HISTORY OF ST. CLAIR COUNTY, ILLINOIS.
Dec. 31st, 1862, and Jan. 1st and 2d, 1863, where it lost 199 out of 342 men, in action. Lieut. Col. Swanwick was wounded and taken prisoner, and was confined at Atlanta and Richmond (Libby), until May, 1863.
The regiment was in camp at Murfreesboro, and different points around that place, forag- ing and skirmishing through the winter and spring. Early in June, marched southward, with the army of the Cumberland. Partici- pated in the battle of Chickamauga, Sept. 19th and 20th, on the right of the army under Gen. Sheridan, and lost 135 officers and men, out of an aggregate of less than 300. This was a severe engagement, in proof of which, the regiment lost 96 men in less than ten minutes in action on the 19th. Among others the brave Maj. Johnson was very severely wounded, and Captain French mortally.
It remained in and around Chattanooga, suffering in common with the rest of the army, from exposure and want of provisions, being frequently on less than half rations, and almo-t destitute of clothing, tents, etc., until November 26th, when with the remainder of Gen. Sheridan's division, it was engaged in storming Mission Ridge, losing again between 30 and 40, out of a mere skeleton to which they had been previously reduced. The few remaining men, fit for duty, marched about the last of the month to the relief of Knox- ville. The greater part of the severe winter of 1863-4, was passed in the mountains of East Tennessee.
In the month of January. 1864, marched to Dandridge, in pursuit of Gen. Longstreet's army-retreating at night over terrible roads, to Strawberry Plains. Thence marched through Knoxville to Louden, Tenn., where they built log huts, and remained some weeks ; and here, March 6th, 1864, they received the first full rations since leaving Bridgeport, being fully six months. The regiment marched from here to Cleaveland, Tenn., where it re- mained until the scanty remnant joined the grand army of Gen. Sherman, on the Atlanta campaign. Was engaged at Resaca, two days, having about 20 men killed and wounded, and in all the other battles and skirmishes, with the exception of Rocky Face, (was eleven days and nights under fire at New Hope Church), until the morning of the 10th of June, when all but the recruits and veterans were ordered to Springfield, Illinois for muster-out.
