The four companies were gotten ready instantly, and were landed by surf boats belonging to the fleet. The men were drawn up in a line of battle at once, then de- ployed in a line of skirmishers, and commenced the advance upon Fort Morgan, from which they were re- lieved by the Ninety-fourth Illinois, and were sent to do picket duty. The balance of the regiment arrived on the 10th, and were relieved from picket duty by the Thirty-eighth Iowa, and moved down to the front, within easy range of Fort Morgan.
From the 12th to the 18th, the men were busy in throwing up intrenchments, mounting siege guns and mortars. From the 19th to the 22d, the works were pushed rapidly forward. Gen. Page dropped shot and shell among the men too frequently for comfort. The works were completed on the night of the 22d-sixteen mortars, ten siege guns and eight field pieces having been planted. The boys had thrown up immense " barbettes " entirely across the peninsula, under cover of which the guns were hauled into position.
The bombardment of the fort began early in the morn- ing of the 23d of August, both from the land and naval batteries, and was kept up during the day, provoking no answering shot from the fort. Toward evening, the fire of the Northern forces was not so frequent as earlier in the day; but about 9 o'clock, the citadel of the fort was discovered to be on fire, and the batteries commenced shelling more furiously than ever.
About 1 o'clock, the enemy attempted to signal their willingness to surrender, but the signals were not under- stood, and the firing continued without cessation, unti the morning of the 24th, when two men were discovered on the parapets, waving a white flag, and at 2 P. M., the fort was in possession of the Union forces. The balance of the month was spent in recovering from the fatigues of the bombardment. Sept. 1st, the men moved down the point and went into camp, and on the 7th, started for New Orleans on board the Josephine. Arrived at New Orleans at daylight of the 9th. Received orders to re- port at Morganza, La. Arrived in Morganza on the 10th, and remained there until the 30th, doing guard duty.
The men did scouting duty the first ten days in Octo- ber, in the region of the Atchafalaya, and in the vicinity, and on the 11th started up the river on board the "Ne- braska." Arrived at White River landing on the 15th. Made a landing on the 16th, and on the 17th marched on board the J. S. Pringle, and started up White River. Arrived at Duvall's Bluff on the 18th, went ashore and encamped, and from the 19th to the 31st remained in camp, performing camp duties.
From the 1st to the 7th of November, the men were occupied in building fortifications around the town.
On the 8th, the boys held an election. All the votes were polled early, and resulted in 412 for Lincoln and 32 for Mcclellan. On this day, all the sick soldiers and goods were shipped to Brownsville. Commenced the march on the 9th. The weather was very rough, the men marclı- ing a quarter of a mile within the water, waist deep. Reached Brownsville on the 10th, and went into camp. From the 11th to the 20th, the men remained in camp. It rained all the time, and there was nothing to break the monotony, until the arrival of George Smith, from Scott County, with sanitary stores for the regiment. Lay in camp until the 30th, when the march was again taken up. Went seven miles, marched into Duvall's Bluff on the 1st of December, and took up quarters in the bar- racks previously occupied by the Seventh Missouri. The was occupied until the 15th, roofing the barracks. On the 16th, all the troops were paraded on the prairie west of the camp, to witness the execution of Private George W. Prince, of Company B, Twenty-second Ohio Infantry, found guilty of deserting and bushwhacking. The reg- iments were inspected on the 18th, by Col. Black, of the Thirty-seventh Illinois Veterans. The men were engaged in building fortifications, from the 19th to the 31st. A number of men were sent up the Arkansas, on the 21st, as guards for a number of steamers.
January, 1865. Lay in camp from the 1st to the 5tlı, and on that day four companies started down the river; the balance of the troops started on the 7th, and dis- embarked at Kennerville, La., on the 11th, and went into camp in a " mud hole." Remained in camp until the 1st of February. On the 24th, the men turned in their, old Enfield rifles, and drew new Springfield muskets. Were in camp until the 15th, under marching orders, and at that date went on board the steamer St. Mary's. Arrived at Ft. Morgan on the afternoon of the 16th, and at 9 P. M., weighed anchor and stood out to sea. Dis- embarked and went into camp, at Florida Point, close to the cemetery, where so many patriotic soldiers lie buried.

