part in the engagement at that place. Returning to Vicksburg, it took transports in August for New Orleans, whence it moved to Berwick Bay. While in this portion of Louisiana, the Forty- seventh participated in Bank's expedition through the Teche country, engaging the enemy at Grand Coteau. It then moved to New Iberia, and while there, in December, 1863, the regiment re-enlisted, and on the 9th of February, 1864, started for home on veteran furlough, reaching Indianapolis on the 18th with 416 veterans. On the 19th it was present at a public reception given to the veterans of the Twenty-first and Forty-seventh regiments at Metropolitan Hall in that city, on which occasion addresses were made by Gov. Morton, Col. Slack and others.


" Upon its return to the field the regiment moved with Bank's army up Red River in the spring of 1864, engaging in the battles, marches and retreats of that unfortunate campaign. On the 28th of July it engaged the enemy at Atchafalaya Bayou, Louisiana, losing several wounded. The regiment was then sta- tioned at Morganza, at which post it remained on duty for some time. On the 3ist of December, 1864, Col. Slack was commis- sioned a Brigadier General, whereupon John A. Mclaughlin was promoted Colonel of the regiment. In February, 1865, it was transported to Dauphin Island, Alabama, near Mobile, and in Canby's campaign against that city the Forty-seventh took an active part. After the fall of Mobile it moved to Sherveport, Louisiana, with Gen. Herron, to receive the surrender of Gen. Price and the army of the Trans-Mississippi Department. At this place the regiment remained until the 23d of October, 1865, when it was mustered out of service. Reaching Indianapolis with 530 men and thirty two officers it was present on the ist of November at a reception given to the regiment in the Capitol grounds, and was addressed by Gov. Morton, Gen. Slack, Cols. M. S. Robinson and John A. McLaughlin. The next day the reg- iment was finally discharged."


Out of the 200 that were enrolled in the regiment at the date of its organization from this county, about one-half re-enlisted as veterans. Adding these to the 206 original enlisted men and 112 recruits, gives a total credit in this regiment to Huntington County of more than 400.


Taken in the order of their number the Seventy-fifth was the next regiment in which Huntington County men were conspic- uous. In that regiment companies E and H were almost wholly composed of men from this county. Company E was officered as follows: Captains, David H. Wall, August 1, 1862: David L. Elliott, February 2, 1863; First Lieutenants, George W. Goode, August 1, 1862; Robert B. Beatty, February 2, 1863; John W. Zehrung, March 18, 1865; Second Lieutenants, Jacob S. Goshorn, August 1, 1862; David L. Elliott, November 14, 1864; Jacob W. Crum, February 2, 1863; John W. Zehrung, March 17, 1863; Will- iam Keller, March 18, 1865. Lieut. Crum died March 16, 1863. The men for this company were from Huntington and Warren,

at least seventy-two being from this county. The first enroll- ment comprised ninety-nine names, and eight were afterwards added as recruits. Twenty-two of these died while in the service.


Company H had the Iollowing officers: Captains, William O. Jones, August 6, 1862; William McGinnis, December 31, 1862; William M. Wilkerson, November 1, 1864; First Lieutenants, William McGinnis, August 6, 1862; John B. Collins, December 31, 1862; William M. Wilkerson, January 18, 1863; William Riley, November 1, 1864; Second Lieutenants, John B. Collins, August 6, 1862; William Wilkerson, December 31, 1862; William Riley, January 18, 1863; Sylvester Strock, May 1, 1865. All of these were from Roanoke, as were also the greater part of the whole company. At the outset there were ninety-nine men, and the total recruits were six. Of these eighty one were credited to Huntington County. Twenty-three died in the service and one deserted. Captain McGinnis died a prisoner of war at Savannah, Ga., August 31, 1864. In the roster of regimental officers there are but two names from this county. Abner H. Shaffer was commissioned Assistant Surgeon, May 27, 1863, and upon his promotion to the office of Surgeon Francis M. Tumbleson, of Roanoke, was made Assistant Surgeon.


