HO can write worthily of the services of Union Qount.fs soldiers, unless it W were to write the history of almost every campaign and battle of the war of the rebellion~ for the soldiers of this county served in every department of the army? In these few pages it has been the ai1n to give a brief history of every

organization represented in the county. Brief indeed1 will it seem to the soldiers who served in these organizations when the history of one regiment, even of one company, would fill a volume as large as the space occupied by the military record of the county in this history. Although I have for several years been collecting material for this work, when it is now completed I feel that the foundation has just been laid for future historians to write the history of the services of Union County's soldiers; my first intention was to confine the history to the soidiers of the war of the rebellion, but as the work progressed it was decided to include a brief sketch of the services of the grand old heroes of the war of the Revolution, the war of 1812, the war with Mexico and the ~Id "l\ililitia~' organizations. As there was no material. either written or printed from which to compile, I have woven together but a few frag­ ments gleaned from the old pioneers and descendants of these heroes of three wars, and hope this chapter n1ay not prove entirely· devoid of interest, as it is the first that has ever been published in the county. In the preparation of the roster; the names and record were copied from ·several different lists, the first being that taken by the Township A.ssessors in 1865, just at the close of the war, giving the names of all the soldiers who had en­ listed' from the different townships in the county. While this list was not complete, it furnished a good basis for operation. The rosters of the ex-soldiers associa­ tion and of the Grand _,,\.rmy of the Republic have been very material helps. The Township Assessors in the spring of 1882 very kine nuu.le fro1u the data at hand. · Only a glimpse can be given of the services of these regiments, but dates of organization, battles and everything pertaining to the history of the organizations have been compared with the records in the Adjutant General's office. In organ­ izations where it was not possible to find soldiers to take an interest in the history

of their regiments1 such matter has been utilized as could be found in other histo­ ries, and especially that of Reid's '' Ohio in the War." But the most difficult and laborious work has been that of preparing the rolls, and where errors are found I hope the soldiers of these regiments will generously bear a share of the fault, as they have been appealed to for many months through the newspapers of the coun­ ty, at re-unions and meetings of the Grand Army, to take an interest in the his­ tory of their regiments. No record of any regiment has been completed until it was submitted to members of the organization for inspe~tion, and then revised. Regiments having full companies organized in the county are given more space1 as in these more material was found, for many soldiers are now living in the county who were members of these companies. Writing in the interest of any particular regiment or arm of the _service, has been studiously avoided, as has also that of extolling the services of any soldier or officer, but always wishing to give credit where credit is due, and to record the history of regilnents as shown by their service, believing all to be equally good brave and patriotic soldiers,serving their country faithfully in whatever department, or in whatever arm of the service the fortunes of war cast them. The names of the principal battles of the war, with date, carefully compiled from the Adjutant Gen­ eral's office at Washington, D. 0., is given, also the number of soldiers buried in our National Cemeteries,· with 1nany other tables of interesting historical infor­ mation. That these pages, hastily written in the intervals of pressing official duties, will prove uninteresting to some, I have no doubt, but in the generations to come, when the actors in this great war for the preservation of the Nation shall have passed away, their descendants will be interested to know on what side their fathers stood when the Nation was tottering in the balance. It cannot fail to be of absorbing interest to them, and now that this labor of many months is drawing to a close, and as it has been a work of pleasure, performed without thought of re­ ward, ~yet with the bright hope before me that it will possess some charm to our descendants in the years to come, I feel amply repaid for my labor, and the pen is regretfully dropped when the "re-call is sounded," only wishing that it had been wielded by one more worthy to grasp the great theme-The War History of Union County. I am indebted to the .A.djutant General of Ohio, who so kindly gave access to the records in his office, which have given so much assistance in the work, and to the many soldiers of the county who have always responded to every call for facts. To Miss Anna Roney, 1nucll credit is due for efficient work in collating facts and intelligent assistance in all parts of the history. W. L. C. MARYSVILLE, OHIO, March 9, 1883. l\IILITARY RECORD. 5

CHAPTER I.

WAR OF THE REVOLUTION. "Where are our sires, our noble sires, Those n1en of toil and early thought, Who lit our sacred vestal fires, A heritage so dearly bought? "Ah ! bright upon historic page, Enrolled their names shall ever shine With peerless luster, age on age, Through bright'ning realm of coming time." ·AT the close of the war of the Revolution the soldiers were given lands in payment for their services. The ter,ritory comprising Union County is all HVirginia l\1ilitary Lands," being a part of that between the Scioto and the Miami Rivers, all of which was set apart for the Revolutionary soldiers by the United States Governnient. l\Iany of these old patriots took up these lands and in this way quite a num­ ber found homes in Union County. From this grand old Revolutionary stock sprang Union County's brave and patriotic sons who fought in the war of 1812, the .:Mexican war and the war of the rebellion. Of these old heroes of '76, several are buried in the cemeteries of this county. But little can be learned, even traditional, of their services, although many of their descendants reside in tlle county. Some of them are known to have fought at Yorktown, l\'Ionmouth, "\Vhite Plains, Germantown and other historic battle-fields_ of the war of the Revolution. James Thompson, grandfather of James Thompson, of Dover Township, served under La Fayette, and no doubt saw much hard service, but no particulars can be learned, s0 the old hero must rest in his soldier's grave unhonored and un­ sung. Col. .James Curry served through all the years of the Revolution, an officer of the "Virginia line." He was in the battle of Point Pleasant, October 10, 1774, and in this engagement was severe! y wounded. This is called "A. First Battle of the Revolution" by Chamber's Encyclopredia, from which we copy the following account of this battle. A.s it was fought before tile breaking-out of the Revolu­ tion, and was participated in by at least one of the citizens of this county, we give it place, believing it will be a subject of interest to the reader: "An important battle, fought October 10, 1774, between colonial troops of Virginia, under Gen. Andrew Lewis and the Shawnees, Delawares and other Indians composing the Northern Confederacy, led by Cornstalk as king and sachem of the Shawnee tribe, on the east bank of the Ohio River, and just above the great Kanawha. The village of Point Pleasant has since grown up on the spot where this battle was fought, which was and is to this day always spoken as the first battle of the Revolution. The ' Boston Tea Party' had already been held in the spring of the same year, and the ' Boston Port Bill ' was received in l\iiay-the signal of actual conflict between the colonies and the mother country. Lord Dunmore, Governor of Virginia, had been busy in the interests of England by way of stirring up a hostile feeling between the hardy white settlers and the various tribes of Indians, the object of which bad beco1ne apparent. At last a crisis was reached. The Legislature took action, under which Gen. Andrew Lewis gathered together 1;200 men at Lewis Springs, now Lewisburg, "\V. V tt. and from thence proceeded to Point Pleasant, acting as was understood, in cou - 6 UNION COUNTY

cert with the Colonial Governor, who in person led about 1,000 men through the wilderness, striking the Ohio at Wheeling, from which point he was to meet Gen. Lewis. All this time, unbeknown to Gen. Lewis, the agents of Lord Dunmore had been busy concentrating the Indians in the neighborhood of Point Pleasant, and subsequent events show that he never intended to join his forces with the troops under Lewis. Our space will not admit of our giving the various facts substantiating this statement made so emphatic in the history of the • Border wars ' by Withers and others. "In this bloody battle, about one-fifth of the entire army of Gen. Lewis were either killed or wounded, and of the Indians the number must have been even greater. It was the most severely contested battle of the kind of which we have any account, and was fought on both sides from behind trees in a dense forest of primeval growth, on one of the richest bottoms of the Ohio. It was wholly un­ expected~ the object being on the part of Gen. Lewis·, in fulfillment of the purposes on the part of th~ Legislature, to proceed with an overpowering force in con­ junction with Gov. Dunmore from Point Pleasant to the Indian settlement on the Scioto, beyond the Ohio. In vain did the brave Lewis look for troops from Wheeling. During the night of the 9th and 10th, a body of Indians was reported by a scouting party as having encamped near the site of an old Shawnee village, about six miles above. · ' · a At the same time, advices were received that Lord Dunmore would cross the country directly to the Scioto. Before sunrise on the morning of the I 0th, a hunt­ ing party returned and brought the startling report of " four acres of Indianst about a mile above the camp of Gen. Lewis. The party had been fired upon. At once~ on receipt of this news, the main body of the troops, under Col. Charles Lewis and Col. Fleming, were mustered into line. The battle soon began, and raged with varied fortune through nearly the entire day. The brave Col. Lewis fell, mortally wounded. Col. Fleming was soon after disabled~ when Col. Field~ who had come up with a re-enforcement, took command. This officer had learned a lesson from the unfortunate Braddock; but he, too, soon fell. At times the battle raged like a tempest. The roar of musketry was continuous. The clarion voice of Cornstalk was, nevertheless, everywhere heard bidding his wan·_iors, ' Be strong!' 'Be strong!' Seeing a warrior shrink, he sunk his tomahawk into his skull. The most unyielding and desperate courage was on both sides displayed until late in the afternoon, when three companies that had been detained in camp, perhaps on account of Indians in large numbers on the opposite shore of the Ohio, under Capts. John Stewart, Isaac Shelby and George Matthews-distinguished names­ reached the rear of Cornstalk by a well-planned movement, and decided the fortunes of the day. "A treaty was entered into at Camp Charlotte, in Ohio, at which Lord Dun­ more was present, who seemed to have a perfect understanding with the Indians; though the colonists were indebted mainly to Cornstalk for the treaty of peace which Dunmore seemed determined to postpone, as we might show. It was in view of the surprising valor displayed by the troops under Gen. Lewis in this de­ cisive battle that Washington, in the darkest days of the Revolution, was led to exclaim : 'Leave me but a banner to plant upon the mountains of Augusta, and I will rally around me the men who will lift our bleeding country from the dust and set her free.' " The following are the names of the soldiers of the Revolution buried in Union County, so far as can be ascertained after very careful inquiry in each township:

CHAPTER II.

WAR OF. 1812. ROM 1811 to 1814 was an exciting wat period in the history of this country. F Union County was then on the frontier and near to the seat of war of the Northwest. The territory which now comprises Union County was but sparsly settled. The settlements were along the southern border on Big Darby Creek and Sugar Run, and comprised the families of the R~binsons, Mitchells, Currys, Ewings, Sagers, Kents, Snodgrasses, Shovers and a few others. From the close proximity of these settlements to the seat of hostilities, it would be expected that there would be ample m~iterial for an extended chapter on the services of the citizens of this county during the war of 1812. But the early history of this territory is very meager from which to obtain any data of the stir­ ring events of that period. There are but few rolls now on file at the Adjutant General's office, and from these can be gleaned but little history, save the names of the members of the companies. Almost every citizen within th~imits of the county who was a military sub­ ject at that time was in the service at some time during the war. The first military company organized in the county was recruited during the year 1813, by Capt. James A. Curry. He was appointed enrolling officer of the district, including all the settlements along Darby Creek and Sugar Run, and or­ ganized a company, of which he was elected Captain, and Samuel l\'Iitchell First Lieutenant, and Adam Shover Second Lieutenant. Strange as it may seen1, but very little can be leal'ned of the members of this company, although they were recruited from the old families of Robinsons, ~Iitchells, Ewings, Kents, Sagers and others. 8 U~IO~ COUNTY

