Three hundred and fifty were engaged, with a loss of eight killed, sixteen wounded and seventeen missing.


During the month of July, 1864, the Seventh Cavalry was sent to Vicksburg, and thence to Port Gibson and Grand Gulf, returning to Memphis and to White Station July 24, 1864.


Not long after, another expedition, toward Holly Springs and Oxford, was undertaken. During the progress, Gen. Forrest dashed into Memphis, remaining, however, but a few minutes. Gen. Smith returned to Memphis with the army about August 20.


About September 22, Gen. Price, with 14,000 rebels, entered Missouri from Arkansas, and the Union cavalry, including 500 men of the Seventh Indiana, under Maj. Simonson, started after him, marching over a large part of Missouri and into the Indian Territory. This pursuit was successful in driving Price across the Arkansas into Indian Territory; and the Seventh returned, part to St. Louis and part to Louisville, while the part that ro- mained at Memphis did good service in that region, among other things capturing Dick Davis, the noted guerrilla chief, and the terror of the region.


December 23, 1864, Gen. Grierson started for Colliersville, Tenn., on his famous " cavalry ride" through Mississippi, mov. ing with great rapidity and destroying vast stores collected for the rebel army at various points, as also railroads, factories, etc.


The expedition returned to Memphis about January 10, 1865. A movement was made into Arkansas January 20, 1865, which succeeded in destroying considerable rebel stores.


Another expedition was sent from Memphis into Arkansas and into Louisiana, but what for no one but the projector knows, as the country traversed was execrable and worthless, and had never been and never could be occupied by a military force.


Upon the surrender of the rebel armies, the Seventh Cavalry expected to be disbanded, but they were sent to Texas, being car- ried by steamer down the Mississippi, and up Red River to Alex- andria, La., reaching that point June 23, 1865.


Here a force was concentrating of 3,000 cavalry, to be sent to Houston under command of Maj. Gen. Custer, who seems to have been a pompons, vain and cruel officer. Only twenty-five years

of age, ho was a regular army officer, and seemed to regard pri- vate soldiers as machinos to be used for his own caprice.


Two men were court-martialed for desertion, and sentenced to be shot. One suffered the fearful penalty. The other died from fright, in a curions manner.


Gen. Custer had decided to save the life of one, ordering him, instead, to Dry Tortugas for three years, telling the fact, how- ever, only to his Provost Marshal. This officer, at the moment before the execution, stepped up to the commuted man to lead him away. Clapping his hand roughly upon the prisoner, the poor man, thinking himself shot, fainted away, and died shortly afterward from the effects of the fright.


During the march to Texas, Gen, Custer court-martialed two men for killing a runty calf, worth perhaps $1, and inflicted the penalty of shaving their heads, giving them forty lashes and marching them before the regiment on dress parade in this con- dition.


August 8. 1865, the troops set out for Texas, and the march was disagreeable to excess.


An account written by Col. Browne shows in a striking light the hardships of this desert march. An extract or two may be given;


"Monday, August 14-Weather warm, roads dusty, no houses, woods all pine, water very scarce and bad. Pitched my tent in a 'yaller-jacket's nest,' and swore blue blazes.


" Thursday, August 17-L'ines and deer, bugs, snakes and gallinippers inhabit the whole face of the earth.


"Friday, August 18-Marched out of the woods into the woods and through the woods, and camped God only knows where; nobody to inquire of; in the woods all day and in the woods all night."


The command arrived at Hempstead, Texas, August 25, 1865, after a tedious, weary march of 300 miles.


Or suis march, Col. Browne writes:


" During all this time, I did not average more than three hours' sleep each night, although we made short marches cach day. To sleep in the day time was impossible. I was broken ont as thickly as ever one was with the measles, from the bot- tom of my feet to the crown of my head; and, during the heat of the day, I felt as though I were pricked by a million of pins, and sprinkled with hot ashes on the bare skin. The "itch " is not a circumstance to the "heat." In addition to this, lie down when you will in these pine woods, and'you are alive with all manner of bugs and creeping things in a moment, and each one of this army of vermin would serateh, bite, sting and gnaw you all the time. Then, though there was abundance of pine forest. there was no shade. The trees stood eighty feet high without a limb, giving about as much shade as so many tall gate-posts."


At Hempstead, the regiment was consolidated. Gen. Shanks was mustered out, and Col. Browne put in command of the re-or- ganized regiment.


October 30, 1865, they left Hempstead for Austin, the State capital, arriving November 4, 1865. Here they remained till the muster-out, which took place February IS, 1866.


Proceeding to Galveston, the men crossed the gulf to New Orleans, thence by steamer to Cairo. and by rail to Indianapolis. A public reception and dinner were had, as being the last regi- ment " come home from the wars." Gov. Baker and Gen. Shanks muade addresses, and Col. Browne responded; and the men were paid, and joyfully sought their homes, happy, indeed, that "the cruel war was over."


Position and movements: Camp Shanks, Indianapolis, two months; Union City, Tenn., December 6-24, 1863; reconnois- sance toward Paris, Tenn., December 14, 1863; return to Union City; pursuit of Forrest, December 24, 1863, and onward; bat- tle and defeat of Okolona, Miss., February 22, 1864; loss, eleven killed, thirty-six wounded, thirty-seven missing; total, eighty. four; the rogiment was brave and heroic, but was overpowered by numbers; second movement againsi, Forrest, June, 1864; bat- tle of Guntown, Miss., June 10, 1864: the battle was lost, but the regiment was complimented by the General for its valor: pursuit of Price in Missouri.

A considerable number of the members of the One Hundred and Nineteenth were on board the ill-fated steamer Sultana, which was destroyed, with many hundreds of released prisoners going North, who had been allowed, in violation of all dictates of prudence, to crowd themselves upon that old hulk in their eagerness to reach their Northern homes. (See Sultana.) We should be glad to give a list of these men, but no such list is within our reach.


ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-FIRST REGIMENT, NINTH CAVALRY, THREE YEARS,


Organized March 1, 1864, at Indianapolis; Colonel, George W. Jackson.


Mustered out at Vicksburg August 28, 1865.

The regiment left Indianapolis May 3, 1864, for Pulaski, Tenn., and was on duty there till November 23, engaged in the Forrest and, Wheeler campaigns of the time. At Sulphur Branch Trestle, Ala., September 25, 1864, a detachment of the regiment lost, in an engagement with Forrest, 120 killed, wounded and missing.


On Hood's approach, the regiment fell back to Nashville, and the men were mounted and sent to the front. At Franklin, it suffered a loss of twenty-six officers and men. After Hood's re- treat, they took up winter quarters at Gravelly Springs, Ala., from January 6 to February 6, 1865, and, at the latter date, proceeded to New Orleans. Turning over their horses, the Ninth returned to Vicksburg March 25. Remaining on duty there to May 5, they were remounted and employed in garrisoning posts in the interior of Mississippi. May 22, 1868, the regiment came again to Vicksburg, to be mustered out; but the act was not ac- complished till August 29, 1865.


They arrived at Indianapolis September 5, 1865. A public reception was held for that and other returned regiments Septem- ber 6, 1860.


The number of men on the muster-out was 386. April 26, 1865, fifty-five were lost by the explosion of the steamer Sultana on her homeward passage up the Mississippi, they having been paroled from rebel imprisonment. The survivors reached In- dianapolis in May, and were mustered out as paroled prisoners of war.
