HISTORY OF THE
Sergeant Frederick Figalla, late of the Marion battalion, re- paired to St. Joseph, Missouri, to recruit a company. About that time the surrender of Lexington, Missouri, under Col. Jas. A. Mulligan, took place. The 13th Missouri Vol. Infty, com- · manded by Col. Everett Peabody, was one of this command.
The officers of the late Marion Battalion were not slow in taking advantage of the situation in recruiting a company from the survivors of this command, and November 1, 1861 the company reported to the Fiftieth Ill. Vol. Infty, in camp at Chillicothe, Mo., and perfected & temporary organization with the following officers : Captain, T. D. McGillicuddy ; 1st Lieu- tenant. Jefferson White; 2nd Lieutenant. Joseph C. Hart; Or- derly Sergeant, Harry A. Houston.
Subsequently the regiment was ordered into winter quar- ters at St. Joseph, Mo. December 15, 1861, William A. Shane, late of the 16th Illinois Infantry, reported to the regiment with a detachment of recruits and was assigned to company K.
December 26th, 1861, a delegation from Hannibal, Mo., headed by Capt. Robert Tufts, appeared on dress parade and presented company K with a beautiful silk flag, and Captain McGillicuddy, on behalf of the company, accepted the same.
To satisfactorily equip the company with officers the following order was issued from regimental headquarters :
HEADQUARTERS 50TH ILL. VOLS., St. Joseph, Mo .. Jan. 8th, 1862.

.
January 21, 1862, the regiment left St. Joseph, Mo., for a more active field of operation. The company shared in the fcrunes of the regiment from muster-in to muster-out.
The company was generally known and called by the 1.use of the command "the battery company," by reason of a used movement made by it at the charge on Fort Donelson, . 15. 1862, in obedience to the order of its commander, which a'd be distinctly heard above the din and clash of arms and rar of artillery-"attention K company, skin your eyes."
June 20th, 1862, at Corinth, Lieut. William A. Shane's res- ation was accepted. Subsequently Edward Jonas, of Quincy, member of company C, was commissioned 2nd Lieutenant and assigned to company K to supply vacancy made by Shane's isnation. Lieut. Jonas was immediately detailed on the :tax of General B. M. Prentiss.
In August 1863, at Corinth, 1st Sergeant Harry A. Hous- 2 was transferred by promotion, as Captain of company C 1st obama Infty A. D. This command consisted of two regi- areorganized at the contraband corral at Corinth, and prov- A very serviceable.

Ebersole were promoted from the ranks to 1st and 2nd Lieu- tenants.
At Louisville, Kentucky, the company with the regiment was mustered out of the United States service by reason of the "Cruel war being over."
Capt. Timothy D. McGillicuddy was born in Louisville. Ky., Dec. 1st. 1835, where his father was then engaged in constructing a ship canal around the falls of Ohio.
At an early day he moved with his parents, Dan- iel and Julia A. McGillicud- dy, to Cleveland, Ohio, where he received a good common school education, graduating Afrom the Central High School! in 1854.
In 1856 he removed to Hannibal, Mo., where he was CAPTAIN T. D. M'GILLICUDDY. engaged in railroading up to the breaking out of the war, during which time he took part in the political affairs of the day, especially in the organiza- tion of the free State of Kansas ..
When the dark cloud of war burst upon the country, he was not slow or backward in defining his position. Prior to that he cast his first Presidential vote for Abraham Lincoln, and raised the first American flag, ( the stars and stripes, ) over his abiding place in Hannibal, Mo., in February 1861.
At the first war meeting held in Hannibal, March 15. '61. he was one of a committee of five appointed to organize a com- mand for the protection of the loyal citizens of North East Missouri. This resulted in the organization of the Marion Bat- talion, United States Reserve Corps, of Hannibal. Mo.

was tendered the Government through Gen. W. S. Harney then commanding at St. Louis, but was rejected on account of State neutrality. Soon afterward Gen. Nathaniel Lyon succeeded Gen. Harney and at Once accepted the proffered service, order- ing the command to St. Louis to be mustered, armed and equip- pod. Gen. Lyon attending personally to all the details of the business.
The command returned to Hannibal on a war footing and entered active military service in North, East and West Mis- souri until relieved by the 21st Illinois Inf'ty Vols., then com- manded by Col. Ulysses S. Grant.
July 4th, 1861, the loyal ladies of Hannibal, through their representative, George H. Shields, a gallant, loyal son of the South, presented company B of this command a beautiful stand of silk colors, and Lieutenant McGillicuddy, then com- manding the company, accepted the same on their behalf.
He participated in all the engagements of this command from the capture of Camp Jackson and streets of St. Louis to Wilson's Creek. Mo., Aug. 10th, 1861.
September 5th, 1861, this command was mustered out of service. In the mean time Lieut. McGillicuddy received au- thority from Gen. John C. Fremont to organize a company for the war and was not slow in taking advantage of the opportu- nities presented at the surrender of Lexington, Mo., by Colonel Mulligan, Sept. 19, 1861. in organizing another company from the survivors of the surrender and attaching it to an Illinois command.
On October 5th, 1861, he was commissioned Captain of company K. Fiftieth III. Infty Vols. and participated in all the theagements of this command from the taking of Fort Henry, Tono .. to the fall of Savannah, Ga.
He was sick with typhoid fever at Corinth, Miss., from Mar to October 1862, and on his recovery to health was detailed a- member of a general court martial, subsequently as post offi- vor yi the day, in which capacity he served about one year. He Was mastered out of service at Savannah, Ga., Jan. 1, 1865.