After diligent search among the records u.nd inquiring among the oldest of the descendant now living, the following-named citizens are known positively to have been members of this company: James A~ Curry, Captain; Samuel ~iitchell, First Lieutenant; .A.dam Shover, Second Lieutenant; James Buck, Calvin Carey, Ewing Donaldson, David 1\Htchell, Andrew N ote1na11, Clark Provins, Christiu.n Sager: George Sager, Abe Sager and William Taylor. They were u.ttached to a regiment the number of which cannot be ascer­ tained. They first rendezvoused at Delaware where orders were received to join Gen. Harrison's Army in the Northwest. They 1narchecl by· way of Upper Sandusky and the falls of St. Mary's to Fort Meigs, then returned by 1,Vapakonetta and Piqua. The majority of them were called out the second time to build and garrison block-houses on the frontier. The names of several citizens of this county appear on the rolls of Capt. l\'.lcClellan's company, among which are those of four brothers, James, "\Villiam, Samuel and Robert Snodgrass. Capt. James A. Curry first enlisted in June, 1812, at Urbana, in a company of light horse from Highland County, and was attached to Col. Carr's regi­ ment, composed mainly of Kentucky troops, and served in this campaign under Gen. Tupper on the Maumee and River Raisin. He was detailed as a scout during that summer; and being an experienced woodsman was kept constantly in service. I have heard him say he never performed a day~s camp duty during this _campaign. He was a fine horseman, was splendidly mounted, and he and the scouts serving under him were constantly on the move exa1nining the strea1ns for Indian signs, and watching the movements of the enemy. . A company was organized at Plain City, during the sum1ner of 1812 or 1813, of which Jonathan Alder was elected Captain and Frederick Loyd First Lieutenant. They were directed to march north toward the lakes about twenty miles beyond the settlememts of Darby, and erect a block-house for the protection of the settle­ ments. They marched to the banks of ~Iill Creek, u.nd after working three or four days a block-house was completed. l\ir. Alder says: "There were seventy in all, and one, Daniel "\Vatkins was made Colonel and Commander in Chief.'~ n:Ir. Alder, who ha~ been a captive among the Indians for fifteen· years and well knew their mode of warfare, condemned this as a very unwise move in the Governor to order so many men fro1n the settlements, for he claimed the tactics of the Indians would be to " attack the women and children in the settlements '' and a void the fort. They only remained at the block-house a few weeks. There being a false alarm; it was not possible to keep the men from returning to the settle1nents. This block-house was situated on the west bank of l\'Iill Creek, about three miles northwest from ~Iarysville on the farm now owned by Edward Powers. Some of the stones used either for the foundation or to strengthen the walls of the block­ house may yet be seen directl}7 east from ~Ir. Powers' house, a few rods from the banks of the creek. Thomas Killgore, who died at the residence of his son, Simeon Killgore, in Mill Creek Township, a few years ago, was a member of the company that erected this fort, and was the last one left of the co1npany; a short time before his death, he gave a detailed account of this campaign and the building of the block-house, which was transmitted by Judge Cole to the Pioneer .t\.ssociation of Union County. So far as can be learned, this is the only fort ever erected within the borders of this county, and this is probably known to but few of our citizens. Of the company that erected this block-house, it has not been possible to learn the names of any except those already mentioned. A. number of the young men in the settlements enlisted in companies outside of the county, and saw hard service during the war. Simon Shoyer, who lived on Darby, near the old Sager :Mill, in Jerome Township, enlisted in and was Orderly Sergeant of Capt. Langham's company, of Chillicothe ,Ohio. He was a brave :MILITARY RECORD. 9

and gallant soldier, and had many hair-breadth escapes. At one time, he was taken prisoner by the Indians, and saved his life by imitating a rooster crowing, by jumping up on logs or stumps, and :flapping his arms and hands. This seemed to please the Indians very much, as they laughed immoderately at his antics. Simon always claimed that this sa~ed his life. He was taken prisoner at Win­ chester's defeat, and often expressed his indignation at the treatment of Gen. "\Vinchester, who was abused and insulted by the Indians, without any check from the British. Simon Shover was one of fifty picked men, who mad_e a sortie from Fort Erie, and spiked the guns of the British during the night; and was, perhaps, the most distinguished soldier that went fro1n the county. He was of a good family, and honorable and brave to a fault. Be learned many of the traits of the Indians, and was accustomed to entertain large crowds of citizens at all kinds of gatherings, such as '~ log rollings," "husking bees," house and barn raisings," and '' 1nusters/' with 1na11:y interesting incidents of his adventures, both thrilling and ludicrous. In later years, he became dissipated, squandered his property, and led a wandering life, trusting to the charity of the old friends of his better days. Whereyer '' crowds were wont to asse1nblet Simon could always be counted as one of the number, and furnished 1nuch a1nuseinent by giving the "Indian war whoop " for a sixpence to buy a dram. His voice was as clear and shrill as a trumpet, and he could give a genuine war whoop that would have caused old Tecun1seh to have marshaled his warriors for the.field. l\Iany anecdotes might be related of his efforts to amuse the crowd during court term, and on "training day.'' One of his feats was to ride "'Old Peach Blossom," his fayorite mare, up the stairway and into the court-room of the old court house that now stands on the square at l\iarysville. He was anx­ ious to live a hundred years, and on 1neeting or parting with old friends 'he was wont to exclaim-" Hurrah for a hundred years !" A few years before his death, he was cast upon the charity of the county. He died on the 11th day of August, 1864, aged seventy-nine years, and was buried on the Infirmary farm. He lies in an bumble grave, '~ unhonored and unsung/' yet he is remembered by his old friends as brave, honest and upright Simon Shover. "Peace to his ashes.'' Another quite noted character t-b.at resided for many years prior to his

CHAPTER III.

THE OLD l\'lILITIA. HE first law passed in Ohio in regard to military 1natters wa·s a "law ror T -regulating and establishing the militia," published at Marietta, July 25, 1788 (Chase, Vol. I, page 92). This law required all" male inhabitants between the age of sixteen and fifty" to perform military duty·. The main features of this law re1nained in force until the year 184'7, when it was repealed. In fact the law becane a mere farce in the matters of carrying into effect its requirements. The earliest account of a militia organization is found in a report of the Second Ohio Regiment of l\filitia made by Col. James Curry in 1803, of which the following is a copy: MILIT. .\RY RECORD. 13

Return of the Second Reo-iment of Militia in the County of Highland. commanded by Lieutenant Colonel James burry, agreeably to returns made by the commanding officers of the several companies belonging to the said regiment, November, 1803.

The troops have generally powder and lead-the quantity not exactly ascertained- perhaps equal to what is required by law. JAlIES CURRY. · Lieutenant Colonel Commandant, Second Ohio Regiment. After the close of the war of 1812~ military matters in Union County seemed to have been very quiet for a number of years~ at least little can be learnerl of the mili­ tary affairs of that period. as the '' old guards'' have all been mustered out~ le:rving no record of their service. From the year 1825 to 1846, the militia spirit was in a blaze of glory throughout the State. There were two laws under which the militia was organized. The old '' corn-stalk miJitia," who were not required to uniform, and the companies and regiments that furnished their own uniforms and served for seven years: after which time they were exempt from drill. Several companies organized in the county under this law, were well uniformed and armed and became quite efficient in drill. A 1.ight horse company was organized at Milford about the year 1830, of which Calvin Winget was the first Captain, James Riddle the second, Jacob Seaman the third, C. P. Garlic the fourth, Philip Snider the fifth and J. B. Richey the sixth. Privates-David Anderson, Jonathan .A.. llen, David .,\sher, Hollis _,:\.my, James Boal, vVilliam Beard, Andrew Beard, Perry Buck, James Biggs, Henry L.

Reed, Jacob Seaman, William Snodgrass, Samuel Snodgrass, John Smith, H. P. Smith, E. D. Smith, Abraham Stiner, Henry Vangorden, Luther Wood, J osbua Witter, Samuel Weaver, Luther \Vinget. This company was well uniformed and equipped, each trooper being armed with two horse-pistols, carried in holsters, and a saber. They were well mounted and the company was composed of the elite of Union County's chivalrous young men. This company organization was kept up until the law was repealed in 1847. Several "light infantry" companies were organized in the coonty under the same law, and these were organized into a regiment and, with their fine drum corps of twenty snare drums, ten bass drums and twenty fifers, they presented quite a war­ like appearance when on parade. The militia laws were very rigid in their demands as to military duty. Every military subject was required to be armed with a good and sufficient mus­ ~et, fusee or rifle, and this was defined by the regulations to include "lock, stock, barrel and ramrod." · "J\Iuster Day" was a legal holiday, the only one at that time provided by 1-:1: UNION COUNTY law, and the "old boys" had a grand time at these musters. All the old "flint­ locks " and "pick-locks:, of the land were brought forth which the law defined as being " good and sufficient arms." In those ante-bellu,n days, there were '' company trainings," " regimental trainings, "offic~rs' musters" and '' General musters." "General musters" were the grand gala days of the year, and were considered occasions of momentous importance. The" call to arms" was sounded far and wide many weeks before the assembly, and preparations were made for it on a grand scale. Brass buttons and accouterments were burnished up, old rusty sabers and horse-pistols were put in order by the "dashing light-horse cavaliers," and the whole country was astir with a military spirit. "' Cooked rations," consisting of boiled pork and beans, pumpkin pies and all the fat of the land, were prepared in great abundance, with a good supply of hard cider and other drinkables which were sure to warm up the,~ rank and file" of the '' bold soldier boys " to the fighting point, and many a good old deacon considered it a sacred dut}T to indulge in the ardent to a liberal extent on training day. The militia law at that period required the organization of divisions, bri­ gades, regiments, battalions, light-horse companies, etc. The artillery arm of the service was very light, the old iron cannons being issued usually one in a place, at county seats or brigade headquarters; and many an accident happened by these old guns being manned by inexperienced men. One of these old iron guns, a six. pounder, was issued to the militia at Mil­ ford about the year 1838, and man:y pounds of powder have been wasted in that old gun celebrating political victories of all parties, Democratic, Whig and Republican. Milford Phillips was Captain of the first artillery company organized, and afterward Philip Snider was appointed Captain of the company. ....\.t a Fourth of July celebration at -Bridgeport, Union Township, in 1847 or 1848, ~Iortimer Tucker had his hand torn off above the wrist, and Robert Simpson had his arm torn off near his shoulder in firing this gun. At l\Iarysville, on the 16th day of September, 1856~ on the occasion of a political meeting of the Fillmore party, the gun was being fired, and by a premature discharge, Daniel Brophy and Archibald Turner were killed and Joseph G. Hawkins, the thumber, had his thumb torn off. The old gun was several times spiked and condemned and left on the com­ mons, where, unprotected, it " stood the storms of many a winter's campaign ;" but always, on the Fourth of July, it was brought forth by the boys1 and after being inspected was reported '· fit for active service," and the "chief of artillery," Bill Bancroft, solicited the usual donations for powder to fire the "' morning gun" to usher in the glorious Fourth. In ~June, 1876, the grim old rusts- gun was reported "fit for service," and the boys having donated the required amount for powder and" fire water," the chief mustered the" old guard," unlimbered and advanced to the fair ground, where she was placed in position for trial, loaded to the muzzle, the match applied, and the old gun was blown to atoms. And now, like Othello, the old chief's "occupation is gone." These organizations were officered by a long list of " field and staff," with many war-like titles, and they were all out in full force at general musters, in feathers and spangles, with" good and eufficient swords/' as the law required; but each officer was allowed to uniform as his taste dictated. and while the dress was uBually gorgeous, it was exceptional for two officers of the field and staff to have the sa1ne uniform. Finally, the system became so useless that the laws were repealed and the old " training clay " became a thing of the past. Many of Union County's best citizens were prominent officers in the militia organizations, among whom were Gens. Chipman, William B. Erwin and "\iVilliam :MILITARY RECORD. 15

Wiley, who now resides in the northern part of the county, was a prominent officer in the militia in Muskingum and Licking Counties, and he can interest his hearers by the hou1~ with amusing and interesting incidents of the general muster period. . General musters were held at Milford and at ~Iarysville, the camp grounds being just south of the old .A.mrine ~Iill, on the east side of the creek. A g:eneral muster was once held in i'Iarysville, on the south side of West Center street, between the new court house and the residence of Judge Coats. Company musters were held on Darby, near Unionville, in l\Iill Creek Town­ ship, and in Jerome Township, on the farms of Capt. James .. A... Curry and Robert Curry, and many other places in the county. Tile old militia system, with all its defects, kept up a military spirit in the ranks of the young men of that time, and many a young man who served in the war of the rebellion now looks back with boyish pleasure to the time when he was first thrilled with the shrill music of fife and drum on "training day.'' We close this chapter by giving a copy of a characteristic order from one of the old militia officers, found in the :Marysville _4.1·gus, bearing date of April 5, 1844: ATTENTION RANGERS.

