On the 9th of May a detachment of 100 men were sent out to break up a guerrilla force, and on its return was attacked by the advance of Gen. Morgan's rebel army, and driven back with considerable loss .* On the following

morning Morgan's whole force attacked the position held by the Twentieth at IIorse-Shoe Bend, on the Cumberland River. The action continued throughout the day, and resulted in the complete defeat of the enemy, who retreated from the ground with a loss ascertained to have been nearly 400. The loss of the Twentieth amounted to twenty-nine men killed, wounded, and missing.

Subsequently, the command fell back to Columbia, and on the 3d of June received orders to procced with the Ninth Army Corps to Vicksburg, Miss. It was cantoned about Haynes' Bluff during the siege, and after the sur- render of the place formed a portion of the force under Sherman sent, to operate against Johnston at Jackson. On the 24th of July it returned to Haynes' Bluff. The heat was excessive during these operations, and the army suf- fered greatly from sickness. During its stay in Mississippi the regiment lost twenty men by disease, and there were times when nearly one-half the command was disabled by sickness.

On the 3d of August the Ninth Army Corps returned to Kentucky, and in September the Twentieth participated in the movement upon Knoxville, Tenn., moving ria Cum- berland Gap. On the 10th of October the regiment was engaged at Blue Springs, losing three men killed and wounded.

Its casualties during the year were : 8 died of wounds ; 90 of disease; 148 discharged ; 10 deserted ; 7 missing in action ; 4 taken prisoners ; 21 wounded ; 9 officers resigned; 1 transferred. Total, 298.

On the 14th of November, 1863, the regiment was ordered from Lenoir Station, where it had been stationed for some time, to Hough's Ferry, to check the advance of Long- street's army, now rapidly approaching Knoxville from the Chickamauga field. The regiment was compelled to fall back to Lenoir, covering the retreat of the force sent out, and holding the Loudon road during the night. On the 16th, Burnside's army continued its movement on Knox- ville, the Twentieth, with the Second and Seventeenth Michigan Infantry, constituting the rear-guard. The enemy followed vigorously, and attacked the rear at Turkey Creek, near Campbell's Station, but they were held at bay until the rear-guard was reinforced. The losses in the Twentieth amounted to thirty three men. Among the killed was Lieut .- Col. W. Huntington Smith, commanding the regi- ment. The rear-guard arrived at Knoxville on the morn- ing of the 17th, after a heavy night march over bad roads, and having been three nights without rest.

On the same day Longstreet's army sat down to the siege of Knoxville, which was continued with unabated vigor until the 5th of December, when, hearing that Sherman's column was rapidly approaching by forced marches, the rebel commander raised the siege and retreated swiftly towards Virginia.

During the investment of the place the Twentieth occu- piel an advanced position in the lines. On the 29th of November it assisted in the defense of Fort Saunders against a most desperate assault, and lost ten men killed and wounded, besides thirteen men on picket-duty who were reported missing. After the retreat of the enemy began the Twentieth joined in the pursuit as far as Bean's Station,

Among the killed or mortally wounded in this affair was Lient. Green, who fell during the retreat. 11. B. Carpenter and Wilbur Dubois carried him some distance, but were finally obliged to leave bim in The hands of the enemy.

subsequently falling back to Blain's Cross-Roads, where it went into camp and remained until the 16th of January, 1864. The sufferings of Burnside's army during the siege were severe, and the Twentieth bore its full share of priva- tions. The distress was so great that many soldiers were without shoes, overcoats, or underclothing, and the weather was intensely cold.

On the 16th of January the regiment marched to Straw- berry Plains, and on the 20th, the forces having been with- drawn, it was left to guard the crossing of the llolston River. On the 1st and 2d of January the regiment was skirmishing with the enemy,-falling back to Knoxville on the 2d. On the 24th it left Knoxville and took part in the movement to Morristown, but fell back to Mossy Creek on the 2d of March, and on the 12th again advanced to Morristown. On the 14th it was engaged, together with a small force of cavalry, in a reconnoissance to the Chucky River, seven miles from Bull's Gap, where the enemy lay in strong force. At the mouth of Lick Creek the Twen- tieth forded the stream in the face of two battalions of rebel cavalry, drove them from their position, and captured a large amount of arms and equipage and a number of horses.

