There were very few companies in any regiment that on arrival at the front averaged over 70 men; therefore the equivalent of one company was discharged for wounds; of two companies, captured and suffered in prison pens; of three companies, discharged for disability; of two companies, killed and died of wounds; of over three companies, died of disease; of over five companies, who gave their lives for the Union, or every 5th man, of six and a half com- panies wounded. This, the proof of their devotion, to maintain the Union one and inseparable.

PART XV
SONG OF CROCKERS IOWA BRIGADE. "THERE IS NO SWEETER MUSIC FOR OUR EARS." ROLL OF THE SURVIVORS, AND PRESENT ADDRESS. "OUR ROSTER THINS, AS YEARS PASS ON." TRANSFERRED TO THE GREAT ARMY ABOVE, SINCE MUSTER OUT. ROSTER OF ALL OFFICERS OF THE 15TH DURING THE WAR.
SONG OF CROCKER'S IOWA BRIGADE. AIR: BENNY HAVENS, O!
As sung at their Third Re-union, at Iowa City, Iowa, Sept. 23 and 24, 1885:
Hurrah! for our four Regiments! Hurrah! for Crocker's Boys! We'll cheer them and we'll shout for them Aloud, with joyful noise. We'll sing the songs of our brigade, And our own bugles blow Until we're ordered in, at taps, To Benny Havens, O!
CHORUS: Oh! Benny Havens, O! Oh! Benny Havens, O! Until we're ordered in, at taps, To Benny Havens, O!
In memory of our Crocker, We drop the soldier's tear; And tell our children of his name -- A name we all revere. As the winds of Western Iowa Across the Prairies blow, They'll bear the story of his fame To Benny Havens, O!
The Colonels of our old Brigade Are not forgotten now ; They swore to do their duty well, And always kept their vow. Hall was a gallent soldier; Reid never cared for show; But in a fight, fought for the right, And Benny Havens, O!
581
Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry.
Chambers and Hare have from us Our greetings when we meet; And may Shane's life be full of joy, And peaceful at retreat. We send to Abercrombie Kind words as on we go; And make Ad. Sanders feel as big As Benny Havens, O!
Here's to gallant General Hedrick- He was badly shot, you know; Atlanta's fight found him in front, Where he would always go. And when we marched on Washington, Where we were glad to go, We found him drinking iced champaign With Benny Havens, O!
Oh! here's to General Belknap -- Our leader tried and true ; As brave as any lion When there was work to do.
So, when his labor's ended, And he is called to go, He'll find his name enrolled with ours And Benny Havens, O! *
Then cheer on cheer for Belknap, The Bully Boy you know, Who jerked a " Reb " across the works In a way that wasn't slow. When we march up to Heaven, Where we all hope to go, We'll pitch his tent in camp with us And Benny Havens, O! *
The Bummers were a lively lot, You should have seen them then ; Each morning they were fifty strong, Each night two hundred men; And when they heard of first-class pork How fast their ranks would grow- Of men who gobbled grub for us And Benny Havens, O!
Dad Kneiss of the Eleventh Was always hard to beat;
*These two verses inscribed by H. C. McArthur.
582
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
He loved to forage for the boys When they were out of meat; He dug out sweet potatoes With his bayonet for a hoe, And cooked them on a stove he stole From Benny Havens, O!
The Thirteenth bragged on Limber Jim, And on Abijah Cox-
Who were sharp as any bummers, And as cunning as the fox. They captured hams and sausages, And roosters that would crow; And keep the camp awake all night With Benny Havens, O!
Dave Hornbaker and Bill Cockayne The Fifteenth will remember, On that cold Christmas march we made To Redbone, in December. They grabbed the chickens from their roosts, And dressed them in the snow; And, when they ate them, left but bones For Benny Havens, O!
What fellow in the Sixteenth Has forgotten old Al. Mix, Who, when the rebels chased him back, Put in his biggest licks? His chickens were all yellow-legs, He knew where good things grow,
And always got the very best For Benny Havens, O!
On skirmish line in rifle pits, Our soldiers fighting fell ; Of mingled dead of rank and file True history will tell. Eleventh's Foster always went Where any man could go, And with him Walker joined the ranks Of Benny Havens, O!
The men who carried the musket, The men who won the fight, They faltered not, but bravely stood In ranks by day and night. They bore our glorious banner Before a daring foe
583
Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry.
That yielded to the Stars and Stripes Of Benny Havens, O!