Remained in camp until March 2d, when the division was inspected by Gen. Steele. On the 5th, Gen. C. C. Andrews assumed command of the division, and Col. Moore of the brigade. Rev. P. P. Ingalls, of Mt. Pleas- ant, Iowa, addressed the regiment, in behalf of the Iowa State Orphan Asylum. The regiment donated over $6,- 000 to the asylum.
Every preparation was made for an extensive cam- paign; and on the 11th, got into line, and reached Pen- sacola about sundown, having marched fifteen miles. There they remained until 20th, when they again took up their line of march to Mobile.
The following letter to the Davenport Gazette contains a full history of the march-the siege and assault of Blakely. It was written by Lieut. Moore, and published at the time indicated by the date:
CAMP OF INVESTING FORCES, NEAR BLAKELY, ALA., April 9, 1865. )
Editor of Gazette: After a rather extended period of waiting and preparations, we have again entered into the merits of an active campaign. On Monday, the 20th of March, our division of the Thirteenth Army Corps broke camp at daylight, and moved out from Pensacola. Fla., on a road running parallel with the Mobile & Great North- ern Railroad, our course being due north. Marched about ten miles and went into camp, followed by Gen. Hawkins' division of colored troops. On the 21st, we again moved forward, and marched all day in a heavy rain. On the 22d, we lay in camp; 23d, we resumed our line of march, and went into camp about 2 o'clock P. M. On the 24th, we were compelled to lie in camp nearly all day, while large fatigue parties were sent on in advance, to build a corduroy bridge over a creek. About 5 o'clock in the morning, the bridge being completed, we broke our camp, and crossing the bridge, went into camp on the oppo- site side. On the 25th, we moved at daylight; and about 10 o'clock we heard skirmishing in front, which contin- ued throughout the entire day. In the evening, I learned that our cavalry had been attacked by a small force of rebels, commanded by Brig. Gen. Clanton, the result of which was, the rebs got beautifully whipped, our cavalry taking Gen. Clanton himself (who was severely wounded), with 16 of his officers and 100 of his men prisoners.
On the 26th, we marched to' within three miles of Pol- lard-a station on the Mobile & Great Northern Railroad. The Second Brigade of our division went into the town, . where they captured a telegraph operator, together with his instruments. They tore up three miles of railroad track, burnt the commissary building, and then returned to camp. A portion of our cavalry, consisting of detach- ments of the First Florida, Second Maine, Second New York and Second Illinois, joined us at this point, having just returned from a raid up toward Montgomery. They went as far up the railroad as Evergreen Station, where they captured two trains, loaded with supplies for the garrison at Mobile, on board of which were 250 rebel soldiers, all of whom were taken prisoners.
On the 27th, moved out upon a road running nearly west, and leading to a place called Stockton, situated upon the Teusos River. About two miles out from Pol- lard, we came up to the cavalry camp, where a large flock of Ethiopia's sable sons and daughters had col- lected together from the surrounded country-gray- headed men and silver-haired women, and the middle aged and youth of both sexes waited patiently for the moment to come, when they would start out on their journey to the land of freedom. Their beaming faces were express- ive with the joy that thrilled their inmost souls, and many were the blessings which they showered upon us, as we passed them. We marched about twelve miles this day, and camped at Canoe Station, where we took eleven more rebels in out of the wet, most of whom had just returned from Rock Island, and had not yet been armed. To-day, the troops were placed upon half rations, and were out of tobacco, also. There was a good deal of growling done, which was considerably abated, owing to the liberality of the cavalry, who, on their raid up to Evergreen, had captured a large quantity of the weed, which they threw from their horses to our boys, upon learning that the weed was not to be had in the Twen- tieth, for either love or money. On the 23th, we had to go back about three miles, and build corduroy roads for our teams and artillery, they having got mired the day before. We went to work with a will, and about noon, the 20th, were relieved, and ordered to camp again-the brigade commander giving us a reason for relieving us that we had already done more than three times as much work as any other regiment, and because we were willing to work. That was no reason why we should be imposed upon; consequently, we returned to camp, and
were followed by the other regiments of the brigade, who, seeing us returning, considered themselves relieved ; but unfortunately for them, however, this was not the case, and the result was, that they returned and com- pleted their work, which they did in a very suitable manner. On the 29th, we moved out at daylight ; and after we had marched about four miles, we were halted, and had the following complimentary order read to us, which conclusively shows that the Twentieth Iowa is doing now and always does do its duty.