The l\1ei­ O ican l\'.Iinister at ,v ashington had, previous to this time, ceased d_iplomatic relations with the United States, and soon after Gen. Zachary Taylor was ordered . to enter Texas with his arms to protect the border, and by reason of the annexa­ tior~ of Texas it became evident that war was inevitable. "\Vhen the call was made for volunteers in 1846 and 1847 to invade l\Iexico and settle the question * The principal facts in this Chapter a.re gathered from a pamphlet written and pulllished hy Alvin Rost', who served in Company E, l!'ourth Ohio Regiment, in the Mexican war. 16 UNION COUNTY of the annexation of Texas, the young men of Ohio responded gallantly to the call. The State furnished four full regiments of infantry, several co1npanies of cavalry, and quite a large number for the artillery service-in all upward of sixty companies, and now but one muster roll can be found on file in the A.djutant General's office at Columbus. Quite a number of the young men of this county enlisted and served in the war against l\lexico. .A.. large and enthusiastic meeting was held in l\iarysville, and when volunteers were called for many enrolled their names. This company went into camp on South l\'.Iain street, near the Town Run which passes under the railroad bridge~ where it remained at>out a week recruiting.

Riggans, M. Pheas­ ant, ..A.ndrew Spratt, George Skidmore and H. Woodruff, also of Union County, served in this war, but in different companies. The majority ~f the Union County boys enlisted in Capt. NL C. Lilly's com­ pany, of Columbus, and were assigned to the Fourth Ohio Regiment. ',Ve 1lere give a brief history of that regiment, showing the service of the Union County soldiers in this regiment. In the spring of 1847, the excitement consequent upon the war with lVIexico had reached its zenith; the tocsin of arms had sounded throughout the length and breadth of the land. From Texas and the Gulf of 3'Iexico to the lakes and rivers of the Xorth; from the sandy shores of the Atlantic to the snow-capped mountain of the far West, was heard the report ot' battles and victories ; and yet the call for troop$ to sustain the valor of the American arms, and " conquer a peace," was constantly meeting tlle ears, and moving the hearts of the patriotic. On l\Iay 29, 1847, a company recruited at Columbus, moved to Cincinnati, which was the place appointed for the regimental rendezvous, and was assigned as Company E, of the Foµrih Ohio Regiment, commanded by Col. C. H. Brough, Lieut. Col. V\T arner, :Maj. Young and Adjt. Kessler. On the 1st of July boats were ready in the river opposite the camp and the regiment took passage for New Orleans. Company E, under the command of Capt. l\I. C. Lilley, was placed on the steamer Alhambra. New Orleans was reached on the 7th, and after remaining at this place until the 11th, the troops went on board the steamer Telegraph, arriving in sight of Brazos Santiago on the morning of the 16th. The next morning prepa­ rations were made to ascend the Rio Grande in a boat, the William R. McKee ; on the 18th, :Matamoras was reached and the regiment went into camp certain of being in the enemy's country. The camp was situated nearly opposite to Fort Brown, on the Texan side, and adjacant to it was a fine parade ground, of which good use was made every day. In the latter part of August, orders were received to proceed to Vera Cruz and march to Gen. Scott's line of operations. A.c­ cordingly, on the 4th of September, the regiment took steamboats and descended the Rio Grande to the mouth. Here it remained until the 11th, when shipping being ready at Brazos it marched over to that place, embarked on board the sail ship Tahmroo on the 12th, and on the evening of the 15th hove in sight of the sand hills near Vera Cruz ; the following morning the Tahmroo ran into the bay and cast anchor near the great castle of San Juan de Ulliui. Having landed the troops, marched to a place about four miles north of the city and encamped on the beach, a miserable sandy place backed by the notable sand hills, and destitute i\IlLITARY RECORD. 17 of every attraction except sea breeze and good water. On the 19th a brigade was formed of the following troops: Fourth Ohio Regiment, Fourth Indiana Regiment, Capt. Simmons' Battalion of Detached Regulars and the Louisiana Dragoons, all under the command of Gen. Joseph Lane, of Indiana. Tents were struck and the long march commenced. About noon on the following day, as the troops entered a kind of a woodland the advance guard fell in with a party of guerrillas, gave them chase and killed and captured several. In this chase, Lieut. Coleman, of Col um bus, died from the effects of heat and fatigue. On the 21st the troops again moved for­ ward, but after marching several miles stopped at Paso de Ovejas: where they 1~e­ mainecl until the 25th, then proceeded to Plan- del Rio, and on the morning of the 27th moved forward, ascending the hills between the river and the heights of Cerro Gordo. This place, though picturesque in appearance, is re­ markable only from the fact that here Santa Anna and his army met with a signal defeat. On the 1st of October the brigade started on the march toward the halls of l\'Iontezumas; on the 7th arrived at a place near the Agnas Calientes: or, Hot Springs, and on the 8th proceeded on the way with the understanding that Santa ....\.nna was at Huamantla and would probably intercept them at Pass el Pinal. Earl_y on the morning of the 9th, Gen. Lane drew off all the troops except the Fourth Ohio, Capt. Simmons' Battalion and two pieces of artillery~ which were left ·behind to gu3rcl the train, and proceeded toward Huamantla; when within two or three miles of the place, he ordered Capt. Walker, with his mounted force, to gallop on, and if the l\:Iexicans were· in considerabie force not to attack them, but await the arrival of the infantry and artillery. On arriving near the town, the. Captain found that the main body of the enemy had started for the pass, while perhaps five hundred remained in the plaza. Upon these he made a furious charge, killing several of them and dispersing the rest, while he and his troops took possession of their artillery and ammunition. But before the arrival of tile infantry, the Captain was surprised by a charge from some twenty-five hundred lancers. In this fearful fray, the Captain was mortally wounded and fell from his horse while encouraging his men to still withstand the fearful odds against them until the other troops should arrive. Soon they came to their reliet and before many minutes the place was cleared of the enemy. A.mong the prisoners taken on this occasion was Col. LaVega, brother to the General of the same name: also ~Iaj. Iturbide, son of the foriner Emperor of l\:Iexico. On the 11th, the troops entered the pass, and after the principal part of the train had proceeded some distance, a wagon in the rear broke down · and seven companies of the Fourth Ohio were left to protect it until another wagon could be brought back and the baggage shifted into it. While thus detained, a party of lancers, about 1,500 in number~ appeared on the right and to the rear. The com­ panies immediately concealed themselves.behind some bushes and embankments and coolly awaited the attack. i\..fter considerable firing and maneuvering on the part of the eneiny, the wagon that had been sent for came rattling and thundering through the mountain pass, which they probably mistook for the approach of artillery, and with no little haste these valorous :Mexicans took their exit to the opposite side of the plain. Continuing the march, the troops arrived at Ama­ zuq ue, and, after resting a few hours, pressed forward, intending to enter Puebla and relieve Col. Childs and his gallant band before night. On nearing the city, the clash of arms was distinctly heard, and also the Colonel firing a salute on his eighteen-pounder. The troops passed through the principal parts of the city, only being occasionally fired at by the foe concealed on the tops of the houses. This firing was kept up for some minutes, when, being returned with compound interest, the bells rung for a truce, and the Mexicans abandoned the city. The joy of Col. Childs and his men seemed to have no bounds; and no won­ der: for they had been hemmed up in the north part of the city for nearly a 18 UNIO~ COUNTY- month, and a good part of that time bad been scant of provisions and water. Day after day had they lived upon fl.our, water and coffee, and these not in abundance. The enemy, finding that Col. Childs would not surrender the place, had attempted to starve him out. So destitute of meat were the Colonel's men that it has been told that they even ate cats ! Their ammunition was so near spent that they had to wrap six-pound balls to fire from twelve-pound guns. But upon the arrival of re-enforcements~ they sallied forth, and entering the well-filled meat stores, appro­ priated some of the superfluities of their l\1exican 11eighbors to their own neces­ sities. On the 19th of October, details from the Fourth Ohio and other regiments started on an expedition again':st a party of l\'Iexicans under Gen. Rea, the noted guerrilla chief. "\Vhen about ten 1niles from Puebla, the enemy was met and a close conflict ensued; retreating some distance, they again made a stand, and fought desperately with the dragoons, but on receiving a shot or two fro1n the artillery, they again fled and ran into Atalixco. The loss of life in this engage­ ment was considerable. The report of the l\'Iexicans was 219 killed and 300· wounded; the Americans, two killed and one wounded. The forces were about 1,500 A.mericans and about the same number of l\'.lexicans. · A de~achment of some 300 men was sent to a little town called Huacalcingo, for the purpose of capturing two pieces of cannon belonging to the enemy. The guns were hid on the arrival of the troops, but by a diligent search they were fouI1d and spiked, and the Americans re-assembled at Puebla, elated with their success a.nd the probable cessation of hostilities. The stay in Puebla was some­ what long-from the 12th of October, 1847, to the 2d of June, 1848-during which time the prospects of peace and war were alternating with a regularity per­ plexing and vexatious to the American forces. However, after much uncertainty and many disappointments, about the 1st of May, 1848, intelligence was received which made the hopes of peace more warrantable than they had ever been before. On the 2d of June, orders were received to take up the line of march for Vera Cruz, and the 3d found the troops hastening homeward. After being detained at Encero until the 16th, awaiting the arrival of shipping at Vera Cruz, the line of march was again resumed, and three days later the Gulf coast was reached. On the 22d, they boarded the ship Edgar, of New York, and stood out to sea; on the 12th of July, arrived at Cincinnati- and on the 20th the companies were disbanded and with glad hearts the men dispersed to their homes in various directions. ~iany of these soldiers of -the l\Iexican war took a prominent part in the war of the late rebellion, and not a few of the boys who enlh,ted in the late war were first drilled by these heroes of Buena Vista and in the old " Scott Tactics." J. G. Hawkins was Colonel of the Thirteenth Ohio; Dr. D. W. Henderson was a Surgeon in the Ninety-sixth Ohio ; C. P. Cavis was a Captain in the One Hundred and Twenty-first Ohio, and Dr. James Cutler, who has been a citizen of the county for a number of years, was a Captain in the First Ohio Cavalry. Some of them are" sleeping their last sleep" in honored soldiers' graves, among whom are Col. J. G. Hawkins, killed at Stone River, and Capt. C. P. Cavis, killed at Bentonville. A few of them still live, honored with the well.earned titles of two wars. MILITARY RECORD. 19

