the remainder of the National troops from the Gap. The supplies having been almost completely exhausted, General Morgan ordered a retreat toward the Ohio River. This retreat was opposed by the enemy, who harassed the National forces by frequent attacks, and by placing obstructions in the roads, up to Grayson, Kentucky, within twenty-five miles of the Ohio river. The sufferings of the men on this march were very severe, having nothing to eat for several days, excepting ears of corn, gathered from the fields as they passed. To quench their thirst, the men were compelled to drink water collected in stagnant pools. On the third of October, the command arrived at Greenupsburg, Kentucky, on the Ohio river, utterly worn out, ragged, shoeless, and covered with the accumulated dust of sixteen day's march. Resting until the 21st Of- October, at Portland, Ohio, the regiment moved to Charleston, Virginia, on the Kanawha river. On the toth of November, it marched under orders, to Point Pleasant, Virginia, and there .embarked on steamers, for Memphis, Tennessee, arriving on the 27th, of the same month. December loth, it moved with Sherman's command on transports, to the rear of Vicksburg, Mississippi, and participated, on the 29th, in the disastrous assault on Chickesaw Bayou. In this affair, the Sixteenth suffered terribly, losing three hundred and eleven officers and men killed, wounded, and taken prisoners. After the assault, the command of the regiment devolved on Captain E. W. Botsford.
On April 6th, 1863, the regiment joined General Grant's expedition to the rear of Vicksburg.
It was engaged at Thompson's Hill, on the 1st of May, and lost nine men, killed and wounded. It was engaged at Champion Hills, on Boher's Creek, on the 16th of May, and on the 17th, at Black River Bridge. May 19th, it took a prominent part in the disastrous assault on the Rebel works in the rear of Vicksburg. In these several engagements, the regiment lost seventy in killed and wounded. It remained in the rear of Vicksburg until its fall, July 4th, 1863, and July 6th, was ordered to Jackson, Mississippi, where it participated in the siege, and capture, of that place. Numerous other engagements of varying success, all attended with hardship, and frequently with loss, were participated in by the Sixteenth. They reached Columbus, 0., October 14th, and were paid and discharged from the service, the last day of that month, 1863.
The total number of deaths from all causes, in the regiment, was two hundred and fifty one. On surgeon's certificate of disability, one hundred and eighty-six were discharged, and thirty- eight were transferred to the Veteran Reserve corps, fifteen of whom were directly from the regiment. Before, leaving Morganza, the recruits, ninety in number, were transferred to the One Hundred and Fourteenth Ohio, to serve out the expiration of its term of enlistment. The number of officers and men mustered out at the expiration of its term of service, was four hundred and seventy-seven, all that was left of one thousand one hundred and ninety--one, the total of the original organization and recruits.
SIXTY-SECOND 0. V. I.—This regiment, organized at Camp Goddard, near Zanesville, in November, 1861. On the 17th of January, 1862, the Governor ordered it to report to General Rosecrans, then commanding in Western Virginia. On the 3oth of the following June, it was sent on board transports, and sailed for Fortress Monroe, thence to Harrison's Landing, and to the front on picket duty. On August 16th, it moved in the famous retreat down the Peninsula to Yorktown, and Fortress Monroe, and from thence to Suffolk, and subsequently made a reconnaissance to Black Water ; but we cannot attempt to recite all its movements, only naming a few of the most prominent. In the assault on Fort Wagner, it lost 150 men, killed and wounded ; it took part in the siege of Charleston, which lasted from the loth of July, to the 31st of October. The regiment re-enlisted in January, 1864, as veterans, and was allowed the usual 30 days' furlough. March 3d, it rendezvoused at Washington City and was immediately sent to the front, near Petersburg, Virginia, and from this time on, the Sixty-second participated in the contest that raged about the lines of the rebel capital.
About the first of September, 1865, the Sixty- second was consolidated with the Sixty-seventh Ohio, and thereafter lost its identity, the number of the Sixty-seventh being retained.
SIXTY-SEVENTH 0. V. I.—This regiment consolidated with the Forty-fifth, both being but part' ly organized previously. It left Columbus, Janu-
288 - HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO
ary 19th, 1862, for Western Virginia, under General Lander, to reinforce Tyler's brigade, in do- ink which it passed over an open field, three-quarters of a mile wide, exposed to the enemy's fire. They executed the movement on the double quick, and came into action in splendid order. The enthusiasm, inspired by such patriotic zeal, cannot be described, and only the soldier may feel it. They counted the hardships endured marching up and down the valley, over the mountains and back again from the Potomac to Harrisonburg, from Front Royal to Fredericks- burg, thence to Manassas, to Port Republic, Alexandria, etc., as nothing, if crowned with the reward of subduing the enemies of the country. The regiment, after the expiration of this term of service, re-enlisted, and, after a short furlough, returned to the field, reaching Ber- muda Hundred, Virginia, under General Butler, May 6th, 1864. On the 29th, of the same month, a portion of our lines having fallen into the hands of the rebels, the Sixty-seventh, with other regiments, received orders to re-cap- ture them, which they did by a charge ; the regiment lost sixty-nine officers and men, killed and wounded. The rebel General, W. H. S. Walker, was wounded and captured, his sword passing into the hands of our Colonel Voris, as a trophy. On the 16th of August, four com- panies of the Sixty-seventh charged the rifle pits of the enemy at Deep River, and at the first volley, lost one-third of their men, but before the rebels could reload, the rifle, pits were in our possession. During October, following, the regiment was in four engagements, and lost over one hundred men. During the spring, summer and fall of 1864, the Sixty-seventh confronted the enemy, at all times within range of their guns, and it is creditably reported, that during the year it was under tire two hundred times.
