little to disturb the monotony of camp life until the middle of August. About the Ist of Au- gust, a guerilla party had captured some steam- boats a short distance above Paducah, and took from them several hundred cattle and horses. Gen. Payne, who was commanding the Depart- ment of Northern Kentucky, ordered Col. Davi- son to take four hundred of his men and go and take from the rebel farmers living in the counties adjoining the river where the capture was made as many cattle and horses as had been taken from the boats. Some of the stock was recaptured, and enough others taken as directed to make good the loss, Two or three of the ringleaders of the guerilla party were also captured. After the return from this ex- pedition, the regiment remained at Cairo doing garrison duty until the 25th of September. It was then ordered to Peoria to be mustered out of the service. But the time had not come yet. Gen. Price with a large rebel force was march- ing toward St. Louis, and there were not enough troops to defend it that could be spared from other places. President Lincoln sent a dis- patch to Col. Davison requesting him to take his regiment and go at once to St. Louis. The President was aware the regiment had already served beyond the time for which it was en- listed. As soon as the circumstances were explained to the men, they were ready to go. For this prompt response, the President wrote a letter to the men of the regiment expressing his thanks and commending them for their patriotism.
We soon arrived in St. Louis and pushed out in the direction of Franklin to meet Gen. Price. Whether it was because he heard that the One Hundred and Thirty-ninth was coming, or for some other cause, the writer never learned; but so it was, that the rebel General soon de- cided it was to his advantage to move to the southern part of the State. We followed ag fast as possible, but failed to catch him. Hav- ing driveu him to a remote part of the State, we were again ordered to Peoria, where we were mustered out of the service on the 25th of October, 1864, having been in the service nearly five months.
WAR HISTORY.
THE ELEVENTH ILLINOIS CAVALRY.
The Eleventh Illinois Cavalty was recruited at Camp Lyon, Peoria, Ill., in the months of September, October and November, 1861, from Peoria, Fulton, Knox and Woodford Counties. Tazewell and Logan Counties furnished one company. The regiment was mustered into the service of the United States December 20, 1861; was kept under close discipline until about the 2d of February, 1862, when the reg- iment was ordered to Benton Barracks, Mis- souri, where the regiment continued drill and saber exercise till about the 20th of March, when it was ordered to report to Gen. Grant, at Pittsburg Landing, where the regiment ar-
rived one week before the battle at Shiloh, at which battle the Eleventh took part ; and after the battle, was on the famous long march on Corinth. After the evacuation of that place, the Eleventh was stationed there for a short time, guarding the lines of railroads leading to that place. From there it was ordered to Jackson, Tenn., and put on same duty, till early in the Spring of 1863, when it was ordered to Grand Junction ; in Fall of 1863, was ordered to Vicksburg. The Eleventh was in active service from the time of landing at Pittsburg Landing. in the Spring of 1862, un- til mustered out of service. The principal battles in which this regiment was engaged were the battles of Shiloh, Corinth, Iuka, Lex- ington, Tenn ; Parker's Cross Roads, Tenn., and many small engagements with what were called bush whackers.
