SECOND INFANTRY.
This regiment was organized and led into the field by Col. Israel B. Richardson, of Pontiac .* It contained men in every company, save one (F), from Kalamazoo County, and Companies I and K, commanded respectively by Capts. Dwight May and Charles S. May, of Kalamazoo, were almost wholly from the county.
The regiment left Detroit on the 5th of June, 1861, with ten hundred and thirteen names on its muster-roll, and arrived so promptly at the front before Washington as to be in time to participate in the first important battle of the Rebellion,-Bull Run,-opening that famous conflict at Blackburn's Ford, on the 18th of July. At the first Bull Run the brigade to which the 2d Regiment was attached was the only one that maintained its organization intact, and for that reason the 2d Regiment was assigned the honorable and dangerous position of rear-guard to the defeated and almost disbanded Union army. It maintained its position at Centreville Heights until Monday morning, July 22d, when, after all the troops and stragglers had passed, it took up its slow march for Washington, where it arrived in perfect discipline. It was then immediately as- signed the laborious and dangerous duty of guarding Bailey's Cross-Roads, leading to Washington and Alexan- dria, being almost daily engaged in skirmishes, and losing a number of men by the rebel sharpshooters.
Col. Richardson commanded a brigade during the cam- paign.
During the winter it was encamped near Alexandria, Va., and in March, 1862, moved with Mcclellan's army to the Peninsula. Under command of Col. O. M. Poe,; par- ticipated in the siege of Yorktown, battles of Williams- burg, May 5, 1862, losing seventeen killed, thirty-eight wounded, and four missing; Fair Oaks, May 27th; Charles City Cross-Roads, June 30th; and at Malvern Hill, July 1st.
It was in the second battle of Bull Run, under Gen. Pope, in August, 1862, occupying the extreme right of the army, and again having the honorable position of rear-guard to that part of the army in its retreat to Centreville, and at Chantilly, in 1863. It was also present at the battle of Fredericksburg, Va.
Col. Richardson, who had been promoted brigadier- and major-general of volunteers, was mortally wounded at the battle of Antietam while gallantly leading a regiment into action ; in the height of his zeal doing a colonel's duty and meeting a soldier's death in the fore front of battle. His remains were taken to Pontiac and interred with imposing ceremonies.
In February, 1863, the 2d Regiment moved to Newport News, Va., and in March was transferred to Kentucky, where it remained until June, when it was sent with the 1st Divi- sion of the 9th Corps, under Gen. Parke, to reinforce Gen. Grant at Vicksburg, Miss. It accompanied Sherman in his brief campaign against Johnston, at Jackson, Miss., in July, 1863, and was engaged in severe fighting on the 11th, losing fifty-six men. From Mississippi it was transferred to Kentucky, in August, and in September marched by way of the Cumberland Gap to Knoxville, Tenn., where it took part in the operations of Gen. Burnside.
On the first of November it was at Loudon, Tenn., where it commenced building winter quarters ; but in the mean time Longstreet had begun his movement against Knox- ville, and the regiment fell back towards that place, skir- mishing sharply with the enemy at Campbell's Station. It took an active part in the defense of Knoxville until the approach of Sherman's column of the Federal army from Chattanooga compelled Gen. Longstreet to raise the siege of the place, on the 4th of December, and withdraw into Virginia.
During the investment of the place the regiment charged the enemy's works on the 24th of November, and lost eighty- six men, which was more than one-half those engaged. In common with the rest of Burnside's force, it suffered much hardship during the siege.
At Blaine's Cross-Roads a large number of the men re- enlisted as veterans, and in February they went home ou furlough. From Mount Clemens it was sent to Annapolis, Md., in April, from whence it joined the army on the Rapidan on the 5th of May, 1864.
In the terrible campaign against Richmond, the 2d took an active and honorable part. On the 6th of May, in the Wilderness, it lost about forty men killed, wounded, and missing, and on the 12th, at Spottsylvania Court-House, lost eleven men. Again, on the 3d of June, at Bethesda Church, its loss was about forty more.
