THIRTY-SECOND INFANTRY.
The Thirty-second rendezvoused at Camp Franklin, Dubuque. It was organized in August, 1862, and originally consisted of 925 men. It was mustered into the United States service in October. and until March, 1864, was stationed in detachments at Cape Girardeau, New Madrid, Fort Pil- low, Columbus and other points along the Mississippi. In February, 1864, a portion of the regiment joined Gen. Sherman in his Meridian expedition, and also that of Gen. Banks in his successful failure up Red river. It was on this expedition, at Fort DeRussey, March 14, 1864, the regiment first met the enemy in battle, and it did nobly; again, at Pleasant Hill, April 9, it distinguished itself by fighting for two hours alone, surrounded on all sides by the enemy, captured, emphatically, but did not know it. The Union forces finally rallied and beat back the enemy to their original line,

HISTORY OF BOONE COUNTY.
when they were surprised to find the Thirty-second still occupying the po- sition it had been ordered to hold at all hazards. So completely engrossed was it with the work in hand it was totally ignorant of the real situation until relieved from their position, and the boys were surprised to know that they had for two hours been considered as captured, and removed from the field. In this engagement more than two-thirds of the regiment was put out of battle; the loss of the Fourteenth, Twenty-seventh and Thirty- second on that day was more than half that of the whole of Banks' army; and it is probably true these regiments, by their indomitable pluck, saved the entire army from demoralization and capture, for they were the only troops who held their position. Imagine the surprise of these regiments on the morning of the 10th of April, when Banks began his retreat; these regiments were ordered into line to bring up the rear, the main body having been gone several hours, thus paying the heroic Hawkeye boys, who had saved the army, lost more men than the whole army-the only troops who held their position-the very peculiar compliment of covering the retreat. It was, perhaps, well; the Iowa boys having started in at Pleasant Hill at the front, and the army having been driven around them so they came to the rear, they beat back the enemy which followed and harrassed them until they reached Simsport.
On the 14th of July the Thirty-second had a brush with the enemy at Tupelo, and repulsed them; again at Old Town creek, July 15th, it was attacked by the enemy, who were repulsed. July 22d it arrived at La Grange; Memphis, July 24th, thence went to Holly Springs, Waterford, Abbeville, Oxford, then back to Holly Springs; thence to Memphis, arriving August 30th. September and October it was constantly tramping over Mis- souri, and October 25th it started from St. Louis to Nashville; up to that date it had traveled 5,594 miles, of which 2,332 were on foot. The number of men present for duty was 359. The regiment took part in the battles around Nashville, thence went to New Orleans, and was engaged in the seige and capture of Mobile. The regiment was mustered out at Clinton, August 24th, 1865.
The list of casualities will be found on page 184.
It should be stated here that from the 30th of November, 1862, the reg- iment was divided, one detachment going to New Madrid under Colonel Scott, the other to Cape Girardeau under Major Eberhart-the latter comprising companies A, D, F and G. From thence to March 4th the his- tory of these detachments was as distinct as that of two regiments. Major Eberhart was sent to Arkansas and thence, Angust 12, 1863, on the White River expedition. A side shute was made up Little Red, where two prize steamers were captured and a pontoon bridge destroyed, severing Marma- duke's army, one-half being on either side. One of the prizes (the Kas- kaskia) was in charge of company D, and at West Point the enemy at- tempted to recapture the steamer, but were driven back. The next move was to Duval's Bluff and Bayou Metaire, where the boys entered the ene- my's works with a rush, drove them out across the bayou, and burned their bridge. They next moved to Brownsville; thence to Little Rock, December 19. January 29, 1864, the detachment was ordered to Memphis, arriving February 5; thence to Vicksburg, arriving February 9, where -March 4th-they were reunited to the other detachment, an event which was the occasion of a complimentary congratulatory order from Col- onel Scott, and the boys were happy.

FORTY-FOURTH INFANTRY.
(ONE HUNDRED DAYS.)
This regiment was organized under proclamation of the president, April 21, 1864, calling for one hundred thousand men to serve for one hundred days, in fortifications, or wherever their services might be required. This was for the purpose of relieving the veteran troops from such duty, that they might be sent forward for more effective service. Under proclamation of the governor, four days later, the valiant people of the State, responded promptly to fill the quota of ten thousand demanded of them, although far ahead of all requisitions made by the government.