SEVENTY-EIGHTH O. V. I.—This regiment was raised under special authority from Gover: nor Dennison, issued to M. D. Leggett, of Zanesville. The first man was enlisted October 30, 1861, and the organization completed Janu- ary II, 1862 ; they embarked immediately for Fort Donelson. About the loth of March, it moved with the National forces to Crump's Landing; thence to Adamsville, to guard an exposed flank of the army, at Pittsburgh Landing, and, with its brigade, marched to the battle-field, reaching Pittsbugh Landing at 8 P. M., in company with General Lew Wallace's division. Besides this fight, it shared in the movement on Corinth, on the evacuation of which the regiment march- ed with General Wallace's division to Bethel ; thence to Jackson, Tennessee ; on the 17th, 18th and 19fh of May, the investment of Vicksburg was completed. On the 22nd of the same month, the Seventy-eighth participated in the general charge on the enemy's works, with slight loss. About the 25th of May, it was joined to' a force sent up Yazoo River, under General Frank P. Blair, to look after a rebel force reported to be moving to the relief of Vicksburg, under the rebel General, Joseph E. Johnston ; but he having changed his line of march to a point further south, toward Jackson, the command returned to Vicksburg, and the Seventy-eighth resumed its position before the city, and, June 22d, was sent to prevent the rebels under Johnston from cross- ing the Black River, at Bovina, and remained at that place until after the surrender of Vicksburg. July 2 1st, it participated in the attack on, and capture of' Bald Knob, a position commanding the city of Atlanta ; which city was captured by the National forces, after shelling it ; in this ac tion, the Seventy-eighth suffered severely. The position was considered so important by the rebel commander, that, in his anxiety to re-take it, he, the next day, threw his whole army on the left flank of the National lines, and a terrible battle ensued, costing us the life of the brave McPherson. The Seventy-eighth lost 203, offi- cers and men, killed and wounded.
The regiment, with the Sixty-eighth Ohio, held a line near Bald Knob: the rebels made such a determined attack, that the battle became a desperate hand -to hand conflict, each side showing great valor. Of thirteen flag and color bearers, qf the' Seventy-eighth Ohio, all were killed or wounded. A rebel was • about to cap- ture the regimental flag, when Captain John Orr, of Company II, seized a short sword from the ground, and almost completely decapitated him. For this heroic act, the .Captain received a gold medal from the Board of Honor, of the army of the Tennessee. The Seventy-eighth participated in the subsequent movements of the army of the Tennessee, till the fall of Atlanta. After the taking of Savannah, and the march through the Carolinas, up to the surrender of Johnston's rebel army, the regiment accom- panied the National forces through Richmond, Virginia, to Washington City, and participated in the grand review.
THE NINETY-SEVENTH O. V. I.—This regiment was recruited in the counties of Muskingum, Morgan, Guernsey, and Coshocton, during the months of July and August, 1862. It was mustered into service at Camp Zanesville, on the 1st and 2d of September, by Captain C. C. Goddard, of the Seventeenth Infantry, U. S. A., and on the 7th of that month, received marching orders, obeying which, it reached Covington Heights, Kentucky, on the 8th, where it was assigned to the command of General Lewis Wallace, in opposing the supposed advance of General Kirby Smith's forces, on Cincinnati. The regimental staff was composed of the following officers : Colonel, John Q., Lane ; Lieutenant Colonel, Milton Barnes ; Major, James W. Moore ; Second Major, George S. Davis ; Surgeon, Thomas W. Gordon ; Assistant Surgeons, J. T. Edwards, T. A. Stewart ; Chaplain, William McFarland.
