During this summer they did considera- ble marching, assisting in the capture of several places, among which were Harrisonburg and Natchez. In Jan- uary, 1864, moved to Vicksburg, where the regiment mustered as a veteran or- ganization, and on the 4th of February, started with Gen. Sherman on the Me- ridian expedition, with the 1st Brig. 4th Div., 17th Army Corps, and with it marched some 300 miles. On the 16th the regiment started for home on their veteran furloughs, after enjoying which on the 28th of April they reassembled at Camp Butler, and again started for the front, joining Gen. Sherman's army at Ackworth, June 11, 1864. On the 12th the siege of Kenesaw mountain began, and the 17th corps, of which the 32d was a part, occupied the left of the line, and this regiment the most exposed position. On the 2d of July the corps was trans- ferred to the right of the line, where it skirmished with the enemy on the 4th and 5th. On the latter date the 4th division assaulted the ene- my's works at Nickajack creek; the 32d was the first to plant its colors thereon. The enemy then withdrew to the Chat- tahoochie, and on the 17th to Atlanta. July- 18, the regiment was transferred to the 2d brigade and Col. Logan made the commander of the brigade, Lieut .- Col. English commanding the regiment. The 2d brigade was now sent to Marietta to guard the depot of supplies at place. September 8, a party of 30 men under Licut. Alexander Campbell, while out foraging, were captured, after a spirited resistance, only nine escaping.

On the Ist of October the regiment moved to a point near Kenesaw monn- tain. On the 3d, the enemy, in strong

foree, attacked the line, and driving back the guard, killed and captured 12 men. The regiment lay in camp near Marietta until the commencement of "Sherman's march to the sea," when it moved from Atlanta, Nov. 15, 1864, having moved to that place two days previous. They accompanied that matchless soldier, Sherman, on his tri- umphant march through the heart of the confederacy, and while engaged in the siege of Savannah, from Dec. 10 to 21, lost Capt. E. C. Lawson, and four men wounded. From the 8th to the 18th the regiment was on less than one- fourth rations, some days not even hav- ing that. They remained in camp here until Jan. 5, 1865, when they embarked for Beaufort, South Carolina, where they remained until Feb. 1. On the 3d of that month, the division under the command of Gen. Giles A. Smith, waded the Salkahatchie river, at a point where it had been deemed impossible, by the enemy, to cross. The river here spread out some two miles wide, was from two to five feet deep, and ice-cold, but general, staff and line officers as well as men waded across, and after half an hour's skirmishing on the opposite bank, com- pelled the enemy to evacuate their strong line of defense.

On the 12th of Feb., they arrived at the North Edisto river. The bridge being strongly guarded, the 32d was or- dered one mile above, where it waded the stream, and the enemy finding some of our troops on that side of the river, fled, and Orangeburg was occupied by the 17th eorps. On the 16th, the divis- ion arrived on the south bank of the Congaree river, opposite Columbia, S. C., and our batteries commeneed

shelling the enemy, who were still in the city. During the night the confed- erates evacuated the place, and in the morning two companies of the 13th la. Inf., and Co. C, of the 32d Ill., crossed the river in flats, with the colors of each regiment. The flag of the 13th Ia., was placed on the State Ilouse, and that of the 32d Ill., on the City Hall. From here the eorps engaged in its northward march; were engaged at Bentonville, N. C., where the 32d lost heavily while on the skirmish line. And still moving northward until the close of the war, took part in the grand review at Wash- ington, May 24, 1865. It then pro- ceeded west to Fort Leavenworth and Kearney, and returning to the former, was mustered out Sept. 16, 1865, and were ordered to Camp Butler for final pay and discharge.

