CHAPTER VI.
FOURTEENTH INFANTRY.
THIS regiment was recruited at Ypsilanti. It was made up from a very large number of counties, principally in the southeastern and eentral portions of the State, and contained something like a hundred men, scattered through various companies, from Ingham and Eaton Counties, mostly from the former. It left Ypsilanti on the 17th of April, 1862, and proceeded at ouce to Pittsburg Landing, on the Ten-
nesser River. Its rolls bore the names of 925 men, and 86 Were added within three months.
The regiment served under Gen. John Pope in the ad- vance upon Corinth, Miss., and was in many skirmishes though in no general engagement. Subsequent to the evacuation of Corinth it was on duty in Mississippi, Ala- bama, and Tennessee, and at the beginning of November, 1862, was at Nashville, in the Fourteenth Army Corps, under Gen. Thomas. On the 13th of the month it was moved forward to Stone River, and on the 3d of January, 1863, participated in the battle on that stream.
In the first part of March it was stationed at Franklin, Tenn., where it relieved a cavalry force. On the 8th of April the division moved to Brentwood, and occupied the line between Nashville and Franklin.
It returned to its old camp at Nashville ou the 3d of July, and thence proceeded to Franklin, where it had its headquarters until February, 1864. On the 6th of Sep- tember, 1863, the regiment was ordered to be mounted, and eight companies were sent to Columbia, armed with Spen- cer seven-shooters and revolvers, and completely furnished with cavalry equipments, together with two light field-guns. Up to the latter part of 1863 the command had captured 12 rebel officers, 285 enlisted men, and 85 guerrillas, among the latter some of the most notorious in that region.
Its casualties for the eleven months from Nov. 1, 1862, to Oct. 1, 1863, were: 3 died of wounds; 44 died of dis- ease ; 138 discharged for various reasons, mostly for dis- ability ; 18 deserted ; 10 missing in action ; 14 officers re- signed. Total, 227. Recruits, 23.
At Columbia the Fourteenth constructed, during No- vember and December, 1863, strong fortifications and a pontoon-bridge. Its influence among the people was very salutary. Union meetings were held, loyal papers estab- lished, and many of the inhabitants took the oath of alle- giance.
On the 4th of January, 1864, a large number of the men re-enlisted as veterans, and on the 21st of February Companies C, F, G, I, and K departed for Michigan on veteran furlough, at the expiration of which they rejoined the army in the field. The remaining companies then received furloughs and returned to Michigan. On the 16th of May the last returned and joined the regiment at Nashville, Tenn.
On the 21st of the month the regiment was ordered to join Sherman's army, and reached it at Dallas, Ga., by forced marches, on the 4th of June. It was in active service through the Atlanta Campaign, and engaged at Kennesaw Mountain and on the Chattahoochie River. At the latter place it lost nine men killed and thirty-five wounded, and captured a number of prisoners.
It was hotly engaged on the 7th of August in front of Atlanta, and assisted in capturing two lines of the enemy's works with ninety-two prisoners. Its own losses were eight killed and twenty-seven wounded. The regiment was also engaged at the battle of Jonesboro', on the Ist of Septem- ber, where it carried a line of works and captured a rebel general and staff, the colors of the First Arkansas Infantry, 300 men, and four guns and caissons. The losses of the regiment were two killed and twenty-eight wounded. On

MILITARY HISTORY.
the 28th of September the command was sent to Florence, Ala., to check the rebel cavalry under Forrest, but did not encounter them.
Its losses during the year were : 14 died in action or of wounds ; 21 died of disease ; 58 discharged ; 14 transferred. Total, 107. Re-enlisted as veterans, 403.
From Florence it returned to Rome, Ga., from which place it moved on the 1st of November, and soon after started on the march to the sea with Sherman's army, reaching Savannah on the 16th. After the evacuation of that eity by the enemy under Gen. Hardce it remained until the 20th of January, 1865, when it again joined in the march through the Carolinas, moving via Sis- ter's Ferry, on the Savannah River, which it crossed on the Gth of February, and thence through South Carolina, arriving at Fayetteville, N. C., on the 10th of March. Its losses to that time were twenty-two men captured while foraging.
The Fourteenth was heavily engaged in the battles of Averysboro' and Bentonville, N. C., on the 16th, 19th, and 20th of March. At the former place the brigade, composed of the Fourteenth and Tenth Michigan, the Seventeenth New York, and Sixtieth Illinois Regiments, had a most desperate encounter with the enemy behind his works, in which the Fourteenth lost twenty-two killed and wounded. At Bentonville, on the 19th, the Fourteenth repulsed an assault of the enemy, and leaping over the works, charged him with the bayouet, capturing 33 officers, including one general, and 200 men, besides 38 wounded.
During this battle a division of the enemy penetrated a weak place in the line of the next division to the left, and took possession of a line of works in rear of the brigade, and when the latter advanced to retake it the rebels de- manded an instant surrender ; but the Fourteenth charged and carried the line, with great loss to the enemy, including 11 officers and 125 men taken prisoners, and the colors of the Fifty-fourth Virginia. The loss of the Fourteenth was five killed and twenty-two wounded.
On the 20th the brigade was again heavily engaged, and during the fight the Fourteenth Michigan and Sixteenth Illinois fixed bayonets and carried the rebel line with a rush, taking 100 prisoners, and following the retreating enemy for nearly a mile, where they encountered a strong line behind which were two brigades of infantry, supported by a six-gun battery. An attempt was made to carry this line, but it was found too strong, and the command fell back abont fifty yards and intrenched. In this affair the Fourteenth Michigan lost 2 killed, 21 wounded, and 4 taken prisoners ; the Sixteenth Illinois losing 54 killed and wounded.
The position was held and skirmishing kept up until the following morning, when it was found that the enemy had retreated. The advance of the army arrived at Goldsboro', N. C., on the 23d of March. On the 10th of April it moved towards Raleigh, whither the rebel Gen. Johnston had retreated. The Fourteenth was stationed on the Cape Fear River, south of Raleigh, until the surrender of John- ston, on the 26th of April, when it moved north with the army, reaching Richmond, Va., on the 8th, and Washing- ton, D. C., on the 18th of May. On the 24th it partici-
pated in the review of Sherman's army, and subsequently remained in camp near the city until the 13th of June, when it proceeded by rail to Parkersburg, W. Va., and thence by boat to Lonisville, Ky., where it arrived on the 1Sth. On the 18th of July it was mustered out of ser- vice and reached Jackson, Mich., on the 21st, where, on the 29th, it was paid and disbanded.

CHAPTER VII.
TWENTIETH INFANTRY.
THIS organization was recruited mostly in the counties of Jackson, Washtenaw, Calhoun, Ingham, and Eaton. Its camp of rendezvous was at Jackson. There were about 150 men from Ingham County in this command, mostly in Company A, and 100 or more from Eaton County, prin- cipally in Company G, which also contained a few men from Ingham County.
The regiment left Jackson for Washington, Sept. 1, 1862, under command of Col. Adolphus W. Williams, with 1012 names on its rolls. On its arrival at Washington it was assigned to the Ninth Corps. At the battle of Fredericks- burg, Dec. 13, 1862, it crossed the river and was slightly engaged, losing cleven men wounded. In the camp at Falmouth the regiment suffered severely from sickness. On the 19th of February, 1863, it embarked at Aquia Creek for Newport News, where it remained about one month, and on the 19th of March was sent to Kentucky.