Upon the organization of the regiment John U. Pettit was made Colonel out of some eight or ten candidates for that posi- tion, among which was Jacob S. Goshorn, of Huntington. The camp of rendezvous was at Wabash, where the regiment was mustered in, August 19, 1862. It at once moved to Kentucky, in which state it remained until January, 1863, taking part in the campaigns against Bragg and Morgan. From January to June it was stationed at Murfreesboro, doing scouting and other arduous duty, and serving in what was known as the Indiana Brigade, composed of the Seventy-fifth, Eighty-seventh and One Hundred and First Indiana Regiments. It was at the battle of Hoover's Gap, and at Tullahoma was first to enter to enter the rebel works. Under Rosecrans it took part in the battle at Chat- tanooga, September 19 and 20; was in the engagement at Chica- mauga, losing seventeen killed and 107 wounded; at Mission Ridge, losing five killed and seventeen wounded. After spending the winter in the vicinity of Chattanooga the regiment, in the spring of 1864, started in the Atlanta campaign in which it marched and fought with the Second Brigade, Third Division, Fourteenth Army Corps. It took part in the battles at Dalton, Resacca, Dallas, Kenesaw Mount, Peach tree Creek and Jones- boro. After pursuing Hood as far as Gaylesville it returned to Atlanta and started with Sherman's Army to the sea. It started from Savannah, in January, 1865, northward through the Caro- linas and participated in the battles at Bentonville, Fayetteville and skirmishes. After the surrender of Johnson's Army it marched to Richmond and Washington, where it was discharged June 8, 1865. On the 14th it was given a public reception with other regiments at the Capitol Grounds, in Indianapolis. The

total number furnished to this regiment from Huntington County was 153 men, in addition to officers.


In the Fifth Cavalry (90th) Regiment there were fifteen men from Huntington County ; ten in Company A and five in D. Till- man H. Fisher, of Mt. Etna, became First Lieutenant of Com- pany A, the only officer from this county in the regiment.


The One Hundred and First Regiment contained twenty- nine men from this county. as follows: Company A, seven; F, six; G, thirteen; I, one, and K. two. The only officer credited to this county was La Fayette Messler, of Markle, First Lieutenant in Company G.


The One Hundred and Eighteenth Regiment was raised in the summer of 1863, for the term of six months. The Major of the regiment was Henry B. Sayler, a man well known in Huntington County. Company G was very largely composed of men from this county, and was officered as follows: Captains, Henry B. Sayler, July 20, 1863; Joel Satterth waite, September 4, 1863; First Lieutenants, Joel Satterthwaite, July 20, 1863; Allen C. Simonton, September 4, 1863; Second Lieutenants, Allen C. Simonton, July 20, 1863; Samuel McNeely, September 4, 1863. Out of the ninety- nine men at the organization of the company, fifty-six were from Huntington County. Eleven died and two deserted. This regi- ment was engaged almost exclusively in Tennessee. The princi- pal engagement in which it took part was at Walker's Ford, on the Clinch River, where it lost one, killed, and fourteen wounded. " After this battle the regiment moved to Tazewell and other portions of the mountainous regions of East Tennessee, doing most arduous duty, and suffering many privations." It was dis- charged at Indianapolis, about the middle of February, 1864. This regiment was raised under the President's fourth call for troops, June 15, 1863, asking for 100,000 men for six month's ser- vice.


By the fifth call dated October 17, 1863, President Lincoln asked for 300,000 men to serve three years or during the war. Under this call the efforts to raise troops by volunteering were renewed all over the north. But in many localities these efforts were not sufficient, and the draft was resorted to. The first draft in Indiana occurred October 6, 1862, under the call for 300,000 men and under that call the quota for Huntington County was 148, distributed among the townships as follows: Clear Creek, six- teen; Warren, seventeen; Huntington, fifty-two; Rock Creek, sixteen; Lancaster, fifteen; Wayne, twelve; Jefferson, twenty. The other townships had furnished their full quota. H. B. Sayler was appointed Draft Commissioner for the county, James M. Bratton, Marshal and William B. Lyons, Surgeon. The quota for Huntington County under the fifth call October 17, 1863, was 185, but these were all raised without resorting to the draft. These men nearly all went into the One Hundred and Thirtieth and One Hundred and Thirty First regiments; the last organized as a cavalry regiment.

MILITARY HISTORY.