This regiment, on the 20th of September, 1862, proceeded from Covington to Louisville, Kentucky, and on the first of October, joined in the pursuit of the rebel, General Bragg, through Kentucky and Tennessee. They were under fire first at Perryville, but did not engage in
HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 289
the battle ; they were in several skirmishes on the march from Perryville to Nashville, in which they acquitted themselves like soldiers. They subsequently formed a part of General Crittenden's noble corps, in the advance on Murfreesboro, Tennessee, December, 1862, where they had four killed and fifteen wounded. They remained at Murfreesboro until June, 1863, doing garrison and scouting duty. June 24th, it joined the advance on Tullahoma, Tennessee, via Manchester, and finding that the enemy had abandoned that place, proceeded to Pelham, and on arriving within two miles of the town, had a lively skirmish with the enemy's cavalry, in which the Ninety-seventh lost one man. They remained at Pelham until the i6th of August, 1863, when they crossed a range of the Cumberland mountains, and entered Chattanooga, Tennessee, September the 9th, following, and to this regiment is due the honor of raising the American flag (their regimental colors) over this rebel stronghold.. On the 23d of November, 1873, the regiment was ordered in front, of Mission Ridge, and hotly engaged the enemy. On the 25th of that month, they lost twenty privates killed, nine commissioned officers, and one hundred and fifteen privates wounded. November 28th, the regiment was with the Fourth Army Corps, on the march to Knoxville, Tennessee, to the relief of General Burnside, where they arrived on the 6th of December, and remained until the 13, and were ordered to Blaine's Cross Roads, where they remained until January 14, 1864, and were ordered to Drawbridge, arriving there on the 17th ; they returned to Knoxville, and left that place on the 23d of that month, for Louden, Tennessee, where they remained until March 2, 1864, and proceeded to Charleston, Tennessee, and soon after joined General Sherman's army, near Cleveland, Tennessee, (this army was composed of the "Army of the Cumberland," Tennessee, and Ohio troops) early in May, 1864, and was engaged in all of the memorable battles of that campaign, culminating in the capture of Atlanta, Georgia, in which this regiment suffered heavy losses in killed and wounded. After taking Atlanta ,General Sherman marched the larger part of his army to the Sea, but left the Fourth Corps, and small detachments, among which was the Ninety-seventh, to confront the entire rebel Army, then commanded by General Hood. The Union forces were forced back from the Tennessee River to Nashville, fighting en route almost night and day. The most fearful engagement the regiment ever had, was at Franklin, Tennessee, on the 30th of November, 1864, where it lost many in killed and wounded, although the enemy was punished severely. Our forces arrived at Nashville, December 1, 1864, and remained until December 14th or 15th, when they attacked the enemy, and made a complete rout of them ; after which the regiment went into camp near Huntsville, and remained until early the following spring, when it was transported to Knoxville, Tennessee, and commenced the march toward Richmond, and had arrived near Greenville, Tennessee; when General Lee surrendered, and its march was stopped. The regiment was then taken to Nashville, by rail, and mustered out of service, about the middle of June, 1865.

I certify that the foregoing account is substantially correct, although many important details might be added if the exact dates could be given, but no record of these is now to be had.
[Signed,] J. T. GORSUCH.
Mr. Gorsuch was promoted from Second Lieutenant to First, March 11th, 1863, and promoted to Captain, May 6th, 1863, and was mustered out with his regiment. He, like many others of the Ninety-seventh, wears his honors modestly, yet cherishes the institutions of our country, and the sovereign right of the American citizen to enjoy life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, on any, and every part of American soil, as the heritage received from our patriot fathers, and which he fought to perpetuate. Such men have no compromise to make, with traitors, but will again •bear arms in defence of our glorious Union, if necessity demands it. And to such men the Nation owes an actual debt of gratitude.
NINTH 0. V. C.—On the 3d of October, 1862, Governor Tod received instructions from the President to raise three regiments of cavalry, to be known as the Eighth, Ninth and Tenth O. V. C. A short time previous to this, Captain W. D. Hamilton, of the Thirty-second O. V. I., then stationed at Winchester, Va., had been ordered from the field to recruit another company of that regiment ; he had fifty men for that purpose, when the regiment, with a number of others, was captured by "Stonewall" Jackson, September i5th, 1862. Captain Hamilton reported for instructions to the Governor, who assigned him the duty of organizing a cavalry command, to be known as the Ninth O. V. C. The men recruited for the captured regiment, formed the nucleus, and the remainder was raised in the eastern portion of the State. They rendezvoused at Zanesville. On the first of December, three companies were transferred to complete the Tenth O. V. C., then organizing at Cleveland. The four remaining companies were designated the First Battalion of the Ninth O. V. C.,. and were ordered to Camp Dennison, and afterwards, (April 23d,) to report for field duty, at Lexington, Kentucky. It was then ordered to Clay county, to drive out a rebel force and protect the country. The battalion, consisting of 300 effective men, moved forward, driving the enemy from the mountainous regions, and established its camp at Manchester. It remained in this region, having frequent skirmishes with the enemy, until the. 15th of June, when an expedition was planned to penetrate into East Tennessee, to as certain the true condition of the inhabitants, and to destroy some extensive factories belonging to Knoxville. The whole force consisted of about 2,000 mounted men, in which were 200 of the Battalion. On the night of the 16th of June,
290 - HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO.
this force crossed the Cumberland river at Williamsburg, and moved toward Big Creek Gap, a rebel stronghold, commanding one of the entrances into East Tennessee, between Cumberland Gap and Knoxville. The main road to this point crossed a spur of the Cumberland Mountains, at Pine Mountain Gap, a strong pass, which was held by the enemy. By a strategic movement, the .rebels were surprised and nearly all captured, without firing a gun. Next morning the command moved toward Big Creek Gap, and when within about twelve miles, the Battalion being in advance, the enemy was encountered, and skirmishing kept up until they were driven within their works at the Gap. The enemy evacuated, and without opposition, the command accomplished its designs.
