THE 15th Infantry, raised under Col. J. M. Oliver at Monroe, left that place for the front on the 27th day of March, 1862. The Branch County soldiers who served in its ranks during the war, numbered nineteen in Company A, two in Company B, two in C, one in E, one in F, two in G, ten in I, two in I, and fifteen in K,-making fifty-four men scattered among all the ten companies of the regiment.
The 15th was transferred ahnost instantaneously from the peaceful parade-ground at Monroe to the storm of battle at Pittsburg Landing. It arrived the evening of the 5th of April, 1862. The next day the battle opened, and the 15th was hurried to the front, taking an active and gallant part, and having thirty-three officers and men killed, and sixty-four wounded, while seven were reported missing.
The regiment served through the siege of Corinth, and was on duty in the vicinity until that place was attacked by the rebel generals, Price and Van Dorn, on the 1st and 2d of October, 1862. It was then on outpost duty, teu miles northwest of Corinth, and was assailed by the whole rebel force. It fell baek, contesting the ground ineh by inch, and, with some other regiments, held the enemy in check during the whole of that day, giving ample time for Gen. Rosecrans to prepare for the next day's conflict, in which he won a complete victory over the rebel army. The casualties of the 15th were thirteen killed, thirty-two wounded, and five missing.