HEADQUARTERS SECOND DIVISION, THIRTEENTH ARMY CORPS, IN THE FIELD, March 23, 1865.
General Order, No. 5.
1. The General commanding appreciates the ready and generous efforts of the troops in promoting this difficult march. These labors assure future success, and every patriot will feel grateful to the soldiers that have endured them. The General particularly thanks Lient. Col. J. B. Leake, commanding the Twentieth Iowa Volunteers, for the valuable and rapid service of his regiment this morning, showing, by the amount done, how much can be accomplished by officers giving their personal interest and attention to their duty.
By order of Brig. Gen. C. C. Andrews. (Signed,) GEORGE MONROE, Ass't Adjt. Gen.
On the 30th, we were busy all day in corduroying the roads, the trains being unable to proceed any length with- out it, and our progress was on that account very slow, and only succeeded in passing over six miles of road. On the 31st we had much better roads, and moved along very lively, and marched a distance of eighteen miles, camp- ing near Stockton, Ala., within a short distance of the Tensas River. We did not move until late in the day of the 1st, and consequently did not get into camp until about 10 o'clock at night. We camped at a railroad sta- tion where our cavalry had a heavy skirmish with the enemy, defeating them and taking seventy-seven of them prisoners. On Sunday, the 2d, we broke camp and moved at 4:30 A. M., and marched until daylight, when we heard heavy firing in front, and soon learned that our cavalry had again engaged the enemy. About 9 o'clock, we arrived upon the field of action, and immediately our brigade was formed in line and every one thought we were about to engage in a general battle. The ambulances were busy going to and from the front, wounded men were being brought back, and everything betokened an approaching scene of carnage and slaughter. Our men were ordered to lie down, and loud talking was stopped. About 10 o'clock, we moved in toward the front in columns of companies. After moving up three or four hundred yards, we were halted, and Companies B, G, E, K and D were thrown out as skirmishers, and moved for- ward, the balance of the regiment being held in reserve. The enemy shelled our skirmish line considerably, but without doing us any damage. We moved up about two miles and halted ; we were in plain sight of their fortifi- cations; threw skirmishers in the rifle pit, and the invest- ment of the fortifications of Mobile, on the eastern shore of the bay, was completed. We had a long and toilsome march. The country through which we passed was com- paratively a wilderness, the people generally rude and uneducated, and believing a Yankee to be a devil incar- nate. They looked upon our coming as a veritable plague. Our regiment was relieved on the evening of the 2d, from the skirmish line, by the Thirty-fourth Iowa, and while relieving us they had two nien severely wounded. On the 3d, we commenced entrenching, and are now within nine hundred yards of their forts, and the. regiment is encamped within easy range of their guns. The consequence is they shell our camp every little while, much to our annoyance and di gust. On the even- ing of the 4th, our brigade sent forward a detail to advance our line of pits, which they succeeded in doing in the face of a heavy fire of musketry and shells, with the loss of only one man from the One Hundred and Fourteenth Ohio, who was slightly wounded in the left arm. Yester- day morning we were aroused very suddenly and ordered into line in our reserve pits, the enemy having commenced shelling our lines furiously. An attack was feared, and while moving up to our position, private George Balton, of Company K, was severely wounded by a musket ball. He is from LeClaire. His wound, though severe, is not dan- gerous. He is the only one in the Twentieth yet injured. Last night the Spanish Fort at the mouth of the Tensas River, which Gen. Granger has been investing for some time, was taken by assault, and witli it 500 prisoners and about twenty pieces of artillery. This will compel the evacuation or surrender of the forts around Blakely,

which we are now investing, and open the doors of Mobile to our monitors.
THE ASSAULT ON FORT BLAKELY.
