HISTORY OF NORWAY
CHAPTER XVIII.
NORWAY SOLDIERS IN THE REBELLION.
Hostilities between the North and South began by the bombard- ment and capture of Fort Sumter, in the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina, by the Insurgents, April 12, 1861. The sectional trouble had arisen over the question of negro slavery in the territories of the United States. The North insisted that there should be no more slave territory within its borders or in its future acquisition of lands, and upon this issue elected Abraham Lincoln of Illinois, President in 1860.
On the fall of Fort Sumter, President Lincoln called for volunteers to maintain the national authority and put down the Rebellion. One regiment was called for, from Maine. Of its ten companies, Norway furnished the greater part of one and was wholly officered by Norway men. At that time, there was a company of militia here of which George L. Beal was Captain. In 1855, the Norway Light Infantry had been organized with William Wirt Virgin, a practising lawyer in the village, as Captain. He had been promoted to Major General and was of great assistance in the organization of this company and the regiment of which it formed a part, and other bodies of troops that subsequently went to the war from Maine. He went himself the next year in command of the 23rd Maine Regiment, enlisted for nine months, as its Colonel. The Norway company was mustered into the service May 3rd, at Portland, for three months, as Company G, and soon thereafter transported to Washington, D. C., where it went into camp on Meridian Hill on the Maryland side of the Potomac. A serious illness had broken out among the men of the 1st Maine and for this with other reasons, it did not take part in the disastrous battle of Bull Run, as the 2d, 3rd, 4th, and 5th Regiments did.
There were no casualties among the Norway men and all returned to their homes on being mustered out at the expiration of their term of service.
The men from Norway were:
Captain, George L. Beal First Lieut., Henry Rust, Jr. Sec. Lieut., Jonathan Blake Sergeants
Wm. W. Whitmarsh Henry R. Millett

HISTORY OF NORWAY
In the 5th Maine Regiment, in June, 1861, six Norway men had enlisted for three years. They were Horace Cole, musician, Co. E, Isaac C. Cross, Asa D. Jordan, H. Joseph Faulkner, Ephraim C. Penley, and Rufus C. Penley, privates, Co. I. The last mentioned died in the service.
The 10th Maine Regiment was organized in the autumn of 1861, and mustered into the service in October, for two years, to date from May 3rd, as being the reorganized 1st Maine Regiment. How this was brought about is not quite clear, but it seems to have been a case of sharp practice. Gen. George L. Beal, who was colonel of the 10th, once informed the writer that there was no other instance of the kind in the whole country. Probably it was made to appear that substantially the same officers would serve in the 10th who had in the 1st. This was true of the Norway company at least. This organ- ization was one of the best drilled and neatest dressed in the army. It participated in General Banks' Retreat down the Shenandoah Val- ley, Va., to Williamsport in May, 1862, as rear guard, and was in the battles of Cedar Mountain, Va., and Antietam, Md., in which the Regiment suffered great losses. Col. Beal was seriously wounded at Antietam. The Norway company (G) in both battles was ably com- manded by Sec. Lieut. Henry R. Millett (a son of old Major Henry W. Millett), who was always called "Little Major Millett," as both Capt. Jonathan Blake and First Lieut. William W. Whitmarsh were then on the sick list.
The regiment was mustered out at Portland in May, 1863, and the three years men who had joined since the organization, were formed into the 10th Maine Battalion. The Norway men in these commands were:
Colonel, George L. Beal Com. Sergt., Charles Thompson Captain, Jonathan Blake First Lieut., Wm. W. Whitmarsh Sec. Lieut., Henry R. Millett Sergeants
John F. Fitz
Jere Dempsey
Corporals William F. Hale
Lucius I. Bartlett
Drummer, Harrison Noble Wagoner, Samuel S. Yates
Privates-Marcus C. Bartlett, Frank J. Bradbury, James Crockett, Charles F. Greenleaf, Charles Hall, James L. Merrill, Charles Mat- thews, Darius F. Pike, and Charles S. Robbins (Company C). Later, there joined the Norway company as three years men, Kenneth L. Bartlett, Charles W. Dinsmore, Solomon Greenleaf, Charles F. Mil- lett and Charles M. Pressey.
Henry Rust, Jr., had been appointed as Captain of the Norway company on its organization, but was soon commissioned as Lieut .- Colonel of the 13th Maine Regiment, which was in service in Louisiana. He was promoted to Colonel and to Brevet Brig. General.
100
HISTORY OF NORWAY
Kenneth L. Bartlett was mortally wounded at Cedar Mountain, and his brother, Marcus C. Bartlett, at Antietam. Charles M. Pressey was killed at Antietam. Charles Matthews died at Berlin, Maryland.
Amos F. Noyes, who had risen to the rank of Lieut. Colonel in the old militia, raised a company for the war in the autumn of 1861. It was his purpose to join the 13th Maine, of which Henry Rust had been appointed Lieut. Colonel, but the ranks of that regiment were full when Captain Noyes' company was ready for muster, and it became a part of the 14th Maine, as Company G. Colonel Noyes had generously allowed a Portland man to be commis- sioned as Captain-he taking a commission as First Lieut. The regiment served in Gen. B. F. Butler's Department of the Gulf. The Norway company was in the severe battle of Baton Rouge, La., where the Union Army gained a great victory. Lieut. Noyes had previously resigned on account of an injury received. In 1864, the 14th Maine Regiment participated in the battles of the Opequan and Cedar Creek. Its losses from casualties in battle and disease were very great. Company G had the greatest number of men from Nor- way of any that went from the town to the war, and the largest number of deaths. The Norway men in this Company were: First. Lieut., Amos F. Noyes Capt. by pro., I. Frank Hobbs Musician, Francis M. Noble

