( Introductory Letter. )
KEOKUK, Nov. 30, 1865.
Brig. General N. B. Baker, Adjutant-General of Iowa:
GENERAL :- In obedience to the resolution adopted by the Gen- eral Assembly of the State of Iowa, approved February 23, 1864, and agreeably to circular No. 10, series 1864, from Adjutant-Gen- eral's office of the state, I have the honor to forward to you, for the information and use of your department, a copy of a history of the 15th Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry, showing, in a connected form, the part taken by that Regiment in the military operations during the war, and supplying the deficiencies of the reports of former years. The items thereof agree with the official records and books of the command, and each campaign being under a sep- arate heading, the official reports and lists of casualties, diagrams of positions, etc., belonging to it, are annexed to the same.
The completion of this detailed report has been unavoidably de- layed by reason of the constant, active service in which the Regi- ment has been engaged during the last two years, and on account of the greatly increased labor caused by the large number of new recruits received in the midst of the last great campaign of the war.
I have the honor to be, very respectfully,
Your Obedient Servant, GEO. POMUTZ, Late Lieutenant-Colonel 15th Iowa Veteran Infantry, Commanding Regiment.

History of the Fifteenth Regiment
THE 15TH IOWA INFANTRY-ARMED AND EQUIPPED AT ST. LOUIS-ARRIVED AT PITTSBURG LANDING APRIL 6, 1862- BATTLE OF SHILOH -- COLONEL H. T. REID'S REPORT-THE CASUALTIES OVER ONE-FOURTH OF THOSE ENGAGED-TEL- EGRAMS-RECOLLECTIONS-THE 11TH, 13TH, 15TH AND 16TH IOWA FORM THE IOWA, OR 3D BRIGADE, 6TH DIVISION, ARMY OF THE TENNESSEE -- A NEW FLAG.
The 15th Iowa Infantry was organized at Keokuk, and destined to enter the field on the Tennessee. It joined General U. S. Grant's army at Pittsburg Landing, where it went through its " bloody baptism" on April 6th and 7th, with a loss of over one- fourth of its number engaged in the two days fights.
It formed part of Grant's Army of the Tennessee, especially under the loved and lamented Major-General James B. McPher- son, until General Sherman succeeded General Grant in command, in the fall of 1863, from which time, as part of the old 17th Army Corps, it shared the hardships, the memorable battles, sieges, and hundreds of skirmishes, as well as the glory, of Sherman's army moving upon and capturing Atlanta, Savannah, the Carolinas, Goldsboro, and Raleigh, N. C., where Johnston's rebel army de- feated in a hundred battles during the preceding year, was finally brought to surrender April 26, 1865.
The Regiment left for St. Louis on March 19th, 1862.
The Keokuk Gate City, of Thursday, March 20th, said: The 15th Regiment gone. Yesterday was a disagreeable, stormy, gloomy day, the rain, at intervals, coming down freely. It was a bad day for the departure of the 15th, but at 3 P. M. they marched down to the boat, escorted by the 17th, and a large number of friends and citizens.
At 4 o'clock, all hands being on board the Jeannie Deans, she slowly swung around and departed amid the hearty cheers of the spectators . Many sad hearts were left behind, but every one felt

that, if ever the 15th has the opportunity, it will give a good ac- count of itself, and inscribe its name high on the roll of fame.
At Benton Barracks the Regiment received its arms, accoutre- ments and equipments.
GENERAL ORDERS NO. 39.
Headquarters 15th Iowa Volunteers, - Benton Barracks, March 29, 1862.
The 15th Regiment will move at 7 o'clock Tuesday morning next, to join General Grant on the Tennessee river. Four days' rations will be issued to-morrow morning, which will be cooked by the respective companies, to be used only while on the way to Ten- nessee. The commanders of the several companies will see that their men are ready to move at the time stated, and that their cooked rations are properly prepared.
H. T. REID, Colonel Commanding Regiment.
The Regiment embarked on the steamer Minnehaha April 1st for Savannah, where it was assigned by General Grant to General Prentiss's Division, then near Pittsburg Landing, the Regiment arriving at the latter place on the morning of April 6th.
