FOURTEENTH ILLINOIS INFANTRY.

The regiment known as the 14th Ill. Vol. Inf. was organized for 30 days un- der what is known as the " Ten Regi- ment bill," and was mustered into the state service at Jacksonville, where it rendezvoused, on the 4th of May, 1861. On the 25th of the same month it was mustered into the service of the United States, for three years, by Capt. Pitcher, of the regular army.

The regiment remained at Camp Dun- ean, Jacksonville, Ill., until the latter part of June, 1861, under instruction in drill and other duties contingent upon the life of a soldier, but upon the date above they proceeded to Quincy, Ill., and upon the 5th of July were trans- ferred to Missouri. The officers at this time were as follows: Colonel, John M. Palmer; lieutenant-colonel, Amory K. Johnson; major, Jonathan Morris; and adjutant, Robert P. MeKnight. It did some guard duty in Missouri, in con- nection with the 16th Ill. Inf. On the 16th of July the regiment marched with other troops, under the command of Gen. Stephen A. Hurlbut, to Honey- ville, Mo., in pursuit of the column un- der Gen. Martin E. Green, and arrived in that town on the 1st of September, dispersing the forces of the enemy, cap- turing James Green, lately a United States senator, a strong fomentor of se- cession and rebellion. The regiment then proceeded to Rolla, where it re- mained but a short time, moving to Jefferson City, where it joined with the forces under Gen, John C. Fremont, in his memorable campaign to Spring- field, Mo., after Gen. Price. On the con- elusion of the campaign the 14th re- turned and wintered at Otterville, Mo.

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY.

In the month of Feb., 1862, the regi- ment was ordered to join the forces under Gen. Grant, at Donelson, but ar- rived at that place one day too late to participate in the engagement of that place. Here it was brigaded with the 15th and 46th Ill. and 25th Ind. Inf. Regts., and, under the name of the 2d Brig., assigned to the 4th Div., under the command of Gen. S. A. IIurlbut, of this state. In the meantime Col. Palmer, having been promoted to the rank of brigadier-general,and Lieu't-Col.Amory K. Johnson, having been made colonel of the 28th Ill. Inf., Maj. Cyrus Hall, of the 7th Ill. Cav. was appointed colonel of the 14th.

From Fort Donelson the regiment proceeded to Fort Henry, where it em- barked and was transported by steam- boats up the Tennessee river to Pitts- burg Landing. Here, early on the morning of the 6th of April the regi- ment was called into line and marched half a mile to the front, where it met the enemy driving General Prentiss. It was assigned a position on the left of the line, in Peach Orchard. The enemy immediately attacked it, but were re- pulsed; and it held its position from 8 o'clock A. M. until 3 P. M., only then retiring under orders from General S. A. Hurlbut, commanding the old fighting 4th division. On the morning of the 7th it held a position on the right of the line, and was hotly engaged until the battle closed and the victory won. During those two long, trying, bloody days the regiment behaved nobly, and was never broken or driven back by the enemy, though often most heavily pressed, although this was the first time that the regiment had been under fire.

They sustained a loss of nearly one-half of the command present, and their colors, which came out of the conflict with forty-two bullet holes through them, fully attest the fierceness of the combat and the gallantry of the men in that memorable struggle. All the his- torians of this fearfully contested field highly compliment this noble band of heroes, who that day distinguished themselves at a most terrible sacrifice. In the grand charge on the 7th, which was the consummation of that splendid vietory wrested from the arms of defeat, the 14th Illinois was in the advance, and was led by Col. Hall. In the official report of Gen. Veach, commander of the brigade, he used the following words in speaking of this favorite body of men: "Col. Hall, of the 14th Illinois, led with his regiment that gallant charge on Monday evening, which drove the enemy beyond our lines and closed the struggle of that memorable day."

The regiment, also, took an active part in the siege of Corinth, during the month of May, 1862, and after the evac- uation of that place by Gen. Bragg, they went to Memphis, thence to Bolivar.

