Two companies of the 12th, A and B, were armed with Colt's revolving rifles. In this close encounter they were fearfully destructive. The men, who were panic stricken, were rallied. Those who stood against the works fired the guns loaded by those behind. The officers of the 12th fought as the men. Col. Rousseau passed back and forth along his line cheering the men. Capt. Brown, of Com- pany D, leaped upon the works in the midst of the fight and waived the colors of the regiment. Capt. Crozer shouted defiance to Gen. Adams, who tried to ride over the works, but fell, horse and rider in the ditch. Lieut. Francis helped to handle a piece of artillery stationed where his company was. At no point in the battle was the assault more heavy than at the gin house where the 12th was engaged. Cleburne and Adams were killed near by, and in the ditch outside the slain lay in heaps.


The 12th lost some of its best men at Franklin. Among them was Jimmy Vaught, who distinguished him.

self at the crossing of Chattahoochee river. The conduct of the 12th in this battle is specially mentioned in Gen. Cox's official report and other reports, and the prompt action of Col. Rousseau commended. Col. Rousseau says in his official report: "In regard to the officers of my regi- ment, I deem it unnecessary to make any remark; they all did their duty to the fullest extent. But I would beg leave to mention particularly the conspicuous bravery and coolness of Capt. John Travis, Company B, acting major; Thos. Speed, adjutant; Captains Brown, Company D, and Crozer, Company C; Lieutenants J. B. Francis and I. D. Gray, Company I. These I saw myself and can bear testimony to their valuable service." The battle being over, the troops marched rapidly to Nashville that night. For three days and nights the 12th had had no rest .*


At daylight, December 15th, Thomas' whole army was moving. The 23d Corps was used to turn Hood's left flank. About the middle of the afternoon it moved in line of battle toward the enemy. As it swept forward, it encountered severe fire from the line of works protect- ing the extreme left of Hood's position. At dusk a halt was made, and breastworksof logs, stones and rails hastily made. At daylight next morning, directly in front of the 12th, a battery of twelve-pound brass guns opened fur- iously. Company C, of the 12th, commanded by Capt. Crozer, was in such a position it could pour a fire into this battery, and prevented its use.


In the afternoon Thomas was ready for a charge along his whole line. Word was given, and the line, as far as the eye could see to the right and left, rose and went forward. It was a grand assault by a line four or. five miles long. It was successful at every point. Capt. Crozer and his men captured the battery they had silenced, and the 12th captured upward of fifty prisoners. The 12th had only tive killed and wounded. Hood's army was crushed. It fled in the utmost confusion. The 12th joined in the pursuit. It spent Christmas day in camp at Columbia, from thence it marched to Clifton, on the Ten- nessee river. There it went on board transports and pro- ceeded down the river. The corps numbered ten thou-


* Some claim that Opdycke's brigade did all that was done in the break at Franklin, but the official reports show what has been stated above, and also that Ruger's division, 23d Corps, and the brigades of Lane and Conrad all fought in that break. It required the strength of all of them, including Opdycke's brigade, to withstand the tremen- dous weight of the assault. All of these troops are entitled to the credit of holding the point, and far more than is usual in battles, credit is due to the officer in personal charge-Gen. J. D. Cox-who was present throughout where the fight was flereest and the danger greatest.


The battle of Nashville occurred December 15th and 16th.

sand. Reaching the Ohio, the fleet went up to Cincinnati. From thence the corps proceeded by rail over the Balti- more & Ohio road through Washington to Alexandria, Va. This was in January, 1865.


The 23d Corps remained at Alexandria about a week. The 3d day of February it went on board a fleet of vessels which lay at the docks at Alexandria and moved down the Potomac and out to sea.


The fleet was four days going from Alexandria to Fort Fisher, where it cast anchor February 7th. The troops disembarked at Fort Fisher, which had been recently cap- tured, but the enemy occupied a line between that point and Wilmington.


Gen. Terry was in command of the Federal forces at Fort Fisher when the 23d Corps arrived. The united forces made several unsuccessful efforts to break through the enemy's line. The fleet also, consisting of a number of iron-clad vessels and monitors, co-operated with the land forces.


To accomplish the end desired, a portion of the 23d Corps, including the 12th, was placed on shipboard and transported down the coast to the old town of Smithville, near Fort Caswell. Embarking there the command be- gan a flank movement which caused the enemy to fall back to Wilmington. Gen. Cox's command came upon the enemy entrenched at Town creek. He occupied their at- tention in front, while a portion of the troops crossed the creek and assailed them in flank. A stubborn fight en- sued, in which there was severe loss on both sides. The 12th lost several killed and wounded. It captured a piece of artillery and several prisoners. The gun was captured by Company C, of the 12th, commanded by Capt. Hughes. The position of the enemy was taken, with a number of prisoners. Wilmington was taken February 22d.


From Wilmington the 12th proceeded with the 23d Corps to Kinston, N. C., where an engagement was had with the enemy, in which the 12th participated. The 12th then marched to Goldsboro; there the 23d corps joined Sherman's army, which had gone through to the sea. The enthusiasm of the soldiers was boundless. From Goldsboro the march was to. Raleigh; at Raleigh, Gen. Grant reviewed the troops. The soldiers of the 12th declared they had been so long in active service they had forgotten how to parade.


From Raleigh the 12th went to Greensboro about the last of April, and there remained until July 11th, when

the men were mustered out of service and started for Ken- tucky.


From Greensboro, N. C., through Danville and Peters- burg, Va., to City Point by rail. From City Point to Baltimore by steamer. From Baltimore to Parkersburg, Va., over the B. & O. R. R. and thence by steamboat to Louisville.


The men retained their arms and accoutrements until they reached Louisville. Then for the last time they formed the regiment in line. They marched through the streets to the barracks, turned over their muskets and cartridge boxes and their battle-riven colors, and de- parted for their homes.
