In the spring of 1862 the regiment was reorganized and made more effective. It then gave attention to guerrillas and bushwhackers, and succeeded in breaking up some small companies of guerrillas under the notorious Quantrell and others; it also broke up not less than eight camps of bushwhackers, killing and wounding a large number, without suffering much loss. In June. 1862, the Sixth won distinction in the fight of Cowskin Prairie, and on July 4,

following, it chased the retreating forces of Confederates, when Col. Clarkson and a number of his men were captured. On that day two companies of the regiment routed the enemy at Stanwattie's Mills and captured a large amount of provisions. The same month a de- tachment of the regiment captured the Cherokee chief, John Ross, who was fighting for the South. In August the Sixth accompanied a command toward the Missouri River in pursuit of the noted Gen. Cooper and his command. The latter was overtaken and defeated at the Osage River. Scouting and skirmishing were successfully con- tinued by the Sixth until September 30, when it participated at the battle of Newtonia and covered the retirement of the Union forces. It then assisted in the several actions which resulted in driving the enemy across the Boston Mountains.
The Sixth was at the battle of Prairie Grove, in Washington County, Ark., which took place on December 7, 1862, and afterward assisted in capturing Van Buren, Fort Gibson and Fort Davis, and then returned to Missouri for winter quarters. Recruiting was car- ried on to some extent during the early winter and the spring of 1863. The Sixth took part in the fight and capture of Holly Springs, July 17, 1863, and then performed scouting service until it joined Steele's army and took part in the Camden expedition, being in the skirmish at Prairie de Anne on April 10, following, and the fight at Cabin Creek on September 19, 1864. It participated in many small engage- ments and continued active until hostilities ceased. The men were mustered out at various places and dates, the last of the veterans being mustered out July 18, 1865, at Devall's Bluff, Ark.

The Tenth Regiment Kansas Volunteer Infantry was formed in July, 1861. The original field and staff officers were: Colonel, James Montgomery, of Mound City; lieutenant-colonel, James G. Blunt, of Mount Gilead; major, Otis B. Gunn; adjutant, Casinio B. Zulaosky, of Boston, Mass .; quartermaster, A. Larzalere; surgeon, Albert New- man, and chaplain, H. H. Moore. Col. Montgomery was transferred to the Second Regiment South Carolina Colored Volunteers, and Will- iam Weer, of Wyandotte, became colonel of the Tenth. The regiment was 800 strong. After performing many minor services, the regiment took part in the expedition against Col. Clarkson, on July 3, 1862, which resulted in the capture of this officer and 155 of his men, besides the killing and wounding of about seventy of the enemy. The Tenth was repeatedly opposed to the officers Coffey and Cockrell, and it assisted in the pursuit of the Confederates in their retreat from Newtonia. In the fall of 1862 the regiment participated in the campaign in Northwest Arkansas, and was lightly engaged in action near Benton- ville on October 20, and did full service in the actions at Cane Hill and Prairie Grove, losing in the latter engagement twenty-three per cent of its men.
The Tenth moved out of camp on December 27, 1862, to strike Hindman at Van Buren, and put an end to his army. * Marma- * duke next invited the attention of the Tenth, with a force of 6,000 cavalry, advancing to Springfield, Mo. The regiment made a forced march to Springfield in conjunction with a brigade of cavalry in very severe weather, making thirty-five miles a day, and by their advance forced Marmaduke to retreat. The brigade followed Marmaduke and ronted him at Sand Spring, thirty miles beyond Springfield, and that general in his hurried retreat fell into the hands of Gen. Warren, who completed his discomfiture. The campaign of 1862 finished in a manner very honorable for the Tenth. The regiment was mustered out of service in August, 1864, but immediately reorganized as veter- ans. The Tenth served against Hood in Tennessee at Columbia, Franklin, Nashville, and in pursuit of the routed foe winning dis- tinction, always being assigned to the skirmish line on every impor- tant occasion, and their losses abundantly testify to their courage and endurance. The regiment was dispatched to Fort Gaines, Ala., on
294

March 7, 1865, and operated in that line of country until a junction was effected with Gen. Steele, and the works of the enemy at Fort Blakely captured. The Tenth was named in the reports officially made in a manner exceedingly gratifying to the State. The final muster out occurred on September 20, 1865, at Fort Leavenworth.