proceeding to Springfield, it was found that the quota was full from this state, and one of the officers proceeded to St. Louis, where a contract was entered into with Gen. Fremont, that this company, with nine others, should be mustered into the service of the United States, se- curing their officers from the regular army. On the 18th of Dec., 1861, the regiment was organized, and John C. Kelton, of the regular service made col- onel, but the other staff officers were taken from the Missouri militia, and were but luke-warm, to say the least, in the cause of the Union. The regiment was mustered in as the 9th Mo. Inf. Charles C. Frederick was lieutenant- colonel; D. MeGibbon,major; P. Sidney Post, adjutant; Frederick Brasher, quar- termaster; J. D. S. Haslett, surgeon, and Nathan Shumette, chaplain. The companies composing the regiment had been mustered at various times in Aug- ust and September, and the organization effected as above. On the 21st of Sep- tember they were ordered to Jefferson City, and on the 30th the regiment was moved to Booneville, where it was placed in the same brigade with the 27th Ill. Inf., 5th Ia. Inf., 1st Kan. Inf., and Davidson's Ill. Bat'y. This brigade was placed under the command of Col. J. C. Kelton, and the division, to which it was attached, by Gen. John Pope. Oct. 13, marched via Syracuse to Otter- ville, arriving at the latter place four days later, and on the 21st set out for Springfield, Mo., where they went into camp on the 3d. Nov. 9, they started back for Syracuse. On the 20th of the same month, Col. Worthington, of the 5th Ia. Inf., took command of the brigade, only to turn it over to Col.

Julius White, of the 37th Ill. Inf. About this time there arose much dissatisfac- tion with the staff officers, and Col. Kel- ton withdrawing, Gov. Gamble commis- sioned P. Sidney Post as colonel of the regiment.

Feb. 12, 1862, by an order of the war department, the regiment was changed to the 59th Ill. Inf., a name which it bore until the end of the war. It was at this time engaged with the army un- der Major-General Samuel Curtis, in the pursuit of Ceneral Price, and on the 22d moved to a place called Cross Hollows. On the 6th of March they marched, through snow and sleet, to Pea Ridge, where on the 7th, the division of Gen. Jeff. C. Davis, to which the 59th be- longed, was engaged with the enemy all day. Here it was that Maj. P. Sidney Post was severely wounded. The next day they moved to reinforce Gens. As- both and Carr, who had been forced to take up a new position in the rear of their old one, and were soon hotly en- gaged. Lieut .- Col. Frederick was wounded, and Capt. IIale commanded the regiment during the balance of the day. On the 10th the regiment moved to Sugar creek, and on the 15th to Cross Timbers. Considerable marching and counter-marching was now done by this regiment, and on the 28th they found themselves at West Plains, from whence Capt. Ellett, three lieutenants and 50 men were detached to serve with Col. Ellett's ram fleet. The division arrived at Cape Girardeau on the 20th of May, and there embarked for lIamburg Land- ing, Tenn., and on the 27th moved to Farmington, and were placed in reserve on the left of Gen. Pope's army, near Corinth. On the evacuation of that

place, pursued the enemy as far as Booneville, and then returned to Clear creek. On the 5th of August they had a smart skirmish with the enemy's cav- alry at Bay Springs, Miss., and arrived at Inka on the 8th. On the 18th they crossed the Tennessee river, at Eastport, and camped at Waterloo. Col. Post, who had returned, now took charge of the brigade, and Gen. R. B. Mitchell of the division. They marched to Florence, Ala., and from there to Franklin, Tenn., and to Murfreesboro, and on the 3d day of September, commenced the northward march with Gen. Buell, arriving at Louisville, Sept. 26. Here they rested a few days, and on the 1st of Oct., the 59th, 74th and 75th Ill. Inf., and the 2d Ind. Inf., were placed in one brigade, known as the 30th Brig., Army of the Ohio, and assigned to the 9th Div., 3d A. C. They, now, with the army under Buell, moved out after Gen. Bragg, and on the Sth of Oct. met him at Chaplin Hills, where there was a hotly contested battle, the 59th losing 113 men, killed and wound- ed, out of 361 going into action. Maj. Joshua C. Winters was in command of the regiment. On the 10th they were engaged in pursuit of the enemy, and on the 14th found him at Lancaster, Ky., and had a severe skirmish. They then returned to Nashville, where they went into winter quarters.

VETERAN ORGANIZATION.