On the 4th of Oet., 1862, the gallant 4th division, under Gen. IIurlbut, was ordered to proceed to Corinth, as a for- lorn hope, to relieve the beleagured garrison of that place, but the gallant Rosecrans, before Corinth was reached, had already severely punished the ene- my, and the forlorn hope met the enemy at the village of Metamora, on the river Hatchie. After eight hours hard fighting a glorious victory was gained, in which the 14th Ill. sustained most nobly the reputation gained at Shiloh or Pittsburg Landing.

240

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY.

The regiment constituted a part of the right wing of Grant's army in the march into northern Mississippi, through Holly Springs, to Yacona Pa- talfa, under the immediate command of General McPherson. General Van Dorn, of the confederate army, having cap- tured Holly Springs with its large amount of army stores, and General W. T. Sherman being unable to effect a dis- lodgement of the enemy from Vicks- burg, Grant's army was compelled to retreat, and Jan. 18, 1863, the 14th Ill. Reg. went into winter quarters at La- Fayette, Tenn.

Early in the spring of 1863, the regi- ment was ordered to the lines in front of Vicksburg, and took part in the siege of that stronghold until its fall, July 4, 1863. After this, the command took its part in the expedition to Jackson, Miss., remaining there until the evacuation of that city. In August, of that year, it proceeded to Natchez, and formed part of the force which marched across the swamps of northeastern Louisiana, to Harrisonburg, on the Ouachita river, and captured Fort Beauregard, where, the spring previous, the ram, Queen of the West, had been sunk. It also took part in the famous Meridian campaign, under General Sherman and on its return from that expedition, the regiment, or a large part of it, veteranized, although its time would have expired in a short period. After a short veteran furlough in the beloved northland, they returned to the field refreshed, and anxious for the fray.

General W. T. Sherman, with a force numbering a little less than 100,000 men of all arms, with 254 guns, in the spring of 1864, started on his ever me-

morable campaign, to penetrate the heart of the confederacy, draw off the attention of a large portion of the forces of the south, so that they could not re- inforce the hard pressed army of Vir- ginia. The country to be traversed was almost chaotic in its upheaval. Rugged mountains, deep, narrow ravines, thick primitive woods, crossed by narrow, ill-made roads, succeed each other for 40 miles; then intervenes a like distance of comparatively open country, only to be succeeded by another rugged, diffi- cult region of mountains and passes which reaches nearly to the Chattahoo- chie river, across which, eight miles distant, lay the important city of At- lanta. The gallant band of heroes called the 14th Ill. Inf., still under the command of Colonel Hall participated in all of the movements and engage- ments that led up to the siege of At- lanta, and honorably acquitted them- selves in every place they were called upon to act the part of men.

While before Atlanta the 14th and 15th Ill., ever together since the autumn of 1862, sharers of each others' sorrows and joys, weary marches and honorably earned laurels, were consolidated into the "14th and 15th Ill. Vet. Bat.," and it was detailed to guard the railroad communications at or near Ackworth, Ga., a most important and dangerous duty, as it was the only route by which the supplies for Sherman's army could be brought, and upon the preservation of which depended the subsistence and ammunition of this immense host. In the month of. Oct., 1864, when the con- federate General Hood made his demon- stration against the rear of Sherman's army, a large number of the battalion

241

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY.

were killed, and a large part of the balance captured and sent to Anderson- ville prison pen. Those who escaped capture were mounted, and accompany- ing Sherman on the ever memorable march to the sea, acted as scouts, and were continually in the advance, and were the first to drive the confederate pickets into Savannah, Ga. During the long and dreary march through South and North Carolina, this battallion was on duty day and night, being constantly in the presence of the enemy, and gained great notoriety as skillful scouts and skirmishers. They were the first to enter the town of Cheraw, S. C., and later, the town of Fayetteville, N. C., and took a part in the battle of Ben- tonville.

At Goldsborough, N. C., the battalion organization was discontinued in the spring of 1865, a sufficient number of organized recruits, of the one year men, having arrived by way of New York and Morehead City, N. C., to fill up the two regiments, Colonel Hall being again as- signed to the command of his old regi- ment, the 14th. After the capitulation of Johnston, the regiment marched to Washington, D. C., where it partiei- pated in the well remembered review. It afterwards was transported by rail and steamboat to Louisville, Ky., thence by river to Fort Leavenworth, Kas. From this place they marched to Fort Kearney, Neb., and from thence back. It was mustered out at Fort Leavenworth, Sept. 16, 1865, and ar- rived at Springfield, Ill., where the men received their discharge. The ag- gregate number of men who belonged to this favorite regiment was 1,980, and only 480 were mustered out.