CHAPTER V~

THE WAR OF THE REBELLION. " Our country is calling, go forth ! go forth ! To danger and glory, ye hetoes ; In danger your manhood must prove its worth, There hearts are weighed in the balance; And he who would win his life at last Must throw it all on the battle's cast." HE first gun of the war of the rebellion was fired on Fort Sumter, on the T 12th day of April, 1861, and the smoke still hung over the battered walls when the first call was made for volu:n.teers. On l\londay morning, the 14th day of April, 1861, the President issued the following proclamation : WHEREAS, the laws of the United States are now and have been opposed in several States by combinations too powerful to be suppressed in the ordinary way; I therefore call forth the militia of the several States of the Union, to the aggregate number of 75,000, to suppress said combinations and execute the law. '" * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * -le· The Iirst service assi~!.1ed the forces will probably be to repossess the forts, places and property seized from the union. On Tuesday, the 15th day of April, 1861, the Governor of Ohio issued a proclamation calling for thirteen regiments, and on Friday, three da:ys thereafter, two regiments~ numbering 1,700 men, were on their way to Washington. Union County, with all the loyal North, was awakened to the danger ·or the hour. The rattling drum and the tread of marching soldiers were heard in every town and village in the county. When we recall the days of 1861, we can again hear the stirring music of fife and drum~ and again we see the boys of Union County as they marched through the streets with banners proudly waving, and were off for the war. '' Proudly and firmly marched off the men ; Who bad a sweetheart thought of her then ; Tears were coming, but brave lips smiled when The soldiers followed the drum, The drum, The echoing, echoing drum." And again we see them returning, after four years of war, with their old tat­ tered flags faded by the Southern sun and blackened with the smoke of battle. Their ranks were broken ; their old, faded blouses and jackets had borne the sto_rms of many battles, but they came crowned as heroes. They were welcomed home by a grateful people, who vied with each other in doing honor and homage to their sons who had fought the battles of a war that cost "four hundred thousand loyal lives, that made three hundred thousand union soldier cripples for life, and left more than one million widows and orphans to mourn for their loved ones who did not return." ..... ·union County, with a population in 1860 of 16,507, sent into the service up­ ward of three thousand soldiers, of all arms of the service-infantry, cavalry, artillery and navy-representing more than one hundred regiments, batteries and independent companies. The total roster of soldiers published in this history numbers 3,538 ; this includes soldiers now living in the county, who went into the service from other counties, and many of them from other States. These rolls have all been carefully examined by soldiers of every regiment represented, and those known to have entered the service from other counties have been checked, and this leaves the number from this county 3,200. Add to this the veterans that 20 UNION COUNTY re-enlisted, 348, and we have a grand total of 3,548 enlistments. This includes about 200 represented in two different regiments or companies ; deducting these and the veteran enlistments leaves upward of 3,000 sol~iers from the county. Of the full companies sent from this county, tliere was one for the first three months' service in the Thirteenth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and thirty­ two men for the Seventeenth Regiment, aggregating one hundred and twenty-six men ; six companies for the three years' service under the first call, three compa­ nies under the three years' call in 1862, one company under the three months' call in 1862; one company for the six months' service in 1863, three companies of" One Hundred Days men" in 1864, three companies of one year's service in 1864, ancl two companies of" Squirrel Hunters" in 1862-in all twenty companies. Three hundred and forty-eight re-enlisted as veterans under the call of the President in December, 1863. These were men who, after having served more than two _years in one organization, re-enlisted in the same organization for "th:ree years more, or during the war." Of these veterans re-enlisting from Union County, the following regiments of Ohio \'olunteer Infantry were repre­ sente·d : Thirteenth, Twenty-sixth, Thirtieth, Thirty-first, Thirty-second, Fortieth, Fqrty-sixth, Fifty-fourth, Sixty-sixth, Seventy-sixtll, Eighty-second, Fifteenth, Seventeenth, Twentieth, Twenty-second, Twenty-third, Twenty-seventh, Thirty­ thir<.1, · Thirty-eighth, Forty-second, Forty-third, Forty-fourth~ Fifty-third, Fifty­ eighth, Sixty-third, Sixty-fifth, Seventy-fourth, and First Ohio Volunteer Cavalry. Besides the full companies raised in the county. companies were largely re­ cruited for the Fortieth and Fifty-fourth Ohio Volunteer Infantry and the First Ohio Volunteer Cavalry ; a. company of sharp-shooters, and quite a number of colored troops for the Fifth and Twenty-seventh United ·states Colored Troops. Many others entered the regular army, mostly in the Eighteenth Regiment United States A.rmy, and many eniisted and were credited to other counties of whom we have no record. · Union County's contribution to the war was equal to the total number of rnale adults in the county at that time, as a large nu1nber of the soldiers were boys under age. :From the first call for soldiers in 1861: until peace in 1865, Union County filled her quota for every call. Of the co1nmissionecl officers, two attained the rank of Colonel, two of Lieutenant Colonel, three of l\:Iajor: four of Surgeon, fifty of Capt~in; and seventy of Lieutenant-in all one hundred and thirty commissioned officers. \Ve did not furnish a brilliant array of officers of high rank-Brigadier and Major Generals manufactured to order at home by political influence and ne,vs­ papers, fighting battles at long range; but we

'' They were the builders whose work is imn1ortal. Crowned with the dome that is over us all." The soldiers of Union County fought upon every field of the thirty-one prin­ cipal battle-fields of the war, from Bull Run to Appomattox. The first of her sol-. diers wounded was at Bull Run. They were at Carnifex Ferry, where the first ~HLITAR Y RECORD. 21 soldier from the county was killed ; and again we find them led by Garfield marching on to victory in Eastern Kentucky, then following Thomas triumphantly at l\Till Springs, in January, 1862, and in February we find them at Fort Donelson, both with the land and nayal forces. They fought at Shiloh, Corinth and Perry­ ville; again struggled amid the cedars of Stone River; then poured out their best blooCumberland Gap, I{noxville, Vicksburg, Murfreesboro and Kingston. They were at Charleston and Bentonville. They participated in the most brillliant cavalry raids of the war, and carried death and destruction into the heart of the Confederacy, under the leadership of those dashing cavalry chieftains, Kilpatrick, Custer and Sheridan. ~Jany of them were at Appomattox, and finally, it was the fortune of Union County's cavalrymen to be present at and participants in the capture of the President of the Confederate States. The blood of Union County soldiers was poured out upon all these sanguinary battle-fields, and many of them are sleeping in nameless graves on the fields where they fell. · A.ncl what was Union County's sacrifice in the war? 133 of her soldiers were killed in battle ; 400 died of wounds or disease, or wasted in the prison pens ; 360 were wounded, and 143 were prisoners of war, making a total loss of killed~ died, wounded and prisoners, of 1,035 ; 200 sleep in the graveyards and cemeteries of the county, and 321 are buried in the South and in unknown and unlettered graves, there awaiting the assembly· of the grand army above, where Heaven's "Recording angel will call the roll'' on that great day. What a sacri­ fice fo~ one little county ! but what a grand army will muster on that other shore. In addition to these, there are buried in the cemeteries of the county ten sol­ diers of the war of the Revolution~ 109 of the war of 1812, and 7 of the war with l\Iexico, making a total of 655 soldiers, residents of the county, mustered out of life's service. The first three soldiers who enlisted in the county, as shown by published records, were John N ewlove, C. S. Irwin and James Chapman. They were too ,impatient to wait for a company to be recruited in the county, and Irwin went to Springfield and joined 3, company that was assigned to the Sixteenth Ohio Regi­ ment in the three months' service. Newlove and Chapman joined a company from Urbana, of the Second Ohio Regiment, and were in the first battle of Bull Run. Both N ewlove and Irwin were afterward enlisted and served over four years in the First Ohio Cavalry. The first Union County soldier who died in the service was C. C. Hurly, of Company D: Thirteenth Regiment ; the first one wounded was James Chapman, of the Second Regiment, who was wounded at Bull Run, and the first one killed was Ransom Reed, Company F, Thirteenth Regiment, who was killed at Carnife::s: Ferry, September I 0, 1862. The first company to enlist and enter the service~ in response to the first call for 75~000 volunteers for three months,,was a company recruited at lHarysville by J. G. Hawkins and l\I. C. Lawrence. The first war meeting was held in the old court house on the evening of April 15, 1861, and ten days later the company was organized and started for camp at Columbus, Ohio. A company was organ­ ized at Plain City, by Thomas J. Haynes, at about the same elate, in which many Union County boys enlisted. A company was also organized at New California, M 22 UNION COUNTY

about the 25th of April, of which James Cutler was elected Captain, W. L. Curry 1 First Lieutenant, and D. R. Cone, Second Lieutenant. About sixty men enlisted, but before the company was recruited to the required number to enter the service the three years' call was issued, and many of the men becoming impatient, enlisted in other companies, and this company never entered the service. The following companies were organized in the county under the first call for three years' service: Company F, Thirteenth Ohio Volunteer Infantry; Company B, Thirty-second Ohio ·volunteer Infantry; Company E, Thirtieth Ohio Volunteer Infantry; about fifty men for Companies D and I{, of the First Ohio Cavalry; Company F, Thirty-first Ohio Volunteer Infantry; a large number for Company K, Fifty-fourth Ohio Volunteer Infantry; a detachment for Company D, Fortieth Ohio Volunteer Infantry; Company F, Sixty-sixth Ohio Y olunteer Infantry, and Company Hr Eighty-second Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Detach­ ments were also recruited for 1nany other Ohio regiments, and for the Seventh, Seventeenth and Eighteenth United States Infantry. These companies were organized during the summer and fall and were all in the field by ear_ly winter. On the 27th day of Septe1nber, 1861, an order was issued by the A.djutant General of Ohio, appointing military committees in every county in the State, and they were empowered to appoint recruiting officers and were to superintend the recruiting service in their respective counties and have general supervision of military affairs. The first committee appointed in Union County was composed of P. B. Cole, J. W. Robinson, C. Rathburn, A.. F. \Vilkins and G. L. Sellers. John Cassil was the first recruiting officer appointed by the committee, and he recruited a company for the Sixty-sixth Ohio Volunteer Infantry. J. _,\_ Hender­ son, Joseph Newlove and James R. Smith were afterward appointed me1nbers of this committee. The military committee was kept in service until the close of the war, and did good and efficient work in this county in the management of military matters. In the month of October, 1861, in response to the call of the Governor, the citizens of the county sent large donations of clothing and blankets to the .soldiers in the field, this being the first well-directed movement for the relief of suffering soldiers in the field and prior to the organization of any regular "aid societies." Soon after this, however, ., aid societies :, were organized all over the county, not only., for the relief of soldiers in the field, but for the relief of the families of sol- diers in the county. The first of these of which any record can be found was organized in Union Township, November 29, 1861~ J arnes Fullington, A ...A .. Woodworth and John Reed being the prime movers in the n1atter. · These societies collected and distributed from this county thousands of dollars in money, clothing and sanitary stores, and hundreds of sick soldiers in the hos­ pitals and on the field were ministered to and made comfortable by the donations from the patriotic ladies and citizens of Union County. Thousands of dollars were paid to the soldiers of the county as bounties during the war~ and it may be truly said that her citizens never failed to respond to every call ~ade for either money, sanitary donations or soldiers. The companies organized in the county during 1861 were assigned with their regiments to the different departments of the army as follows: The Thirteenth Regiment entered the field in West Virginia, fought at Carni­ fex Ferry September 10, where Ransom Reed fell, the first of Union County's soldiers killed on the field of battle; from Virginia to Tennessee, mn.rched with Gen. Buell's columns to Pittsburg Landing and lost heavily in that hard-fought battle. · The Thirtieth Regiment was ordered to Virginia, was at Carnifex, and had many skirmishes during the fall and winter ; spent the winter at Fayette,·ille, working a part of the time on the fortification, and in April, 1862, we find it at Raleigh. ::\IILITARY RECORD. 23

