FOURTH CAVALRY
Company B of the Fourth Cavalry was mainly recruited at Delhi, this county. having seventy-nine in the regiment. The serious business of the regi- ment began January 14, 1863, and continued For over three months, the com- mand being stationed near Helena, Arkansas. The regiment oveupied the advance in Sherman's corps while moving from Milliken's Bend to Vicksburg.
The Federal lines were thrown around the rear of Vicksburg on the 18th day of May, 1863, under command of Gen. U. S. Grant, who found himself in command of about sixty thousand men-cut off from supplies and his rations nearly exhausted-for fortifications of Haines' and Snyder's bluffs on the
132
HISTORY OF DELAWARE COUNTY
Yazoo River effectually cut off all communication between the right flank and the supply boats on the Mississippi, while General Price rendered land trans- portation impracticable.
On the evening of the 18th of May, General Grant determined to send the cavalry to reconnoiter in the direction of Haines' and Snyder's bluffs, and if possible, open communication with gunboats on the Yazoo River. The Fourth Iowa was ordered on this expedition and started early on the morning of the 19th but moved very slowly, as they were constantly picking up the foot-sore and disabled soldiers of the rebel army that had escaped from the battlefields of Champion's Hill and Black River Bridge; and by 2 o'clock P. M. they had only made about twelve miles, reaching a point where the Brownsville road crossed the one on which the column was marching. The reports received from captured soldiers and negroes placed a command of some four thousand rebels a short distance up the Brownsville road and estimated the garrison at Snyder's Bluff at four thousand more, which would make it extremely hazardous for a. small command to eross the Brownsville road. At this juncture Colonel Swan. commanding the regiment, determined to return. Seeing the regiment reversed and marching back was the first intimation Captain Peters had of the move- ment, as he was at the rear. He immediately hastened to Colonel Swan and endeavored to dissuade him, justly arguing that they could not return and make a satisfactory report, without at least attempting to execute the instructions. Unable to change the colonel's determination, he urged to be allowed to take his old company and make an attempt to look into the rebel fortifications. His offer was at first refused, and the proposition looked upon as wildly desperate and reckless; but, after moving baek for a mile or two, the colonel finally con- sented, agreeing to throw his regiment into line, await his return, and render what assistance the occasion might require. Captain Peters then rode to Com- pany B and called for volunteers, when the whole company, to a man, turned out. Ile selected only such horses as in his judgment would carry their riders ten miles at a fast gait and found but twenty-three men, his two lieutenants and Lieut. S. P. Kelly, of Company A, who volunteered to take his place in the ranks and accompany the expedition. They started at the gallop and in twenty minutes came upon a convalescent camp containing some two or three hundred rebel soldiers. They next surprised and captured an Irishman, in citizen's dress and well mounted. The captain charged him with being a rebel soldier and belonging to the fortifications and offered him his liberty and a free pass to St. Louis if he would conduet him into the fortifications by a route that would avoid the rebel pickets. This proposition was accepted and as the colummm had all the time been riding at a fast gallop. they were soon at the foot of Snyder's Bluff. The guide here pointed out a by-path, through the brush and timber. capable of the passage of troops in single file. Entering this path, the party soon arrived at the top of the bluff and came out upon a broad military road leading into the fortifications and formed in a column of fours, and at a sharp gallop turned the corner leading into the fortifications, sloping from their feet gradually down to the Yazoo River. The guard left by the evacuating rebels endeavored hastily to form a line across the road, but the column of cavalry charged down upon them so suddenly that not a shot was fired, and in an instant they threw down their arms and surrendered. The cavalrymen were imme-

