After its formation this company march- ed to Alton, where arms were in store, which the regiment procured by a little maneuvering on the part of Col. Baker and Capt. J. S. Post. Col. J. J. Hardin, believing that he was entitled to these arms, stoutly protested against their ap- propriation by Col. Baker, and a wordy warfare ensued which came near resulting in a duel. From Alton the regiment was transferred to Jefferson Barracks, and there placed under charge of Col. Churchill, commaudant, under whom it received thorough discipline and drill. About the 20th of July the regiment was mustered into service by Col. Croghan, of Fort Meigs notoriety. In a few days the regiment received orders and embarked for New Orleans, and thence to Brazos Santiago Bay, four miles north of the mouth of the Rio Grande, where it disembarked.


They remained there about a week, when orders were received to march up the Rio Grande, a distance of eight miles. At this point orders were received to move still further up the river to Matamoras, on the Mexican side, where they remained a few days, and then moved on to Camargo, where a great deal of sickness ensued. Returning to Matamoras, they then marched to Victoria-marching on Christ- mas day forty-five miles. Abont the first of January, 1847, orders were received to march to Tampico, two hundred miles distant, at which place preparations were made for an attack on Vera Cruz. Taking ship at Tampico about the first of Febru- ary, Vera Cruz was reached in sixteen days, and Company C assisted in the con- struction of the batteries and the bom- bardment of the city, which surrendered March 29. After the taking of the city of Vera Cruz, Scott's army marched for the city of Mexico, and en route met Santa Anna at the mountain pass of Cerro Gordo, on the 18th of April, where a hat- tle was fought.

HISTORY OF DE WITT COUNTY, ILLINOIS.


At this battle Santa Anna came near being taken prisoner, and in his effort to escape left in his carriage twenty-five thousand dollars in silver aud his cork leg, which were captured by Company C, it being at the head of the brigade. The next morning ensuing the battle, Gen. Scott followed ou to Jalapa, where Compauy F remained about a month, when the time of enlistment expired, and the company re- turned via New Orleans and St. Louis, ar- riving at home ahout the first of June, 1847.


THE WAR FOR THE UNION.


Nothing better can be said than what has been said relative to the first company raised in De Witt county in behalf of up- holding the nation with a big " N" on the occasion of one of the annual reunions of Company E, Twentieth Illinois regiment, as follows :


" On Friday, April 19, a public meeting was held at the court-house in this city to respond to the call of Gov. Yates for volunteers under President Lincolu's pro- clamation for seventy-five thousand men. Old Colonel George B. Lemen, who held a commission in the State militia, presided, and made a short speech. The crowd that came to the meeting was too large to occupy the court-room, so the meeting ad- journed to the square. Every loyal heart was full of enthusiasm, and the soul-stir- ring notes of Jack Robinson's fife and John Stoker's drum added to the excite- ment. It was no time for speech-making ; treason had raised its hand against the flag of our country, and men of all parties were ready to rush to arms. When Col. Lemen called for volunteers, Evan Rich- ards, a soldier of the Mexican war, and a practising physician, was the first to step forward. Then came Clay Phares, J. M. North, Dr. Goodbrake, J. Richey Conklin and others, who stepped into line with him. By this time military ardor became catch- ing, and it was but a little while till the company was nearly filled to its maximum. An election of officers was held at once and Evan Richards was elected Captain ; H. C. Phares, First Lieutenant; John Bullock, Second Lieutenant ; J. M. North, Third Lieutenant. Instead of telegraph- ing to Springfield, Captain Richards went by railroad to Decatur, and from thenee to Springfield. By the time he reached the capital Gov. Yates had tendered to him more companies than would thrice fill the call. This was a sad.disappointment to the brave boys. However, the company was held in the State service, and on 15


Friday, May 10, it went into camp at Camp Goodell, Joliet. Prior to leaving the ladies of Clinton presented the com- pany with a handsome flag, the work of their own hands. The presentation speech was made by Miss Lydia Gideon, now Mrs. J. M. Prior, and the flag was ar- cepted on behalf of the company by Dr. Christopher Goulbrake That flag was worn out in the service.


