COMPANY F.
This company was recruited in McDonough county, Ill., and called the Bushnell Light Guards in honor of the town in which it was organ- ized. The largest share of the work of enlistment was done by the Rev- erends William A. Presson, Milton L. Haney and Harrison Presson, three enthusiastic and patriotic ministers of the Methodist faith. Rev. W. A. Presson was at the time captain of a company afterwards known as A in

the 55th infantry, and already in Camp Douglas. Rev. M. L. Hancy and H. Presson, being in charge of adjacent circuits, had conferred with each other and resolved to enter the military service together. The eloquent efforts of these three ministers, aided by certain soldierly exhibitions of Lieutenant Palmer and Corporal J. H. Presson, with a specimen of the famous revolving rifle-the weapon with which all recruits were promised they should be armed -- secured eighty enlistments between October 3d and Hth, from the towns of Bushnell, Prairie City and Marietta.
On the afternoon of the 11th an election for officers and non-commis- sioned officers, was held near what is now West Park in Bushnell, which resulted in the choice of M. L. Haney as captain, H. Presson as first-lieu- tenant, Joseph W. Parks as second-lieutenant, and James M. Shreves as orderly-sergeant. On the evening of Saturday, the 12th, several other recruits having been enrolled, the company started for Chicago. The captain was presented with an elegant sword, and the company with a national flag by the citizens, hundreds of whom assembled at the station to bid the soldiers good bye. Upon the muster-in of the 55th, the Bush- nell Light Guards became Company T of that regiment.
March 14, 1862, Captain Haney was persuaded to resign and accept the post of regimental chaplain. Lieutenant Pressou had left the regi- ment a few days earlier. Second-Lieutenant Squire A. Wright of Com- pany C, was thereupon made captain of F against the urgent remon- strance of the whole company, in which there was abundance of excellent material for officers. Lieutenant Parks was at the same date promoted one step, and Sergeant J. B. Jolison of Company A, was appointed to the vacant place of second-lieutenant. July 1, 1862, Casper Schliech of Company A, was promoted to the captaincy, made vacant by the death of Captain Wright, and Lieutenant L. B. Crooker of Company I, was pro- moted to the same position, after Captain Schliech had fallen in battle. The four officers thus transferred to Company F were the only ones it had, not from its own ranks. They were all brave and efficient, filling their positions with great credit. Captains Wright and Schliech lost their lives leading their men in battle, and Captain Crooker was disabled by wounds.
Company F was with the regiment on every occasion, excepting during the short and bloodless expedition to Columbus, Ky. Sixteen of its men- bers re-enlisted at the end of their three years' service. Giles F. Hand rose from its ranks to be the last major of the regiment. Six of its mem- bers were transferred as officers to other organizations. There were in it eleven pairs and one group of three brothers ;-- of the twenty-five, two were killed in action, two mortally wounded, three died of disease, and ten others were struck by rebel missiles. One hundred and fourteen names in all were borne upon the company rolls; among them were the following casualties: Killed in action, 10; wounded, 43; died of wounds, 6; died of disease, 16; discharged for wounds, 12; discharged for other disability, 20; captured, 2; deserted, 3; transferred to V. R. C., 5; re- signed, 4.
