COMPANY I


was raised by William Pursel at Winterest, in September and October, 1861, chiefly of men of Madison county, though some came from Adair and Guthrie. It was intended for the " First United States Lancers," a regiment proposed or favored by General Frémont, then in command of the department. The Lancers were to be commanded by a "Colonel " Pleyel, and had a camp of rendezvous at Burlington. Pursel's company reached Burlington and went into camp October 24, but the Lancers regiment had little encouragement from the War De- partment, was never fully organized, and was disbanded or went to pieces November 16, 1861. Thereupon Pursel and his men accepted a proposal to join the Fourth Cavalry, and, with the approval of the Governor, went at once to Camp Harlan, not being deterred by the fact that the day was Sunday. All the men who appear in this roster of Co. I as enlisted in the Lan- cers were in Pursel's company. When the company came to Camp Harlan it was already organized, Pursel being Captain, Lambert First Lieutenant, and Overmyer Second Lieutenant.


It was mustered in December 5, 1861, and assigned to the Second Battalion as third company.


It had 3 captains, 5 first and 4 second lieutenants, 44 non- commissioned officers, and 102 privates; or, deducting for repeti- tions by promotion in the company, it had 10 officers and 142 enlisted men, 152 in all, of whom 82 composed the original company, 3 were added from other companies, and 67 were re- cruits.


The losses from all causes were 69, leaving 83 to be mustered out on the last roll. Of the losses 4 were killed in action, I was drowned, 17 died of disease (I a prisoner of war), and 15 were discharged or transferred to the Invalid Corps for disability caused by disease or wounds. There were 9 wounded, 7 cap- tured, and 4 both wounded and captured in action.