In the One Hundred and Thirtieth Regiment, Company D was entirely composed of Huntington County men, numbering ninety-three. Its officers. were: Captains, Joseph W. Purviance, December 22, 1863, Aurelius S. Purviance, March 2, 1864; First Lieutenants, Aurelius S. Purviance, December 22, 1863; Martin V. Record, March 2, 1864, Francis H. B. Glanton, January 28, 1865; Second Lieutenants, Martin V. Record, December 22, 1863, F. H. B. Glanton, March 2, 1864, Jethro M. Boyd, January 28, 1865. Capt. Joseph W. Purviance was promoted Major March 1, 1864. Jacob W. Kenower, of Huntington, was appointed Quar- ter-master.


In Company H, James S. Purviance was Second Lieutenant, which position he held at the date of discharge, although he had been commissioned Captain. The regiment contained a total of 128 men from this county, as follows: Company B, one; D, ninety-three; F, twelve; G, one; H, fourteen, and I, seven.


After being mustered into service at Kokomo, March 12, 1864, the regiment was transferred to Tennessee. It was engaged at Rocky Face Ridge, Resacca, Lost Mountain, Pine Mountain, Ken- esaw Mountain and Decatur. It was engaged in the campaign against Atlanta, taking a prominent part. It was at the battle of Jonesboro, pursued Hood as far as Gaylesville and afterward moved to Nashville, where, under Gen. Thomas in the two days' fight Hood's army was destroyed. Soon after this it was trans- ferred to North Carolina, by way of Cincinnati, Washington and Ft. Fisher. It was at Wise's Forks, Kingston, Goldsboro and Smithfield. While at the last named place it received the news of Gen. Lee's surrender. The surrender of Johnston's army soon after put an end to the war. During the summer and fall of 1865 the regiment was on guard duty at Charlotte, N. C. It was dis- charged in December, 1865, and on its arrival at Indianapolis was given a public reception at the State House.


In the Thirteenth Cavalry (131st) Regiment there was one company from Huntington County. Its position was A, and the commissioned officers were: Captains, Isaac DeLong, December 20, 1863; David H. Wall, August 10, 1864; Silas A. Pulse, November 10, 1865; First Lieutenants, David A. Wall, December 20, 1863; Josiah H. Sabine, August 10, 1864; Silas A. Pulse, October 1, 1865; John J. Pribble, November 10, 1865; Second Lieutenants, J. H. Sabine, December 20, 1863; S. A. Pulse, August 10, 1864; J. J. Pribble, October 1, 1865; William O. Allen, November 10, 1865. Capt. DeLong was promoted Major of the regiment as was also Capt. Wall. The company started out with ninety-six men of which ninety-four were from this county. Of the nineteen recruits four were also from this county. This was the last cavalry regiment raised in Indiana. It was mustered into service April 29, 1864, and the next day it left Indianapolis for Nashville. Early in June it was stationed at Huntsville, Alabama, where it remained until October having several light engagements with the enemy. Until this time it

had been doing infantry service, but was then mounted and fully equipped as cavalry. Early in December companies A, C, D, F, H and I under Gen. Rousseau took part in the battles at Overall's Creek, Wilkinson's Pike and twelve skirmishes with a loss of sixtv-five men killed and wounded out of 325 engaged. February 11, 1865, it embarked on transports for New Orleans and from there early in March to Mobile Bay where, under Gen. Canby, it assisted in the operations against the forts and defenses of Mobile. After the fall of that place it started on a raid of 800 miles through Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi, under Gen. Grierson. It arrived at Columbus, Mississippi, May 22. From there it proceeded to Macon, garrisoning that point and sixty miles of railroad and taking possession of immense army supplies. In June it returned to Columbus where it remained until mustered out of service, November 18, 1865. At Indian- apolis the regiment received a public reception at the Soldiers' Home where speeches were made by Gov. Baker, Gen. T. W. Bennett, Gen. G. M. L. Johnson, the first colonel of the regiment, and Maj. Walls.


