The regiment moved from Gettysburg with other troops in pursuit of the retiring enemy to Williamsport, on the upper Potomac, and afterwards, the pursuit having been abandoned, marched down the river to Berlin, crossed from that point into Virginia, and moved by way of Manassas Gap to a beautiful camp at Fauquier White Sulphur Springs, where and in that locality it remained until the 16th of August, when orders were received for the Fifth and Third Michigan Regiments to report at Alexandria, Va. The movement ordered was a mysterious one, and al kinds of surmises were indulged in by officers and men as to their probable ultimate destination.
The Fifth Regiment embarked at Alexandria. August 22d, on board the ocean steamer " Baltic," which had also on board four other regiments of the " Ohio brigade," to which the Fifth was at that time temporarily attached. The ship moved down the Potomac early in the morning of the 23d. but had ouly proceeded as far as Matthias Point when she grounded on a sand-bar, and remained fast in that position 1 for four days. By removing the anchor, three hundred

tons of coal, and two regiments, and with the assistance of five tug boats, she at last got afloat and moved down the river and through Chesapeake Bay to the ocean, where she turned northward towards her destination (which was the city of New York), and arrived there on the 30th. The troops, which had been sent here to assist in quelling the draft riots, if necessary, were disembarked on Governor's Island. The Third Michigan had preceded the Fifth by another vessel, and these two regiments were now ordered to proceed up the Hudson River to Troy. They embarked on river steamers, reaching Troy the next morning. They were first quartered at the armory, a day or two later at the court- house, and finally, on the 5th of September, they were removed to the Fair-Grounds. The Trojans were very much surprised at seeing two Michigan regiments in their streets, but they received them most hospitably, so that the men of the Fifth counted their stay at Troy among the most pleasant of all their war experiences. No duty be- yond that of the camp and the drill-ground was required of the regiment during its sojourn at Troy, and the neces- sity for its presence there having passed it left on Sunday evening, September 13th, for New York by steamer, and arriving there in the following morning, left immediately by railroad for Washington under orders to rejoin the Army of the Potomae. It arrived at Washington in the night of September 15th, and three days later proceeded to Alex- andria, whence, after a stop of one day, it was moved to Fairfax Station, and from there to the camp of its old bri- gade, between that place and Culpeper. The brigade was the Third of the First Division, Third Corps, Army of the Potomac.
On the 17th of November the regiment moved to the Rappahannock River, erossed at Kelly's Ford, and soon after moved to near Brandy Station, occupying a deserted camp of the enemy. On the 26th it crossed the Rapidan with the forees which were moving to Mine Run. Taking part in that expedition, it was engaged at Locust Grove on the 27th, and there lost several killed and wounded. It reached the front of the enemy's works at Mine Run, where for thirty-six hours it remained in support of a battery. From Mine Run the Fifth fell back with the army, and again occupied its camp at Brandy Station, which became its winter quarters until the 28th, when (the requisite num- ber of re-enlistments having been obtained) it left for Michigan on veteran furlough. It arrived on the 4th of January at Detroit, which was designated as the rendez- vous, and then its members entered upon a brief period of freedom and enjoyment with their families and friends.
Having been considerably augmented by recruiting during its stay in Michigan, the Fifth Regiment, composed of veterans and recruits, left Detroit on the 10th of Feb- ruary, 1864, and proceeding by way of Washington, reached Brandy Station in the evening of the 17th, and marched four miles northwest to eamp, and took position with its old command in the Army of the Potomac. In the latter part of March a general order was issued dissolving the First and Third Corps, and consolidating their troops with those of the Second, Fifth, and Sixth Corps. The First and Second Divisions of the Third Corps were transferred to the Second Corps, and made to constitute its Third Division. 7
The Third Division of the old corps was transferred to the Sixth Corps .* " Thus," wrote a member of the Fifth Regiment,-A. K. Sweet, of Detroit,-" was wiped out of existence the gallant old Third Corps, with which our for- tunes had been so long associated, and of which we formed a part. Its glorious name, which we in some small degree had helped to make illustrious, and in which we justly felt a soldier's pride, became one of the things that were. The corps had long been a mere skeleton of its former self. The old Third Division had been consolidated with the First and Second immediately after the battle of Gettys- burg, and a new division of ten thousand fresh troops, under command of Gen. French, added. The old com- manders of heroic fame, whom the men had learned to love and respect, had gone, and a stranger filled the place of command made glorious by Heintzelman and Hooker. Still the glorious associations that clustered around the name gave it a tender place in our hearts, and when at last its death-knell struck, and the men so long associated in a common history of the toil and triumph separated to their various destinations, many a brave fellow felt a twinge of sorrow and pain like that which pierces the heart as we stand at the grave of a friend, and the cold clods of the valley close over the dear face and shut it from our sight forever.
