The world never witnessed such an uprising of the masses, such a unanimity of sentiment, such a willingness to sacrifice men and money, as was shown by the people of the States of the North from the time the rebels fired upon Fort Sumter, in April, 1861, until the surrender of treason's army, in 1865; and no county in all the Northern States made a bolder, clearer or better record than Cedar.
Having thius noticed the spirit of patriotism that fired the hearts of the sons and daughters of Cedar, the sacrifices and readiness of the wealthier classes and of the tax payers to sustain the Union, we come now to the volunteer soldiery. And of these what can we write? What words can our pen employ that would do justice to their heroic valor-to their unequaled and unparalleled valor ? Home and home comforts, wives and little ones, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, were given up for life and danger on the tented fields of battle, for exposure, disease and death at the cannon's mouth. They reckoned none of these, but went out with their lives in their hands to meet and conquer the foes of the Union, maintain its supremacy and vindicate its honor and integrity. We can offer no more fitting tribute to their patriotic valor than a full and complete record, so far as it is possible to make it, that will embrace the names, the terms of enlistments, the battles in which they engaged, etc. It will be a wreath of glory encircling every brow and a memento which each and every one of them earned in defense of their country's honor, integrity and unity.

HISTORY OF CEDAR COUNTY.
AN UNJUST DRAFT.
In face of the fact that men volunteered from the county by hundreds, that to every call for volunteers there was a ready and willing response, it seems strange that the odium of a draft should have been ordered ; but a draft was ordered, nevertheless. In making up their accounts at the War Department, a mistake occurred, which showed a deficit of 114 men. To the credit of the people of the county, be it said, that subsequent investigations revealed the fact that the deficit did not exist, that the quota of the county had been more than filled, and that the War Department had committed an error that deeply wounded the patriotic pride of the people. The discovery of this error was not made, however, until after the draft had been ordered and the men drawn.
The enrolhnent, quota and deficit in the several townships, as reported in the order commanding the draft, was as follows :

Of this draft, the Advertiser, of October 6th, says : " The draft has come at last, and many breathe easier; but it is not so with all, for there are some whose worst fears are realized. They are drafted. We sympathize with them, and hope they may return from their year's fighting and live to a good and happy old age. Most of those who are drafted take it quite coolly; and are preparing to go or send substitutes; but there are some, we hear, who have "skedaddled.' It may not be known to them that, in thus fleeing from the draft, they forfeit their right to hold office. This is right. Men who are not willing to bear their share of the burdens of Government should have no voice in administering it. Dayton and Inland Townships have raised volunteers to release them from the effects of the draft."
The war ended, peace concluded and the Union preserved in its integrity, those sons of Cedar who had volunteered their lives in defense of the unity of the Government who were spared to see the triumph of patriotism over treason, returned to their homes to receive grand ovations of welcome and tributes of honor from friends and neighbors who had eagerly and zealously followed them wherever the fortunes of war directed. Exchanging their soldier's uniform for citizen's dress, they fell back to their old vocations-on the farm, at the forge, the bench, in the shop, and whatever else their hands found to do. Brave men, are honorable always; and no class of Cedar's citizens are entitled to greater respect and consideration than the volunteer soldiery, not only because they were soldiers in the hour of the country's peril, but because, in their association with their fellow citizens, their walk is upright and their honesty and character without reproach.

