THIRD RE-UNION AT IOWA CITY, SEPT. 23D AND 24TH, 1885.
" There is no sweeter music for our ears than that of the fife and drum, which takes us back to the days when the regiments to which we belonged, were first brigaded together in the Army of the Tennessee." GEN'L WM. W. BELKNAP.
Up to this point the " young devils " who rendered some of the above-mentioned music, have been far more quiet than was their custom; it is thought while they merit, others will read with pleas- ure the following interesting and truthful tribute, which Captain F. Y. Hedley of the 32d Illinois Infantry, delivered at the Brigade re-union at Iowa City in September, 1885.
"Now there is one who has been overlooked in the programs of these re-unions. Everybody has been heard from and eulogised but he. Year after year we have heard eloquent orators of all grades from Major General up to high Private (the latter ranks higher because there are so few of him) describe scene of battle and death, and tell of the generals they killed, and the generals

who killed them . The ladies have been duly remembered and lovingly complimented for sending us the sanitary supplies we so often failed to get-no fault of theirs, God bless them! The chap- lains have received due recognition for lifting up the voice of sup- plication on the right side of the question, and interpreting
Scripture to the confounding of the enemy. Occasionally a quar- termaster has astonished everybody by coming to the front in vin- dication of his own calling, and to whitewash the character of that much-misunderstood branch of the service, the government mule. Occasionally a sutler steps forward and endeavors to gain cheaply what he charged " the boys " very high for -- credit. An army sur- geon has even been known to claim some honor for putting down the rebellion by giving the boys an opportunity of putting down a great deal of quinine with a very little whiskey, and furnishing them unlimited quantities of blue ointment. But amid all this hurrah, one conspicuous member of the grand army has been over- looked, and as I am not the fellow, nor in any way related to him, I can afford to express my sentiments without being charged with self-glorification. I refer to the army drummer. Time was when he was the biggest man in the army, notwithstanding the fact that he was generally the smallest. If his own rank was not very high, all rank sprang from him. It took a hundred men to make a cap- tain, a thousand to make a colonel, and five thousand to make a general, but the drummer made them all. The inspiring rat-a-tat- tat of his sheepskin was heard in every village and at every cross- roads and the boys fell in behind him and marched to camp. There he had it all his own way, and he made the most of his opportun- ities. At five in the morning he began getting in his diabolical work, and all the boys, in various stages of dress and undress, got up to listen to him and yell, " here!" Then he dragged them out to the wearisome guard mounting, and then marked time for them at squad drill, company drill and battallion drill. Towards night he would break out in a fresh spot and the boys would dress up
624
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
in the best they had and go and see him pound leather on dress parade. Then, when it was late he would interrupt the seductive game of-poker, and break up the crowd at the chuck-a-luck table to listen to him and yell " here!" again-and then, mayhap, in the middle of the night, when you were wrapt in slumber, and dream- ing sweet dreams of what you called, but not irreverently, " God's country," he would sound the long roll and call you out in the darkness and storm to meet a charge of stampeded mules. In all these hideous persecutions he had a firm ally in the Captain and Colonel, who would put on extra duty, or buck and gag, anybody who did not turn out on all these various calls to do proper respect to this camp fiend. But there were times when the drummer did a service in which we all honored him. Don't you remember those long marches over dusty roads, under a tropical sun, when over. loaded with gun, knapsack and what all, with rations short and water scarce, you trudged along the dreary way until the limbs were weary and the spirit broken; disgusted with the service, with your comrade and with yourself; damning the " Confederacy " and your own government in the same breath -- don't you remember how the drummer, as tired and worn as yourself, tightened up his snares and put energy into his weary frame, and rattled merrily away? How it stirred the sluggish blood in your veins! How it braced up every muscle! What a mighty shout rose from your lips, and with what new energy you pushed forward on your way! And how you missed him those long months from Chattanooga to Atlanta, when constantly in action, and he was forbidden to play lest he might invite too much of the enemy's attention to your tent- less camps. And when the end of the campaign came, and Sher- man told the anxious friends at home, "Atlanta is ours, and fairly won!" and the drums and fifes and brass bands succeeded to the noise of whizzing bullets, screeching shells and thundering cannon, how glorious was the harmony of that music to your ears! What would have been your victory without it? Then recall that magnif-