During its four years and four months of arduous service, this regiment marched 4,490 miles, traveled by rail 2,330 miles, and by river 4,490 miles, making in all a grand total of 11,670 miles.

TWENTY-SEVENTH ILLINOIS INFANTRY.

This regiment was organized with only seven companies, at Camp Butler, Springfield, Ill., Aug. 10, 1861, and ordered to Jacksonville, as a part of the brigade of Gen. John A. MeCler- nand. The officers of the regiment were as follows: Colonel, Napoleon B. Buford; lieutenant-colonel, Fazillo A. Harrington; major, Hall Wilson; and Henry A. Rust, adjutant. On the 1st of Sept., 1861, the regiment proceeded under orders to Cairo, where three ad- ditional companies were added to their strength, and all moved on to the scene of hostilities, and first smelt powder at Belmont, on the 7th of Nov., 1861, where it bore a prominent part and suf- fered heavily. On the evacuation of Columbus, Ky., the 27th was sent there to duty as garrison. On the 14th of March, 1862, in company with the 42d Ill., 18th Wis. and parts of the 2d Ill. light Art. and 2d Ill. Cav., it formed what was called the Mississippi flotilla, and started down the Mississippi river and remained during the siege of Island No. 10, the 27th being the first federal force to land upon the island, after its capture. After crossing the river, the regiment was moved to Ft. Pillow, but was recalled and ordered to Pittsburg Landing, Tenn., and was engaged in the siege of Corinth, and battle of Far- mington, May 9, 1862, and followed in pursuit of the enemy to Booneville. It then retraced its steps to Corinth, where it remained some time. In July, 1862,

the regiment received orders to proceed to Iuka, and soon after was distributed along the line of the Memphis & Charleston railroad, where it remained until the early part of September, when it crossed the Tennessee river, at Deca- tur, Alabama. under the command of Maj. Gen. John M. Palmer, and push- ing on made a rapid and forced march to Nashville, Tenn., where it arrived September 12, and where it remained during the time it was cut off from com- munication with the north. The 27th was also with the advance from Nash- ville, and particularly distinguished itself at the battle of Stone River. On the 24th of June, 1863, it moved with the army against Shelbyville and Tulla- homa, and thence to Bridgeport, Ala. On the 2d of September, the corps crossed the Tennessee river, and moved down toward Rome, Ga., below Chatta- nooga, and returned in time to take part in the pursuit of Bragg. For some time Gen. Rosecrans had been gather- ing a large body of men at Nashville, and had, by threatening his line of communication, caused Gen. Braxton Bragg to evacuate Chattanooga, on the 8th of Sept. Gen. Rosecrans, under the impression that Bragg's forces in retreat were demoralized, pushed on in his rear, but the confederate comman- der, who was an able one, receiving heavy reinforcements, turned and met his pursuer. This he did with so much suddenness and ferocity, that the union forces narrowly escaped being cut up in detail, as they were scattered along the line forty miles in length. Gen. Rose- crans, who was on hand, rapidly con- centrated his forces, and the two armies met at Chickamauga creek.

243

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY.

The first day's engagement, although a hot one, was indeeisive and on the second day, the 20th of Sept. 1863, the day had hardly dawned ere the roar of artillery, and the sharp rattle of mus- ketry awoke the slumbering echoes of the " River of Death," the Indian name of the creek bearing that interpretation. All the forenoon the battle raged with unparalleled fury, but about noon the federal line was broken for a few mo- ments by the passing of troops to the left, then hard pressed. General Long- street, of the confederate army, seized the opportunity, and, hurling the nec- eeessary forces on the weakened center, soon swept it and the right wing from the field. The demoralized fugitives, in their headlong flight, carried off General Rosecrans with them. All now de- pended upon General Thomas, who had command of the left wing, which yet stood steadfast. All through that long afternoon the entire confederate army surged around that band of heroes, a body of brave men commanded by as brave a commander, who, by the firm- ness of their front, earned for General Thomas the proud sobriquet of the "rock of Chickamauga." The 27th suffered severely during the fight, and with the balance of the army fell back to Chattanooga, where it remained du- ring the investment of that place, for Bragg, following the retreating forces, occupied the surrounding hills, threat- ening the city and the garrison with starvation.