April 10, 1865. I have re-opened my letter, in order to transmit glorious news. Yesterday evening, at 5 o'clock P. M., just as we were discussing the merits of our evening meal, we were ordered into line. We fell in, and in less than five minutes our line was formed behind our advanced works. A large line of skirmishers were deployed in front of us. Everything betokened work, and all were convinced that an assault on the enemy's works was intended immediately. Some little time was occupied in getting the skirinish line ready to advance. This was completed at twenty minutes past 5 o'clock, and then the order was given for them to advance. The men bounded from the works with a cheer, which sounded like the signal note of victory. Lieut. Col. William H. Baldwin, of the Eighty-third Ohio Infantry, was in command of the skirmish line, and led, in person, the gallant men who first advanced, directing their movements, cheering them on to their work, by both word and action. Steadily and gallantly they advanced. Nine hundred yards of ground was to be passed over, ere the enemy's works could be reached; yet not a man faltered, but right on they moved, in the face of an awful fire, sending up cheer after cheer, as they advanced. But a few moments elapsed, until the cry was sent down our lines, " They have reached the works !" In a moment more, the command forward had been given, by our gal- lant Lieut. Col. J. B. Leake, and like a giant, who felt his power to do and dare, the gallant old Twentieth plunged into that awful, hissing, roaring, seething flame of fire. Side by side was the noble old Thirty-seventh Illinois. We rushed forward, sending up such cheers as only Western boys can give-no faltering, no wavering there-but as though every man deemed himself an armed host, did we press onward; every step we made marked by a howling storm of shot and shells, which fell like hailstones all about us; straight across that 900 yards of abattis "wire fence" and "torpedoes," without a halt or check, straight after the glorious ban- ner which Color Sergt. Grace dashed ahead with, striving to be the first to plant it on their works, did we move on, until, with a cheer which must have chilled the heart of every traitor there, we dashed up the sloping sides of the earthworks, and rallied round our colors, conquerors of all within.
There were in the charge the Second Division, Thir- teenth Army Corps; Second Division, Sixteenth Army Corps, and one Division United States Colored Infantry, who, to their everlasting praise be it said, went to the assault as bravely and as nobly as any body of troops in the world. Repulsed in their first assault, they rallied under the enemy's fire, and charged the second time with the success they so well merited.
Fort Blakely, with all the defences of Mobile on the eastern shore of Mobile Bay, and with them Brig. Gen. Cockrell, and 2,200 of his troops, including a large num- ber of officers, were captured. The Twentieth Iowa did not lose a man in the assault, owing to the fact that our rapid approach to their works excited the enemy to such a degree, that although they fired with immense rapidity, they did not fire accurately, or with much precision, and consequently their fire passed over us, one of their shells passing through the blue field of the flag presented us by our Scott County friends. Many of their shells passed over us, and exploded in the regiments to our right.
So far as our regiment is concerned, it has been a blood- less and yet a glorious victory. Our division lost, in killed and wounded, not more than 250, all told. The rebel gunboat Nashville was lying in the river opposite the fort. She did not fire a shot, but traitorously and cowardly hoisted the white flag, and made her escape under its protecting folds. The prisoners whom we cap- tured begged us not to turn them over to the colored troops, whom they feared would take revenge on them, for the cold blooded massacre at Fort Pillow. Col.
Moore, of the Eighty-third Ohio, commanding our brigade, and Col. Black, of the Thirty-seventh Illinois Veterans, and Col. Leake, of our own Twentieth, are deserving of the highest praise for the gallantry which distinguished them and controlled their actions throughout the entire engagement. We were occupied just twenty minutes, from the time we left our own works, until we mounted those. of the enemy, and compelled the traitorous horde within to lay down their arms and acknowledge them- selves prisoners."
The regiment moved into the works, at Blakely, April 12th, and camped near the banks of the Tensas River. The Federal troops marched into Mobile this day.
On the 14th, embarked on board transports, and went over to Mobile, and into camp in the shape of an L, the right of the regiment resting on the corner of Eslava and St. Emanuel streets, and the left on the corner of Monroe and Royal streets, in the city of Mobile.