icent panorama in May of 1865, at the close of the war, when 200,000 men of the Army of the Union marched down Pennsyl- vania Avenue in the National Capital, in presence of President and Cabinet, and bejeweled representatives of every power in Christen- dom! What would this have been without the drummer? A grand pageant without a soul-a picture without color-a flash of light- ning without the thunder peal that thrills the senses! Aye! All honor to the drummer! But may his drum evermore be silent except to call us together to exchange friendly greetings, and join in swell- ing the chorus of the Union."
"Instead of our hearing these drummers of wonder, With their ruffle and roll pulsing out into thunder, The earth is, for all of its turbulent crowd, As still as a star or the shape of a cloud."
TO THE REGIMENT:
The following circulars were sent to every member of the regi- ment, if his address was known. They were republished here, for the purpose of showing that every effort has been made to interest both officers and enlisted men in the history. Those who represent the Regimental Association have done all in their power to obtain the co-operation of the entire regiment. In a work of this magni- tude, covering four years of war, filled with so many incidents personal to every man on the rolls, those in charge of the work cannot be criticised for omissions, when those most interested failed to respond M.

ATTENTION !
FIFTEENTH IOWA VETERAN INFANTRY.
On the 28th day of October, 1885, Major H. C. McArthur, our Secretary and Treasurer, issued the following appeal, which was
626
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
sent to over five hundred ex-members of our regiment, or to all whose addresses are on our roster, and whose postoffices are known, to-wit :
Office of the Sec'y and Treas. of the Regimental Asso'n. Memphis, Mo., October 28, 1885. 5
Comrade: During the third re-union of Crocker's Iowa Brigade, held at Iowa City, September 23d and 24th, 1885, over one hun- dred of the survivors of the 15th Iowa Veteran Infantry, met in City Hall, at 2 p. m., September 24th, General Wm. W. Bel- knap in the chair, A. M. Brobst, G Co., secretary, a motion was unanimously adopted that we organize the 15th Iowa Veteran In- fantry Association. A committee on officers for the ensuing term reported General J. M. Hedrick, Ottumwa, Iowa, president; Major M. A. Higley, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, vice-president; and Major H. C. McArthur, Memphis, Mo, secretary and treasurer. It was re- solved to have compiled and published, as soon as possible, a history of our regiment, and the following comrades were elected Regi- mental and Company Historians:
For the Field and Staff-General Wm. W. Belknap, Wash- ington, D. C.
For the Medical Department-Major Wm. H. Gibbon, Char- iton, Iowa.
For Campany A-Marinus Rhynsburger, Orange City, Sioux county, Iowa.
For Company B-Wilson Lumpkin, Ft. Dodge, Iowa.
For Company C-Joshua Vancleve, Louisville, Cass Co., Neb.
For Company D-N. L. Gebhardt, Burlington, Iowa.

For the purpose of defraying incidental expenses, preparatory to publishing the Regimental History, the membership dues were fixed at fifty cents for the ensuing two years, and the members present were enrolled to facilitate matters and make more suc- cessful the grand undertaking of publishing the history of our regiment, which (excepting only one regiment, and that one a cav- alry regiment with two more companies), was the largest regi- ment Iowa sent to the front. During its service 1763 men were upon its rolls. 343 men, one-third of its original strength, were killed or died of wounds or disease. The total casualties were 1208. It is earnestly desired that every old comrade will come to the front at once, send his name, company and postoffice ad- dress, with fifty cents, to H. C. McArthur, Memphis, Mo. A regiment's history is one that every man that served in the reg- iment will be pleased to peruse, and future generations will read with pride. We are the men who made the history and it is our duty to ourselves to have it correct in our day. Every old comrade should take great pride in imparting all the informa- tion possible, and as quick as possible, that no delay be had in accomplishing this grand work. Let every comrade consider himself a committee of one, and see that he is enrolled at once, and send his company historian all the information he can of himself and others. Any comrade changing his postoffice address should at once notify the secretary, so that the change can be entered upon the records. Comrades, I urge upon you all quick action in this matter. Time is thinning our ranks. We are moving rapidly beyond the picket line, not to return, and let us be prompt in this duty, and see which company will make the most complete report in the shortest time.
Fill out enclosed blank at once and send to your company historian, and thereby assist him all you can.
Please acknowledge receipt. Your old comrade in arms,
H. C. McARTHUR, Secretary and Treasurer, Memphis, Mo.
628
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
On June 2d, pursuant to notice sent out by Secretary McAr thur, quite a number of our comrades met in Keokuk for consulta- ation and to report progress. General Belknap was expected to be present, but was detained by sickness. Reports, in the main satisfactory, had been sent in by all the historians except four.
These company histories contain, or should contain, in the first place, an accurate muster roll of every man, living or dead, who from first to last, served in the company, with copious marginal notes, touching of every important incident of their service, to- gether with their present residence. These will be carefully com- pared with the Adjutant General's reports, so that absolute accu- racy will be arrived at as near as may be. The value of this record to the living, and to the friends and relatives of our dead com- rades, will be readily seen. Very interesting papers on the Field and Staff, by General Belknap, and on the Medical Staff by Colonel Gibbon have already been received. Of themselves alone they are a valuable history in a general way of our regiment. A large amount of matter which will be of exceeding interest has been received from other sources, and is being compiled and arranged for publication by Comrade L. S. Tyler, of H Co., Keo- kuk, who was so long connected with the Adjutant's office, and to whom, or to either of the undersigned, anything which would be valuable or interesting, statistical or otherwise, should be sent.
The limits of this circular forbid a more lengthy statement. In short, it is expected that the history will cover fully four hundred pages, perhaps five hundred; that an accurate roster of all our men will be its leading feature; that it will contain all the orders, battle reports, etc., effecting our command, together with all the interest- ing incidents of our service, personal or otherwise, that can be remembered; and that if in this respect it will not be satisfactory it will be because the company historian and all others interested fail in furnishing the publication committee with the proper and very much desired data.