SHILOH-COLONEL H. T. REID'S REPORT. Headquarters 15th Iowa Volunteers, 1 Near Pittsburg, Tenn., April 9, 1862. 5
To the Assistant Adjutant-General, 1st Division, Army of the Tennessee :
I have the honor to report that the 15th Regiment Iowa Volun- teer Infantry, from Benton Barracks, arrived at Pittsburg on Sun- day morning with orders from General Grant's headquarters to report to General Prentiss. Finding that his headquarters were some four miles from the landing, I proceeded at once to report to
178
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
him in person, and found a heavy fire of artillery and musketry already commenced along his lines. Orders were received from his aid to bring up my command as soon as possible, and I returned to the river for that purpose. The Regiment was rapidly disem- barked, ammunition distributed, and the men for the first time loaded their guns. We then marched to the heights in rear of the land- ing, and formed in line of battle preparatory to an advance, our right resting on the road leading from the landing to the field. At this time an order was received from a member of General Grant's staff directing me to hold the position upon which we had formed, and to post such other troops as could be found about the landing on the right of the road extending to the bluff of the creek, empty- ing into the river below the landing, in order to prevent the enemy from flanking it through the valley of this creek, and also to pre- vent all stragglers from returning from the battle-field to the land- ing, and to hold ourselves as a reserve. The Regiment was then advanced across the road to the right so as to stop the progress of the multitudes returning from the battle-field, which could only be done by threatening to shoot them down. Some of them were in- duced by threats and persuasions to fall into line, but most of them had the Bull Run story that their Regiments were all cut to pieces and that they were the only survivors, and nothing could be done with them but to stop their progress. Captain Benton placed his battery on our right, commanding the road leading from the battle- field to the river, and also commanding the ravines to our right and left.
Colonel Chambers, of the 16th Iowa, formed his Regiment on the right of Benton's Battery, resting the right of his Regiment on the bluff of the creek above mentioned. In this position we re- mained for about an hour, when an order was received from the Engineer on General McClernand's staff, by order, as he said, of General Grant, for the 15th and 16th Iowa to advance some two
179

miles, to the support of General McClernand's 1st Division on the . extreme right of our lines.
The advance was made, the 15th leading, supported by the 16th. We were led by the staff officer of General McClernand, first to the right, across a deep ravine, and through thick underbrush in a direction directly from the firing. Then one of General Grant's staff came up and said a wrong order must have been given us, in which opinion the undersigned fully concurred; and after consulta- tion of the two staff officers, the head of our column was turned to the left and we marched in search of General McClernand's Divi- sion, his staff officer showing us the way .
The road as we marched was filled with retreating artillery, fly- ing cavalry, straggling infantry, and the wounded returning from the field. We reached an open field in front of the enemy, who were concealed in a dense wood and among tents, from which other Regiments had been driven earlier in the day. Through this field the two Regiments marched, under a heavy fire from the enemy's artillery, and took position by direction of General McClernand, near the tents. A Regiment said to be from Ohio was on the field when we arrived, or came on soon after, and took position on the extreme right of the 16th. The 15th, which occupied the left, advanced upon the enemy and drove a part of them from their con- cealments among the tents and planted our colors in their midst, while the whole left wing of the Regiment advanced under a mur- derous fire of shot and shell from the enemy's artillery and an in- cessant fire from the musketry.
Our flag-staff was shot through, and our colors riddled with bul- lets. For two hours, from 10 to 12 o'clock, we maintained our position, our men fighting like veterans. The undersigned was severely wounded by a musket ball through the neck, which knocked him from his horse, paralyzed for the time, but recovering in a short time remounted and continued in command throughout the fight.