On the 21st of March the regiment marched from Knoxville to Nicholasville, Ky., and proceeded thence by rail to Annapolis, Md., the Ninth Army Corps having been ordered to join the Army of the Potomac. On the 4th of May the Twentieth crossed the Rappahannock, and the Rapidan at Germania Ford on the 5th. It was engaged in the battle of the Wilderness on the 6th, in which it lost eight killed, wounded, and missing. On the 9th it was under fire on the Ny River, and on the 12th participated in the attack upon the enemy's lines at Spottsylvania Court- House, losing thirty killed, eighty-two wounded, and thirty- one missing. On the 21st the regiment moved forward, and on the 23d reached the North Anna River. Here it remained behind its breastworks until the 27th, when the line of march was again taken up, and on the night of the 28th the command crossed the Pamunkey River.

On the 2d of June, while acting as rear-guard, it was at- tacked, but the enemy was repulsed. On the 3d it was heavily engaged in the affair near Bethesda Church, and suffered severely. The James River was crossed and the regiment arrived in front of Petersburg on the 16th. On the 17th it formed part of the supporting-line in an attack upon the enemy's position, but its losses were inconsid- erable. On the 18th it charged over an open field and through a eut in the Suffolk Railroad, which were swept by a heavy cross-fire, and threw up rifle-pits; suffering most severely during the movement, more than one half the command being placed hors de combat. It was with- drawn in the following night and placed in reserve, where it remained until the 20th, when it returned to the trenches and was not relieved until the 25th.

On the 30th of July it participated in the severe fight- ing which followed the great explosion in front of Peters- burg, on which occasion it charged and planted its colors on the rebel works. Subsequently it was sent to the rear, where it remained until the 14th of August, when it onee more took its place in the trenches, and remained until the

19th, when it was withdrawn to take part in the movement against the Weldon Railroad. From thence it moved to- wards Yellow Ilouse and threw up a strong line, behind which it encamped until the 25th of August, when it was ordered towards Reams' Station to reinforce the troops who were engaged with the enemy at that point, but took no part in the action.

On the 30th of September it was engaged at Poplar Spring Church, where it lost a number of men taken pris- oners. On the 8th of October it took part in a reconnois- sance to the right of the enemy's position, and covered as skirmishers the retrograde movement of the column. It subsequently encamped at Poplar Spring Church.

The casualties in the command during the year were very heavy, as follows : 11 commissioned officers killed in action or died of wounds, 10 wounded, and 2 taken prisoners, and 526 enlisted men killed, wounded, and prisoners, making a total loss of 548. In the same period 76 recruits joined the regiment.

From the Ist to the 27th of November it was encamped at Peebles' Farm, near Petersburg, employed on picket and in fatigue duty on the fortifications. On the 28th it moved with the division to the extreme right, east of Petersburg, and took position in the trenches, occupying Battery 9, near the river, where it relieved a portion of the Second Corps. The enemy's sharpshooters annoyed the command exceedingly during the night and killed a number of the men.

In this position the regiment continued during the winter, exposed more or less to a heavy fire from the enemy's bat- teries in front, and to a flanking fire from heavy batteries across the river, composed of Whitworth and other rifled guns. It was the enemy's custom to open fire at intervals, of from three to four days, and the first gun was the signal for every man to take shelter in the works. The pieket-lines in front of the Twentieth were only about 200 yards apart, and the fire from the rebel line was at times severe. On the 15th of February, Capt. H. F. Robinson was killed by a rebel sharpshooter while riding along the lines. The men also suffered from lack of fuel and the insuffi- cieney of shelter, but they bore up nuder every privation, never flinching for a moment from the work set before them.

As the spring advanced there were signs of important movements, and about the Ist of March the rebels were observed strengthening their lines as if anticipating an assault. On the 13th of March the regiment was in line of battle prepared for any emergeney, and on the 15th orders were received for the command to be in readiness to move at a moment's notice. The decisive hour of the Confederacy was about to strike. The siek were sent to City Point, and the men were required to sleep on their arms at night.