Captain McGillicuddy had two brothers in the late war, Daniel W. and John II., of Chicago, JII., both served in compa- ny J, 6th Ohio Vol. Inf'ty.
In 1884 Captain McGillicuddy was compelled to give up active business pursuits by reason of continued ill health, and seek relief in the mountains of Colorado, during which time he succeeded in organizing the Society of Illinois Ex-Soldiers in Colorado and became the first President, with William E.

He is now, (1893), engaged as military historian and his 1 home and address is Akron, Ohio.
The following interesting story of service from Lieut. Edward Jonas, is worthy of place in this volume :
"I entered the service with the Quincy Cadets under T. W. Letton, joining a Payson contingent forming company C of the Fiftieth, and remain- ed with the regiment as a private of that company in North Missouri until the reg- iment was orderedto Tennes- seo. There I was detailed as orderly by Gen. B. M. Pren- tiss and at Shiloh, owing to lack of staff officers I presume he used me as an A. D. C., and I was captured with him, returning from prison in Oc- tober, '62. I was promoted to 2nd Lieut. of company K, Fif- tieth Ill. Infty, Nov. 6, 62 and by order of Gen. Grant LIEUT. EDWARD JONAS. detached and ordered to report as A. D. C. to Gen. Prentiss. During the Vicksburg campaign was there off and on during the seige, but was present with Gen. Prentiss when he so sig- nally defeated Price and Holmes, with four times his own force, at Helena, Ark., July 4th, 1863. Prentiss shortly after resign- ing I was transferred to the staff of Gen. Hurlburt, our corps commander, and upon his being ordered to New Orleans I asked to be ordered to rejoin the regiment. Arriving at Kingston, Ga., I found the Fiftieth was at Rome, separated from the main army and with no present means of communication, and was instructed by Gen. G. M. Dodge to accompany him until I could reach the regiment.
Shortly afterwards I was detailed as A. D. C. to General Dodge and remained with him during the Atlanta campaign,

HISTORY OF THE
until his wound compelled him to go north. His staff accom- panied him. As I left a commission, which had followed me for months, as Captain of company K reached me, but as the company had not men enough to justify my muster it was of no service, so was mustered out April 29, 1865.
Shortly afterwards I was commissioned Captain and A. D. C. U. S. Vols., Brevet Major and Brevet Lieut. Col., and ac- companied Gen. Dodge to the Department of the Missouri, and the war ending took the field with him in 1865, against the In- dians, and was finally mustered out of service in the winter of 1866.
While detached I never lost my interest in the gallant Fiftieth, where so many of my friends and old schoolmates were making glorious records, and have no prouder recollections than that of having been private soldier as well as officer in its ranks. To all old comrades I extend fraternal greeting.
Yours,
EDWARD JONAS, Cora Plantation, White Castle P. O., Louisiana." Capt.

unmarried, residing in Clinton county, Mo., enlisted on the 1st day of November, 1861, as a private in company K. Was at the battles of Forts Henry and Donelson, Shiloh and seige of Cor- inth, where he contracted chronic diarrhea, resulting in being sent to Keokuk, Iowa, in June and his discharge September 29, '62. Concerning his service he says-"having previously enlist- ed, July 23, 1861, in company C, 13th Mo. Inf'ty and mustered out Oct. 26, '61, re-enlisted Nov. 1, 1861, in company K, and having been mustered out in Sept. 1862, for disability, was so far recovered that on October 9, 1863, re-enlisted in company B 12th Mo. cavalry and was mustered out April 9, '66." He also says: "I am glad to know that the history of the "Blind Half" is being written. A reminder of the dark days of the rebelion ; of the times that tried men's souls. Although I was only a short time with it, I feel proud of the record it has made. I was one among the first men to enlist in company K; was boarding at a hotel in St. Joe when Capt. T. D. McGil- licuddy came there to enlist men for his company, and assisted him in securing enlistments among the men of the 13th Mo. Infty who were then on parole, having been captured at Lex- ington, Mo., Sept. 30, 61."

Was talking with Corporal Dane the night before he was wounded and asked the Corporal why he did not write to his wife to relieve her from anxiety and fear that he might be killed, he replied, "the rebel ball is not yet moulded to kill me."