About the middle of June it crossed the James River, and was hotly engaged before Petersburg on the 17th and 18th of June, losing one hundred and seventy-one men. On the night of July 30th, following the explosion of the great mine, its losses were six killed, fourteen wounded, and thirty-seven missing.
On the 19th of August it was sharply engaged on the Weldon Railroad, losing five men ; and on the 30th of September, near Poplar Spring Church, lost nineteen men. On the 27th of October it was in the movement on the

" Boydton Plank-Road," where it lost fourteen wounded and missing. Its total losses during the year were about one hundred killed and two hundred and sixty wounded in ac- tion. During November it was encamped near the Peebles Farm, employed on the fortifications and in picket duty.
On the 25th of March, 1865, it was heavily engaged at the affair at Fort Steadman, losing a large number of men. It was present at the capture of Petersburg, on the 3d of April, and on the 18th embarked at City Point and pro- ceeded to Alexandria, where it remained a few days, and moved into camp at Tenallytown. From the 27th of May until the 29th of July it was on duty at Washington. At the latter date it was mustered out and sent to Detroit, where it was paid and disbanded on the 1st of August.
NOTES OF A WORTHY SOLDIER.
In making up the military history of Kalamazoo County we believe it would not be complete unless we gave some account of the first person who enlisted in Kalamazoo for service in the war of 1861-65. In April, 1861, before President Lincoln made his first call for seventy-five thou- sand volunteers to suppress the insurrection in the Southern States, Capt. J. W. Handy and George W. Crego opened an office for the purpose of forming a company to offer its services to the Governor of the State at the first call from the President. William Shakespeare, then but seventeen years of age, was the first person to enroll his name. About three days thereafter Charles S. May received authority from Governor Blair to raise a company. Mr. Shakespeare asked permission to withdraw his name from Capt. Handy's company, and immediately, with Foley J. Tabor, enlisted in C. S. May's company, being also the first to enlist in that company. On the 27th of April the company raised by C. S. May and the one raised by Capt. Handy, but then commanded by Capt. Dwight May, were ordered to Detroit, where they were camped on the fair-grounds, and helped to form the 2d Michigan Infantry. After being in camp a short time the regiment was informed that the government would not accept any more three months' troops. Volun- teers for three years were then asked for, and Mr. Shake- speare was the first one in his company to offer, at the same time remarking that he "expected to serve the full time of three years and more, provided he was not killed or wounded." The remark called forth from those present some very severe comments, as it was then supposed that three months would be the utmost time that it would require to " drive the d-d rebels into the sea" (according to the remark of one of our captains while on the way to the first battle of Bull Run), and any one who did not believe it must have been almost a rebel himself. On May 25, 1861, the regiment was mustered into the service of the United States, and arrived at Washington about the 6th of June, going into camp on Georgetown Heights, where it immediately began the erection of the defenses of Chain Bridge, across the Potomac, a few miles above Washington. During the whole term of service Mr. Shakespeare was on the sick-roll but once, and lost but a few days' service until he was wounded at Jackson, Miss., on the 11th day of July, 1863, at which time he received no less than seven wounds, break- ing his left leg twice and the right once. Perhaps the
history of this first soldier to enlist in Kalamazoo County cannot be better given than by copying a letter from Col. O. M. Poe, chief engineer to Gen. Sherman, on his learning that he had been wounded :
" HEADQUARTERS MILITARY DIVISION OF THE MISSISSIPPI, "CHIEF ENGINEER'S OFFICE,
" NASHVILLE, TENN., March 10, 1864.
" ORD .- SERGT. W. SHAKESPEARE,
"Company K, 2d Regt. Mich. Vol. Inf. :
" DEAR COMRADE,-It gives me more pain than it is, perhaps, best to express to hear of the wounds and distress of any of those who marched and fought with me through so many of the terrible events of this Rebellion. I can only hope that in your case your fears may be unfounded, and that you may live to see the cause for which you have shed your blood completely triumph over its enemies.