"On the 13th day of June company E was mustered into the United States service at Camp Goodell as a part of the Twentieth Regiment-a regiment that afterward saw more and harder service than any that went from Illinois, having been engaged in more than twenty five battles and minor engagements. It is not necessary for us to follow the company and regiment through all the vicissitudes of field and camp. The Twentieth began its fighting record at Fre lericktown, Mo., October 21, '61, where it received its "baptismn of fire." This was the beginning. From the outset Co. E sustained the honor of De Witt county. We will here recount the battles in which the regiment bore a valiant part, leaving it to the survivors to fill in the details. Be- ginning at Fredericktown, Mo, the glori- ous victories that crowned our armies in the south-west, from there to Bentonville, N. C., are a part of the history of the Twentieth. The skirmish at Charleston, Mo., the battles of Ft. Henry, Ft. Donel- son, Shiloh, Corinth, Britton's Lane and Tallahatchie, down to the memorable siege of Vicksburg. Then came Hillsboro, Canton, Meridian, Big Shanty, Kenesaw Mountain, Nickajack. And then came the two days' terrific fighting at Atlanta, known in his- tory as the battles of July 21 and 22.


The Twentieth had suffered terribly, and its numbers had become so reduced by killed, wounded and sick, that there was but a bare remnant of it left. But those who were fit for duty were as full of courage as on the day when they started out from Camp Goodell. After the fight at Atlanta the remnant of the regiment was mounted. Gen. Logan fittingly and feel- ingly speaks of this time in his letter, when on the morning of the 23d of July barely enough men of the entire regiment answered at roll-call to make one company, and when the officer in command of the handful re- ported : 'General, this is the Twentieth regiment.'


days' siege of Savannah. Then came Poco- taligo, South E listo, Orangeburg, Colum- bia, Cheraw, Fayetteville, Big Raft Swamp, and finally wound up the fighting at Ben- tonville, North Carolina.


On to Washington, via Richmond, went the Twentieth, where the boys, ragged and shoeless, took part in the grand review. Then for " home, sweet home." The regi- ment was sent to Louisville, Ky., where it was mustered out of the service on the 16th of July, 1865, having served for over four years from the date of mustering in. Then to Chicago, where the boys were paid off. Out of one hundred and fourteen men that belonged to Co. E from its organization till the date of its discharge, not n.ore than fifty lived to return to their homes.


On the occasion of the re-union referred to, Dr C. Goodbrake delivered the follow- ing address of welcome, which is replete with patriotic thought :


COMRADES,-I never saw the time when, if I applied myself studiously to the task, I could not compose some sort of an ad- dress, or essay on any subject with which I was, at least to some extent, acquainted ; but ever since the day when a few of us met to consult over the arrangements for this re-union, where it was hinted to me that I as chairman of the committee would be called upon to make a few remarks, I have tried to compose something which would be appropriate to present to you on this anniversary of our muster into the ser- vice; and I must acknowledge that for once I have most signally failed. Every time I have eudeavored to collect my thoughts for the task I could think of nothing only how iu April, 1-61, the coun- try became aroused, eu misse at the acts of the South, at southern impudence, southern threats and southern treason. How Cul. Lomen came down to Clinton, procured a drummer and fifer and beat up for volunteers ; how enough of us signed the roll to constitute a company ; how we held an election in the old court-house which resulted in the choice of Evan Rich- ards, Captain, H. Clay Phares, Ist Lieu- tenant ; James M North, 2d Lieutenant ; and John R. Conklin, Orderly Sergeant ; how the ladies presented us with a flag on Snell's Hill; how speeches were made ; how every heart beat with the strong im- pulse of patriotism, and how every man in the company was resolved to aid in caus- ing the flag of our Union to be respected, and the mandates of our government to be obeyed throughout our whole country, or


And then began Sherman's celebrated march to the sea, in which the Twentieth bore a prominent part. The fights at Ogee- chee Bridge and Millen, Ga., were but a | slight taste of what followed at the twelve | perish in the attempt. Then, in my mind's

HISTORY OF DE WITT COUNTY, ILLINOIS.


eye, I cau see the company-then called where we lost about one-third killed and wonnded, of the fighting force left us after the De Witt County Guards-march to the depot, then the hasty and tearful hand- : the battle of Donelson. To the losses of shaking and earnest adiens, between friends : the regiment in both these battles, com- and relations, which with a great many of pany "E" contributed a large, yea, a melancholy number. At Shiloh, losing four killed aud twenty-three wounded ont of forty-three who went into action. our comrades were the last on earth. Then all-aboard for Joliet ; then the encamp- ment at Camp Goodell ; then the organiza- tion of the 20th regiment of Illinois volon- - teers when the De Witt County Guards became company "E"; then the months of encampment under the auspices of the State, and theu on the 13th of June the mustering of the regiment into the service of the United States, by Capt. Pitcher, U. S. A., for three years, nuless sooner dis- charged.