The Thirty-first Regiment was assigned to the Department of Kentucky, and marched in Decern ber to the relief of Gen. Thomas at l\lill Springs ; wintered in Kentucky, then n1arched with the army or the _Ohio to Pittsburg Landing and took part in the siege of Corinth. The Thirty-second Regiment left Camp Dennison for vVest Virginia in Sep­ tember, 1861; was soon on Cheat i\Ioul!tain, and nuder Gen. l\Iilroy took part in the advance on Camp A.lleghany. During a greater part of the winter, the regiment remained at Beverly, drilling~ and on tlle 1st of )Iay, 1862, advanced on Buffalo Gap. The Fortieth Regiment left Camp Cllase in December, 1861, for Easterr?.

l(entucky 1 and in January, 1862, participated in the battle of l\liddle Creek, de­ feating Humphrey ::Marshall. The Fortieth spent the rest of the winter at Piketon on outpost duty, and until June, 1862. · The Fifty-fourth Rcgiinent organized at Ca1np Dennison; left for Paducah~ l(y.; in February, 18G2, ,vllere 1t was assigned to Gen. Sherman's Division, and engaged in the battle of Pittsburg Landing, losing in this, its first fight, nearly 200 men. The Sixty-sixth Regiment struck tents at Camp l\'lc~l\rthur, near Urbana, in

January, 1SG2, and was off for "\Vest Virginia1 wbere it was assigned to the com­ mand of Gen. Lander, at New Creek, and immediately commenced active service. During the first winter, the regiment was constantly on the move scouting and skirmishing: and in June, 1862, we find it marching with the army of Gen. Shields up tile Shenandoah to Port Republic. The Eighty-second Regiment, organized at I{enton, was ordered to Virginia, in January, 18G2, and spent the winter at Fetterman, drilling and in camp duty. In the ear!y spring, it was on scouting sen·ice under command of Gen. Schenck, and in ~lay marched under Gen. Fremont toward Branch :Mountain. The First Ohio Cavalry, organized at Canp Chase, received marching orders for l{entucky, and on tlle 9th clay of Dece1nbcr, 1861, struck tents, and on the 11th of the same month arrived at Louisville, being the first regiment of cavalry to enter that department. The regiinent remained at Louisville, drilling, until Jan­ uary, 1862, when it was ordered to join Gen. Thomas, at lVIill Springs, but did not urrive in time to take part in that battle. The regiment was on scouting duty· in K.entucky, during the winter, and bad its first encounter with the command of John l\:Iorgan, on Green River. Late in )larch, tlie_y led the advance of Gen Euell's columns to Pittsburg Landing, and participated in the siege of Corinth. Such was the disposition of Union County companies that enlisted under the first three years' call, in the spring of 186~, at tlle close of the first year of the war. On the 26th of ·l\Iay, 1862, Gov. Tod, in compiiance with a call from the "\Var Department tor troops to protect the .Nation~tl Capital, then threatened by Stonewall Jackson~ published a proclamation calling foe volunteers for three months. The day before, he had sent telegra1ns to every county in the State announc­ ing the need of troops and assigning the number expected from each county, urg­ ing that all who were willing to volunteer should hasten to Camp Chase. "\Vithin two days 5,000 volunteers had responded to tlle call, and within ten days the first of the new regiments-the Eighty-fourth, was on its way to the field. The Eighty­ sixth and Eighty-eighth soon followed~ while the Eighty-fifth and Eighty-seventh were organized for duty within tlle State. Under this call, one company was re­ cruited for the Eighty-sixth Regiment in Union County, and served three months in Western Virginia. Under the calls of the President in J nne, 1862, for troops for three years~ service, Ohio's quota was 74,000, one-half of which was liable to draft.* "ife11 were universally averse to the id.ca of a draft, and the people of O1.tio were es­ pecially anxious that it might be said that the soldiers from this State were vol­ unteers. In compliance with popular demand, Gov. Tod made an effort to dis-

*Reid's History. 24 UNIO~ COUNrY

tribute the new quota impartially a1nong the different_ counties, n.nd to obtain the proper number of volunteers from each; the draft was only to be used as a last resort." The regiments having been loc,tlizecl, each co1n1nunity took particular interest in raising the required number of troops, and in '~ getting clear of the draft." In this assignment, the Ninety-sixth was allotted to Union and its neigh­ boring counties. It was under these calls that the Seventy-ninth, tb.e Eighty-third, the Eighty-ninth: the Ninetieth, the Ninety-first, the Ninety-second, the Ninety­ third, the Ninety-fourth, the Ninety-fifth, the Ninety-Sixth, the Ninety-seventh, the Ninety-eighth, the Ninety-ninth, the One Hundredth, the One Hundred and First, the One Hundred and Second, the One Hundred and Third, the One I-Iun­ dred :.1nd Fourth and the One Hundred and Fifth Regiments were raised in the yarions counties of Ohio. In response to this call, one company was recruited in this county in August, and was assigned as Company K, of the Ninety-sixth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Under the call of July 1, for 300,000 troops, two con1panies were recruited for three years' service, and left :i\Iarysville about the 1st of Septen1ber, for Camp Delaware; they were assigned as Companies .A. and I, of the One H undrecl and Twenty-first Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry. At tb.is period Union County was in a blaze of excitement; the rattling drums of the recruiting officers were heard in every town and at every cross road. It seemed as if the whole country had been converted into a recruiting rendezvous. We now had in the field ten companies, and many detachments in various other organizations. lVIany of the soldiers who had enlisted at the first call had been killed or wounded, and many others had died of disease and had been brought home and buried by their friends. '' l\'Ionrners _were going about the streets," and the weeds of mourning were to be seen in many families. Ransom Reed, the first to fall, had been brought ho1ne and buried with the honors of war, amid a large concourse of people, on the 6th of October, 1861. The funeral services of four soldiers-Cyrus Thompson, Delmore Robinson and two brothers, sons of Henry Crist---were held in the Presbyterian Church at Marysville, on the same day, July 23, 1862. The people now began to see and realize some of the results of the war, for now there were broken hearts, bitter tears of sorrow and desolate ho1nes. Many of the soldiers who enlisted in the last companies had left fa1nilies. The citizens realized the necessity of the hour, and relief societies began to work with renewed energy. The military com1nittee was active, and in July appointed com­ mittees in each township to take subscriptions for tlle relief of soldiers' families, and fair hands were busy making clothing and preparing sanitary stores for the hospitals. At this time, Gen. Buelrs army was falling back rapidly toward Louisville, and one column of Gen. Bragg's ar1ny was advancing by forced marches on Cincinnati. Gov. Tod issued a proclamation in Septen1ber, 1862, calling upon the cit­ izens of Ohio to rally to the defense of Cincinnati. I-Ie said : "Our Southern border is threatened with invasion. I therefore reco1n1nencl that all loyal men form the1nsel ves into military companies to beat back the enemy at all points he may attempt to invade the State." In response to this calL two companies wen1~ from Union County, aggregating about one hundred men in all, 1nany of them old and gray-headed, prominent among whom was the Rev. B. D. Evans, a very intel­ ligent old Welshman and Presbyterian minister of Jerome Township. They went with their shot-guns, rifles, powder horns and shot pouches ; "they responded gloriously to the call for the defense of Cincinnati, ·and you should acknowledge publicly this gallant conduct," said Go,~. Tod in a dispatch to the Secretary of "\Var.

These men were denominated ,; Squirrel Hunters," and were 1 by act of Legislature, given honorable discharges. )I!LITARY RECORD. 25

During the winter of 1862-63, a law was passed by the Ohio Legislature, organizing the militia so as to drill the entire militia force of the State, including every able-bodied man between the age of eighteen and forty-five, to be armed, uniformed and equipped so as to be instantly available in case of invasion. This was the nucleus of the .; Xational Guards of Ohio," the next year to be thrown into the field on two days' notice, 35,000 on~ hundred days' men. Under this law, 3,631 militia were enrolled in this county ; below we give the election of officers in these companies1 so far as can be learned: Paris Township, East District.-Captain, L.

The large number of 1nen recruited during the summer and fall of 1862, were im1nediately thrown into the field, without any experience in camp life or drill, and these men suffered very much during the seYere winter. .At no other period during the war did so 111any soldiers of Union County die of disease and exposure in the same length of time. Among the heaviest sufferers were the soldiers of the Ninety-sixth and the One Hundred and Twenty-first Regiments. Under the call in June, 1863, for six months: regiments, this county sent one company, which was assigned to the Eighty-sixth Regiment. It entered the field in A.ngust, took part in the campaign after John l\Iorgan, and was then ordered to Cumberland Gap, Ky., where it operated until the expiration of its term of service. ~!any recruits were sent from the county during the summer of 1863 to the old regiments, but no other full companies were raised that year. The next enlistments in which the county figured prominently was that in which the citizens at home had but little to do: this was the veteran enlistment of the old regiments in the field that had g~nc out under the first call in 1861. " Their terms of enlistment were expiring long before the great campaign to which thev were looking fonvarcl should be ended." Their ranks were thinned by serv­ ice ~on the field of battle, in the camp and in the hospitals. These soldiers knew what war was, with all its horrors; yet they, with a patriotism never before or afterw~.rd equaled during the war, stood by the flag and again enlisted for '; three vears or during the war.:: This gave a new inspiration to the recruiting service. i\iore than 20.000 veterans re-enlisted. and when thev came home on their thirty dnys' furlougl{~ their decimated ranks ;ere rapidly filled up by new recruits, and a thrill of patriotism swept over all the land. The first regiment to re-enlist was the Sixty-sixth, which was soon followed by the Thirteenth, Thirtieth, Thirty-first, Thirty-second, J?ifty-fourth and Eighty-second and the First Ohio Cavalry. During the winter of 1863-64, these veterans were honored, feasted and toasted by almost every family in the county: and they had never felt until then 26 UNION COUNTY

how "warm was the gratitude of these loyal men, women and children at home for the boys who were fighting the battles of the great war." ~Iany men enlisted from tb.e county in these old regiments, which returned to the field in the early spring with full companies and with renewed devotion to the cause of the Union. In the spring of 1864, it see1ned that the critical point in the war was ap­ proaching. Great armies were in the field, all preparing tor a forward movement. The A.rmy of the Potomac, under Grant, was preparing for the campaign of the Wilderness ; the Army of the ,vest was active, and Sherman, with his grand army in Georgia wa$ about to attack the well-guarded works of the rebel army in the center; that was to prove a bloody summer:s campaign. It was at this critical period that the National Guard, or '' Hundred Days' Men," were called out to man the forts, that all the veterans 1night march to the front for the great struggle of the bloody battle summer of 1864 ; 30,000 of Ohio's Guard went into camp in one day in response to the call of the Governor. ·union County contributed to this number three full co1npanies that were assigned to the One .Hundred and Thirty-sixth Regi1nent Ohio ~ational Guards, and several {letachments for other regiments. Quoting from a newspaper of that date : :, Fortunate was it for the countrv that the Governor of Ohio held in his hand this reserved thunderbolt of war. The crisis of the rebellion was upon us. The rebel foe was insolent and sanguine. They were gathering their. whole military power and preparing to hurl it upon the Union columns in one deadly and decisive eonflict. The. hearts of all brave men throbbed in unwonted anxiety as they looked upon the formidable array of rebel hosts. They saw that the impending conflict 1nust speedily occur. Tliey knew that failure to our arms would be an inexpressible disaster to the National cause; and all wanted the assurance of our success made doubly sure by giving additional strength to our armies in the field. To render that strength effective, it 1nust be added at once. The exigency per­ mitted of 110 delay. The re-enforce1nents must come then, or their coming would be useless for the critical moment of the campaign. It was at this moment of public anxiety-a moment pregnant with the Nation·s future-that Gov. Brough sent forth the reserved power of thirty-five thonsand brave and gallant National Guards. At the very 1noment when most needed, the Ohio army stepped into the place of veterans ancl thereby enabled the Govern1nent to send that many veterans forward to sustain Gen. Grant's advancing columns. Our State mili­ tia organization was made the 1neans for meeting the emergency; and most nobly and gallantly did the 1ne1nbers of that organization respond to the call of the Governor." · In response to the call in July, 186-t, for one year regiments, two compauies were organized in the county, and were assigned a~ Co1npanies B and C, of the One Hundred and Seventy-fourtll R3giinent Ohio Volunteer Inf~1.ntry; and under the last call, in December, 1864, for 26,000 men to fill the last quota of Ohio, one company was recruited for the one year service, which was assigned as Company B of the One Hundred and Eighty-seYenth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry. This was the last company recruited in the county, and it entered the field in February, 1865. :Many of these soldiers were lads thirteen ,or fourteen years of age when the war began, but now they had grown to 1nanhood, and went forth to take the places of their fathers and brothers who had fallen upon the field of battle or died of wounds and disease. Thus Union County responded to every call, from the first gun at Fort Sumter to the sounding of the re-call at .A .. ppomatto:s:: Court House in 1865. Every quota was filled, and at the end of the war Union County stood eleven ahead of her quota on the last call, as shown by the rec0rds in the Adjutant General's office. Her loyal citizens at home stood by the soldiers in the field, by contrib­ uting money by thousands of dollars for the relief of soldiers' families and by relief societies to give aid and comfort to the wou1)ded, sick and suffering sol­ diers in the field. MILITARY RECORD . 27