On the night of the 13th of April, an Alabama regiment surrounded a barn in which the men were sleeping, shot two of the sentinels, and, after a short struggle, succeeded in capturing Captain Hetzler, Second Lieutenant Knapp, and thirty-nine men. The remainder of the company escaped and reported at head-quarters, near the shoals, where they arrived the next evening. The remaining three companies were pushed forward with all speed, but failed to rescue the prisoners. The non-commissioned officers and men were sent to Andersonville prison. Eight months after the capture, a report from Orderly Sergeant Kennedy, showed 'that twenty-five of the number had died ; Captain Hetzler and Lieutenant Knapp were sent to Columbia, South Carolina. Lieutenant Knapp, after two unsuccessful efforts to escape, in which he was re-taken by the aid of blood-hounds, finally succeeded in reaching Knoxville, Tennessee, after traveling three weeks, principally at night, securing food and assistance from negroes. At one time he heard the hounds on his trail, and again would have been captured, but for the generous assistance of a negro, who, after giving him something to eat, said : "Now, bress de Lord, Massa Yank, you jist trust me, and we'll fool dem dogs. You trot along fust, den I'll come too, steppin in yo tracks. Go 'bout half a mile, den you come to some watah ; you take right thru dat, den I'll on 'tother way. See, dem dogs is used ter huntin' niggers, day knows de smell, an likes ter follow de black man's foot." "But," said the Lieutenant, surprised at this singular offer, "the dogs will catch you, and probably tear you in pieces." Massa," said he, "let dis nigger 'lone fur dat, I'se fooled dem dogs afore, fur de Yanks ; and bress de Lord, I'll try it agin. Now trot along Massa, fur I hear dem dogs a cummin' !" Shortly after crossing the pond, the Lieutenant heard the hounds howling in the direction taken by the negro, and he was no longer disturbed by them. He afterward joined the regiment at Savannah, Georgia, in January, 1865. Capt. Hetzler remained a prisoner until near the close of the war, when he was exchanged.
When it became known that the rebels received large supplies over the Atlanta & West
Point Railroad, it was desirable to destroy it. Of the 2500 men chosen to do this, 700 were from the Ninth Cavalry. The command started as secretly as possible, desiring to strike the road anywhere between the extreme point guarded by General Johnston's troops, and Montgomery, Alabama.
It left Decatur on the loth of July. For three days the command moved unmolested, except by bushwhackers. In the evening of the third day, the command reached the Coosa River, and found a force of the enemy preparing to dispute its passage. A contest ensued, in which the enemy suffered severely. On the evening of July 17th, the command reached the village of Sochapolka, on the railroad, thirty miles east of Montgomery, and about two hundred-miles south of Decatur. It was almost exhausted, yet went immediately to work to destroy the road. For a few days the command was engaged in this work, and was attacked several times, in the rear and front, by the enemy. The expedition traveled, on an average, twenty hou,rs per day, and effectually destroyed twenty-five miles of an important railroad, one hundred miles beyond the rebel lines, and sustained comparatively small loss. The Ninth Cavalry lost twenty-six men, mostly captured while foraging. Having accomplished its purpose, it started in a northeasterly direction, and reached General Sherman's lines, near Marietta, on July 22d.
Wonderful presence of mind and courage : Four hundred and fifty men of the regiment, who had been dismounted while with. Colonel Garrard, were ordered to Nashville, to procure horses. On the night of the 2d of September, while the train containing the men was passing Big Shanty, Georgia, it was thrown from the track, and six cars were demolished. The enemy, concealed beside the track, opened fire on the wreck. The fire was returned, and the cowards fled. One man was killed, and three wounded by the accident, and two killed and five wounded by the enemy's fire. Failing to procure horses at Nashville, the regiment proceeded to Louisville, where it obtained them, and returned to Nashville, en route for the front.
The regiment proceeded to Chattanooga, en route for Atlanta, and became identified with the cavalry division of General Sherman's army to the coast—sharing its Victories and hardships. The services of the cavalry being no longer necessary, the Ninth was ordered home, and on the 2d of August, 1865, turned over its colors and property to the State, and was mustered out.
TENTH 0. V. C.—This regiment was authorized and commissioned by Governor Tod ; organized at Camp Taylor, in October,,1862, and ordered to the front at Murfreesboro. Subsequently, at the battle of Chickamauga, one company, commanded by Lieutenant (afterwards Captain) Haynie, acted as escort to General Granger, the main portion of the regiment being ordered to guard communications in the rear. Atter the battle, the Tenth was ordered up the Sequatchie Valley, to guard the country against guerillas, under.
HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 291
Champ Ferguson, a noted rebel bandit of that locality. While occupying this valley, performing the duties allotted to it, a portion of the regiment was detailed to accompany a detachment of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania Cavalry, on a scout into East Tennessee, under command of Captain Palmer, of the last named regiment. During this time(about three months), they were almost daily engaged with the enemy attached to the rebel Gen. Longstreet's command. At one time they engaged and defeated a force of three hundred Indians, and two hundred North Carolinians, led by Governor Vance, of North Carolina, whom they captured, together with one hundred men, and his wagon train, ere they could ascend the Mountain, at the base of which they were attacked. This scout effectually rid that part of the State from banditti, of every kind.
The great "March to the Sea" was inaugurated —and proved a serious work for the cavalry, as well as other forces. The Tenth was more frequently engaged than the other regiments, be- cause it had a fashion of using the sword oftener than the gun.
"They flee before our fierce attack !
They fall ! They spread in broken surges.
Now, comrades, bear our wounded back,
And leave the foeman to his dirges."
These lines are an epitome of their career, now familiar as household words at many a fireside.
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-SECOND O. V. I. —This regiment was recruited in the counties of Muskinkum, Morgan, Coshocton and Guernsey. Companies A, B, D, E, and H, were Mustered into the United States service at Camp Zanesville, on the 3oth of September, 1862 ; Company C, the 3d ; G, 5th ; and F, the 6th of October ; I and K, and the Field and Staff, October the 8th. The regiment left Zanesville on the steamers Powell and Patton, for Parkersburg, Virginia, and became a part of the Second Brigade, Milroy's Division, which was ordered on an expedition up the valley of the South Branch of the Potomac, and, in a blinding snow storm, the regiment began its first march. June 13th, 1863, Companies A and F met the advance of J. E. B. Stewart's raid, on the Strasburg road, and, after a brisk skirmish, retired to Winchester. The next day, the entire regiment was engraged, and at night, With other troops, forced a way through the rebel lines, and Marched to Harper's Ferry. The reg- iment lost several officers and men captured, some of whoth were not exchanged until April, 1865.
It-spent one night on Bolivar Heights, and upon the evacuation of Maryland Heights, it accompanied the heavy guns and public stores to Georgetown, D. C. It moved through Washington City, and thence, by rail, to Frederick, where it was assigned to the Second Brigade, Third Division, Third Army Corps. The brigade then marched against Lee, crossed the Potomac, passed Loudon Heights by the road around their . northern base, marched southward along the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge, passed through Manassas Gap, and, on the afternoon of July 23d, marched in line of battle, as Ewell fell back from Wapping. Heights. The next day it returned, passing through the Gap, and through Warrenton, and camped near the Rappahannock, about the first of August. It guarded the road leading up the south bank of the Rapidan until noon, when it marched to the front in the battle of the Wilderness. The regiment maintained itself well throughout the fight. Their loss the first day was one hundred and twenty men. This regiment would have been recognized as Ohio troops, by any rebel commander, from their characteristic energy and determination, in whatever position.
FIFTH INDEPENDENT BATTALION OF CAVALRY. —No record was found concerning these troops in the Adjutant General's office, at Columbus, or Washington, and yet, "Ohio In the War," p. 931, recites : "After the capture of Morgan, and his band (of guerillas), Captain Ijams was ordered to report at Camp Chase, and proceed to recruit his organization to a force of four companies, which, being accomplished in a few weeks, was classed as the Fifth Independent Battalion of Ohio Volunteer Cavalry, and Captain Ijams was promoted to Major.
For the record of Company D, of this battalion, we are indebted to Howard Aston, our County Clerk, who was First Corporal of this company, and subsequently First Lieutenant of Company F, Thirteenth O. V. C. "This (Fifth Battalion) was a six-months' organization, recruited by Second Lieutenant Thomas E. Roberts,of Falls township. After the organization, in July, 1863, at Camp Tod, near Columbus, Ohio, it was sent to Maysville, Kentucky, and thence to Flemingsburg, Kentucky, where the battalion was separated— Companies A and D remaining in camp, and Companies B and C going to Hillsboro, Kentucky, whence scouting parties were sent out, penetrating the mountains between Kentucky, Tennessee, and West Virginia, and were usually victorious. The battalion headquarters remained at Flemingsburg during their term of enlistment." [Although the Fifth Independent Battalion did not participate in any regular battle, it was only because there was no organized force pitted against it. Owing to the exigencies of the service, it was kept in the field some time beyond its term of enlistment, and was finally mustered out of the service, at Columbus, in March, 1864. —Ohio In the War, p. 931.]