Comrades, you well know how many who on that beautiful June day held np their good right hauds were discharged; sume by surgeon's certificate of disability, and mauy were discharged from further service here on earth, being trausferred to the Grand Army above, where we hope the God of battles has given them a glorious rest eternal.


I now see the regiment on the way to Alton, where we received our first tents and where camp life began in earuest. But we can't tarry here, for "still must we on," and we find ourselves at the Arsenal at St. Louis, and then down the " Father of Wa- ters" to Cape Girardean ; and here we may say the " tramp, tramp, tramp " of our sol- dier life commenced in reality. From the Cape we go to Jackson, theuce back to the Cape ; theu to Bird's Point, back again to the Cape, then throngh Jackson aud Dallas to Fredericktown, where our regimeut re- ceived its " baptism of fire," aud where it assisted in gaining a signal victory over Jeff. Thompson, which I believe was the first complete victory during the war; for those of the enemy who were not killed or wounded, were completely ronted aud scat- tered in flight. Oh! how my heart swelled within me on that occasion, to see the boys -OUR OWN BOYS-stand np so bravely before the enemy. Well, back we marched throngh Cape Girardeau to Bird's Point, then to Fort Jefferson, back again, and then, hurrah! for Fort Heury and Fort Donelson, where, at the latter place, "Greek met Greek," and where, after the battle was over, the 20th had lost twenty killed and nearly one hundred wounded. But now on to Shiloh, where on that 6th day of April, that glorious spring morning, on the holy Sabbath, the long-roll again beat to call onr regiment into that two days' fight, the most terrible fighting that ever transpired on this con.inent, and


But I cannot particularize. You have not forgotten the slow advance to Corinth, the march to Jackson, Tennessee, then on to Estinaula ; then the battle of Brittou's Lane; then on to La Grange, Holly Springs, Oxford, and Yanghnapataupha, and then back to La Grange, Memphis, down the river to Lake Providence, Milli- kin's Beud, Hardtimes Landing, Port Gib- son, Raymond, Jackson, Champion's Hill, and the siege of Vicksburg. Have you forgotten the forty-four days among the saud-hills in the rear of that stronghold of rebeldom ? Have you forgotten the final surrender and your glorious march into the city on that hot and sultry Fourth of July, nnder yonr gallant leader, John A. Logan? "No; I see the memory of those days and scenes are with you to-day."


Now comes the guarding of the city, the march to Brownsville, the raid to Meridian, the steaming up the river to Cairo, np the Ohio and Tennessee to Clifton ; then the march to Rome by way of Huntsville and Decatur; and on, on, to Big Shanty and Kenesaw Mountain ; down to Niekajack, Marietta and Atlanta, where, on the 22d of July, 1864, you fought the last. great battle in which you were engaged, and which left eighteen nen for duty belonging to your regiment. But soon Atlanta fell, and you followed our glorious old chieftain "from Atlanta to the sea."


From Atlanta you served as head- quarters' guard of the Third Division. Yon were mounted, and the whole regi- ment. after all details were called in, num- bered for y-two men present for duty. What a falling off' was there in numbers, from the time we left Joliet, and the morn- ing yon left Atlanta and turned your faces Savannahwards ?


After Sherman presented President Lin- colo with Savannah as a Christmas gift, you marched inland again from Beanfort, through Pocotaligo, Orangeburg, Colnm- bia, Favettesville, Bentonville, Goldsboro, and Raleigh ; then on through Richmond to Washington, where, at the " Great Re- view " yon represented part and parcel of "Sherman's Bummers."


From Washington you were ordered to Louisville, Ky., thence to Chicago, where you were paid off and discharged, July 25,


1865, after serving four years and twelve days.


Comrades, what a glorious record is this for company " E," of the Twentieth Illinois Infantry ! You marched through sixteen different states, fought fifteen battles, shared in four sieges, besides taking part in almost iunumerable skirmishes; and you have the prond satisfaction to tell your children you belonged to a company, a regiment, a brigade, a division, a corps, and an army that never sustained defeat, but always conquered.


Comrades, my task is done. I will only add that I am glad to see so many of you here to-day. For myself and in hehalf of the committee of arrangements, I heartily greet you. In the name of our local an- thorities, and the mothers and daughters of Clinton, I welcome yon to our city and to the Reunion Picnic ; and I hope you will enjoy yourselves in every rational manner possible on this occasion. You can renew old friendships, you can take each other by the hand, you can tell your old camp fire stories and sing your old war songs.


" You can fight a bloodless battle, You can skirmish along the route, But it's not worth while to forage, There are rations enough without."
