CHAPTER IX.
SECOND CAVALRY.
Tuis regiment was raised aud organized at Grand Rapids, by lon. F. W. Kellogg, in the fall of 1861. In its ranks were 100 or more men from Eaton and Ingham Counties, mostly from the first named. A large share of them be- longed to Company B, but they were also scattered in other companies. The command left the Rapids on the 14th of November, 1861, with 1163 names on its rolls, and proceeded to St. Louis, Mo., where it was assigned to duty at Benton Barracks, and remained there until March, 1862, when it formed a part of Geo. Pope's command, op- erating against Island No. 10 and New Madrid. Follow- ing this campaign it was transferred to Northern Mississippi in May, and remained in that region until October, when it was ordered to Lonisville, Ky. It was actively employed
during the year, and on the 31st of October, 1862, had an aggregate of 794 men on its rolls.
In December, 1862, and January, 1863, it was with the command under Gen. Carter which made a raid into East Tennessee, broke up the enemy's communications, and de- stroyed a large amount of stores. The expedition consumed twenty-two days, and there was considerable skirmishing. Returning from this movement, the Second proceeded to Louisville, Ky., and soon after to Nashville, Tenn., reach- ing the latter place on the 3d of February. During the succeeding two months it was stationed at Murfreesboro' and Franklin, employed in reconnoitering and skirmishing with the enemy. On the 18th of February it was sharply engaged near Milton, on the 19th at Cainsville, and again on the 27th near Spring Hill. On the 4th and 5th there was severe skirmishing with the rebels under Van Dorn and Forrest, in which the regiment lost one killed, four wounded, and one prisoner. From the 8th to the 12th it was engaged in reconnoitering, during which service the enemy were driven across Duck River. .
On the 25th of March it made a gallant fight with a large force under Stearns and Forrest, in which the enemy suffered severely, losing, besides a large number killed and wounded, fifty-two prisoners, several wagons, and a great amount of munitions and baggage. The losses of the regi- ment were: one died of wounds, six wounded, and two missing. On the 4th of June, while moving from Triune to Franklin, it had another sharp skirmish, in which it lost two killed and three wounded. On the 6th it returned to Triune, and remained at that point until the advance of the army from Murfreesboro', when it moved forward with the cavalry division to which it was attached.
On the 23d it was under fire at Rover, on the 24th at Middletown, where it drove the enemy, and on the 27th at Shelbyville, where it made a dashing charge and drove the enemy into the town. Again, on the 2d of July, it was engaged at Eik River Ford, and on the 3d at Cowan. In the beginning of September it was busily engaged among the mountains of Tennessee and Northern Georgia scouting and foraging. On the 3d of October the command left Raukin's Ferry, on the Tennessee River, to take part in the pursuit of the enemy's cavalry, which under Gen. Wheeler was making a raid upon the communications of Gen. Rosecrans' army. During the pursuit the Second Cavalry made 103 miles from the 3d to the 5th of October inclusive, and 82 miles on the 6th, 7th, and 8th, the greater portion of the distance over rough mountain roads. On the 31st it encamped at Winchester, Tenn.
The casualties in the regiment from October, 1862, to October, 1863, were : 8 died in action or of wounds: 23 of disease; 188 discharged, mostly for disability ; 70 de- serted; 31 missing in action; 8 wounded in action; 10 officers resigned. Total, 338. Aggregate on the rolls, Nov. 1, 1863, 662.
Early in January, 1864, the regiment went on a foraging expedition to Fayetteville, where it gathered in 400 bush- els of wheat, 65 head of cattle, from 500 to 600 sheep, and a number of mules and horses. On the 16th the regiment left Winchester, and proceeded, via Shelbyville, Murfreesboro', Milton, Liberty, and Sparta, to the Cumber-

land Mountains, through these to Crossville, and thenee, via Kingston and Knoxville, to Strawberry Plains, crossing the IIolston River, and arriving at its destination Dec. 17, 1863. On the 23d the regiment made a movement through New Market to Dandridge, where, early on the morning of the 24th, it attacked a superior force of the enemy. The conflict was severe, lasting the entire day, and the Union forces were compelled to fall back at night to New Market. The losses in the Second were two killed, eight wounded, and ten prisoners. On the 25th it encamped at Mossy Creek, where it remained until the 14th of January, 1864. On the 29th of December it was engaged in a skirmish with the enemy, in which it lost four men,-one killed, one wounded, and two taken prisoners.
On the 14th of January the regiment was sent forward to Dandridge to check the advance of Longstreet's Corps, approaching from Chattanooga to the investment of Knox- ville. On the 17th there was skirmishing, and on the 19th the command fell back to Knoxville. Again crossing the Ilolston River it bivonacked on Flat Creek on the 23d, and on the 26th was at Pigeon River. At midnight on the 26th it marched with a considerable force to the attack of a body of rebel cavalry, which was defeated with a loss of three guns and seventy-five prisoners. The loss of the Second Cavalry was eleven wounded and two missing.