Grant was now appointed to supercede General Rosecrans, and hastened to Chattanooga, but being afraid that Gen- eral Thomas, who had command after Rosecrans left, would surrender before

re-enforeements, could reach him, tele- graphed him to hold fast. The old Ro- man's reply was, "I will stay till I starve." On Grant's arrival things be- gan to wear a different aspeet. A corps from the army of the Potomae 23,000 strong, under General Joseph Hooker eame, and General W. T. Sherman, hastened by forced marches from Iuka, 200 miles away, and communications were again restored. On the 24th of November the 27th was ordered on duty, and helped fight the ever-memor- able battle of Lookout Mountain. Gen. Hooker was ordered to charge the enemy, but to stop on the high ground, but the men, carried away by the ardor of the attack, swept on, over the crest, driving the enemy before them. The next morning Hooker advanced on the south of Missionary Ridge. Sherman had been the whole time pounding away on the northern flank, and Grant perceiv- ing that the rebel line in front of him was being weakened to repel these attacks on the flank, saw that the critical moment had arrived and launch- ed Thomas' corps on its center.

" The signals for the attack had been arranged," says B. F. Taylor, in his ac- count of the battle. " six eannon shots fired at intervals of two seeonds. The moment arrived. Strong and steady the order rang out: 'No. 1, fire ! No. 2, fire ! No. 3, fire !' It seemed to me like the tolling of the cloek of destiny. And when at ' No. 6, fire !' the roar throbbed out with the flash, you should have seen the dead line, that had been lying behind the works all day, come to resurrection in the twinkling of an eye, and leap like a blade from its seabbard."

The orders were to take the rifle-pits

244

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY.

at the foot of Missionary ridge, then halt and reform; but the men forgot them all, and carrying the works at the base, swept up the ascent. Grant caught the grand inspiration, and ordered a grand charge along the whole front. Up they went, without firing a shot, over rocks, trees, and stumps, surmounted the crest, captured the guns and turned them upon the enemy, now fully routed and in disorderly retreat. Although the 27th held its accustomed place in these battles, it lost only a few men.

From Mission ridge the Reg. was called on to make a forced march to the relief of Knoxville, then closely pressed by the confederate forces under Gen. Long- street, but by the time it reached the beleaguered city the enemy had been re- pulsed. It then returned to Loudon, Tenn., arriving there Jan. 25, 1864, and going into camp, remained until April 18, when orders were received that caused it to move to Cleveland, Tenn. While at this place Gen. Sherman was collecting his forces and organizing his army for the descent upon Atlanta and the subsequent march to the sea, and the 27th Ill. was ordered to join the in- vading force, which it did. At Rocky Face ridge, May 9, Resaca, May 14, Cal- houn, May the 16th, Adairsville, May the 17th, Dallas, May the 26th to June 4, Pine Top mountain, June 10 to 14, Mud creek, June 18, and Kenesaw, this gallant regiment performed prodigies of valor and wrung from a defeated enemy the highest encomiums.

At the battle of Peach Tree creek, July 20, the 27th was in line, and to quote the words of Greeley in his history of the war: "These soldiers stood as still as though bullet proof."

The regiment was relieved from duty at the front, Aug. 25, 1864, and ordered to Springfield, Ill., for muster out, but was detained for a couple of days at Nashville, Tenn., on the way home, on account of apprehensions felt in that city, of an attack by the cavalry column under Gen. Wheeler. It then proceeded to the capital of Illinois, where it was mustered out, Sept. 25, 1864.

During the term of service it had the following casualties: killed or died of wounds, 102; died of disease, 80; num- ber of wounded, 328; discharged and resigned, 209; transferred, 39. The veterans and recruits of the 27th were consolidated with the 9th Ill. Inf., on their comrades leaving for home.