The last named, who enlisted early in 1864, with Flood, Mixer, Fuller, and Francis M. Noble who had re-enlisted became members of Co. B of the new 14th Maine Regiment, and were discharged with the company in August, 1865.
Sergt. Austin C. Hayes was killed at Baton Rouge, La. Ezra A. Merrill died from wounds received at Cedar Creek, Va. Daniel Pike was captured at Baton Rouge, and died in a rebel prison, and Isaiah M. Burnell, Alvin Davis, George W. Frost, John G. Hayes, Harrison B. Holden, Chandler Hutchinson, David A. Morse, George E. Needham, Josiah H. Smith and Benjamin F. Whitcomb died from disease con- tracted in the service and are buried in National Cemetery at New Orleans.

HISTORY OF NORWAY
In the summer of 1862, a company was recruited in Norway and Paris for the 17th Maine Regiment. It received the name of Com- pany F. The regiment was in the battles of Chancellorsville, Gettys- burg, and the conflicts of the Wilderness campaign and the Siege of Petersburg. It was one of the fighting regiments of the Union Armies. It was mustered out at Portland, June 4, 1865. The Nor- way men were:
Capt. Uriah W. Briggs pro. from First Lieut.
Capt. Wellington Hobbs pro. from the ranks.
Sec. Lieut. Asa D. Charles pro. from the ranks.
Ord. Sergt. Hannibal S. Warren.
Sergt. C. C. Cole.

In Company C, raised at Mechanic Falls, were: Ord. Sergt. George W. Verrill, promoted to Captain; Sumner W. Burnham, pro- moted from the ranks to Sec. Lieut., for bravery, and Fessenden M. Mills.
Wellington Hobbs, Sumner W. Burnham and Charles D. Noble were given the Kearney medals for bravery under fire.
Capt. Wellington Hobbs was killed on the picket line in front of Petersburg, in October, 1864, before being mustered as Captain, Levi A. Whitcomb at Chancellorsville, Albert C. Gammon in front of Petersburg and Calvin Holt and Fessenden M. Mills died from wounds received at Gettysburg, and Edward W. Bumpus died from disease. In Company I was Darius Richardson who enlisted in November, 1863, and died from disease contracted in the service, June 28, 1864.
Gen. Wm. Wirt Virgin organized the 23rd Maine regiment of nine months men in the summer of 1862, of which he was com- missioned Colonel. The regiment was mustered into the service in September, at Portland.
Capt. Amos F. Noyes, who had partially recovered from the injury he had received, while serving in the Department of the Gulf, in Co. G, 14th Maine Regiment, raised a company for it and he was selected as Captain of Co. H. The regiment was in no battle and was stationed to guard the fords of the Potomac between Washington and Harper's Ferry. The 23rd Regiment started for home to be mustered out late in June, 1863, while General Lee's army was invading Pennsylvania. When it reached Philadelphia, the city authorities tried to get it to stay there till the Rebel Army should be driven back across the Potomac or captured, but this was refused and it kept on to Maine and was mustered out July 15th. This action of refusing to stop in Philadelphia was deeply regretted

ยท All came home but Mark F. Frost, who died at Orfutt's Cross Roads, Md., December 7, 1862. Henry Shattuck, who had enlisted, died before being mustered.
The following men were drafted in July, 1863 :
James Smith Wm. F. Merrill Wm. F. Foster Geo. F. Cary
Bradley Frost
Wm. A. Merrill
Geo. F. Leonard