" On the 31st of March we broke camp and marched to the south side of the railroad in the vicinity of Brandy Station, and took up our new quarters in the Second Brigade, Third Division, and Second Corps. The men were allowed to retain the diamond badge,-a deference to their feelings which was thankfully appreciated. The sense of pain and disgrace slowly passed away as we became better acquainted with our new companions in arms, for they were as fine a corps of men as the Army of the l'o- tomae or any other in the world could boast, and we were now under command of a general of brilliant abilities and most intrepid bravery, Gen. W. S. Hancock. Gen. D. B. Birney, our old brigade and division commander, was in command of the division. We soon began to feel at home in our new relations, and with the old red diamond to re- mind us of the glorious past, we were soon ready as ever to do and dare for the honor of the old flag and the success of the common cause.
". . . Towards the last of April nature had begun to spread her rich garniture of green over hill and plain, and soft gales from Southland fanned us with the first delicious breath of spring. The warm sunshine, as May approached, soon dried up the mud from the spring rains, and the roads were once more in a condition for the movement of army trains. On every hand the sure indications of an early opening of field operations were apparent. A few days of bustle and preparation and the last finishing touches were complete. A week of comparative quiet followed, like the lull that precedes the bursting of the storm, and then, on the evening of the 3d of May, the first move in what will go down to history as the great campaign of the war commenced. No drum-beat or bugle-note sounds a warning, but silently as

spectres in a dream, regiments, brigades, and divisions leave their camps and fall into line. Already the vanguard is on the march, and the dull tramp, tramp, comes from out the darkness mingled with the low rumbling of artillery and baggage trains. The camp-fires, as they light up the scene with their fitl'ul glare, reveal the faces of the men as they stand leaning on their guns awaiting their turn to fall into the line of march. They have little time to wait, for every- thing moves with clock-like precision, and the long lines follow each other in quick snecession and disappear in the darkness, until at last what was a few hours before a vast city of snowy tents, with streets thronging with busy life, is now one vast tenantless expanse of smouldering camp- fires, over which broods the midnight stillness, unbroken save by the echoes that come fainter and fainter from the distant footsteps of the receding hosts.
" The morning finds us still on the march and nearing the Rapidan, which we cross without opposition at Ely's Ford, about nine A.M. We rest half an hour on the heights beyond, from which we enjoy a fine view of the surround- ing country,-a picturesque succession of hill and plain, with its distant background of mountains against the west- ern horizon.
" The men, having marched all night with only a short respite at sunrise for coffee and ' hard tack,' began to feel the need of rest and sleep. But the march is soon re- sumed and pushed forward at a rapid pace. The weather is uncommonly hot for the time of year, and the narrow forest-roads, walled in on either side by a dense under- growth, afforded scarce a breath of cooling air. It was the first march of the season, and the men had not become hardened to fatigue by exposure. But tired, sleepy, and footsore, we hobbled on as best we could until about two P.M , when we arrived on the old battle-ground of Chancel- lorsville and halted for the rest of the day.
" How familiar looks every object around ! There is the old Chancellorsville House, where Gen. Hooker had his headquarters. But only the roofless, blackened walls re- main ; the rest was destroyed by fire during the battle. Farther on is the little country cemetery, with its white fence and the white farm-house standing near, around which raged the fiercest tide of battle on that lovely Sab- bath morning in May. There is the field hard by where the regiment lay for two hours or more the target for a rebel battery. Just across that low swale, a little to the left, is the open field where that battery stood, and on which, the night before, Birney's division formed for the midnight charge; and there, too, is the thick hedge of cedars bordering the field, through which we tore our way to the charge, making night hideous with yell and whoop and wild uproar, as if Pandemonium had turned loose all its fiends at once.
" There is the old rifle-pit along the edge of the swale still standing, and the narrow belt of open timber between it and the plank-road, where the regiment rallied after the uproar had subsided, and, in blissful ignorance of our im- minent danger, passed the remainder of the night in sleep. And here on the same ground and almost the identical spot we again bivouac for the night."
The men of the Fifth had started on the campaign each
carrying five days' rations, and sixty rounds of ammunition. In the morning of the 5th of May the regiment left its bivouac at Chancellorsville, and moved on the road leading to Orange Court-House. The enemy was met, and a des- perate battle ensucd. On the morning of the 6th the regi- ment was again engaged, making a successful charge on the rebel works, capturing a stand of colors and thirteen hun- dred prisoners, and suffering in this, as in the fight of the previous day, a heavy loss in killed and wounded. By the loss of Col. Pulford and Maj. Matthews (both severely wounded in the fight of the 5th of May, the command of the regiment had devolved on Capt. Wakenshaw. In the battle of the 6th he also fell, severely wounded, losing his right arm.