The 59th Reg. Ill. Vet. Inf., was at- tached to the 1st Brig., 1st Div., 20th A. C., and on the 25th of Oct., 1862, was in camp eight miles from Nashville. This brigade was composed of the 59th, 74th and 75th Ill. Inf., 22d

Ind. Inf., and 5th Wis. Bat'y. The brigade was commanded by Col. P. S. Post, the division by Gen. Jeff. C. Davis, and the corps by Gen. A. M. McCook. On the 25th of Dec., Col. Post's brigade, to which was added the 21st Ill. Inf., made a reconnoissance toward Franklin, and skirmished with the enemy all day. The 59th pressed down the road from Brentwood toward Nolensville On the 26th the army of the Cumberland was put in motion for the Stone river campaign, Col. Post's brigade taking the advance toward Nolensville. The 59th was deployed as skirmishers and drove the enemy be- fore them for nine miles, until it was found in force at Nolensville. It, also, took part in the assault on that town, from which the Confederates were driven in confusion, and also in the combined attack of Cols. Post's and Carlin's brigades on Pilot Knob. On the 27th, the enemy was driven to Triune, where our regiment lay until the 29th. when it marched toward Murfreesboro. On the 30th, the enemy was found in force and entrenched. An unsuccessful attempt was made to drive him from his position, and the regiment lay, dur- ing the night of the 30th, within a few hundred yards of the enemy's works. Early on the morning of the 31st, the enemy turned the right flank of the 20th corps. The 59th changed front to the rear, and supporting the 5th Wis. Bat'y, for a long time held the enemy in check, and when withdrawn, brought with it the guns of the battery, from which the horses had all been killed. It was then put in position on the Mur- freesboro pike, which it held until Jan- uary 2, when Col. Post's brigade crossed

627

the Stone river, to the extreme left of the army, to drive back the enemy, who had succeeded in turning the left flank. The regiment forded the river, swollen by recent rains, and assisted in driving back the enemy, and held their posi- tion on the extreme front, until the morning of January 4, when it recrossed Stone river, and the enemy evacuated Murfreesboro.

On the 23d of June, the Tullahoma campaign was commenced. Col. Post's brigade marched to Liberty Gap, and engaged the enemy from the 24th to the 27th, when he pressed the enemy back to Winchester. He remained at this latter place until August 17, when the brigade set out, and during the night of 17th and day of the 18th, was engaged in hauling a train of 200 wagons up the Cumberland mountains. On the 20th, they reached Crow creek, near Steven- son, and 10 days later it left here, and, crossing the Tennessee river, ascended Sand mountain, and then pushed out for Lookout valley, and reached Wins- ton's on the 4th. On the 18th, the brigade marched 26 miles to Steven's Gap, and from thence to Crawfish Springs, bringing it directly in the rear of the enemy. Hastening on to rein- force Chattanooga, now threatened by a daring enemy, Col. Post and his gallant brigade reached that point on the 22d, a march over rough country of 122 miles.

During the siege of Chattanooga, the 59th was constantly under the fire of the enemies batteries. On the 21st of Oct., the army of the Cumberland was re- organized, and the 59th became a part of the 3d Brig., 1st Div., 4th A. C. On the 25th the regiment, with the brigade, was ordered to White-

sides, Tenn., and on the 23d of Nov. the regiment started on the Lookout Mountain campaign. On the 25th the 59th led the brigade in the assault on on Mission Ridge, from which the enemy was driven in confusion. Pursu- ing the fleeing confederates for 15 miles, to Ringgold, where they were again brought to a stand but soon routed. On the 30th of Nov. the regiment was sent to the battlefield of Chickamauga, to bring the dead that thickly strewed that plain. From there they returned to Whitesides. Jan. 12, 1864, the reg- iment was mustered as a veteran or- ganization, and on the 27th marched to to Chattanooga and on the 6th of Feb. started for Springfield, Ill., which it reached on the 10th, to enjoy the fur- lough granted to all veteranizing troops.