Thos. J. Everett George A. Cole R. Young George S. Ames Leonard Flint paid $300, instead of going into the army. Gilbert L. Fiske had been in the service and later re-enlisted. None of the others entered the army.
And in this connection of the draft it may be said that some eighteen or twenty persons from Norway went to Canada to escape the draft, where a very few stayed till the war was over. Some were young men, and were over-persuaded during the draft excitement to leave the country, who deeply regretted it during the rest of their lives. Some came back and procured substitutes. The greater num- ber of them would never have been accepted by the examining sur- geons as fit for soldiers. The author has a list of their names, which was given to him by the late Winthrop Stevens, who was many years an officer and was living here at the time.
There was some disloyalty, but not to the extent of resisting the draft as at Kingfield, or of forming a company for that avowed pur- pose as at North Buckfield, which ended in nothing but talk. The writer was informed when he was teaching the school on Crockett Ridge in the winter of 1865-6 that one Wilkins living in the neighbor- hood had declared when the news of President Lincoln's assasination

was received, that he was glad of it. One of our neighbors in Buck- field made the same declaration. Happily there is no one today, South or North, who would utter such sentiments. If Abraham Lincoln had lived, we now know that there would have been no carpet- bag or negro governments in the South. The man that murdered him did the South an irreparable injury, and placed President Lincoln among the greatest and best of the human race.
Col. George L. Beal, very soon after the 10th Maine Regiment was discharged, with other officers of that organization, took measures to raise another body of men for the war. Company G recruited at Norway, became a part of it. The regiment was denominated the 29th Maine, and Beal was commissioned as its Colonel. William W. Whitmarsh was appointed Captain of Co. G, and Henry R. Millett, First Lieut. Millett was afterward commissioned as Captain of Co. E.
Col. Beal was promoted to Brig .- Gen. and Major-Gen. by brevet. The regiment was in service in the Department of the Gulf, and took part in the disastrous Red River campaign of Gen. N. P. Banks in the spring of 1864. The officers and men at Sabine Cross Roads, La., covered themselves with glory. They held the most critical posi- tion of our troops in the battle and the enemy's advance was checked. The regiment covered the retreat of the army down the river.
The 10th Maine Battalion joined the regiment of which it was to form a part, and served with it in the Shenandoah Valley campaign.
The 29th Maine with other troops, was transferred to Washington the following summer and formed a part of Gen. P. H. Sheridan's Army in the Shenandoah Valley, and participated in the battles of the Opequan, Fisher's Hill, and Cedar Creek, where Sheridan, riding from Winchester, twenty miles away, turned disastrous defeat into a glorious victory.
After the war closed the regiment was stationed in S. C. till the summer of 1866, when its officers and men were mustered out at Hilton Head, on the 21st of June.
The Norway men in the 29th Maine, were :
Colonel, George L. Beal Q. Master, Charles Thompson Co. G: Capt., Wm. W. Whitmarsh First Lieut., Henry R. Millett, pro. Capt. Co. E Sergt., William P. Johnson Corporals Joseph E. Long Harrison Noble

HISTORY OF NORWAY
Andrew P. Greenleaf, with John H. Lovejoy mortally wounded, was killed at Cedar Creek. Calvin B. Burnell was drowned in steam- boat collision in New York harbor on his way home, May 27, 1864. Harrison Noble was wounded at Cedar Creek so seriously as to cause the loss of an arm. Willard E. Morse, David F. Frost, Nathan Foster and James Cox from New Hampshire, serving on the quota of Nor- way, died from disease.
The last conpany that was organized for the war in Norway was Co. B, 32nd Maine Regiment, and was recruited by Capt. Amos F. Noyes and others. It was mustered into the United States service at Augusta in March, 1864. The demand for troops for the spring campaign, was so urgent that the first six companies including Co. B, under command of Major Arthur Deering, was sent April 20th, to Washington, and on the 12th of May, participated in the Battle of Spottsylvania C. H. The other four companies joined them at the North Anna. The regiment took part in the remaining battles of the campaign, the Mine Explosion, and Siege of Petersburg. The losses were so great, that on the 12th of December, 1864, the 32nd Maine numbering 485, was consolidated with the 31st Maine, many of the officers and men, among them being Capt. Amos F. Noyes, who was wounded in the shoulder at Spottsylvania, being discharged. The 31st Maine was mustered out at Alexandria, Va., July 15, 1865.

The Adjutant General's Reports state that Norway was credited at Augusta with 248 men. The foregoing pages show that in all there were 260 including Captain Sylvanus Cobb, Jr.'s company of Maine militia which was in the United States service for 72 days. There are doubtless some errors as the Adjutant General's Reports in many instances give the names of some soldiers as being from Nor- way in one part and from another town in a different place. There were over 50 re-enlistments. About 200 different men from Norway took part first and last in the great conflict which restored the au- thority of the United States and abolished Slavery. Over half a million of men-the flower of the North-lost their lives or were per- manently disabled. No Norway boy went to the war against his will.
Sad indeed was the loss of so many noble spirits but sadder still was the murder of President Abraham Lincoln, in the hour of his great triumph, cut off from the work he had laid out to do. This work was never done.
