Richmond, Kentucky, and remained there about two months. About the 21st of December, went to Danville, Ky .; from Dan- ville to Louisville, thence to Nashville, Tenn., and went into camp. From Nashville to Franklin, and went into camp. In March, '63, under Baird and Atkins, they assisted in driving VanDorn across the Duck river, and then returned to camp and remained until June Ist, 1863. Went to Triune, Tenn., and June 24, with the Army of the Cumberland, drove Gen. Bragg across the Tennessee. Went into camp at Tullahoma, but soon marched towards Chattanooga, with a forced march across the Cumberland mountains to Ross- ville, Ga. On the 19th and 20th of September, engaged the enemy on the field of Chickamauga. In this engagement, lost five men from Macon county. After the engagement marched against Dalton, Ga .; returned to camp near Cleveland, Tenn .; remained there until the 3d day of May, then joined Sherman's Army on the Atlantic campaign. This regiment led the charge at Tunnel Hill, Ga., and engaged in battle at Resaca, Ga., on the 15th and 16th of May, 1864. This regiment took an active part in the engagements of November and December, 1864, which resulted in the destruc- tion of Bragg's old veteran army, known as the Army of the Ten- nessee, under Gen. Hood. The Brigade to which the 115th Illinois was attached for nearly two years was known as the " Iron Brig- ade."
On the 23d of December, 1864, while pursuing Hood in his re- treat from Nashville, Col. J. H. Moore of the 115th Illinois took command of this Brigade, of which the 115th was a part. This position he kept until the regiment was mustered out of service at the close of the war. The regiment went to Huntsville, Ala., and went into camp the 5th of Jan., 1865. On the 14th of March went into East Tennessee, then to Nashville, where it remained until it was mustered out of service at the close of the war, June II, 1865. Arrived at Camp Butler, Ill., June 16; received pay, and discharged, June 23.

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEENTH ILLINOIS INFANTRY.
The One Hundred and Sixteenth Regiment Illinois Volunteers was made up almost entirely from Macon county. The campanies began to go into camp in the fair ground, near Decatur, about the 15th August, 1862. They were sworn into the United States service on the 6th day of September, but ranks not being full, were only mustered as a battalion. On the 31st were mustered as a regiment. Left Decatur November Sth, arriving at Cairo on the 9th; left on the same evening for Memphis, where it remained until the 26th, during which time the Fifteenth Army Corps was organized under

the command of Gen. W. T. Sherman, and was assigned to the First Brigade, Second Division. The commander of this division was Maj .- Gen. Morgan L. Smith, and the brigade commander, Gen. Giles A. Smith. From Memphis marched to Tallahatchie, which was reached December 13th. On the 20th started down the Mississippi; entered the mouth of the Yazoo the 26th, and landed about fifteen miles above the mouth of that river. On the next day the battle of Chickasaw began, and continued until the 30th. This was the first engagement of the regiment. About the Ist of January, 1863, passed down the Yazoo, and sailed up the Missis- sippi and Arkansas rivers to Arkansas Post, where was fought the second battle in which this regiment was engaged, January 10 and II. On the 22d landed at Young's Point, La., opposite Vicks- burg. During the winter made attempts to get around Vicksburg by canals, etc. In the spring crossed the river near Port Gibson, and were under fire at Black River and Champion Hills, and were engaged in the bloody charges upon the works in the rear of Vicksburg, May 18 and 22, and were present at the surrender of that place, July 4th. The next morning started in search of Gen. Johnston, who was stationed beyond Black river; followed him until he took refuge in Jackson, Miss. By several engagements, drove him beyond the Pearl river. Went into camp near Black river, July 25th; the camp was called Camp Sherman. Here the regiment remained until about the first of October, then removed to Vicksburg, then sailed to Memphis, and then went to Corinth, and then marched for Chattanooga, which was reached November 2 Ist. On the night of the 23d the 116th, in company with the 6th Missouri, embarked in pontoon boats, floated down the Tennessee and landed at the mouth of the Chickamauga, within less than one mile of the enemy's entrenchments on Missionary Ridge, and held the position until the balance of the corps was brought over, and captured all of Bragg's pickets. Then marched to the foot of the ridge on the evening of the 24th; engaged in a skirmish in which Gen. Giles A. Smith was wounded, the command of the brigade devolving on Col. Tupper. On the 25th were present at the storming of Missionary Ridge. After this victory this regiment was marched to the relief of Knoxville, and was constantly on the move until the 9th of January, 1864; then went into winter quarters at Larkensville, Ala .; remained in quarters until May 16,

and was engaged in the charge and capture of Resaca; was at the battles of Dallas, May 25 to 28, and Big Shanty; next at Kenesaw Mountain, on 27th of June; thence crossed the Chattahoochie and fought the battle of Stone Mountain, and drove the enemy to the immediate vicinity of Atlanta, where the battle of June 22d was fought, recapturing the works after the enemy had taken them from us.
On the 28th fought the battle of Ezra Chapel, in which the enemy was badly beaten and driven back; moved up and formed lines within 800 yards of enemy, August 3d, at Atlanta, and en- gaged in the siege of that place, fighting the battle of Jonesboro, the 14th, which was virtually an end of the siege. After the bat- tle of Jonesboro, went into camp at Atlanta; remained there until orders were given to break camp and begin "Sherman's March to the Sea," with occasional skirmishes on the march, until the vicinity of Savannah was reached; then participated in the capture of Fort McAllister, on December 13. Then the regiment marched to Savannah, and entered that city December 21, and went into camp. Then took shipping and went to Beaufort, S. C., and marched thence to Pocatalago, and fought a battle there, and had general skirmishing until the city of Columbia was reached; went into camp after the burning of that city; moved thence to Bentonville, N. C., and had a severe battle; went into camp; moved thence to Raleigh, which surrendered without opposition; thence ordered to Washington, and went into camp and remained until ordered home to be mustered out of service, which was done June 7, 1865.
For some unaccountable reason, no mention is made of the noble record of this regiment in the Adjutant General's Reports. A similar omission is made in the Patriotism of Illinois. The brief history of the regiment above given, the author has prepared partly from the recollection of Capt. William Grason, and partly from memoranda furnished by Chaplain N. M. Baker, and Surgeon Ira N. Barnes. The citizens of Macon county have erected to the memory of the brave Col. Tupper, in Greenwood Cemetery, a monument, as a recognition of his services; and the long list of killed and wounded in battle, given below, will forever speak, louder than words, of the splendid record of the 116th.
