On the fourteenth and fifteenth, the regiment erected a breastwork of logs, in front of which, from stump to stump, a network of telegraph wire was strung, to trip an advancing enemy.
On the morning of the sixteenth of May was fought the celebrated "fog fight," Beauregard concentrating his troops about Fort Darling, and making a grand sortie to drive back the besiegers. Under cover of a dense fog the rebels silently formed their lines outside of the works, and made a furious attack upon the extreme right, to turn that flank of our army. HECKMAN's and WISTAR's Brig- ades bore the brunt of the attack. The Second fought, among other rebel troops, several companies of the " fine young men" of Richmond, who had been brought out for the emergency. A rebel flag was planted a short distance at the front of our line in a spirit of bravado, and then the mass of charging rebels burst into sight. The rifles of the regiment were emptied into the advancing ranks with terrible effect, while the line was thrown into inex- tricable confusion by the wires upon the stumps, which tripped the men and sent them sprawling upon the ground, the wounded and the uninjured piled up together. Our men, in the excitement of the moment, leaped upon their
170
SECOND N. H. REGIMENT.
log breastworks, and plied their rifles with terrible effect. The attack was renewed again, desperately, but with the same result. The ground in front of the breastworks was literally matted with mangled gray - clad forms. The regiment never in any fight inflicted such terrible punish- ment upon the enemy as here, Lieut. Col. COOPER (then adjutant) estimating their loss in front of the regiment at not far from two thousand. A rebel who was engaged in the fight and afterwards taken prisoner, acknowledged to one of our men that their loss on the right of the turnpike was about eighteen hundred, and also expressed the opin- ion that the wire arrangement was a " d-d rascally con- trivance." Yet we suffered a very slight proportionate loss-four killed and fourteen wounded. Among the killed was the lamented Capt. JAMES H. PLATT, of Com- pany E. During the hottest of the fight he had just called the attention of Lieut. LORD to the withering effect of our fire, when a rifle bullet pierced his brain, and he expired almost immediately. His body was. con- veyed in an ambulance to City Point, embalmed and sent to New Hampshire, where it now sleeps in the beautiful Valley Cemetery at Manchester.
But while we were repulsing the rebel attacks so hand- somely, a strong force was marching clear around the right of HECKMAN'S Brigade, which suddenly received a volley from the rear. The brigade was broken and crushed, the men slaughtered, and the general wounded and taken prisoner. The right was thus turned, and the Second was ordered to fall back, which it did for a short distance, when, in obedience to orders, it advanced and occupied the breastworks far a second time until the whole line was withdrawn, and a new one established a few hundred

yards to the rear. The remainder of the day was passed in skirmishing and manœuvering; and at night BUTLER withdrew to Bermuda Hundred.
We were now placed in a state of siege, and the utmost diligence was displayed in the erection of a line of works across the Peninsula, which were soon completed, the men laboring night and day. The portion of the line occupied by the Eighteenth Corps, presented an unusually strong front, a part of its distance being swept by the gunboats on the Appomattox, and the rest fronting upon almost impassable ravines. Upon the centre and right were broad, open fields, over which the Tenth Corps were con- tinually fighting with the enemy, and many a time did the firing upon that portion of the line become so brisk that the whole Eighteenth Corps was turned out and formed behind the works. On the twentieth a severe fight was had over some of our advanced rifle- pits, in which the rebel Maj. Gen. WALKER was severely wounded and captured. At night the gunboats often shelled the woods in our front, their ponderous shells howling and crashing through the trees in a line parallel with the works, until they ended their career in stunning explosions.
Thus the time passed until the twenty - seventh. On that day our division deserted the works, which were occupied by dismounted cavalry, squads of invalids and detachments from the Tenth Corps. We marched about a mile to the rear, and camped until five o'clock on the afternoon of the twenty- eighth, when we crossed the Appomattox on a pontoon bridge, and marched to City Point, which was garrisoned by the negro division of our corps. The movement was a blind one to the men, who, for once, were at a loss to account for the movement or to