THIRTEENTH O. V. C.—When the order was issued from Washington, D. C., to recruit veterans, Second Lieutenant, Thomas E. Roberts, opened a recruiting office at the headquarters of the Fifth Independent Battalion, O. V. C. The first recruit was Howard Aston, then Jesse Waters, December 27th, 1863, followed by thirty-one others. These formed the nucleus of Company F, of the Thirteenth, which was formed by the consolidation of the Fourth and Fifth Independent Battalions. It was increased by recruits, and mustered into the service, May 4th, 1864, for three years, and immediately joined the Ninth Army

Corps, composing a part of the Army of the Potomac, and participated in all the battles of that army, from Hanover Court House to Stony Creek, inclusive, until December ist, 1864, when it was sent to Dismounted Camp," near City Point, Virginia. This change was appreciated by the regiment, as for five months and a half they had been exposed to shot and shell, and the quiet of a camp beyond these was a relief. December loth, they exchanged their infantry accouterments for cavalry equipments, and, until the first of January, 1865, remained in camp, drilling and doing light picket duty, in the rear of the army lines, on the lookout for Wade Hampton's cavalry. Then they were assigned to the Third Brigade, Second Division, and were commanded by General Gregg, until after the three days' battle of Hatcher's Run, February 5th, 6th, and 7th, 1865. General Gregg being wounded, General George Crook took command of the division, and the Thirteenth remained under his command until mustered out.
April 6th, 1865, at the battle of Sailor Creek, they charged on a heavy guard of rebel infantry, having charge of a train of wagons, destroyed about forty wagons, captured two hundred and eighty prisoners, one hundred and forty mules, and about twenty-five horses, sustaining the loss of Captain Strahl and fifteen men, who were taken prisoners. On its return from the charge, it took part, with other regiments of the Third Brigade, in a mounted charge, in which were captur- ed General M. D. Corse and his brigade of rebel troops.
On the 7th of April, the Thirteenth was fighting Lee's rear guard, pushing them back during the whole forenoon. About noon, they made a dash into Farmville, Virginia, and captured three hundred prisoners. In the afternoon, the regiment pushed across to Prospect Station, on the Virginia and East Tennessee Railroad, and, in connection with the Sixth 0. V. C., captured a train of railroad cars, loaded with forage and provisions for Lee's army. April 8th, in the evening, the Thirteenth was on picket, to the left of Appomattox Court House. All was quiet during the night, but about daylight the next morning, Lee's forces made a charge on our lines, attempting to break through. The regiment fought hard for two hours, but had to retire, which they did, fighting as they went, until they reached a wood, where they checked the rebel advance. Then' General Sheridan ordered a grand charge by the division, led by Generals Crook, Merrit, and Ouster, in which the Thirteenth had the honor to lead. ;This was a fearful contest, but victorious. After the surrender of General R. E. Lee and his army, to General U. S. Grant, the Thirteenth 0. V. C. Was sent with their division to join General Sherman, in North Carolina, but before reaching him, the news came of the surrender of Johnston's army, and the regiment was ordered back to Petersburg, Virginia, and, after a review by General Sheridan, the division separated, and the Thirteenth was sent to Amelia Court House, for provost duty. Its headquarters remained there; though the regiment divided—some companies doing duty in adjoining counties. The loss of the Thirteenth, from June 2d, 1864, until April 9th, 1865, (the last battle), was sixty-eight killed, three hundred and eighty-three wounded, and ninety-one captured.
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-NINTH 0. V. I. (Otherwise denominated National Guards.)— The Eleventh Ohio and one company of the Seventy-third O.N.G. formed the One Hundred and Fifty-ninth 0. V. I. The consolidation and organization were completed on the morning of the 11th of May, 1864, and it immediately left for Harper's Ferry, where it was ordered to report to General Lew Wallace, who assigned it to Brigadier General Kelley's command, camped near Camp Bradford, in the northern defences of Baltimore. Four companies were detailed on guard duty at Camp Bradford, and remained there one hundred days, their term of service. One company did provost guard duty in the city, another was detailed at Patterson Park Hospital, and the remaining companies were detailed to guard the bridges on the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad. During the rebel invasion, one hundred men of the regiment were mounted, and, at Monocacy, they conducted themselves so gallantly that they won the official compliments of the General commanding. August the 13th, they were relieved from duty and returned to Zanesville, where they were mustered out, August 24th, 1864.
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTIETH 0. V. I.—These were one hundred-day troops, also ; mustered, May 12th, 1864. Their first duty was guarding a supply train to Martinsburg—intended for General Siegel's army, then operating in that quarter of Virginia. On its return, it was placed in the First Brigade, First Division, of General Hunter's army, and, May 25th, moved with it to Woodstock, West Virginia ; thence, toward the front, but was detached and sent back to Martinsburg, in charge of a supply train. Reaching the vicinity of Middletown, it discovered that Mosby's guerillas had made a dash on another train, in the rear. Colonel Reasoner, with one hundred and sixty men, marched to the aid of the train, and after a sharp fight with the enemy, succeeded in saving a large amount of Government property. The conduct of the troops under fire, was cool, daring, and determined. A number were wounded, but none killed. The regiment was kept almost continually marching and countermarching through the Shenandoah Valley, very often in charge of large wagon-trains, on which Mosby's and other rebel bands of guerillas would make dashes, involving much skirmishing and danger, through all of which the regiment conducted itself handsomely. During most of the time, it was without tents or camp equipage.
ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-EIGHTH 0. V. I. —This regiment was organized at Camp Chase, September 29th, 1864, and at once dispatched by rail and river to Nashville, Tennesse, with orders to report to Major General George H.
