On the 25th of May, Col. Dutton, commanding the brigade, received orders to reconnoitre the left of the enemy's position, and designated the Twenty-first as the regiment for the work, but night coming on he returned the regiment to its camp. On the day fol- lowing, the 26th, Col. Dutton, with the brigade, again moved, with orders to push the reconnoissance until stopped by the enemy. After an advance of nearly two miles the enemy was found strongly intrenched. Line of battle was at once formed, but as the skir- mishers were becoming engaged, Col. Dutton, who was then, as usual, on the skirmish-line, was mor- tally wounded. The command devolved upon Lieut .- Col. Burpee, who was finally obliged to withdraw his command.
Maj. Crosby, in his report, speaks of the death of Col. Dutton as follows : " Col. Dutton died from the effects of his wounds June 5th. He graduated at

MILITARY HISTORY.
West Point in 1861, Kilpatrick, Custer, O'Rourke, Benjamin, and Farquhar being among his classmates. Bold and chivalrous, with a nice sense of honor, a judgment quick and decisive, an unwavering zeal in his chosen profession, he was in every respect a thorough soldier. ... By his companions in arms he will never be forgotten, and to them his last resting- place will be as a shrine, commemorating the friend- ships which not the rude shock of war nor lapse of time can blight or destroy."
On the 3d of June the regiment participated in the battle of Cold Harbor, Va., and behaved with great steadiness throughout the whole battle, receiving well-merited compliments from division and brigade commanders. The regiment sustained a loss of forty- seven officers and men.
On the 9th of June, Lieut .- Col. Thomas F. Burpee was mortally wounded while going the rounds as brigade officer of the day. Lieut .- Col. Burpee had borne his part with distinguished valor during the Bermuda Hundred campaign, and his coolness and good judgment at the battles of Drury's Bluff and Cold Harbor will not soon be forgotten by his com- rades. While in command of his regiment he was always able and efficient, discharged witlı prompti- tude every duty, particularly if concerning the care and welfare of his men, by whom he was much loved and respected.
The regiment remained in front of Petersburg until the 3d of September, performing picket duty and en- gaged in skirmishes with the enemy. Its loss while thus engaged was forty-nine officers and men. It was then ordered within the line of defenses at Bermuda Hundred, and remained in that position until Sep- tember 28th, when orders were received preparatory to a movement.
At nine A.M. of that day they marched to the James River and crossed on pontoon-bridges. It then took up its position and proceeded with its division to the assault on Fort Harrison, and on the day following (29th) Fort Harrison, with its garrison and armament of twenty-two pieces of heavy ordnance, fell into the hands of the Union army. The fighting was of an extremely severe character, but the Twenty-first did not fail to add new laurels to its wreath.
This was the last general engagement for the regi- ment, which remained in service, performing the usual routine of camp and picket duty.
Lieut .- Col. Brown, in his report dated April 10, 1865, speaks of Capt. Jennings, who was mortally wounded : " No truer patriot or braver soldier than he has fallen in defense of the nation's life. He fell as a soldier would wish, in the hour of victory, leaving a record for his comrades to emulate."
Nothing of importance occurred subsequently, and the Twenty-first was mustered out of the service on the 16th day of June, 1865, leaving a record for bravery, fidelity, and general good conduct of which Connecticut may well be proud.
The regiment participated in the following engage- ments :
Fredericksburg, Va., Dec. 13, 1862. Loss in wounded, 1 commissioned officer, 5 enlisted men. Total loss, 6.
Suffolk, Va., April and May, 1863. Loss in killed, 2 enlisted men; wounded, 5 enlisted men. Total loss, 7.
