they could not obtain acceptance. On Monday, the fifteenth of April, a telegram was sent to Gen. Wallace, to which the following reply was returned : "Zouave Regiment and requisition all full. LEW WALLACE." Another despatch was sent, and the reply came:
" To A. Teegarden :- No chance to get in-no more companies can be received.
LEW WALLACE. "
The members of the company still did not despair, and on the same night, they met and elected officers: James H. Shannon, Captain; H. M. Brusie, first Lieutenant, J. E. Sweet, second Lieutenant ; A. H. Dustin, third Lieutenant; B. F. Coleman, Ensign; E. S. Abbey, first Sergeant; David Seeholtz, second Sergeant; Hiram Stewart, third Sergeant; Simon P. Montgomery, fourth Sergeant; S. R. Culp, first Corporal; Charles M. Berrick, second Corporal; N. M. Kinsley, third Corporal; Joseph Sutton, fourth Corporal.
Much to their regret, they were unable to get into any regiment at the time, but most of them afterwards joined the twentieth regi- ment for the three year's service. The names of the members are here given in full:

Meanwhile the citizens were actively engaged in devising ways and means for the care of soldiers' families, and the wants and necessities of the men who were leaving home so suddenly, without the opportunity to make proper preparations for their own comfort or that of their families. The following account of a meeting of the citizens held on the twenty-fourth day of April will show how promptly and effectively they came into the great relief work, which continued during the entire war:
" At a public meeting at Huntsman Hall on Wednesday after- noon, twenty-fourth instant, to consult about the great crisis we are now involved in and how it had better be met, on motion of Gen. Orr, Hon. Chas. W. Cathcart was elected President. On taking the chair Mr. Cathcart responded to repeated calls in one of the most eloquent and patriotic speeches ever delivered in La Porte which was received with great demonstrations of enthusiasm. The following named gentlemen were selected as Vice Presidents: James Forrester, Jas. Bradley, A. L. Osborn, and Amzi Clark. John Millikan. C. G. Powell, and Wm. H. Scott were appointed Secretaries.
Patriotic and eloquent speeches were made by Judge Osborn, Wm. Frazier of Illinois, and Wm. J. Walker, all of which had the true ring in them. The following preamble and resolutions were offered and after being read were unanimously adopted :
309
MILITARY RECORD.
WHEREAS, In certain States in this Union, an armed rebellion has been organized, having for its avowed object the overthrow of the government of the United States; and, whereas, the authors and leaders of this rebellion have, by violence, seized several forts and arsenals belonging to the United States, and have plundered the government of large sums of money, arms and other property ; and, whereas, Fort Sumter, belonging to the United States, and over which the government had exclusive jurisdiction, has been besieged by a large army of rebels, and assaulted by a destructive cannonade, until the heroic Maj. Anderson, and his little, but gal- lant band, exhausted by hunger and fatigue, were compelled to haul down the national flag and surrender the fortress into the hands of armed traitors; and, whereas, the President of the United States, in obedience to his constitutional obligations has called upon the loyal States to aid him in the enforcement of the laws, in the recov- ery of the national property and the preservation of the govern- ment; therefore,
Resolved, That we the citizens of La Porte County, now assem- bled, without distinction of party, will to the utmost of our ability aid the President of the United States, with men and means, in crushing this rebellion, in the recovery of the national property, in the preservation of our government and in the enforcement of its laws.
Resolved, That this meeting, in view of the unsettled and alarm- ing condition of our national affairs, recommend that volunteer com- panies may be organized in every convenient district in La Porte County, and that they be officered, drilled and held in readiness to meet any call that may be made by the Governor of this State or the President of the United States for volunteers.
Resolved, That all patriotic citizens who are willing to contribute to the support of the families of our volunteers during their absence be invited to call on Harvey Truesdell, Sutton Vanpelt and Henry Lusk, the committee on the volunteer fund and subscribe such an amount as they are willing to give for such object.
Resolved, That all who are willing to contribute blankets, and comforts or clothing for the use of volunteers be requested to leave them with the Mayor of the city of La Porte, who will mark them and if not used will return them to the donors of said articles.
M. H. Weir read the following resolutions which were adopted by a unanimous vote :
Resolved, That our Senator and Representatives in the State Legislature from this county be requested to use their utmost

endeavors, to procure the passage of a law. at the present extra session, so amending the act of 1852 pertaining to the duties and powers of the County Commissioners as to enable the Commission- ers of the different counties of this State. in their discretion to appropriate money from the County Treasury, to aid in the support of the families of such of the Indiana volunteers of 1861, and during the present troubles, as shall stand in need of such aid.
Resolved, That the Secretary of this meeting be instructed to forward a copy of the above resolution to our Senator and each of our Representatives at Indianapolis.
At this stage of the proceedings Gen. Orr stated that the citizens here had authorized those volunteers who resided in the country and wished to remain in La Porte while preparing to go away, to board at the hotels of the city, and that in so doing there was an accumulated debt due to said hotel keepers of one hundred and sixty dollars, about half of which had been paid-the balance he proposed should be made up at once, which was done in a few minutes. This was independent of the relief fund for the families of the volunteers. The Union Mills band was present and discoursed fine music at times during the meeting." At a previous meeting, the following proceed- ings were had :
"MAYOR'S OFFICE. April 19th, 1861.
The subscribers to the fund for the support of the families of Volunteers to aid in the suppression of the Southern rebellion, met for the purpose of forming an organization in furtherance of the object of such subscription.
The Mayor was called to the chair. On motion. W. C. Hannah, H. Truesdell. Henry Lusk and S. Van Pelt were appointed a com- mittee to report at a subsequent meeting a plan for the collection and disbursement of the funds that have been, and may be. subscribed.
The meeting then adjourned till tomorrow at ten o'clock A. M.
April 20th :- The meeting was called to order pursuant to ad- journment. On motion. A. L. Osborn was elected Chairman, and W. B. Biddle was chosen Secretary.
The committee heretofore appointed to devise a plan for the collection and disbursement of funds, as a report, submitted the following propositions : That each volunteer be requested to report to the Mayor. the number, names, ages, sexes and place of residence