HISTORY OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY, OHIO - 293
Thomas, for duty. The regiment remained there, doing guard duty, some two weeks, when it was sent to Tullahoma, Tennessee, where it formed a part of the post command. Nothing of interest occurred here, excepting that Lieu- tenant C. A. Poland, of Company B, while out scouting near Manchester, Tennessee, succeed- ed in capturing a noted guerilla, named John Seal. This cold-blooded murderer was executed without the formalities of a court martial.
The Adjutant General's office at Columbus, Ohio, furnishes the record, that Companies A and F "of this regiment from Muskingum coun- ty, were enrolled, for the most part, at Zanesville, during August and September; 1864 ;. term of enlistment, one year." The post of Tullahoma was evacuated in the winter of 1864, and the One Hundred and Seventy-eighth Ohio was sent to Murfreesboro. Lieutenant Colonel A. C. Johnson was appointed Chief of Artillery, and superintended the moving of all the artillery and ordnance from Tullahoma to Murfreesboro, by. rail, and, during the siege of Murfreesboro by General Hood's rebel forces, which lasted for eighteen days, he acted as Chief of Artillery on , General Rousseau's staff. Frequent sorties were made, in force, from the fort, for foraging purposes, under command of General Milroy, with severe fighting. The One Hundred and Seventy-eighth was closely engaged, under Colonel Stafford. In one of these engagements, the reg- iment lost both of its color-bearers. In the affair at: Wilkerson's Pike, the force under General Milroy, which included this regiment, captured two fine twelve-pounder Napoleons, and two hundred prisoners.
After the defeat of General Hood's rebel army, at Nashville, the One Hundred and Seventy-eighth was brigaded in the First Division, Third. Brigade, Twenty-third Army Corps, and ordered to North Carolina, and landed at Moorehead City, of that State, with the Twenty-third Army Corps, and, a few days thereafter, participated in a smart skirmish with the enemy, under General Johnston, at Wise's Fork. This was the last affair in which the regiment was engaged.
General Sherman's army was met and joined by the Twenty-third Army Corps, at Goldsboro, North Carolina, and, together, an advance was made to Raleigh. After Johnston's rebel army surrendered, the One Hundred and Seventy-eighth was ordered to Charlotte, North Carolina, where it performed garrison duty until mustered out of the service, June 29th, 1865. It was paid and discharged at Camp Chase, July 10, 1865.
ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-FIFTH O. V. I.- This regiment was one of a series recruited for one year in the early part of 1865, and started from Camp Chase with seven hundred and fifty- nine men, the majority of whom had seen service in other regiments. All its officers were veter- ans., The regiment arrived at Harpers Ferry, March 25, 1865, and, after doing garrison duty for a few days, went into camp near Winchester, with the troops of General Hancock. While in
this camp, the news of Lee's surrender was re- ceived, and the regiment was ordered to Alexandria, Virginia, where it performed provost guard duty, until December 18th, 1865, and was thence ordered to Washington City, mustered out, and sent back to Camp Chase. Like all of the one year regiments recruited in the fall of 1864-5, it was composed of men who had fought through the whole war up to that period ; and, when they retired to their homes, they could truly say that they had "endured to the end," and that their beloved country, through their help, was once more to enjoy the fruits of their sacrifice-in peace.
ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-SIXTH O.V. I.- This regiment organized at Camp Chase, and was mustered into the service, March 25th, 1865, and immediately started for Virginia, where it was assigned to the Ohio Brigade at Winchester. Of thirty-eight officers comprising the field staff, and line, there were only two who had not served over two years, and the majority had served during the war, in ,other organizations. More than two-thirds Of the men in the One Hundred and Ninety-sixth had belonged to other regiments, and had been honorably discharged for wounds, or expiration of term of service. The men who composed the regiment, were mostly young men, and as an organization, it was not excelled in appearance, discipline and soldierly bearing, and though the regiment was not entitled to inscribe on its colors the name of any engagement, still nearly every battle-field in the Union, was represented in its ranks.
ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-EIGHTH O. V. I., COMPANY B—There were eight companies of this intended regiment, fully recruited and assembled at Camp Chase, all of which had been mustered in by company, but not as a regiment; before the maximum was reached, however, the " Confederacy " collapsed, and the men were sent to their homes.
Thus we close the chapter. That it might have been fuller of interesting incidents, is no doubt true, provided some faithful chroniclers had preserved them. But these that are given, have a shadow of doubt o'er them now and then, although this record should have been officially correct and complete. But when application was made to the Adjutant General of the State, for access to data from which to complete, this chapter, we received official answer that that officer could not afford such data. We there-upon wrote to the Adjutant General of the United States and received a similar reply, both of which we have preserved for reference. The reader will no doubt be the more thankful to know that we did not take "no" for an answer, but mined out from the papers found at Columbus, and in the old drawers of other places, the names given, in the enumeration by regiment and company, and, in some cases, individuals. We have also to regret some discrepancies in "Ohio in the War,' 'from which we have made copious extracts ; this is no doubt, however, a reliable work in general, and yet we have

discovered repetitions, and have undertaken to avoid this by the method pursued in this chapter. The difficulties that Mr. Whitelaw Reid had to encounter in compiling the history alluded to, can only be comprehended by those engaged in similar work, and hence we appreciate his labor, and say that he deserves the thanks of every citizen of the State of Ohio.