The book will cost subscibers $1.50 per copy.
The book will not be published until enough money is con- tributed in advance to cover the actual cost. If you want it enclose draft or money order for $1,50 to Secretary and Treasurer H. C. McArthur, Lincoln, Nebraska, (he having just moved there.) The receipt of your money will be acknowledged, and the money deposited in bank. If there is not money enough received within a reasonable time to justify the publication of the history, the sub- scriptions will be returned to each subscriber.
It is scarcely necessary for the undersigned, the supervisory officers of your association, to urge prompt action on the part of each ex-member of the 15th Iowa, if they desire the work to proceed to completion. J. M. HEDRICK,
President 15th Iowa Veteran Infantry Association.

Sec'y and Treas. 15th Iowa Infantry Association.
CIRCULAR.
15TH IOWA VOLUNTEERS ATTENTION!
To the members of the 15th Regiment Iowa Volunteers:
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, October 20, 1886.
The lamented death of General J. M. Hedrick which occurred at Ottumwa, Iowa, on Sunday, October 3d, creates a vacancy in the Presidency of the Association of the 15th Iowa Volunteers, and renders it necessary that the undersigned as Vice-President should issue this circular.
It was a cherished wish of General Hedrick that every officer and enlisted man of the Regiment should have the opportunity of having a likeness of himself in the History of the Regiment now being prepared. Consequently he made arrangements prior to his death to notify the members as follows:
The History of the Regiment will, it is expected, be ready for distribution at the Reunion of "Crockers Iowa Brigade," to be
630
History of the Fifteenth Regiment
held at Davenport, Iowa, on the third Wednesday and Thursday in September, 1887, September 21 and 22.
The size of the book will be about six by nine inches. Each officer and enlisted man who so desires, can have his likeness insert- ed in the work on payment therefor as follows:
Large size-one page-$15.00. Small size-with five or seven others on a page-$6.00.
Therefore, every officer and soldier of the Regiment who desires that his picture should appear in the book should immediately send a draft or postal note for either one or the other of the above amounts, together with a good photographic likeness of him- self, to
MAJOR H. C. McARTHUR, SECY. 15TH IOWA VOLUNTEERS,
Lincoln, Nebraska.
This must be done on or before February 1st, 1887.
Photographs received after that date will not be used.
The photographs will be copied by a prominent lithographing establishment in Chicago.
The book itself will cost $1.50 per copy and will be printed and bound in the best style. Persons having their likenesses therein will therefore pay the above price of $15.00 or $6.00 as the case may be, in addition to the price of the book.
It is suggested that photographs taken during or soon after the War be used, but that is left to the discretion of each person. The likenesses of such members as send their photographs and the money by February 1st, 1887, will be inserted in the book, but none others.
Members will therefore respond promptly on time.
The book will be historically correct, and will be very valuable, the likenesses of Brigade and Division Commanders will appear in it.
The members have been very slow and neglectful in responding to previous circulars, as to their military history during the War,
631
Iowa Veteran Volunteer Infantry.
and their civil history since. This last request is therefore made of them in order that the record may be full.
The character and interest of the book depends on the men themselves. It will be of great value, and most interesting in its details.
It is therefore expected that every member will order and pay for at least one copy. This circular will be sent to all living offi- cers and soldiers and to the friends of the dead, as far as their names can be ascertained by Major L. S. Tyler, of H Company, now at Salem, Mass.
That the work may be expedited, it is urged that all the mem- bers of the Regiment who have not done so, subscribe for the book at once, and send the amount ($1.50) to Major H. C. Mc- Arthur, Treasurer, Lincoln, Neb., immediately, whether they in- tend having their likenesses inserted or not.