The Fifth was again engaged with the enemy on the 8th of May, and lay under a heavy artillery fire until noon of the 10th. It fought again on the 11th, and (with the rem- nant of the Third Michigan, which was acting with it) took part in the charge on the enemy's works at Spottsyl- vania Court-House on the 12th. In this charge it eap- tured two stands of the rebel colors, and was highly com- plimented for gallant conduct both by Gen. Hancock aud Gen. Meade.
'From Spottsylvania it moved forward by forced marches, and, on the 23d of May, took part in the assault of the works on the north bank of the North Anna River, at Jericho Bridge; the regiment carried them, captured a number of prisoners, and drove the rebel force across the river. In the afternoon of the 24th the regiment crossed the river under a very heavy artillery fire, and again drove the enemy from his position. On the 27th it recrossed the North Anna and marched to the Pamunkey River, which it crossed the same day. From the 28th to the 31st of May the wearied and hungry men worked day and night throwing up fortifications, and on the latter date the regi- ment took part in a charge upon a line of works, which they gallantly carried. Marching from the Pamunkey. it reached Cokl Harbor on the 5th of June, and immediately commenced the crection of earthworks. It remained here a week, and during that time the Third Michigan Infantry (having become reduced to a mere skeleton, and the term of service of a large part of its men having expired) was consolidated with the Fifth under the following field-order of the corps commander, viz. :
" HEADQUARTERS SECOND ARMY CORPS. " June 10, 1864.
" Special Orders.
(Extract.)

(Signed) " FRANCIS A. WALKER, " Assistant Adjutant-General."
The order was confirmed by the War Department on the 13th of June.
The Fifth left Cold Harbor June 12th, crossed the Chickahominy at Long Bridge on the same day, reached Ilarrison's Landing on the 13th, crossed the James River on the 14th, and arrived in front of Petersburg late in the night of the 15th. On the following day, towards evening, it was engaged with the enemy, and carried the assaulted line of works.
During all the memorable but monotonous siege of Peters- burg, from the time when the regiment reached the front of that stronghold until the close of the great drama of the Rebellion, the service of the Fifth Michigan embraced a series of movements, changes of position, labors on fortifi- cations, picket and railroad duty, life in the trenches, marchings, skirmishes, and battles, which it would be too tedious to follow or to enumerate. In its assanfts upon the works in front of Petersburg, during the campaign of 1864, its loss was fifteen killed, fifty-two wounded, and nineteen missing,-total, eighty-six. It fought at Deep Bottom, July 27th, 28th, with a loss of twelve wounded, and at Boydton Plank-Road, October 27th, losing nine killed, fifty-two wounded, and forty-three missing. It was also engaged at Strawberry Plains, August 14th to 17th, and at Poplar Spring Church on the 30th of September. During the year following the commencement of the Mine Run ex- pedition, in November, 1863, the total loss of the regiment, in killed, wounded, and missing, was five hundred and forty- nine.
From October, 1864, to the middle of January, 1865 the Fifth occupied Fort Davis, in the front line of works at Petersburg. On the 15th of January it formed a part of the force with which Gen. Warren made his raid south- ward to the Weldon Railroad; and after its return from that expedition was posted for about two weeks at IJum- phrey's Station, and then moved back to the front of Petersburg, and remained there until the 25th of March,
when it moved with other forces to Hatcher's Run, and took part in the assault on the works at that place, sustain- ing the weight of a heavy engagement for four hours. In the final assault on Petersburg the Fifth took part, and is said to have been the first to plant its colors on the cap- tured works. On the 6th of April the regiment with its brigade attacked the retreating enemy at Sailor's Creek, and captured a stand of colors and a large number of pris- oners. The enemy being followed closely by the brigade on the 7th and 8th of April, the Fifth Regiment, aeting as flankers and skirmishers, became engaged at New Store, but with slight loss. And finally, on the 9th, it was present in the front, in line of battle, at the surrender of the Con- federate army by Gen. Lee. It lay at Clover Hill, near the place of surrender, until the 13th, when it moved back to Burkeville, and on the Ist of May started on the march to Washington by way of Richmond.
The regiuient took its place in the great review of the Army of the Potomac, at Washington, May 23d, and re- mained in the vicinity of the city until June 10th, when it left for the West, proceeding by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to Parkersburg, W. Va., and thence by steamer on the Ohio to Louisville, which place it reached on the 14th. Moving to Jeffersonville, on the north side of the Ohio, it remained there until July 4th, when it was mus- ered out of the service as a regiment, and on the 6th left by railroad for Detroit, where it arrived on the 8th, and where, on the 17th of July, 1865, the men of the Fighting Fifth received their pay and discharge.