On the 19th of March, the regiment, fully reorganized, left Springfield for the front, and arrived at Cleveland, Tenn., in a day or two. On the 3d of May the Atlanta campaign commenced, and on the 7th, the regiment supported the attack upon Tunnel Hill, and on the Sth, commenced the attack on Rocky Faced ridge, where it was constantly engaged until the 13th, when the enemy abandoned the position. On the 14th and 15th the 59th was warmly engaged at Resaca, and on the 16th again came in contact with the enemy, at Adairsville; thence to crossing the Chattahoochie, the 59th was engaged at Kingston, Dallas. Ackworth, l'ine Top, Kene- saw Mountain, Smyrna Camp-meeting groun besides innumerable skirmishes, On the 12th of July, the regiment crossed the Chattahoochie, and presented itself before the fortifications that surrounded Atlanta, and from that time until the

25th of Aug. it was continually assailing the works of the enemy, and was under fire night and day.

On the 18th of Aug., the 59th was assigned for duty to the 2d Brig., 3d Div., 4th A. C., and was well and ably commanded by Col. P. Sidney Post. On the 25th of August, the regiment marched round Atlanta, with the army, in the direction of Jonesboro, and on the 28th and 29th, was engaged in skirmishing with the enemy at Red Oak. On the 31st it reached the enemy's line of com- munication, and destroyed the railroad at Rough-and-Ready. On the 2d of Sep- tember, the battle of Lovejoy's Station was fought, and the 59th gained fresh laurels to her deathless crown. On the 6th the regiment started for Atlanta, and encamped on the 8th, between that city and Decatur, where it remained un- til Oct. 2, when Gen. Hood's army har- ing evacuated Atlanta, had commenced destroying the railroad between Atlanta and Chattanooga, they set out, with other troops in pursuit. On the 3d the Chattahoochie was crossed, and the enemy first found at Pine Top. The chase was now continued through Kingston, Rome, Resaca, and across the mountains to Snake Creek Gap, and to Galesville, which latter it reached on the 20th. On the 27th the regiment started for Chattanooga, but left the lat- ter almost on arrival, for Athens, Tenn. It marched to Pulaski, and commenced fortifying that place, Nov. 1, but on the 23d it was deemed best to evacuate the place, and on the 24th they com- meneed a skirmish with the enemy at Columbia. Shortly after this, Col. Post crossed Duck river, and with his brigade attacked the Confederate army

in the flank, as it was marching toward Spring Hill. The fight continued all day, and at night the regiment marched 20 miles, and reached Spring Hill on the morning of the 30th. Resting here but an hour, the little force was pushed on to Franklin, where a fierce and bloody battle was fought that afternoon. On the morning of Dec. 1, the regiment reached Nashville, which they helped to fortify.

Dec. 15, the battle of Nashville commenced. Col. Post's brigade as- saulted Montgomery hill, and, in the language of Gen. Thomas, "took the initiative in the brilliant deeds of that day." The 59th was in the first line of the assaulting column, and planted the first colors on the captured works. In the afternoon it assaulted and captured the enemy's works on the Hillsboro pike. The next day, Dec. 16, Col. Post's brigade made the ever memorable assault upon Overton's hill. In this battle the regiment lost, in killed and wounded, one-third of the number en- gaged, among whom were nine officers, including Col. Post, who was severely wounded by a grape shot. The regi- ment started in pursuit of the flying enemy, driving them across the Tennes- see, and on the 3d of January, camped at Huntsville, Ala. On the 31st it re- turned to Nashville, but was sent back to Huntsville, in February. March 15, it was moved to Strawberry plains, East Tennessee, thence to Greenville, in the same state, and on the 6th of April, to Warm Springs, N. C., and from there back to Greenville and Nash- ville. On the 16th of June, the regi- ment left Nashville for New Orleans, and on the 9th of July, arrived at In-

dianola, Tex, from whence it marched to San Antonio, and was stationed at New Braunfels, Tex., until the 8th of Dee., 1865, when it was mustered out of service, and ordered to Springfield, Ill., for final payment and discharge.