THE COURIER,
OLDEST REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER IN THE MUSKINGUM VALLEY-STEAM JOB ROOMS AND BOOK-BINDERY-INTERIOR VIEWS OF A MODEL PRINTING HOUSE AT ZANESVILLE.
The first Whig newspaper established in the Muskingum Valley was the Ohio Republican, founded in 1823 by Col. David Chambers. Through a long line of succession the Daily and Weekly COURIER are the representatives of that early journalistic venture ; and it need not be suggested that the "art preservative" has kept pace with the grand march of progress.
The interior views of the build- ing occupied by the COURIER at No. 32 Opera Block, North Fifth street, present some conception of the most complete newspaper establishment in South Eastern Ohio. The Daily COURIER enjoys in an eminent degree the favor and patronage of the citizens of Zanesville, while the Weekly COURIER reaches thousands and thousands of readers in this valley, and goes freighted with news to other thou- sands who have sought homes in various parts of the great West.
The Steam Job Rooms are furnished with the most improved machinery known to the mechanical world, and the latest, and a vastly varied assortment of materials necessary to the successful prosecution of the business of Steamboat, Railroad and Commercial Printing.
The Book Bindery occupies a large, airy and well lighted hall, 40x80 feet. The manufacture of blank books and ruled forms is carried on extensively, while spe- cial attention is given to binding in all its forms, including magazine work.
NEWSPAPER COMPOSING Room.
The proprietors of the COURIER esteem it their duty to labor for the promotion of the material interests of the Muskingum Valley, and in the conduct of the daily and weekly newspapers it has been, and will continue to be, their purpose to spread before their readers such information as will best tend to effect that purpose. No pains or expense are spared to procure and accurately present the news from all sections of the world. The COURIER makes a special feature of telegraphic market reports from the great centers of trade, as well as faithful reports of transactions in commercial and manufacturing circles at home. The COURIER carries on its pay-roll 44 persons. The various departments are personally managed by the members of the firm : the Business and Me- chanical by J. H. DODD; Editorial, by T. J. NEWMAN ; and City
and Advertising by R. B. BROWN.

THE BOSS SEALING WAX
MADE ONLY BY
ENGLAND BROS.
ZANESVILLE, OHIO
(ADVERTISING)
THIS celebrated Sealing Wax is manufactured only by England Bros., Nos. 280 and 282 River street, Zanesville. The immense quantity which they have manufactured and sold during the four years it has been upon the market demonstrates the fact that it has proven to be just what they claim for it, viz : the purest and only reliable sealing wax manufactured. It will not crack or become porous during winter, and can always be relied upon either with stone, tin, or glass cans, and thereby insuring that the tedious labor of carefully selecting and "putting up" fruit has has not been lost by impure and untempered sealing wax which has flooded the market since the war.
C. JACOBS & CO.
(ADVERTISING)
DURING the past three years these gentlemen have been located in Zanesville. They are the successors of George W. Blocksom, who ranked among the early business men of that city for a period extending over forty years. This establishment has been devoted to the drug trade since the purchase by Mr. Jacobs. The store has been completely stocked with new and fresh goods, and the prescription department is ably presided over by Henry A. Stanhope. A leading specialty with this house is the manufacture and sale of Mr. Jacobs' Rheumatic Powders. The powders are unexcelled as a cure for rheumatism and neuralgia, while, as a system renovator, it has no equal, An Asthma Remedy, lately put on the market, has already won its way largely in popular favor. A Kidney Remedy, and Corn Cure, are likewise deservedly popular, The Jacobs Instant Cure for Pain, an internal and external remedy, has, through merit, met with a large sale. A Worm and Cough Syrup, also the Jacobs Condition Powders, have each won golden encomiums. As these medicines are prepared under the eye of a practical chemist, each and every article described above are guaranteed or money refunded.

ROLL OF MUSKINGUM COUNTY'S DEAD SOLDIERS.
Honor to the dead, as well as the living, soldier ! The following list of soldiers who died on the battle field, in prison, in hospital, and at home, from wounds or disease, resulting from service in the War of the Rebellion—embracing those given in company, except the supplement to Company A, by R. B. Brown—is the result of three years' labor, by W. O. Munson, who obtained the particulars from relatives of the deceased ; and for this "labor of love," they, and every patriot, will ever hold him in grateful remembrance, and say, with the poet :
"Soldier, rest! thy warfare o'er,
Sleep the sleep that knows no breaking;
Dream of battlefields no more,
Days of danger, nights of waking.
In our Isle's enchanted hall,
Hands unseen thy couch are strewing,
Fairy strains of music fall,
Every sense in slumber dewing;
Soldier rest!"