FIFTH INFANTRY.
Company A, of the Fifth Iowa, was the first enlisted in Cedar County for the suppression of the Rebellion. This company was formed from a military organization exist- ing prior to the breaking ont of the Rebellion, and was ready for the First Regiment, but for various reasons was crowded out, and was finally assigned to the position of Co. A, of the Fifth, in consequence of not being able to secure the position they desired.
The regiment was mustered in at Burlington, July 15, 1861, aud ordered to Keokuk August 2, from which point they were sent into Missouri for a few days in pursuit of bushwhackers, after which they were sent to St. Louis, and from thence ordered to Jefferson City, Mo., and from there to Boonville, Mo .; thence followed the rebel army under Price to Springfield, Mo., and on their return en- camped at Syracuse until the following February, when they were moved across the country to St. Louis, and thence by transport to Cairo, where they remained a few weeks and were transferred to Cape Girardeau. They were then marched to New Madrid, where they had a skirmish with the enemy, and the first man from Cedar County, private Wm. Beaver, was killed. After the fall of New Madrid, they crossed the Mississippi and uiarched to Tiptonville to intercept and capture rebels, who were attempting to escape from Island No. 10. They were then ordered back to New Madrid, thence to a point above Fort Pillow, on the Mississippi, thence by way of Cairo and the Tennessee River to Pittsburg Landing, to take part in the operations before Corinth.
Upon the evacuation of Corinth, they followed the rebels to Rienzi, and afterward remained in camp at Clear Creek, Rienzi and Jacinto until Sept. 18, 1862, when they started for Iuka, where, on the 19th, they took part in the battle of Iuka, where Co. A went into the fight with forty-three men, and had twenty-seven killed and wounded. It was here that the regimeut distinguished itself, so that it was complimented very highly by the Generals commanding. The position they held was in support of a battery, which, in consequence of a superi- ority of numbers of the enemy, was at one time captured, but rallying to the rescue the Fifth Regiment retook the battery with the terrible loss above mentioned. They
returned to Jacinto on the 21st of September, thence moved to Corinth to take part in the battle at that place. Engaged in the pursuit of the rebels after that battle, they remained in camp at Corinth until November, when they joined the expedition against Vicksburg, going by war of Holly Springs to Oxford, thence to Memphis. where they remained in camp until Spring of 1863.
From here they were ordered to Ilelena, thence in the Yazoo Pass expedition. After their return to Ilelena, they moved to Milliken's Bend, and through Louisiana to a point below Vicksburg, and thence by gunboat to a point below Grand Gulf, Miss. From here they were ordered to Raymond and Jackson, and back to the battle of Champion Hill, wh re Co. A lost ten in killed and wounded.
After this thev engaged in the pursuit of the rebels to Vicksburg, and took part in the charge on the 22d of May.
They then took their places in the seige of Vicksburg, where they remained until the last of June, when they were ordered to Black River, to confront thic enemy com- ing to the relief of Vicksburg.
They returned to Vicksburg July 1, and remained in camp until Sept. 1, when they were ordered to Helena for the purpose of joining the expedition against Little Rock, but were from there ordered to Chattanooga by way of Corinth, marching a considerable portion of the distance. They were then transferred to the Seventeenth Corps, and took part in the battle of Chickamauga, where the regiment lost thirty men in killed and wounded and eight officers and seventy-six men taken prisoners, leaving only sixty- five men in the regiment who answered at roll call that evening. They afterward went down the river to Stevenson and Huntsville, Ala., where they remained all Winter. In April, 1864, the veterans of the regiment wenthome on furloughis, and on their return were placed on the railroads to do guard duty, being most of the Summer at Kingston, Ga. They pursued the rebel Gen. Wheeler in his last raid to the rear of Sherman, in June, 1864, traveling during the time nearly nine hundred miles, and being three weeks without blankets or change of clothing.
About the last of July, 1864, the non-veterans of the regiment were mustered out of service, leaving 180

THE ELEVENTH INFANTRY
contained an entire Company (E) from Cedar County and a large portion of Company D, and several of Com- pany K.
They enlisted in October, 1861, and went to St. Louis the November following. They speut the Winter in the in- terior of Missouri, doing valuable service in capturing rebels and supplies of horses, food and ammunition.
In March, 1862, the regiment moved to Tennessee, and took an active part in the battle of Shiloh, having forty- five killed, including those who died of wounds after- ward, and 180 wounded. Gen. McClernand, commanding the division, spoke in his official dispatch in the highest

terms of the conduct of the regiment in that aclion. The Spring and Summer following were spent in the siege of Corinth and occupation of Bolivar.
The Eleventhi was in Gen. Ord's column at Iuka, and at the second battle of Corinth, taking part in the pursuit of Price and Van Dorn to Ripley, immediately thereafter.
At the famous assault on Vicksburg, May 22, 1863, the Eleventh with other regiments of the brigade took active part. On this memorable occasion, Maj. Foster of this regiment, who was in command of the skirmishers, re- ceived favorable commendation from superior officers for the many deeds of valor displayed by the brave boys under his command.
From Vicksburg, the regiment went to Mechanicsville, Miss., thence to Snyder's Blnff, May 31, 1863, where they remained until June 4th. They were then ordered back to Vicksburg, where they stayed till the 23d of the sanie month, when they were removed to Fox Plantation, Miss., thence to Jackson, thence to Black River Bridge, July 13th. Two days later, they went to Clinton, Miss., tlience returned to Black River Bridge and back once more to Vicksburg, July 28th, remaining until the 21st of August, when they moved to Monroe, La., thence to Bayou Macon and back again to Vicksburg, where they remained most of the time until February 18, 1864, when they went to Meridian, Miss., thence to Canton, March 1, and back to Vicksburg, where they remaincd nntil March 13th.
From Vicksburg the regiment came to Davenport, on veteran furlough, and remained from March 22, 1864, to April 25th, when, once more shouldering their guns, they started for the scene of strife, and, going by the way of Cairo. Ill., Paducah, Ky., Clifton, Tenn .. and Huntsville, Ala., arriving at Kenesaw Mountain, Ga., June 16, 1864, and were before Atlanta from July 17th to August 25th, from there moved to Fost Point, Ga., September 9, 1864, and were mustered out of service at Lonisville, Ky., July 15, 1865, and disbanded at Davenport.