guess at its destination. It afterwards came out that the movement was commenced with a view to a morning as- sault upon a portion of the rebel works about Petersburg, but an order arriving from Gen. GRANT for a reinforce- ment from BUTLER's Army, we were diverted from our original course and sent to join the Lieutenant General, as will be detailed in the next chapter.
CHAPTER XX.
-
COLD HARBOR.
T sunrise on the twenty - ninth of May, the division embarked upon transports and steamed down the James, the Sec- ond Regiment occupying the new pro- peller "General Lyon." At nine o'clock the little fleet anchored off Yorktown; and early the next morn- ing we were again on our way, up the turbid waters of the York. At West Point we entered the Pamunky, nar- row, tortuous and difficult of naviga- tion. Our troubles now commenced, for the General Lyon, with its great draft of water, was continually run- ning aground, and one time she remained with her keel in the mud for five hours before she was extricated. To the Pamunky we are willing to give the palm as being the most crooked river we ever traversed. One could hardly trace upon paper a line with more contortions than is dis- played by this stream. At one time we saw, as it ap-
174
SECOND N. II. REGIMENT.
peared to us, the leading transports turn and steam their way back. The conclusion was that a rebel battery had been encountered, and that the transports were coming back to give the gunboats a chance; but we soon discov- cred that we had been deceived by a huge ox - bow turn of the river.
When about two miles from White House our transport ran aground and could not be pulled off. So the next morning we were taken off by a ferry - boat and landed at White House. The wreck and ruins of canal - boats and barges which had been destroyed during the Peninsula campaign still lined the shores, and the two blackened chimneys were all that remained of the celebrated " White House." During the forenoon the knapsacks and all superfluous luggage was packed to be sent to Norfolk, and at three o'clock in the afternoon we set out to join the Army of the Potomac, which had so valiantly fought its way from the Rapidan to Cold Harbor. We camped at about nine in the evening near Old Church, where the western horizon was bright with the light from the camp - fires of GRANT's great army.
The next day, the first of June, we joined the Army of the Potomac. The division guarded a wagon train to Gen. GRANT's headquarters, and immediately pushed on where the Sixth Corps was skirmishing with the enemy, about a mile beyond. The division was marched rapidly down the dusty road, and precipitated into the fight im- mediately. There was much hot work, and the rebels were driven into their main line of entrenchments, leaving many prisoners in our hands. The Second Regiment, although under a hot artillery fire, and losing several men, was not actively engaged. The next day the division lay
175
COLD HARBOR.
in an open field, across which, within long rifle range, a rebel flag waved defiantly in the summer air. In the woods to either side of the field lay line upon line of our troops, while a single line was extended across the field, sheltered by a rude breastwork, in front of which were little holes from which the pickets kept up a continual fire. At night the division moved to the right, and made their bivouac just to the rear of a triple line of breast- works. It was well known that there was to be a terrible fight on the morrow, and the men, as they sipped their coffee by the camp - fires discussed the position as only soldiers can, and wondered who of the number would " go up" in the approaching conflict.
The morning of the second dawned, and with its first beams the division advanced down through the works and formed in the cover of the woods. The charge which ensued upon the rebel works-the battle of Cold Har- bor-was bloody in the extreme, but we shall confine ourselves to the movements of our own brigade and regi- ment. The brigade was closed in mass by battalion, the Twelfth New Hampshire being the first and the Second the fifth battalion in the column. The order was given to ad- vance, and as the brigade dashed from the woods it was greeted with a terrible fire from artillery and from the thousands of deadly tubes which bristled from the rebel works. The men dropped by scores, but the column dashed forward for full two hundred yards-more than half the distance-when the Twelfth, which had been slaughtered mercilessly, halted, and was thrown back by the pitiless hail. The three intervening regiments also broke, and the ranks of the Second were thrown into confu- sion; but in the edge of the woods the men halted and re-
176
SECOND N. H. REGIMENT.
formed the lines. The rebel bullets every moment sought their victims, and to protect themselves the men, lying flat on the ground and using their hands, bayonets and knives, threw up little mounds of earth to shelter themselves, which were afterwards added to and elaborated into ser- vicable rifle - pits. Men were being constantly wounded. Capt. GEORGE W. GORDON, of Company I, was struck in the top of the head by a bullet, and died at the hospital in less than an hour. Capt. WILLIAM H. SMITH, of Company B, was wounded through both legs, and though no bones were injured he died on the seventh. Lieut. HARRY HAYWARD, of Company D, was using a rifle, shooting at a point where an obnoxious sharpshooter was stationed, when a bullet pierced his neck, and he lived but a few hours. Sergt. Maj. MOSES L. F. SMITHI Was shot through the thighs, living a short time in dreadful agony. A bullet struck close by the head of Lient. GEO. T. CARTER, of Company I. "CARTER's got it!" ex- claimed a comrade. "No, I guess not," exclaimed the lieutenant, raising his head, when a bullet, better aimed than the first, struck him in the head and inflicted an ugly wound. Dr. BUNTON, the assistant surgeon, established a field hospital in a hole which he dug with his own hands a short distance from the line of battle, and thus rendered prompt aid to many for whom delay would have been dangerous. The entire loss of the regiment this day was not far from seventy, and many of those killed had but four days longer to serve, when their three years of ser- vice would have expired.
The dead and wounded remained upon the field between the two lines, and during the night the men crawled out to the assistance of their wounded companions, and many
.

were brought in who lay close by the rebel pickets. Dur- ing the days which now ensued there was a constant fusil- ade, and men were wounded and killed daily. Regiments whose time had expired often had men killed in the ranks while marching to the rear on their way home, and the field we have before spoken of was dotted with the graves of men who had been shot while crossing it.
On the morning of the eighth the original men who had not re-enlisted were marched from the trenches to return to their native State. It was a sad occasion, the parting of the men who for three years had stood together as brothers in danger and trial, and if tears were shed they were not evidences of unmanly weakness. "I will tell you what it is, boys," exclaimed one of the men, "when I think what we have been through together, and all about the last three years, it makes me almost decide that I'll not go home till you do." And not a man but felt more or less of this sentiment.
On the ninth we embarked at White House on the Young America, anchoring for the night near Yorktown. The next day we went to Norfolk for our baggage, which had been stored there; and on the eleventh the quarter- master at Fortress Monroe informed us that if we would unload the propeller Detroit we could have her as a transport to New York. The ship was unloaded in an astonishingly short time, and at half-past eight we bade farewell to the soil of Virginia, the scene of our three years campaigns, the grave of so many brave comrades.
We arrived in New York during the evening of the thirteenth, took the "Commonwealth" the next day for Groton, and at eleven o'clock in the forenoon of the sev- enteenth were once more in the capital of the old Granite 8

State. The citizens of Concord laid out for a grand reception, which did not come off because the soldiers scattered for their homes until hardly two of them re- mained together. They appreciated the good feelings of the Concord people, and thanked them sincerely, but after such an absence as they had experienced, the claims of families and personal friends took the precedence.
On Tuesday, the twenty - first day of June, 1864, the men assembled at Concord, and in the State House Yard listened to the last roll - call of the companies, and the words of the mustering officer which once more made them citizens-"Mustered out of the United States Service."