Early in 1864, the Governors of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin, offered to raise a volunteer force to serve 100 days. These troops were to do duty in the service of the United States, but were not to receive army bounty. They were to aid in making the campaign of 1864 more successful and decisive by relieving the veterans from guard and garrison duty, thus enabling them to join in the active campaigns. Eight of these 100 days' regiments were raised in Indiana. Huntington County furnished sixty-four men for this service, seventeen in Company E, One Hundred and Thirty seventh Regiment, and forty-seven in Company I, One Hundred and Thirty-eighth. In the latter company the officers were all from this county, and were: Benjamin F. Ward, Captain, Rhoades Armstrong and Robt. J. Miller, Lieutenants. They were all mustered in late in May, 1864, and served in Tenn- essee most of the time guarding railroads and lines of communi- cations used by Gen. Sherman for transporting supplies to his army then advancing on the Atlanta campaign.


Under the President's call for 300,000 men, December 19, 1864, the quota for Huntington County was 222. Of this number all but about fifty entered the service in the One Hundred and Fifty- third Regiment of Indiana Infantry. Company B contained seventy-five, and C, ninety-six of the men from this county. For Company B, the officers were: James H. S. Ford, Captain, Francis M. Clawson and John F. Becker, Lieutenants. For Company C, they were: Joseph Barrett, Captain, John H. Lucas and John W. Messersmith, Lieutenants. The regiments were mustered into service about the middle of February, 1865, and during its entire term of service was engaged in garrison duty in Kentucky, a large portion of the time at Taylor Barracks, Louisville. It was mustered out of the service September 4, 1865, and on its arrival

at Indianapolis was tendered the usual reception given to return- ing regiments. This was the last regiment in which Huntington County men were conspicuous. Of course there were a large number of men that enlisted in other organizations than these already mentioned. To give all these would be a task beyond the scope of this work and one that would be of little value.


In the Fourteenth Battery, Light Artillery which was mus- tered into the service March 11, 1862. Huntington County was rep- resented by twenty-two men. Lewis C. Williams, a Second Lieutenant was the only commissioned officer from this county.


The Indiana Legion was an extensive organization through- out the State for the purposes of home defense in case of need. It served another purpose, however, that proved more useful than as Home Guards. It was the medium through which many good soldiers were brought into the service, that perhaps, would not otherwise so readily have entered the active service of the United States. The drilling, too, was useful in preparing men to a considerable extent for the evolutions that were required in actual war. In other words it was a training school where men learned the rudiments of knowledge in war that so soon enabled them to perform in the face of the enemy like trained veterans. Huntington County had six of these companies in the Legion and the roster of the officers reveals the names of many who led companies into the field of battle.


The first draft in Indiana, occurred October 6, 1862, under the President's call of August 4, for 300,000 soldiers. The enrollment was made September 19, and at that time Huntington County was credited with a total militia force of 2,544. To be deducted this were 504 exempts, and forty-seven consciously opposed to bearing arms; leaving 1,993 subject to the draft. At that time the county was credited with 798 volunteers of which 751 were in the service. The quota apportioned to the county under this call was 148 distributed as elsewhere stated. Under the call for 300,000 men, October 11, 1863, the quota to Huntington County, was 185. The calls of February 1, March 14, and July 18, 1864 aggre- gating 1,200,000 men, required Huntington County to furnish 967 men. To offset this the county was credited with 730 new re- cruits, 148 veterans, and ninety-one by draft, a total of 969, or two more than was required. The quota under call of De- cember 19, 1864, was 222, and on April 14, 1865, the date at which all efforts to raise troops were abandoned, the county had a credit against this of 226 new recruits, 160 veterans and six by draft, a total of 392, or a surplus of 170. These figures show that Hunt- ington county furnished 2,590 men for the war, but if the men that were raised for the six months and 100 days' service should be added, it gives a grand total of 2,710. But of course it must not be supposed that the county furnished that many separate men for the war, as it did not. Many of them, on the expiration of the term of service for which they originally enlisted, would enter again, and in this way they were counted twice and some

of them three times. It is probable that not more than 1,800 or 1,900 persons were in the service from Huntington County, but even this is a good showing since the first enrollment of the militia showed only 2,551 within the proper age for bearing arms.


The following roll of honor includes all those who lost their lives while in the service-that is before receiving a final dis- charge. This is compiled from the Adjutant General's report, and doubtless contains many errors and omissions. It is the best that can well be prepared at this date and is given for what it is worth. Of course it does not include any who have died since the war, nor those who were commissioned officers.