of his family; and in case they shall fail to furnish the same the information shall be obtained from other reliable sources.
That a committee of three citizens be appointed by this meeting whose duty it shall be to collect and expend the money which has been, or shall be, subscribed for the purpose aforesaid.
That said committee shall from time to time inquire into, and keep themselves advised of the situation and wants of said families, and to provide for and supply all such necessary wants during the absence of such volunteers.
That the said committee be authorized to make assessments pro rata upon the subscriptions, and to collect the same as often as may be necessary to defray the expenses of providing for such families in the manner aforesaid.
That the committee shall have general powers and discretion in the collection and management of said fund, and in the disburse- ment of it, and may appoint as many assistants as they may deem necessary.
S. VANPELT, H. LUSK, H. TRUESDELL, W. C. HANNAH.
On motion, the report was concurred in. It was moved and seconded that Harvey Truesdell, Sutton Vanpelt and Henry Lusk constitute said committee, which motion prevailed.
A motion to empower said committee to fill all vacancies which may occur therein, was carried.
On motion, it was resolved that if any person who has subscribed to said relief fund shall enlist as a soldier, such person shall be released from his subscription.
On motion, J. A. Caldwell, C. Fredrickson, and John Suther- land, were appointed a committee to collect money to furnish vol- unteers with such clothing as may be necessary for their present use, and to pay other incidental expenses.
W. C. Hannah presented the following resolutions :
Resolved, That the General Assembly of this State be requested to enact a law at its special session about to convene, authorizing the Boards of County Commissioners of the several counties of this State to make such appropriations of money from time to time,
312
HISTORY OF LA PORTE COUNTY.
to be paid out of their respective county treasuries, as they may deem necessary and proper for the support of the families of such citizens of their respective counties as shall enroll themselves as volunteers, and be mustered into the service of the United States, to aid in the suppression of the Southern rebellion.
Resolved, That copies of the foregoing resolution be forwarded by the Chairman and Secretary of this meeting to the President of the Senate and speaker of the House of Representatives.
On motion the resolutions were adopted.
The meeting then adjourned.
W. B. BIDDLE, Secretary.
A. L. OSBORN, Chairman.
Such was the spirit which animated the people of La Porte county, when the first notes of war broke upon the country. The great heart of the people was enlisted. The young and middle-aged came forward by hundreds, and stepped promptly into the ranks for the nation's defense. The women were aroused, and all over the county relief societies were organized, and from that time forward during all the months and years of the war, their solemn vigils were kept, and they refused to know relaxation or weariness in their noble work of supplying comforts to diseased, and wounded, and suffering men. Citizens whose age or circumstances prevented them from bearing a part in the heat and burdens, and dangers of the field, freely contributed of their means, to aid the families of those who went out and might never return, and many of whom left their bodies in the soil of the South. To all this, there were some exceptions. There were those, not many, but some, who expressed the hope that the soldiers might never return, who knew for them no better name than "Lincoln hirelings," and who refused to aid the grand cause by money, or work, or word. Their punish- ment has long since come. It is that they never can feel the pride which swells the heart of him or her who helped to prevent the nation's overthrow. They must always hold concealed within their breasts, the humiliating knowledge that the glorious triumph was achieved without their assistance, and in spite of their sympathy with a rebellion which had for its object the dismemberment of the nation.
It is quite impossible to follow each man who went from La Porte county into the service of his country. It would involve the whole
313
MILITARY RECORD.
history of the war, of every campaign East and West, and of a large proportion of the battles that were fought, for in nearly every part of the great field of operations, the soldiers of La Porte county were to be found. The writer has thought best therefore, after detailing the first magnificent uprising of our people, not to indulge in many general remarks, but to give a list complete of the soldiers who en- listed from this county, with the military history of each, as far as it has been practicable to obtain it, together with a brief history of each regiment that was organized in this county, or contained as much as one full Company from the county. This will include the following regiments and batteries, the Ninth, Fifteenth, Twenty- ninth, Forty-eighth, Seventy-third, Seventy-fourth, Eighty-seventh, One Hundred and Twenty-eighth, Twelfth Cavalry; Fourth, Fifth and Twenty-first batteries. This register will be made up from the report of the Adjutant General of the State, Gen. Wm. H. H. Terrell, to which work we are also largely indebted for the historical account of the regiments and batteries named. The residences of the men of the Batteries named are not given in the report, and hence it is possible that our list herein will not be as complete and accurate as is desirable, though very few, if any of the names will be omitted. It will be a surprise to many to see the long roll of names which indicate better than anything that could be said, how grandly La Porte county upheld the hands of the government, when bloody treason attacked the integrity of the Union. These lists of names are replete with eloquence greater than language can com- mand, showing the power of a tree people, and that La Porte coun- ty, in the nation's great crisis furnished no mean army in itself.
