HOWLAND'S ENGINEERS
In September, 1861, E. P. Howland of Battle Creek, organized a company of engineers called the "Battle Creek Engineer Corps." This company went from Battle Creek to St. Louis, Missouri, where, on October 9, 1861, they were mustered into the United States service by order of General John C. Fremont, then commanding the Department of Missouri. General Halleck, who succeeded Fremont, ruled the company was irregular and ordered it mustered out, which was done on January 8, 1862.

FIRST MICHIGAN SHARP SHOOTERS
This regiment had an unusually large representation of both officers and men from Calhoun county. John Piper of Battle Creek went out as major. Levant C. Rhines of Battle Creek went out as captain of Company A, and on the death of Major Piper, succeeded him in that office. Major Rhines lost his life in front of Petersburg, June 16, 1864. George C. Knight, first lieutenant Company A, was also from Battle Creek. He was commissioned captain June 12, 1864, and on the 17th of the same month was killed in action before Petersburg, Virginia. Guy Newbre, of Emmet, went out as second lieutenant, Company A. George N. Davis, of Albion, entered the service in this regiment as captain of Company D. Martin Wager, of Battle Creek, first lieutenant, killed in action before Petersburg, Virginia, June 25, 1864, enlisted as first ser- geant. Friend D. Soules entered the service from Emmet and rose from corporal to first lieutenant. Cyrenius B. Knight, of Newton, passed from a private in the ranks to second and first lientenant, successively, when, like Lieutenant Soules, he was discharged on account of disabling wounds received in action.
The county was very generally represented by the rank and file in this regiment. Battle Creek had over fifty; the township of Newton about twenty-five; Emmet township over twenty; Burlington some fifteen : Albion City and township about the same number, while Pen- field, Tekonsha, Bedford, Marshall, Athens, Marengo, Sheridan and Cereseo in the order named were all represented.
On February 14, 1864, the First Michigan Sharp Shooters under command of Colonel Charles V. DeLand, of Jackson, was assigned to Wilcox's division of Burnside's Corps, Army of the Potomac. It was with Grant through the Wilderness campaign and the siege of Peters- burg. Its casualties attest better than anything else the character of the service required and given, while the commendation of brigade and division commanders show that its heroic efforts were neither unnoticed nor unappreciated.
The First Michigan Sharp Shooters was the first regiment to enter the long fought for city of Petersburg, on the morning of April 2, 1865, and ran up the flag of the United States over the court house in that city. It remained in and near the city until after the surrender at Appomattox, when it returned to Washington, participated in the grand review, soon after which it was mustered out, paid off and disbanded in Jackson, Michigan, August 7, 1865.
Total enrollment, 1,206. Killed in action, 69. Died of wounds, 42. Died while prisoners of war, 41.
Died of disease, 62.
Discharged for disability (wounds and disease), 98.