.A.h, the history of this work of love and devotion of the mothers, wives, sis­ ters and sweethearts never can be written ! We can only get a glimpse of it; for who can tell of their anxiety or of the m·any weary and wa;lreful nights as they watched and prayed for their loved ones, many of whom were never to return. The tender, sad memories of the war, speak to all more eloquently than can be written on the page of history, as they sweetly and pathetically remind us how the mothers and women of the land, touched by the fires of patriotism, bade their son$ gird on the armor of their country; how, through the long and bitter years of the war, their faith was unbroken and their loyalty was firm; and how, when their dear ones were borne home cold and lifeless, they, like the Spartan mothers, i:c thanked God that their boys had died that their country might live."

" The wife who girds her husband's sword, 'Mid little ones who weep or wonder, And bravely speaks the cheering word­ What though her heart be rent asunder? Doom'd nightly in her dreams to hear The bolts of death around him rattle, Hath shed as sacred blood as e'er Was pour' d upon a field of battle! "The mother who conceals her grief ,vhile to her breast her son she presses, Then breathes a few brave words and brief, Kissing the patriot brow she blesses, With no one but her secret God To know the pain that weighs upon her Sheds holy blood as e'er the sod Received on Freedom's field of honori" The record of the war is not complete without the history is written of the part borne by our loyal women.. How much we owe to their love, care and en­ -couragement for .all we have achieved; and bow we strive in all the laudable am­ bitions of life to win their smiles of approval. In these few pages, the services of the soldiers of lTnion County have been but briefly sketched, and may we not, in this brief retrospect of a few of the great results of the war, justly congratulate ourselves as soldiers that we have borne a part, however humble our position, in the accomplishment of that "great and mighty drama of a nation preserved?" .. A.nd it is not taking to .ourselves any un­ merited honors, either for our patriotism or for our services; but we can say truly, without the charge of egotism, that the soldiers of this county did their duty, honestly, faithfully and patriotically, in the day of our Nation's peril. Almost twenty years have passed away since the close of the war, and when peace spread her mantle over the land, the ranks of the army melted away like the smoke of battle. The soldiers laid aside their uniforms as quickly as they had donned them when the first drum-beat sounded "to arms!" and soon took their places in the busy marts of industry and the peacefnl avocations of life. A million soldiers laying down their arms after four years of sanguinary war, and quietly taking their places in the civil walks of life without any unusual com­ motion, was a sublime spectacle upon which all civilized nations looked with won­ der and admiration. These were the volunteer soldiers of a free country. The soldiers of Union County were no exception to this rule, and the boys of twenty years ago have become the good and substantial citizens of to-day. The "good soldier is the good citizen," and in all the positions of life they bear themselves as becomes brave and gallant soldiers of the Republic. They are found· as farmers, merchants, in the counting-room, in the halls of legislation and in places of honor and trust all over the land. . From disease contracted and from wounds received during their service, the soldiers are falling rapidly, one by one-falling by the wayside, comrades of all ranks passing away. 28 UNION COUNTY

'' A chosen corps they are marching on In a wider field than ours; We shall meet and greet with closing ranks In time's declining scenes, "\Vhen the bugles of God shall sound recall And the battle of life is won.'' And as one by one our comrades are mustered out of life's service, let us cherish more warmly each succeeding year the memory of their services, and as our heads are bowed and sprinkled with the frosts of mans· winters, let us be bound more closelJ· by that friendship formed during our service on the march and in the camp, and "welded in the fire of battle;" and let us not forget the widows and orphans of our late comrades. They are the wards of the nation; let us " guard them with a jealous eye," and keep them in our fostering care, for no man can give better proof of devotion to friend or co'Untry than that he will " lay down his life for them."

RELIEF WORK il.Tl> AID SOCIETIES. During the long weary years of the war, those who went to the field were not the only sufferers nor the only persons who devoted their services and lives to their country. The heroism displayed by the loyal women of the North as they labored at home, in the hospitals and on the battle-field, proved that they were not unworthy their soldie1·s. Of the vast amount of work done by the fortunate onP-S whooe privilege it was to devote their means and their services to the care of the soldiers and their families, there is no record save that inscribed in the minds and hearts of a grateful and sympathetic people. The real history of their service never has been, never can be written. Societies were organized in every town, viUage and hamlet, in which the whole people joined in the unofficial efforts in behalf of their stricken ones. ThA first movement in Union County for the relief of soldiers was _in Oc­ tober, 1861, in response to an appeal of the Governor made to the generosity of all friends of the Union to contribute blankets and articles of clothing for the men in the field-the Government lrbeing unable to supply these goods in such quantities as they were demanded. Accordingly, committees were ap­ pointed in each township and the work of collecting and shipping the re­ quired articles was pushed rapidly forward. To the citizens of Union Township is due the honor of having taken the first steps in the county :for the purpose of rendering material aid and comfort to the families of volunteers from their township. At a meeting held in Milford Center, in November, 1861, there was appointed a committee of one from each school district of the township, whose duty it was to learn the necessities of such families and to solieit and receive money for their us_e. In pursuance· of the proclamation of the Governor of Ohio, issued April 11, 1862, calling for donations for the relief of the sick and wounded Union soldiers, a large num.ber of the citizens of .Marysville aesembh=~d at :the con.rt house on 1\'Io!!.day~ April 14, and organized a Soldiers' ReliE,f Society, with the following officers: Mrs. W. W. Woods, President; Mrs. Ingman, Vice President; Miss Mary Coe, Secretary and Treasurer; and Mrs. Pickett, :Mrs. ~Iary Cooper, Mrs. B. F. Kelsey, Mrs. J. W. Robinson, and Mrs. S. C.

Th~t the last meeting in November will be the annual meeting. 3. That a quarterly report be made from the Secretary and Treasurer. About the time of the <>rganizati, ,n of the Ladies' Soldiers' Aid Society in Marysville, similar societies were organized in the various townships of the county. Large sums of money and great quantities of supplies were collected and sent forward for the soldiers. No better outline of the work of these so­ cieties can be given than the' following summary of sanitary stores which were shipped from Marysville during the last two weeks of April, 1862: Blankets, 9; bed ticks, 1; bandages, 25 rolls; books, 6; butter, 25 pounds; comforts, 18; cushions, 73; clothes, co-rnbs, crackers, cocoa; drawers, 71 pair; dried fruit, 25 packages; dried beef, 8 packages; dressing gowns, 12; eggs, 184 dozen; handkerchiefs, 60; ham, 400 pounds; jars of fruit, 82; jelly, 3 glasses; loa.f sugar, 50 pounds; maple sugar; mattress, 1; needle cases, 4; needles; pillows, 117 ; pillow cases, 249 pairs; perpared chicken, 84 cans; paper and envelopes, pens, pencils, pins, periodicals, pin cushions; pickles, 1 barrel; quilts, 32; rice sheets, 179; shirts, 209; socks, 69 pairs; slippers, 12 pairs; table cloths, 4; towels, 233; tea cakes, 1 bushel; tapioca; wine, 1 bottle. Few if any of the societies have left a report that woulJ satisfactorily ex­ hibit the barest outline of their efforts. But from the time of their organiza­ tion until the close of the war-when help was no longer needed-the work was carried on with indefatigable vigor, and on a scale proportional with the nuwber of soldiers furnished by the county. As the war progressed, other and more public movements for relief were inaugurated, in which Union County expended $30,786 as a Military Relief Fund., $39,604 as a Bounty Fund, and $2,000 as a Veteran Bounty Ifund­ $72,390 in all. This amount was raised by public t.ax and entirely outside of the thousands of dollars donated _in a private way by individuals and aid so­ cieties of the county. .MILITARY RECORD. 119

UNION COUNTY EX-SOLDIERS' ASSOCIATION. A number of ex-soldiers aasembled at Union Hall, l\Iarysville, Ohio, on J\,Ionday evening, July 26, 1880, and organized themselves into a society, styled" The Union County Ex-Soldiers' and Sailors' Association." The following plan of organization was adopted by the society. " This organization shall be known as The Union County Ex-Soldiers' and Sailors' Association. "All officers and soldiers in the United States service during any part of the war of the rebellion, who were honorably discharged, may become mem­ bers by signing the Constitution and By-Laws of the Association. " The. officers of the soeiety shall be a President, Vice President, Secre­ tary and Treasurer, to be elected by ballot annually, and to serve until their successors are elected. "The main object of this organization shall be to perpetuate the memo­ ries of the service and cherish its friendships by annual meetings or celebra­ tions and re-unions under the charge of the officers of the society and such as­ sistants as may be appointed for the purpose; on the death of a comrade, to attend the funeral in a body and to render assistance in any way that may be deem~d necessary and to aid in perpetuating the National Decoration Day. "The objects of the organization may be furthered in any other appropriate manner the society may adopt." The first officers elected by the association were: J. L. Cameron, Presi­ dent; W. L. Curry, Secretary, and J. Van Pearse, Assistant Secretary. The first re-union of the ex-soldiers of Union County was held under the auspices of this society at Marysville, on the 26th of July, 1881. Everything conspired to render this first re-union a grand.success. A beautiful, bright blue sky, a cool, refreshing breeze, the beating of drums and flaunting of banners, a host of distinguished visitors and a long line of battle­ scarred veterans ushered in thP day which was to witness one of the greatest events in the history of the town. The decorations both public and private were universal. Big flags and little flags waved and fluttered everywhere in the breeze. and the view up and down the leading streets of festooned arches and long lines of buildings be­ decked with bun_ting, evergreens and inscriptions, was tho admiration of the many visitors and a surp1·ise to our own citizens. An account of the exercises of the day would be but a repe£ition of the programme: which read as follows:

:SATIONAL SALUTE AT SUNRISE. Procession will form at 11 o'clock A.. M., with right resting at the public square, in the following order, under the direction of Col. W. L. Curry, Chief Marshal: . 1.

