NOTE .- A larger number is unaccounted for than in any other regiment.

The Nineteenth had not nearly so large a field of operations as some others, spending its whole four years in the Army of the Potomac But what it lacked in extent of territory was made up in severity of service. In sickness, in loss by killed and wounded and prisoners and death by disease, the sufferings and hardships of the Old Nineteenth were wonderful. Its first ex- perience of battle was at Lewinsville, but by no means its last. At Gainesville and Manassas Junction. South Mountain and An- tietam, and the terribly fatal attack on Fredericksburg, at Get- tysburg and the fearful Wilderness campaign, ever in the post of danger and of death, the brigade composed in part of the Nineteenth, long before the battle of Gettysburg had richly earned the name by which it was known throughout the Potomac Army -- " The Iron Brigade."

The history of the Nineteenth Indiana may be given in brief as follows:

Leaving Indianapolis August 5, 1861, it joined forthwith the Potomac Army August 9. At Lewinsville they were engaged with a slight loss of three killed and wounded, and three pris- oners. They were in the engagement at Falls Church Septem- ber 28, and wintered at Fort Craig. on Arlington Heights. The regiment spent the spring and summer until August in recon- noissances in Virginia, marching to Fredericksburg, to the Shen- andoah Valley, to Warrenton, to Fredericksburg again, Spottsyl- vania and Cedar Mountain. At Gainesville, their loss was heavy ---- 187 killed and wounded, and thirty-three missing.

Maj. Isaac M. May fell in that action. They were engaged at Manassas Junction, and not long after at South Mountain Sep tember 14, 1862, with forty killed and wounded, and again in the world-renowned conflict of Antietam September 17, 1862. with fearful hardships and heavy loss, their Lieutenant Colonel Alois O. Bachman, being killed on that awful field of blood and slaughter.

October 6, Col. Meredith was promoted Brigadier General, and Lient. Col. Samuel J. Williams became Colonel. The regi-

253

HISTORY OF RANDOLPH COUNTY.

ment fought in the attack on Fredericksburg December 13, 1862, and wintered at Belle Plain.

They marched to Gettysburg, arriving on the morning of July 1, 1863. A large part of the regiment was captured in that battle, and the poor sufferers spent weary months in those dens of unspeakable horror, the rebel prison-pens. The "Iron Brigade " opened the battle of Gettysburg about 9 o'clock in the morning of July 1, the Nineteenth being the regiment first en- gaged.

In the campaign of the Wilderness, during the summer of 1864, the Nineteenth was eonspicuous in the sanguinary contest of that memorable period.

During the winter of 1864, a portion of the remnant of the Nineteenth re-enlisted as veterans. Col. Williams was killed in the Wilderness, and Lient. Col. Lindley took his place.

The old regiments had become so reduced that a consolida- tion was effected in the fall of 1864. The Fourteenth and Twentieth were united as the new Twentieth. The Seventh and the Nineteenth were joined as the new Nineteenth September 23, 1864.

The two new regiments were again consolidated as the Twentieth October 18, 1864, with Col. William Orr as the com- manding officer. . The Twentieth was mustered out at Louisville July 12, 1865. . .

These regiments had in truth undergone a hard, severe, la- borious, deadly service.

Great numbers were killed and wounded, and a far greater number died of disease, and still more were discharged for dis? ability. Four regiments were consolidated into one, and only a meager few remained even then to recount' the story of their achievements. Out of, 5,801 men who had belonged to the four; regiments, there were present at the final muster-out of the Twentieth Regiment barely twenty-three officers and 390 men. . The soul shudders at the incalculable sacrifice of health and life, and the unspeakable burden of human suffering wrapped up in the bare statement of statistics given above -5,801 men reduced to 410. Alas! alas! how little knew or cared the reckless men who struck the fatal blow that opened the mortal strife what a bitter fountain of poisonous, deadly waters was by their fratii- cidal hand unsealed to pour its fatal flood widespread over the horror-stricken land!