History of the Fifteenth Regiment
Fifteen of the thirty-two commissioned officers who went on the field had been killed, wounded or taken prisoners. Twenty-two offi- cers and men had been killed, one hundred and fifty-seven wounded. The Ohio regiment had left the field. The enemy were attempt- ing to outflank us on the right and left. We were unsupported by artillery or any other regiment except the gallant 16th, which had also suffered severely. It became necessary for the two regiments to retreat or run the risk of being captured, and by order of Gen- eral McClernand, the retreat was made. Portions of the regi- ments rallied and fought with other divisions later in the day and on Monday. Where nearly all fought with bravery, it might seem invidious to particularize, but I hope to do no one injustice by specially pointing out those whose personal valor, during the action, came under my notice. Lieutenant Colonel Dewey had his horse shot under him. Major Belknap was always in the right place, at the right time, directing and encouraging officers and men as coolly as a veteran. He was wounded, but not disabled, and had his horse shot under him, but remained on the field performing his duty on foot. Adjutant Pomutz distinguished himself during the action for his coolness and courage. He too was wounded. Cap- tain Kittle, of Company " A," Smith, of Company " B," Seevers, of Company "C," Madison, of Company " D," Hutchcraft, of Company " E," Cunningham, of Company "G," Day, of Com- pany " I," Hedrick, of Company "K," who was captured in a charge upon the enemy, all distinguished themselves for their gal- lantry and courage in leading forward and encouraging their men. Captain Blackmar, of Company " F," was wounded in the action and disabled. First Lieutenant Goode, of same company, also wounded. Captain Clark, of Company " H," was not in the en- gagement, having been left sick in hospital at St. Louis. Cap- tains Hutchcraft and Day were both severely wounded. Second Lieutenant Penniman, of Company " A," and Hamilton, of Com- pany "I," were killed whilst bravely performing their duty. First
18I
Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry.
Lieutenant King and Second Lieutenant Danielson, of Company "H," were both severely wounded while acting well their part, thus leaving the company without a commissioned officer. First Lieutenants Studer, of Company " B," Porter, of Company " D," Craig, of Company " E," Hanks, of Company " G," J. Monroe Reid, of Company " I," who, though wounded himself, continued in command of the company after the Captain was disabled, and the Second Lieutenant killed, and Eldredge, of Company " K," all deserve special praise for the manner in which they conducted them- selves on the field. Second Lieutenant Lanstrum, of Company " B," Brown, of Company " E," Herbert, of Company " C," and Sergeant Major Brown, who was severely wounded, conducted themselves well on the field. The non-commissioned officers gen- erally were at their posts and performed their duty. The Color Sergeant, Newton J. Rogers, who fought in the 1st Iowa at Springfield, gallantly bore our standard forward and planted it among the enemy, where it was bravely maintained and defended by portions of Company " C," Company " E," Company "I," and Company " K."
It must be remembered that this regiment had just received its arms, and that the men had never had an opportunity of learning the use of them until they came on the battlefield; that they had just landed and were attached to no brigade, and fought the enemy without the support of artillery in a position from which more experienced troops had been compelled to retire. The enemy, too, against whom we fought, the 22d Tennessee, and two Louisiana regiments are understood to be among their best troops.
We have no means of learning the loss of the enemy in this en- gagement, except from what they told some of our wounded men who were taken prisoners by them and left behind the next day, when the enemy made their final retreat, but from this source we learned that they had forty men killed in the immediate vicinity of colors and a large number wounded, While we mourn our com-
182
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
rades in arms, the gallant dead, whose lives were sacrificed on the altar of their country, we are solaced with the belief that a grate- ful people will, in after times, pay a proper tribute to their mem- ory.
To Quartermaster Higley, great credit is due for the masterly manner in which he performed the arduous duties of his office, on the field and elsewhere during the fight and after it was over in providing for the comforts of the wounded and protecting the property of the regiment.
To our Surgeon, Dr. Davis, we are under great obligations for his energy and skill in the performance of the numerous opera- tions rendered necessary. Assistant Surgeon Gibbon also per- formed valuable service in the midst of great danger on the battle field in attending the wounded there and having them carried to . our temporary hospital on board of the Steamer Minnehaha.
The Chaplain, the Rev. W. W. Estabrook, too, for the time, laid aside his sacred office and resumed the use of the surgeon's scalpel with great success, and the wounded of numerous regi- ments besides our own, shared in the skill of our medical staff.
Attached hereto will be found a list of killed, wounded and mis- sing, making a total loss of one hundred and eighty-six.