The Adjutants of our Brigade- God bless them all we say; For when they made their details out To hear was to obey. And when they marched on Dress Parade And stood us in a row, We surely thought them twice as big As Benny Havens, O!
Cadle in Alabama dwells, And Candee in the West; Myer and Anson don't respond- Are they at Parade Rest? Lawrence and Stidger are not here- Their orders came to go; We'll meet them at our last tattoo With Benny Havens, O!
Kinsman now works for Unele Sam, Rood in Mount Vernon dwells; Wilson in Jasper runs a bank, And Clark of Shiloh tells; King, as Presiding Elder, waits For Gabriel's trump to blow ; And Pomutz has passed in his checks To Benny Havens, O!
The fighting Fourth Division Was never known to yield; Brave Gresham fell far in the front On fierce Atlanta's field. Smith sought the midst of battle With his face toward the foe; McArthur's Scotch cap waved us on To Benny Havens, O!
The Thirty-Second Illinois Marched with us to the sea In Sixty-four and Sixty-five, Those years of Jubilee. First Minnesota Battery, How quick your shots would go To tell the Rebs that we were there, With Benny Havens, O!
584
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
We remember our McPherson- Brave, gallant, through and through; Whose memory is sacred To all the Boys in Blue. Blair was a noble soldier, Beloved by friend and foe; We'll ne'er forget them when we sing Of Benny Havens, O!
Hurrah for General Sherman, Our gallant old " Tecump;" He whooped us up when on a march And made the Rebels " hump." From Vicksburg to Savannah He fought and flanked them so, They thought it was the very Devil With Benny Havens, O!
Here's to our great commander- Victorious U. S. Grant, Who, when he moved upon their works, Had no such word as " can't." God bless the grand old hero Wherever he may go, And bring him safely home at last, To Benny Havens, O!
Hurrah for Hickenlooper, Our gallant Engineer, Who, when the boys "would whoop her" up, Knew no such word as fear. He built our bridges, cut our roads, And told us where to go; And now he'll blaze the way for us To Benny Havens, O!
The marches of our army We never can forget, In mud and dust, and heat and snow, And weather dry and wet. And when the cavalry rushed back And made their usual blow, We knew there was a fight ahead For Benny Havens, O!
The Doctors came at sick-call, And did their work up brown, With sweet blue mass and Epsom salts To wash the quinine down.
585
Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry.
With " spiritus frumenti" They soothed the soldier's woe. Oh! how they'd love to saw the bones Of Benny Haven's, O!
They say all Quartermasters Look out for number one; But when we shouted " sow belly " They knew work must be done. Dick Cadle, Ragsdale, Little Hope- We blessed with words of woe; But now wish them and Higley well With Benny Havens, O!
The Sutler watched for pay-day- Then he was always found; For when the greenbacks were paid out The Sutler was around. But when the boys went for him His heart would fill with woe To see the cheese get up and walk To Benny Havens, O!
Here's to the Army Mule, my boys, Its deeds the teamsters tell; For when they cracked their whips and swore He did his work like-well! We corduroyed the roads with rails, And he'd get up and go, And pull the hard tack through for us And Benny Havens, O!
" Right dress, there, Corporal Slonaker, You'r worse than any mule. You haven't dressed up on the right, You've acted the plumb fool." Brave Throcky said: " My time was out; They would not let me go; I'll stay now till they shoot me out With Benny Havens, O!
When we were at Lake Providence Cap. Reid was an M. D., The darkies called him Doctor, And his advice was free. He physicked them for all disease, And made their big tears flow;
586
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
And sent them full of castor oil To Benny Havens, O!
Here's to our fallen comrades, That brave, heroic band Who fought and fell on Southern fields, To save this lovely land. They've crossed the gloomy river, They're free from care and woe; Encamped on Heaven's peaceful plains With Benny Havens, O!
Here's to our wives and sweethearts- God bless you, dear old girls! Your children are our jewels, Richer than gems or pearls. Your dear arms were around us, 'Twas hard for us to go. Come! kiss us now. for Auld Lang Syne And Benny Havens, O!
Whatever be our fortunes, Wherever we may be We'll stand up for our country's flag- The flag of liberty . Unfurl it to the breezes Wherever it may blow,
And let no hand profane the flag Of Benny Havens, O!
And now the war is over, Kind Heaven has been benign, With grateful hearts we all recall The days of " Auld Lang Syne." Then pack your knapsacks, comrades, The trumpet soon will blow; Be ready for our final march To Benny Havens! O.
