Nineteenth Infantry, or Irish Legion, was organized in the summer and mustered in in October. 1862. Its prompt organization was mainly due to Very Rev. Dr. D. Dunne. and Timothy ('Meard. the first Colonel. The services of this command were as extensive as they were brilliant, losing 300 men and returning with only 221 men, of whom 41 were crippled. The badge of the command was ~ 40 rounds of cartridge." It is said that two or more Stark county men served in this command.
Ninety-third Infantry organized at Chicago in September, 1862: ordered to Memphis in November, served in the northern Mississippi campaign, and in March, 1863, served in the Yazoo Pass expedition. On May 14 was the first engaged at Jackson, losing 3 killed and 4 wounded. On Black River the command lost 37 men and 6 officers killed, and 107 wounded. Vicksburg, Mission Ridge, the Alabama campaign, Resaca, Alatoona, the Carolina's campaign, and a hundred smaller affairs, tell the history of the Ninety-third. It was mustered out June 23. 1865, after 6.087 miles of travel and a casualty list of 478 men. The soldiers of Stark in the Ninety-third were : Colonel, Nich- olas C.

One-hundred-and eighth Infantry organized at Camp Peoria. August 27, 1862, left for Kentucky October 6, and went into active service. In December, 1862, the command moved toward Vicksburg. meeting the enemy at Chickasaw Bayon, for the first time, losing four men killed. In the investment of Arkansas Post. Jannary 10. 1863. the One-hundred-and-eighth bore a brilliant part, losing thirteen men wounded. The command was mustered out August 5, 1865. In this regiment were in Company (, Richard Lynch, recruited November. 1863. (see Forty-seventh Hfinois.) Company D. James Riley, recruited March. 1865. (see Forty-seventh Illinois.)
One-hundred-and-twelfth Infantry may be said to date its organ- ization back to August 8, 1862, when the commissioned officers of the three Stark county companies and seven Henry county companies of militia met at Galva. The command was then known as the " Henry County Regiment." the number " One-hundred-and-twelfth" being assigned on acceptance by the State. The regiment was mustered in at Peoria, September 20 and 22, 1862, 903 strong. This number was increased to 940 by October 8. when the command left en route to Cincinnati. where John F. Meyers, of Company F, died. From this time to March 31, 1863, no less than thirty-two members were reported dead. On February 23, 1863, twenty-five men under C'apt. Dow, were captured by 250 men of Morgan's command, and, after being robbed, were paroled, and were not exchanged until September, 1863. At Winchester. Mt. Sterling. Paris and Boonsboro. in March. 1863, the command gave evidence of what stuff it was composed. Service round Danville, Capt. Otman's escape on the Kentucky river. the mounting of the command, and a few minor meetings with rebel outposts char- acterized the command in April. Monticello, Knoxville, Lemoir, and Walburg, Somerset, the organization of a musician's corps, the affair at ('linch Nut. and the destination of railroad stations mark the progress of the One-hundred-and-twelfth in Kentucky and Tennesee up to July. 1863. In July the attempt to save the wagon train at Crab Orchard : the capture of rebels at Harrodsburg by Capt. Otman and Milchrist's command, the fight at Richmond and pursuit formed the most notable events. The march over the Cumberland Mountains. the capture at Post Oak Springs : the entry into Athens, and establishment of a Union newspaper there mark the campaign of the One-hundred-and-twelfth in August. In September the rebels surprised the town, capturing a number of Stark county men, and killing Capt. Dickenson. At Cal- houn, Cleveland and along the Iliawassee river, the command was ever on duty during a part of this month : many members having seri- ous adventures and hair-breadth escapes. In the fall of 1863 the bat- tles round London, Lenoir and Philadelphia were participated in, and in November the seige of Knoxville, battle of Campbell's Station ; the affair at Ft. Saunders brought additional honors to the command. The pursuit of Longstreet, and a never ending round of skirmishing characterized the campaign of December. The affairs of Flat Creek and Kelly's Ford in January. 1864 entailed serious losses in the One-

hundred-and-twelfth. In April the regiment was dismounted, and took its place among the troops ordered to participate in the Georgia campaign. From May S, 1864. this comman i did brilliant service under Sherman, and its history is in fact that of the most aggressive regiment under Sherman. From the day the command left Peoria in 1862, to muster out, June 20. 1565. its services to the Union were hekl as models for all other regiments. On its flag is the inscription : " Kentucky." " Monticello," " East Tennessee." " Campbell's Station." " Knoxville." " Bean's Station." " Dandridge," " Atlanta." " Resaca." " Kenesaw," " Utoy Creek." " Nashville." " Columbia," " Franklin." " Wilmington." " Fort Anderson." In the history of this command. written by Capt. B. F. Thompson, the whole story of the organization and services of the One-hundred-and-twelfth is related.