Addresses were also made on this occasion by Gov. Foster, Hon. George K. Nash, Hon. Charles Townsend, Hon. J. F. Oglevee, Gen. J. S. Jone$, Gen. J. S. Robinson and other di8tinguisherl guests. And thus pleas­ antly closed the exercises .of the day. All concerned are to be congratulated on the entire success of the re-union, and not the least of these are the ladies who so untiringly gave their labor and taste to the work of making the occa­ sion a success. The number in attendance was estimated at from ten to twelve thousand. Tli.e second re-union of this association was held at Marysville on the 17th of August, 1882, Dr. D. W. Henderson presiding, and D. T. Elliot acting as Secretary. "Not only the soldiers themselves were present on this occasion, but they brought their families and remained all day and interlarded the proceedings with a basket dinner, thus making the oecasion. one of real social pleasure." One of our newspapers, in commenting on these re-unions, says: "The annual re-union of the soldiers of Union County has become one of the permanent institutions, as it ought to be. We hopP- theRe re-unions may become more prominent every year. The number of soldiers will from now be thinning out, but with their decreasing number will come a mor~ vivid recollection of the evAnts which they helped creatP-." Twenty years hence they will be very scarce. Renee the necessity of the present organization, which is designed to bring into closer fellowship the old veterans who bore the heat and burden of the conflict, and to keep them in the kindest regards for each other while they are living. Let us, therefore, cherish the Soldiers' Association of Union County for the good its members have doti.e a!ld for the glorious memories it is designed to perpetuate. D. Webb is the present President, c1,nd W. M. Winget, Sec­ retary of the Association.

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC. A Post of the Grand Army of the Republic was organized in Marysvi Ile, August 25, 1881. The Post was named Ransom Reed Post, in honor of the first soldier -from Union County who lost his life in the war for the preserva­ tion of the Nation. Ransom Reed was a private, Company F, Thirteenth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, who fell at the battle of Carnifex Ferry, September 10, 1861. l\IILITARY RECORD~ 121

The number of the Post is 113, Department o:f Ohio. The Post was or­ ganized and instituted by Capt. D. Lanning, of Columbus, Ohio, mustering offi­ cer. The charter members were W. L. Curry, M. C. Lawrence, John Hobensaek, .Andrew Sabine, J. V. Pearse, W. P. Anderson, S. G. Fry, S. M. Landon, D. T. Elliott, D. W . .Ayers, J. L. Cameron~ William M. Winget, J .. B. Cole: G. P. Robinson, ~.,rank Filler, T. P. Freeman, William H. Robb, .. William M. Liggett, Homer Thrall, John L. ,Porter. L N~ Hamilton, Thomas. Martin, T~ S. Mullen, B. W. Keyes, D. Webb, John ·wiley, W. E. Baxter, W.. H. Robinson and "\iv... illiam Torrence. The first officers chosen were: W. L. Curry, Post Commander; Johni Hobensack, Senior Vice Commander; M. C. Lawrence, Junior Vice Commander;: W. M. Liggett, Adjutant; W. H. Robb, Quartermaster; Andrew Sabine, Surgeon; Homer Thrall, Chaplain; W. P. Anderson, Officer of the Day·; S. G. Fry, Officer of the Guard; D. T. Elliott, Sergeant Major; S. l\f. Landon, Quartermaster Sergeant; J. B. C0le: Assistant Inspector; and W. M. Winget, Aid-de-Camp. Ransom Reed Post has had uninterrupted growth and prosperity. There have been only one or two meetings in eighteen months that recruits have not been muster~d. The total number mustered in t,he Post since its organ­ i~ation is 220; of these ten have been transferred to the Scribner Post, · since organized at Plain City. In this large number of comrades there are repre­ sentatives of over seventy different regiments and battalions. Only one member of the Post has died sincA the organization, M. C. Law­ rence, late Lieutenant Colonel of the One Hundred and Twenty-first. Ohio In­ fantry, who at the time of his death was Junior Vice Commander. His death occurred December 15, 1881, and on the 18th he was buried by the Post ac­ cording to the service prescribed in the ritual for the burial of the dead. As the public are interested in knowing th~ objects of the Grand Army oi the Republic, it may be well to give a brief statement of them here.: First, the object is not political; this is distinctly declared in the fo11owing emphatic language in the rules: " No officer or comrade of the Grand ...i\.rmy of the Republic shall in any ma.nner use this organization for partisan purposes, and no discussion of par­ tisan questions shall be allowed at any of its meetings~ nor shall any nomina­ tion for political office be made." The objects are: 1st, "the preservation of the spirit of comradeHhip, t.o_ preserve and strengthen those kind and fraternal feelings which bind togethert.he soldiers, sailors and marines who united to suppress the late rebellion, and to perpetuate the memory and history of the dead. " To secure the last-ment.ioned object, a day is set apart, the 30th of May, to be observed as Decoration Day. The Post has an impressive service to be used on that day. 2d, mutual helpfulness. "To assist such former comrades in arms as need help and protection, and t.o extend needful aid to the widows and orphans of those who have fallen.'~ It is the design of each Post to ac­ cumulate a fund to be used for charitable -purposes. 3d, the promotion of loyality to the Nation. "To maintain true allegiance to the United States of America, based upon a paramount respect for and fidelity to the National Con­ stitution and laws, to discountenance whatever tends to weaken loyality, in­ cites to insurrection, treason or rebellion or in any manner impairs the effi­ ciency and permanency of our free institutions; and to encourage the spread of universal liberty, equal rights and justice to all men." No man can be· come a member of the Grand Army uf the Republic who has ever borne arms against the Government, or upon whom "the stnin of treason rests." All honorably discharged soldiers and sailors of the war for the preservation of the Nation are eligible to membership. All distinction of rank are done away,. 122 UNION COUNTY the title by which members are addressed or referred to in the meetings and business of the Post being " Comrade." The several constituted bodies of the association are Post, the State or­ ganization or Department, and. the national organization, known as the Na­ tional Encampment of the Grand _,hmy of the Republic. A badge, consisting of a bronze star made out of cannon captured during the war and upon which is represented every corps of the army, is given to each comrade at his muster in. The Commander of a Grand Army Post ranks as Colonel; S. V. Com­ mander, Lieutenant Colonel; J. V. Commander, Major; Surgeon, Major; Offi­ cer of the Day, Captain; Quartermaster, First Lieutenant; Adjutant, First Lieutenant; and Officer of the Guard, Second Lieutenant.

•CURRY CADETS.

BY A. H. BEIGHTLER. On the 18th day of .July, 1877, under the statute of the State, authorizing the orga.niz!l.tion of military companies, to be known as t.he Ohio National Guard, and to be subject to the order of the Governor for the purpose of suppressing riots or repelling invasion, a, company was or­ ganized in Marysville, composed of forty-five young men from among the best families in the town. Their enlistment was for the term of five years. On the same date William L. Curry was elected eaptain of the company, William M. Liggett First, and Charles W. Radebaugh, ~econd Lieuten­ ant. The company was at once furnished with fatigue uniforms and Springfield breech-load­ ing rifles by the State. From the organization of the company its offiaers were very diligent in drilling it, and it soon became one of the best drilled and disciplined companies in the State. The company was assigned to the Fourteenth Regiment, then being formed, with headquar­ ters at Columbus, and was at first Company " E " of that organization, and afterward changeg. to "D." By a resolution unanimously adopted July 4, 1878, the company was named the H Curry Cadets, " in honor of Capt. Curry, who had then been elected Lieutenant Colonel of .th.e Fourteenth Regiment. On November 23, 1877, William M. Liggett was promoted to the captaincy of the company, and Charles W. Radebaugh to the Frst Liieutenancy. John F. Zuerner was elected Second Lieutenant. · The Fourteenth Regiment having its headquarters at Columbus, was often called upon to do active duty, on important public occasions, and in which the Curry Cadets always participated. On January 14, 1878, it took part at Columbus in the inauguration of R. ~L Bishop, as Governor of Ohio, and formed a part of the great military review on that occasion. August 11, 1880, it took part in the National Re-union of ex-soldiers and·sailors at Colum­ bus, where it was reviewed by President Hayes, General Sherman, and other distinguished officers of the Regular Army, and formed a part of the President's escort. It was also at the funeral of President Garfield at Cleveland, October, 1881, a.nu was the red.pient of special attention and honor on that memorable occasion. In· an interview with Gen. W. S. Hancock, published in the Cleveland Daily Globe, at that time, the General spoke in terms of the highest praise of the military bearing, strict discipline and soldierly appearance of the Fourteenth Regiment. During the funeral ceremonies, the Fourteenth Regiment was given the post of honor, and placed on guard duty in Lake View Cemetery, and by orders from headquarters, the Curry Ca­ dets were placed at the vault to guard the same and assist in .. the decorations ; and they re­ mained on duty there till the last sad rites in honor of the martyred President had been per­ formed, and the distinguished men of tke Nation there assembled had moved sadly and silently away. One week in each year the regiment went into camp, being furnished by the State with all necessary equipments for that purpose. · The time in camp was alw11.ys well improved, by company and battalion drill, and learning the details of camp life. The first camping- place of the regiment was on the fair grounds, near Marysville, in August, 1878, where a week was spent in active service. The next c3.mping place was near Delaware, where the Regiment stayed from August 12 to 17, 1879. In 1880, from August 5 to 10, at Niagara Falls, N. Y., and from the 10th to the 12th of the same month at Columbus, Ohio. In 1881, from August 3 to 9, at Lakeside, Ohio. _ On the 18th of July, 1882, twenty-five of the members of the company, who enlisted July 1'8, 1877, were discharged by reason of the expiration of their term of enlistment, and the remain­ ing members, with a number of recruits, re-organized the company, and it stiil maintains its reput.ation as a very efficient orgn.niza.tion.

Believing that not only soldiers but the general reader, after having perused the brief history of the services of Union County's soldiers,. would be interested in the " maxims of war " which govern the movements of an army in the field, I have carefully compiled, from the .Axmy Regulations 3:1-d the best military authorities, this short chapter on marches, battles and sieges. MARCHES. The object _of the movement and the nature of the ground determine the order of march, the kind of troops in each column and the number of col­ umns. The "general," sounded one hour before the time of marching, is the signal to strike tents, to load the wagons and pack-horses, and send them to the place of assembling. The fires are then put out, and care taken to avoid burni:cg straw, etc., or giving to the euemy any other indication of the move­ ment. The "march" will be beat in the infantry, and the "advance" sounded in the cavalry, in succession, as each is to take its place in the column. When the army should form suddenly to meet the enemy, the "long roll" is beat and " to ·horse" sounded. The troops form rapidly in front of their camp. Batteries of arti1lery and their caissons move with the corps to which they are attached; the field train and ambulances march at the rear of the column, and the baggage with the rear guard. In cavalry marches, when distant from the enemy, each r~giment, and, if possible, each squadron, forms a separate column, in order to keep up the same gait .from front to rE'ar, and to trot, when desirctble, on good ground. In such cases, the cavalry may leave camp later, and can give more rest to the horses and more attention to the shoeing and harness. Horses are not bridled until time to start. · The execution of marching <>rders must not be delayed. If the com­ mander is not at the head of his troops when they are to march, the next in rank puts the column in motion. 124 UNION COUNTY

In night marches~ the Sergeant Major of each regiment remains at the rHar with a drummer, to give notice when darkness or difficulty stops t.he march. In cavalry, a trumpeter is placed in rear of each sqnadron, and the signal repeated to the head of the regiment. In approaching a defile, the Colonels are warned; they close their regi­ ments as they ~ome up ( each regiment passes separately, fat an accelerated pace~and in as close order as possible). The leading regiment, having passed and left·room fo.r the whole column in close order, then halts, and moves again as soon as the last regiment is through. In the cavalry, each squadron, be­ fore quickening the pace to rejoin the column, takes its originai order of march. If two eorps meet on the same road, they pass to the right, and both con­ tinue their march, if the road is wide enough; if it is not, the first in the order of battle takes the road, the other halts. .A. column that halts to let another column pass resumes the ma1·ch in ad­ vance of the train of this column. If a column has to pass a train, the train must halt, if necessary, till the column passes. The column which has pre­ cedence must yield if t,he commander, on seeing the order of the other, finds it for the interest of the service. On a road, marching by the :flank, it would be considered " good order " to hav~ 5~000 men to a mile, so that a full corps, of 30. 000 men, would extend six miles; but with the average trains and batteries of arti1lery, the probabil­ ities are that it would draw out to ten miles. On a long and regular march, the divisions and brigades should alternate in the lead; the leading divisions -should be on the road by the Aarliest dawn, and march at the rate of about -two miles, or at most two and a half miles, an hour, so as to reach camp by :noon. Even then the rear division and trains will hardly reach camp much before night. Theoretically, a marching column should preserve such order that by simply halting and facing to the right or left it would be in line of battle; but this is rarely the case, and generally deployments are made "l:or­ ward," by conducting each brigade by the flank obliquely to the right or left to its approximate position in line of battle, and _there deployed. In such ·a line of battle, a brigadP- of 3,000 infantry would occupy a mile of "front;" but for a strong line of battle, 5,000 men, with two batteries, should be al­ lowed to each mile, or a division would habitually constitute a double line with skirmishers and a reserve on a mile of " front."