On the morning of the 25th, before it was fairly light, the whole line at this point was aroused by the sudden cry, "A charge !" from one of the sentinels, and in a moment the troops were in line along the works, peering out into the darkness towards the ominous-looking works in front of them, anxiously watching for the gray rushing lines of the enemy. Firing was heard to the left, and it was shortly

MILITARY HISTORY.

ascertained that the enemy had taken Fort Steadman by a sudden dash in heavy force, and were now deploying in rear of the troops with a determination to capture the whole right of the line. It was a critical moment. A panic, and all was lost. But men who have trod the battle-field for three long years are not easily demoralized, and the gallant rank and file of the Twentieth Michigan Regiment, who held the line immediately to the right of Fort Stead- man, were equal to the emergency. All the guns which the enemy could bring to bear, including those in the captured fort, were turned upon the position held by the Twentieth and Second Michigan .* The rebels were pouring masses of men through the broken line and sweeping triumphantly toward the right; and such was the tremendous force of the charge that the Second Michigan Infantry was forced back into Battery 9, with considerable loss in prisoners. The gray lines of the rebel infantry were also massing for a charge in front, and the situation was desperate. At this moment the Seventeenth Michigan came forward rapidly from its division headquarters and charged the swarming enemy, but was compelled to fall back before vastly su- perior numbers. Reforming, the gallant regiment again charged into the thickest of the advancing enemy, and this time supported by the Twentieth and Second Michi- gan, who swept down upon the right, covered by the guns of Fort McGilvery. The onset was terrific, and, seeing the utter hopelessness of persisting in their advance, the rebel columns at onee became demoralized and broke in great disorder for the rear. The Twentieth was thrown forward along the picket-line, where abont 350 of the retreating enemy were taken prisoners and brought in by the regiment. The loss of the Twentieth in this desperate affair was light compared with the magnitude of the con- fliet,-only nine men wounded, three mortally.

From this time there was constant alarm, and the regi- ment was under arms almost the whole time until the final collapse of the Rebellion. It had four men wounded on the 29th, and on the 30th was ordered into the trenches, and, along with the Second Michigan Infantry and the First Michigan Sharpshooters, was ordered to make a dash on the enemy's lines. The troops quietly made their way to the front in the covered ways, and it was finally decided that the Second should make the charge, supported by the Twentieth on the right and the First Sharpshooters on the left. Preceded by fifty axe-men to cut away obstructions, the Second dashed forward, but there was such a tremen- dous fire opened upon it that it was withdrawn, as the enemy were evidently fully prepared for the movement.

On the Ist of April, Fort Mahou, situated about two miles to the left, was taken by the Union troops, and at the same time the whole line was held in readiness for any emer- gency, and the artillery opened everywhere upon the enemy. A strong demonstration was also made on the left by the Michigan Sharpshooters, which captured and held for a considerable time a part of the enemy's line. During these operations the Twentieth and the remainder of the brigade

were kept in readiness to move upon any point at a moment's notice. The fire of the artillery was continued without intermission during the whole day and night; and the Twentieth was held in readiness on the 2d for a charge, should the opportunity appear.

On the 3d, at three A.M., it was ordered to the right to support the Michigan Sharpshooters, which charged the enemy's line and entered Petersburg, supported by the Twentieth and Second Michigan, capturing a number of prisoners and munitions, and at 4.10 A.M. hoisting its colors on the conrt-house, being the first regiment to enter the eity. The Twentieth was immediately detailed for provost duty.

On the 4th of April the Twentieth was relieved from provost duty and ordered to the front. It marched to the southwest about fifteen miles, and at Ford's Station, on the South Side Railroad, the men were detailed as safeguards at the various dwellings in the vicinity. On the 20th of the month the regiment was ordered to City Point, arriving there on the 22d, and immediately embarked for Alexandria, where it arrived on the 24th, and went into camp at Fort Lyon. On the 28th it marched over the Long Bridge and through Washington and Georgetown to a camp about four miles from the latter place, where it remained until the 30th. On the 23d of May it participated in the grand review of the Potomac army, and was mustered ont of ser- viee on the 30th. On the Ist of June it started for Michi- gan by rail, and reached Jackson on the 4th, where it was paid and disbanded on the 9th.

This regiment had an eventful history, and took part in a great number of battles and skirmishes, in all of which it bore itself with honor.
