NINETY-SEVENTH ILLINOIS VOLUNTEER INFANTRY
The Ninety-seventh Illinois Volunteer Infantry was organized at Camp Butler, Springfield, Ill., in September, 1862, and was mustered into the service of the United States on September 16, with the follow- ing regimental staff : Friend S. Rutherford, colonel; Lewis D. Martin, lieutenant colonel; Stephen W. Horton, major; Victor Vifquain, adjutant; G. C. Cockerel, quartermaster; Samuel Willard, surgeon; and W. M. Baker, chaplain.
On October 3, the regiment started for Cincinnati, Ohio, and from there it marched to Nicholasville, Ky., where it went into camp and remained drilling and doing guard and police duty until November 10, when it was assigned to the division under command of Gen. A. J. Smith, and moved to Louisville, Ky., arriving in that city October 15. On October 17, it embarked on transports and started for Memphis, Tenn., and on its arrival there, went into camp, November 26. Here it was assigned to the Second Brigade, Tenth Division, Thirteenth Army Corps, under the command of Maj. Gen. John A. McClernand.
This force left Memphis, Tenn., December 20, and landed near Walnut Hill on the Yazoo River, and occupied a position on the extreme left during the battle of Chickasaw Bayou, but fortunately for them, were not brought into the assaulting column, for this was an impotent and fruitless attack on the most superb fortifications of the south. The sluggish waters of the bayou covered the entire enemy's front, behind which rose the lofty bluffs of the Yazoo. Here the labor of thousands of slaves had been devoted to the complete fortifications of the line for months, until it was perfectly impregnable to the simple assault, yet General Sherman dared the awful hazard of the battle, and hurled column after column of infantry upon them in simple, useless slaughter.
In obedience to orders, the men plunged into the bayou, where both banks were covered by tangled abatis, and where the bayou presents a quicksand bed 30 feet wide, containing water fifteen feet wide and three feet deep. The enemy rifle pits beyond were filled with sharp- shooters, whose every bullet drew blood. The gunners had the range of the ford, such as it was, and poured grape and cannister into the
28
HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY
dauntless but rapidly decimated ranks. Toiling like heroes, General Sherman's men essaycd to stem the storm until an order was received to fall back. It was raining all the time, and stung by the conscious- ness that they had fruitlessly thrown away many valuable lives, they retired sullenly from the contest. During the rainy night which fol- lowed the battle, the Ninety-seventh Illinois stood or lay without fire, in the swamp bordering the execrated bayou, but the next morning they were embarked and returned to Milliken's Bend. On January 10 and 11, 1863, this regiment took part in the reduction of Arkansas Post, or Fort Hindman as it is sometimes called, where they, as usual, displayed their high courage and valor.
On January 15, the regiment moved down the river to Young's Point, where it remained until March 6, and then returned to Milli- ken's Bend, and on April 15, marched to Grand Gulf. On May 1, it, together with other troops, was engaged at Port Gibson, Miss., and on May 16, at Champion Hills, where it rendered good service. The regiment arrived in the rear of Vicksburg on May 19, and participated in the siege of that place until its capitulation July 4, 1863.
Scarcely had the Confederate colors been hauled down on this stronghold, than General Sherman started for Jackson, Miss., where General Joseph Johnston was securely fortified, and with General Sherman's column, was the Ninety-seventh Illinois. This regiment participated in all the mancuvers that led to the downfall of Jackson, Miss., and then returned to Vicksburg, where it remained until August 25. On that date, it was embarked for New Orleans, and went into camp at Carrollton, near that city upon their arrival on August 27. The regiment was mustered out of the service July 29, 1865, at Gal- veston, Tex., and arrived at Camp Butler, Ill., August 13, 1865, where it received its discharge.

HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY
On October 8, the regiment moved to Columbus, Ky., and from there to Trenton, Tenn. On November 12, Companies A, D, and F moved to Humboldt, that state, but upon December 18, the regiment was transferred to Jackson, to defend that place against Forrest. They marched in pursuit of the enemy as far as Lexington, Tenn., but returned to Jackson, December 21, In the meanwhile, the enemy, under General Forrest, captured Trenton, together with the sick in the hospital at that place, among whom were Major Chapman and sixty men of the One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois. On learning of this catastrophe, the remainder of the regiment set out in pursuit of General Forrest's command, on December 27. On December 31, the One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois was engaged at Parker's Crossroads, in conjunction with detachments from the Thirty-ninth Iowa, Fiftieth Indiana, and Eighteenth Illinois regiments of in- fantry, and captured seven pieces of artillery and 500 prisoners. The loss of the One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois was one officer and twenty-two privates killed, and fifty-six wounded, Colonel Rinaker was severely wounded.
On February 17, 1863, the regiment moved to Corinth, and on April 15, it left Corinth, being engaged at Town Creek on April 25. It moved to Saulsbury on June 25, and to Iuka on October 30, Colonel Rinaker commanding the post at each place. The regiment did effective service in this line of duty, and during the summer of 1864, Companies E, H and K were engaged in defending Paducah, Ky., against the assaults of General Forrest, and in repelling three attacks on Fort Anderson. On June 26, 1864, it was transported to Memphis, Tenn., and was assigned to the First Brigade, Third Division, and joined the command of Gen. A. J. Smith.
On July 14, the One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois was en- gaged at Tupelo, Miss., and met with the loss of Capt. Josiah Burroughs and nine enlisted men killed and twenty-three wounded, and returned to Memphis, arriving there July 23. It was also engaged in garrison and guard duty at Holly Springs, Ark., and on September 8, moved to Cairo, Ill., and on September 12 to Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, Mo. It was a participant in the campaign in Missouri, during 1864, which consisted principally in a pursuit of General Price. The regiment em- barked for Nashville, Tenn., November 24, 1864, and on December 15 and 16, was engaged in the battle of Nashville, at which time General Thomas gathered all the men within reach, for the defense of that city, and among the regiments thus called to him was the One Hundred and
288
HISTORY OF JERSEY COUNTY
Twenty-second Illinois, whose men did valiant service upon that san- guinary field. On December 16, the battle raged with increasing fury, until General Thomas ordered a grand charge, during which the Con- federate forces were driven out of their entrenchments in headlong flight. The Union cavalry thundered on their heels with remorseless energy, the infantry following closely behind. Almost the entire Con- federate force was dissolved into a rabble of demoralized fugitives, who, at last, escaped across the Tennessee. The war in the west, so far as the great movements were concerned, was practically at an end, but the gallant One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois was not through with its days of battle, for, on April 3, 1865, it joined the forces before Fort Blakesley, and upon April 9 participated in the assault upon that strong- hold, losing twenty killed and wounded. On April 12, it marched to Montgomery, Ala., arriving there on April 26, where it remained until the latter part of May. On June 4, it embarked at Providence Landing. and steamed down the Alabama River to Mobile, where it was mustered out of the service, July 15, 1865.
The men from Jersey County who served in the One Hundred and Twenty-second Illinois Volunteer Infantry were as follows: Company C, second lieutenant, S. L. Chapman; sergeant, Asa Powell; corporal, W. W. Miles; privates, S. A. Ayers, William Bult, Daniel Cassey, S. P. Davis, Philip Egelhoff, J. D. Miles, Elijah Matthews, Samuel Ryan. J. D. Sego, T. J. Upton, J. D. Carll, D. B. Davis, William Davenport, W. L. Jackson, W. C. Osborn, Sam Arter, M. A. Bill, G. R. Clowers, Garrison Eveland, J. W. Fitzgerald, W. H. Myers, J. M. Phipps, W. L. Spear, A. J. Spencer, J. H.

Sloan, of Chicago, colonel ; John H. Howe. lieutenant ; R. P. Pattison, major; and William E. Smith, adjutant. It was mustered into the service of the United States by Lieutenant DeCourcey.

On October 3, the regiment received orders to go to the front, and leaving Camp Butler moved to Jackson, Tenn., where it arrived October 9, and was assigned a place in the Third Brigade, First Division, Thirteenth Army Corps. On November 14, it moved to La Grange, and on November 28, drove
289

the enemy across the Tallahatchie River and advanced to the Yacona River. The regiment was then in the First Brigade, Col. John E. Smith; Third Division, Brig. Gen. John A. Logan; of the Seventeenth Army Corps, Gen. James B. McPherson.
On February 13, 1863, they moved down the Mississippi River to Lake Providence, and on March 17, went into camp at Berry's Landing. On April 18, the regiment moved to Milliken's Bend, and on April 25, commenced with the other troops the campaign that ended in the surren- der of Vicksburg. On April 30, it took part in the sanguinary and hotly contested battle at Thompson's Hill, and gained imperishable laurels. In the engagement at Raymond, Jackson and Champion Hills, May 12, 14 and 16, respectively, during the entire siege of Vicksburg, including the assault on Fort Hill, they performed a heroic part. After the surrender of that redoubtable place, they rested until August 31, when they entered upon the campaign to Monroe, La., and thence to Brownsville, and were engaged in the two days' battle at the latter place on October 16 and 17. The regiment went into camp at Black River, November 7, and on November 27, engaged in a prize drill wtih five other regiments, and carried off the palm.
At a subsequent contest for a prize banner, the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth Illinois received the flag inscribed, "Excelsior Regiment, Third Division, Seventh Corps," from the hands of Maj. Gen. Mc- Pherson, for excelling in soldierly appearance, discipline and drill. On February 3, 1864, the regiment entered upon the famous Meridian expe- dition, and returned to Vicksburg, March 4. It was engaged at Benton, May 7 and 10, once more returning to Vicksburg on May 21, and in July moved with . General Slocum in his Jackson campaign, and was engaged in the sharp fight at Jackson Crossroads on July 5 and 7. In October, the regiment was in the campaign to White River and Mem- phis, when once more a return was made to Vicksburg, where the regi- ment remained until February 25, 1865, doing guard and provost duty, when it was moved to New Orleans. On March 12, it embarked for Mobile, Ala., moved to Dauphin Island, and up Fish River, and com- menced the siege of Spanish Fort. The regiment was the extreme left of the investing line, and, with one-half deployed as skirmishers, drove the enemy within their fortifications. The regiment was mustered out at Chicago, August 15, 1865.
The men who served from Jersey County in the One Hundred and Twenty-fourth Illinois Volunteer Infantry were as follows : Company C, first lieutenant, John W. Terry ; sergeants, N. C. Beatie and J. J. White ;