"I recollect you, with your bright face and cheerful spirits, always ready for any and every duty, and cannot think of you now, stricken down just as manhood was claiming you.
"I remember one cold, sleety morning, in January, 1862, we were on picket at Potter's House, on the Pohick Road. Company K formed the reserve of the picket. I wanted a scout to go three miles to the front, and reach Pohick Church,* if possible. You were the corporal that commanded the small party of four men that went where I desired, and brought back the information I wanted. I can see you now as distinctly as then, starting through the mud and storm on that dangerous mission, and remember, as distinctly as then, my regrets that you were the person to go; you looked so young, so unable to undergo the hardship. But the eagerness with which you started showed that you shared none of my regrets.
"Our regiment, the very first to embark on that memorable Penin- sula campaign, had plenty of gallant spirits. The advance upon Yorktown, the duty before that place, the battle of Williamsburg, the advance to Chickahominy, the battle of Seven Pines (Fair Oaks), the picket duty in the White-Oak Swamp, the 'Seven Days' battles,' the movement down the Peninsula, the advance to the Rappahannock to the relief of Gen. Pope's army, the subsequent retreat to Centre- ville and occupation of that place; the second battle of Bull Run, the battle of Chantilly, the movement to intercept Stuart, the march to Warrenton, and thence to Fredericksburg and battle at that place (not to speak of the first Bull Run), Blackburn's Ford, defense of Bailey's Cross-Roads, etc., before I took command, and Vicksburg and Jackson after I relinquished the command, developed those spirits, and I can freely and conscientiously say that, high as they all stood in my estimation, yet Sergt. Shakespeare was in the front rank. This was not only my individual opinion, but I was supported in it by all the officers of the regiment. Although I did not witness your conduct at Jackson, where you were wounded, yet the universal tes- timony of the regiment was that you fell while doing your whole duty. No higher compliment can be paid you. * * * **
"God bless you, sergeant, and all others who have nobly stood by our country in her time of need. Should it be your fate to sink under your wounds, be assured that He has noticed your good deeds; that He has pardoned your shortcomings; and that you will receive the reward which none on earth can give. I believe these to be truths as firmly as I believe in God himself. May this cheer you in this your time of need is the prayer of your old colonel.
"O. M. POE, "Captain U. S. Engineers."
An extract from a letter written by the Lieutenant- Governor of this State to the Kalamazoo Telegraph, on the return of Sergt. Shakespeare from the war, will give the remainder of his military career :
"The return of this brave young officer, after his most honorable service of three years in the army, is worthy of more than a passing notice.
"At the commencement of the war Sergt. Shakespeare enlisted in Company K, 2d Infantry, and shared the fortunes of that gallant

regiment in all the campaigns in Virginia, on the Peninsula, and in Mississippi, winning steady promotion and the warmest commenda- tions of his superior officers, till in the battle at Jackson, in the latter State, he fell while gallantly leading his company in the charge, stricken down by a terrible and supposed fatal wound. For seven months he lay upon his back, helpless, alternating between life and death, when his iron will and strong constitution, more than any medicine or surgery, brought him slowly up, although he will be crippled for life.
"Sergt. Shakespeare is one of the heroes of this war. Kalamazoo should be proud of him. We have, among all our good soldiers and brave men, sent forth no more gallant and undaunted spirit than that fair-faced boy of cighteen, who comes back to us maimed and crippled by his honorable wounds. Such is the unanimous testimony of his officers and comrades. Let him enjoy, in the respect and sym- pathy of this whole community, some compensation for his great suffering in the cause of the country." .
Mr. Shakespeare is one of the early settlers of Kalama- zoo. Coming to this county in 1846, when a mere child, he has made his home here ever since, and is now in the practice of the law with the Hon. Nathaniel A. Balch.