diately dismounted and dispersed in every direction in squads of threes and fours, so that in less than twenty minutes the whole rear guard of evacuating rebel forces were moving, disarmed. toward the landing on the Yazoo River. An unsuccessful attempt was then made to signal the gunboat DeKalb, lying some four miles down the river. After a few moments, Captain Peters ordered Lieutenant Clark and two men to go down the river and communicate with the gunboat, and direeting Lieutenant Parsons to look after the prisoners, he took three men and started for Haines' Bluff, situated some three miles up the river. Here he found no troops, and after counting the guns and making ob- servations until dark, he returned to the landing at Snyder's Bluff. The gun- boat DeKalb had arrived, the prisoners were received on board, the eavalrymen were eating their supper, the first "square meal" for fourteen days, and Captain Peters was taken from the saddle and carried to the officers' deck, where a sumptuous repast was waiting. After eating supper-in regular gun- boat style-and directing an orderly boat to communicate the capture to the transports on the Mississippi, he and his men remounted and started back to join their command, but found it gone. Continuing their march they arrived at 2 o'clock A. M. at the camp they had left the previous morning. Here Captain Peters learned that Colonel Swan had reported to General Grant the failure of his expedition and that Captain Peters and his small command bad been either killed or captured. He immediately mounted a fresh horse, rode to General Grant's headquarters and reported the true state of things and by daylight in the morning the mule teams were bringing army stores from the Chiekasaw Bayou to feed the sixty thousand hungry soldiers.
The Fourth (under command of Lieutenant Colonel Peters) accompanied General Sherman on his expedition to Meridian in February, 1864, in which it had a daily skirmish for twelve successive days, and performed many daring exploits near Memphis and at Tupelo in the following months. The regiment was transferred to Arkansas in September, whence the command marehed into Missouri under General Mower, and had a severe engagement with Price's forces near Independence. In October, General Pleasanton, by general orders, au- thorized the regiment to place on its colors "Big Blue," and "Osage," the Fourth having done especial service in both engagements. In a subsequent order, General Pleasanton said: "Winslow's brigade of cavalry being about to leave for another department, the major general commanding takes this occasion not only to express his regrets in separating from such glorious troops, but also to recall the splendid manner in which this regiment fought at Osage, capturing five pieces of artillery from the enemy, with a large number of pris- oners, and earrying. by a daring charge, the most important and conspicuous position on that brilliant field." The regiment returned to St. Louis Novem- ber 29th. In March. 1865, the regiment was again at the front, Colonel Peters having rejoined and taken command. March 31st, the regiment repulsed an attack by two regiments of the enemy, driving them two miles. April 2d, the regiment captured the defenses of Selma and the city itself, including 1,500 prisoners, besides an immense amount of war material. The regiment was present at the taking of Columbus, Georgia, April 16th, capturing one of the strongest defenses of that city. The command then marched toward Forsyth, destroying railroad property until the 21st, where the armistice coneluded its

labors and the regiment returned to Macon, thenee to Atlanta, where it was mustered out Angust 8, 1865.
As a brilliant, dashing and successful cavalry officer, Colonel Peters had few if any superiors in the western army, and successfully led many a perilous expedition which, though necessary, required an officer possessing cool judg- ment, bravery and indomitable pluck to execute. A universal favorite among his associates and companions in arms, he was nevertheless often considered reckless and foolhardy, although he never failed to prove, by his oft-repeated successes, that he was led by judgment rather than impulse. Such was his popularity with the soldiers of the command there he could always secure more volunteers than he wished to accompany him on any extra hazardous expedi- tion, no matter how dangerous or hopeless it might seem. This regiment was mustered out at Atlanta, Georgia, August 8, 1865.

SIXTH CAVALRY
The Sixth Cavalry was recruited in 1862, and was sent to Minnesota imme- diately after being mounted and drilled where it marched under General Sully against the Indians. During August, 1863, three companies of the Sixth, under command of Major House, while on detached service, undertook to hold a camp of 1,500 Indians until word could be sent to the main foree, but this proved to be almost too large a job for the men, for the Indians were break- ing away just as General Sully came up with Col. D. S. Wilson at the head of the Sixth and Colonel Furnas in command of the Second Nebraska. The battle began instantly, two companies of the Sixth going through the eamp, and Colonel Furnas joining Major Ilonse. The engagement lasted till after dark, when the bugles sounded the recall. The Indians fled during the night, leaving everything but their ponies and arms behind. The next day (5th), the command destroyed half a million pounds of dried meat, three hundred lodges, and other valuable property. Over a hundred dead Indians were found on the field. Inly 28, 1864, the Sixth had a hand. in the engagement with the Indians at Tahkahokntah, where the Indians occupied a secure position on sonie steep and rocky bluffs partly covered with timber. The Indians threw ont mounted skirmishing parties eight or ten miles in advance of this position. which were driven back to the bluffs. The Indians were then shelled out of their position in the rocks and forced to retreat with considerable loss. August 8th, the regiment, which had camped the previous night on the Little Missouri, had a skirmish with a heavy force of Indians, and on the following day got a chance to charge them a distance of over two miles, killing a considerable num- ber. The regiment remained in Dakota until winter, bivouacked at Sioux City until spring and was mustered out October 17, 1865.