BATTLES. Dispositions for battle depend on the number, kind and quality of the troops opposed, <)n the ground, and o:c. the objects of the war; but the follow­ ing rules are to be ob:;erved generally: In attacking, the advanced guard endeavors to capture the enemy's outposts, or cut them off from the main body. Hav-ing done so, or driven them in, .it occupies, in advancing, all the points that can cover or facilitate the march of the army or secure its retreat, such as bridges, defil ~s, woods and heights; it then makes attacks, to occupy t-he enemy, without risking too much, and to deceive them a.S to the march and projects of the army. When the enemy is hidden by a curtain of advanced troops, the command­ ant of the advanced gnard sends scouts, under intelligent officers, to the right and left, to ascertain his position and movements. If he does not su~ceed in this way, he tries to unmask the enemy by demonstrations; threatens to cut the advance from the main body; makes false attacks; partial and impetuous ch~rges in echelon; and if all fail, he makes a real attack to accomplish the ~object. :MILITARY RECORD. 125

Detachments, left by the advance guard to hold points in the rear, rejoin it when other troops come up. If the army takes a position, and. the ad­ vanced guard .is separated from it by defiles or heights, the communication is secured by troops drawn from the main body. At proper distance from the enemy, the troops are formed for the attack in several lines; if only two can be formed, some battalions in column are placed behind the wings of the second line. The lines may be formed by troops in column or in order of battle, according to the ground and plan of attack. The advanced guard may be put in the line or on the wings, or other posi - tions, to aid the pursuit or cover the retreat. The reserve is formed of the best troops of foot and horse, to complete a· victory or make good a retreat. It is placed in the rear of the central or chief point of attack or defense. The cavalry should be distributed in echelon on the wings and at the center, on favorable ground. It should be instructed not to take the gallop until within charging dis­ tance; never to receive a charge at a halt, but to meet it, or, if not strong enough, to retire maneuvering; and in order to be ready for the pursuit, and prepared against a reverse, or the attacks of the reserve, not to engage all its squadrons at once, but to reserve one-third, in column or in echelon, abreast of or in the rear of one of the wings; this arrangement is better than a second line with intervals. In the attack, the artillery is employed to silence the batteries that pro­ tect the position. In the defense, it is better to direct its fire on the advanc­ ing troops. In either case, as many pieces are united as possible, the fire of the artillery being formidable in proportion to concentration. In battles and military operations, it is better to assume the offensive, and "'put the enemy on the defensive; but to be safe in doing Eo requires a larger for~e than the enemy, or better troops, and favorable ground. When obliged to act on the defensive, the advantage of position and of making the attack may sometimes be secured by forming in rear of the ground on which we are to :fight, and advancing at the.moment of action. In mountain warfare, the assailant has always the disadvantage; and even in offensive warfare in the open :field, it may frequently be very important, when the artillery is well posted, and any aclvantage of ground may be secured, to await the enemy and compel him to attack. The attack should be made with a superior force on the decisive point of the enemy's position, by masking this by false attacks and demonstrations on other points, and by concealing the troops intended for it by the ground: or by other troops in their front. Besides the arrangements which depend on the supposed plan of the enemy, the wings must be protected by the ground, or supported by the troops in echelon; if the attack of the enemy is repulsed, the offensive must at once be taken, to inspire the troops, to disconcert the enemy, and often to decide the action. In thus taking the offensive, a close column should be pushed rapidly on the wing or flank of the enemy. The divisions o.fthis column .form in line of battle successively, and each division moves to the front as soon as formed, in order, by a rapid attack in echelon, to prevent the enemy f1~om changing front or bringing up his reserves. In all ~arrangements, especially in those for attack, it is most important to conceal the design until the moment of execution, and then to execute it with the greatest rapidity. The night, therefore, is preferred for the movement of t:r.oops on the flank or rear of the enemy, otherwise it is necessary to mask their march by a grand movement in front, or by taking a wide circuit.

In making an attack, the communications to the rear and for retreat mu.st be secured, and the General must give beforehand all necessary orders to provide for that event. When a succes~ is gained, the light troops should pursue the enemy promptly and rapidly. The other t'!-"oops will restore order in their columns, then advance from position to position, always prepared for an attack or to support the troops engaged. Before the action, the Generals indi.cate the places where th~y will be; if they change position, they give notice of it, or leave a staff officer to show where they have gone. Du.ring the fight, the oflicers and non-commissioned officer~ keep the men in the ranks, and enforce obedience if necessary. Soldiers must not be permitted to leave the ranks to strip or rob the dead, nor even to assist the wounded unless by express permission, which is only to be given after the action is decid~d. The highest interest- and most pressing duty is to win the victory, by winning which only can a proper care of the wounded be insured. Before the action, the Quartermaster of the division makes all the neces­ sary arrangements for the transportation of the· wounded. He establishes the ambulance depots in the rear, and gives his assistants the necessary instruc­ tions for the service of the ambulance wagons and other means of removing the wounded. The ambulance depot, to which the wounded are carried or directed for immediate treatment, is generally established at the most convenient building nearest the field of battle. A red flag marks its place, or the way to it, to the conductors of the ambulances and to the wounded who can walk. . The active ambulances follow the troops engaged, to succor the wounded and remove them to the depots; for this purpose the conductors should always have the necessary assistants, that the soldiers may have no excuse to leavA the ranks for that object. The medical director of the division, after consultation with the Quarter­ master General, distributes the medical officers and hospital attendants at his disposal to the depots, and active ambulances. He will send officers and at - tendants when practicable, t') the active ambulances, to relieve the wounded who require treatment before being removed from the ground. He will see that the depots and ambulances are provided with the necessary apparatus, medicines and stores. He will take post, and render his professional services,. at the principal depot. If the enemy endanger the depot, the Quartermaster takes the orders of the General to remove it, or to strengthen its guard. The wounded in the depots and the sick are removed, as soon as possible, to the ho~pi tals that have been 'established by the Quartermaster General of 'the army, on the flank or rear of the army. After an action, the officers of ordnance collect the munitions of war left on the field, and make a return of them to the General. The Quartermaster's department collects the rest of the public property captured, and makes the returns to headquarters. Written reports for the General commanding-in-chief are made by com­ mandants of regiments, batteries, separate squadrons, and by all commanders of a higher grade, each in what concerns his own command, and to his im­ mediate commander. When an officer or soldier deserves mention for conduct in action, a special report shall be made in his case, and the General commanding-in-chief decides whether to mention him in his report to the Government and in his orders. But he shall not be mentioned in the report until h~ has been men­ tioned int.he orders to the army. These special _reports are examined with MILITARY RECORD. 127 care by the intermediate commanders, to verify the facts, and secure com­ mendations and rewards to the meritorious only.

PRISONERS OF WAR. Prisoners of war will be disarmed and sent to the rear, and reported as soon as practicable to headquarters. The return of prisoners from the l:ead­ quarters of the army to the War Department will specify the number, rank and Gorps. SIEGES. . In the following regulations, the besieging force is supposed to be two divisions of infantry and a brigade of cavalry. The same principles govern in other cases. The Brigadier Generals of infantry serve, in turn, as Generals of the trenches; one or more of them are detailed daily, according to the front and num­ ber of attacks; they superintend the operations, and dispose the guards of the trenches to repulse sorties and protect · the works. Officers of the general ·staff are assigned to them to transmit their orders and attend to the details of service. The commandants of engineers and artillery accompany the first troops be­ fore the works, to examine the works and approaches. When the engineers have completed the reconnoissance of the works, and of each front as far as practicable, the commandant of engineers makes a plan of the works, as exact and detailed as possible, and, under ·the instructions of the General commanding the siege, draws up the general plan of the siege, and discusses it with the commandant of artillery in regard to the best employment of that arm. These· officers then submit their joint or separate opinions to the General, who decides on the plan of the siege, and gives the orders for the execution. The command-· ant o:f engineers directs the construction of all the works of the siege, under the authority of the General, and lays before him every day a report of his operations, and a plan showing the progress of the attack. The commandant of artillery also makes daily reports to the General, of a~l that relates to his branch of the service. ·The field officer of the trenches sees that men and litters are always ready, to bring off the wounded. One or more companies of the guards of the trenches are put under his immediate orders for the preservation of order and police in the trench2s. The divisions, brigades, regiments and battalions are encamped,during the siege, in the order of battle. Materials for the siege, such as fascines, gabions, hurdles, pickets, etc~, are furnished by the different corps, in the proportion ordered by the General. G:1ards and workmen going to the trenches march without beat of drum or music. The guards always enter the trenches with arms trailed, and the workmen also, unless they carry materials or tools, when the arms are in the sling. Sand bags, forming loop-holes, are placed at intervals in the parapet, to cover the sentinels; they are more numerous than the sentinels, so that the enemy may not know where thA sentinels are placed. When detachments are placed at night in advance of the trenches, to cover the workmen, the men sit or lie down, with their firearms in their hands, to hide themselves better from the enemy; the sentinels put their ears to the ground frequently, that they may hear troops coming out of the place. To prevent mistakes, the workmen are told what troops cover them. No honors are paid in the trenches. When the General commanding the siege visits them, the gnards place themselves in rear of the banquette, and rest on their arms. The colors are never carried to the trenches, unless the 128 .UNION COUNTY whole regiment ma-rches to repulse a sortie or make an assault. Even in this case, they are not displayed until th~ General commanding the siege gives a formal order. In the case o:f a sortie, the guards move rapidly to the places that have been designated by the General of the trenches, and which afford the best defense for the head of the works, the batteries, the communications or the flanks, or best enable them to take the sortie itself in flank or reverse. Hav­ ing lined the banquette to fire on the <3nemy, the troops form on the reverse· or ~.he trench to receive him. The workmen take arms, retain their positions, or retire with their tools, as ordered. The officers commanding the detach­ ments of workmen see that their movements are made promptly and in good order, so as to avoid all confusion in the communications. The troops that advance beyond the trenches, to repulse the sortie, must not follow in pursuit. The General takes ca1·e that they return to the trenches. before the retreat of the sortie allows the artillery of the place to open on them. When the workmen return, the officers and non-commissioned officers. of the detachments call the roll without interrupting the work, which is im. mediately resumed. The general officers of cavalry are more particularly employed in the serv­ ic
