The Regiment's Work in the Field .- This command did not leave the state until May 3, 1864. It then moved to Pulaski, Tenn., where, and at Decatur, Ala., during the Atlanta campaign, it guarded a railroad over which supplies were sent to Sherman's army. It had several skirmishes with the forces under Roddy, Wheeler and Forrest, and in the battle of Pulaski, September 28, fought bravely, losing fifty officers and men, killed and wounded. A detachment at De- catur fought Hood four days in October, and a portion of the regiment fell back on Nashville, engaging in the battles of Nash- ville, Little Harpeth, Reynolds' Hill and Sugar Creek, losing in officers and men sixty-three killed and wounded, and seventy- five captured; and on the other hand cap- turing from the enemy in these several en- gagements, four stands of colors, and 300 men and officers with their arms. During the winter the detachment at Decatur, under Maj. Williamson, participated in the battles

of Flint River, Indian Creek, Courtland and Mount Hope, and succeeded in captur- ing ten pieces of artillery, 150 officers and men, and a supply train consisting of 150 wagons and 500 mules. In February, 1865, the regiment proceeded, by steamer, to New Orleans, and thence to Mobile Bay, participating in the reduction of Spanish Fort and Fort Blakely, which resulted in the surrender of Mobile. The regiment then made an expedition to Eufala and Montgomery, Ala., and moved thence to Vicksburg, Miss., reaching there in July. Thereafter, until muster out, August 31, 1865, it was engaged in garrison and patrol duty in Mississippi. On April 28, 1865, the regiment lost three officers and thirty-five men by the explosion of the ill-fated steamer, Sultana. These soldiers had been paroled and were on their way home when killed. In May, 1864, it also lost five men killed and seventy wounded by a railroad collision on the L. & N. railroad. The regiment went out with 1,254 officers and men, and re- ceived forty-six recruits. It returned to the state with twenty-eight officers and 519 men.


military services as might be required of them in any state, and were to be armed, subsisted, clothed and paid by the United States, but were not to receive any bounty. These troops were designed to make the campaign of 1864 successful and decisive by relieving a large number of veterans from garrison and guard duty and allowing them to join their companions in arms, then about entering one of the most active and im- portant campaigns of the war. Their places were filled by the 100 days' men as fast as the latter could be organized into regiments and sent forward from the camps of rendezvous. The organizations from Indiana consisted of eight regiments, num- bered consecutively from the One Hundred and Thirty-second to the One Hundred and Thirty-ninth, inclusive. The One Hundred and Thirty-sixth Regiment was composed almost entirely of men from the First con- gressional district, there being three entire companies, A, B and C, from Vanderburgh county, the largest body of citizens that had yet gone out with any organization. The regiment was organized and mustered into service on the 23d day of May, IS64. Vanderburgh county gave to the regiment the following officers, all of whom were com- missioned May 21, 1864, and mustered out with the regiment: Col. John W. Foster, Lieut. Col. William H. Walker, Maj. Blythe Hynes, and Qrm. Robert Early; to Com- pany A, Capt. Adolphus Pfafflin, First Lieut. Philip Euler, Second Lieut. Charles Ritter, all commissioned May 3, 1864; to Company B, Capt. William B. Hollingsworth, First Lieut. Frank M. Thayer, Second Lieut. Christopher L. Scott, all commissioned May 5, 1864; and to Company C, Capt. William H. Caldwell, First Lieut. Edward P. Elliott, Second Lieut. Frederick Geiger, all com-


The Hundred Days' Volunteers .- When the winter of 1863-4 had passed and the life of the nation was still in danger, preparations were made for a vigorous prosecution of the war. The victories and campaigns of the preceding year were bril- liant and in a large measure effective, but it was hoped that the achievements of the year just commencing might terminate the re- bellion and restore peace. The governors of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, and Wiscon- sin offered to raise for the service of the general government a force of volunteers to serve for 100 days, and on the 23d day of April, 1864, Gov. Morton issued his call for Indiana's portion of that force. The missioned May 21, 1864. At the organiza- troops thus raised were to perform such lion of Company C, May 5, 1864, William

The Field Service of the One Hundred and Thirty-sixth .- Soon after its organiza- tion the regiment departed for Tennessee. Arriving at Nashville it was assigned to duty along the railroads over which were transported supplies for Sherman's army, then advancing on Atlanta, and until the latter part of August, 1864, was kept con- stantly engaged in guarding these import- ant lines of communication. Its service was valuable as an important adjunct to the bril- liant and successful campaign of 1864. The three companies from this county went out with 294 men." They lost one by death -- Albert Schumacher, who died June 20, 1864, and one by desertion. Immediately after its final discharge, Joseph Kramer, of Company C, was killed by a shot fired by an unknown person. The regiment was mustered out September 2, 1864, at Indianapolis.


The Last Regiment for the Front .- In December, 1864, Abraham Lincoln again, called on the loyal people of the north for 300,000 volunteers. In response to this, the final call for troops made by the president during the civil war, Indiana sent eleven regiments to the front, among them being the One Hundred and Forty-third, com- posed of companies from the first congres- sional district, organized and mustered into service at Indianapolis on the 21st day of February, 1865, with John F. Grill, as colonel. Early in 1861, Col. Grill had gone out as captain of a company in the Twenty- fourth, had rendered valiant and faithful service with that gallant regiment, had won and received advancement to the rank of lieutenant colonel, had just returned to his home from active service, and it was a fitting recognition of his worth that he should com- mand the last regiment that went out com- posed largely of Vanderburgh county men. His commission was dated the 20th day of February, 1865, and he served
