In the campaign which succeeded the arrival of the Fifteenth in the valley the regiment took conspicuous part and fully sustained its reputation. It fought at Strasburg on the 15th of August and at Winchester
on the 17th, losing seventy men in the two engage- ments. Again, at Opequan, near Winchester, on the 19th of September, it suffered a loss of about fifty men killed and wounded. On the 21st it was en- gaged in heavy skirmishing, and lost seventeen in killed and wounded. It displayed great gallantry at the battle of Fisher's Hill, Va., on the 22d, and took part in the pursuit of the flying enemy to Staunton.
On the 19th of October, at Cedar Creek,-the famous battle-field to which Sheridan rode on his black charger " from Winchester, twenty miles away," -after parts of the Eighth and Nineteenth Corps had been surprised and routed, "the Sixth Corps moved rapidly by a flank across the track of their advance, and the Jersey brigade occupied the most advanced and difficult position, holding it firmly under severe fire. Once it was ordered back to the general align- ment, but, its former place being considered a key po- sition, it was ordered to retake it, which it did, and held it tenaciously and successfully until again ordered to retire, with the whole corps, to the new line selected for strategic reasons ( the first having been assumed in the haste and confusion of the morning)." In this action the color-guard were all killed except three, the commanding officer, Col. Campbell, was wounded, and Maj. Lambert Boeman, of Flemington, previously of the Fifteenth, but then in command of the Tenth New Jersey, was killed.
Cedar Creek was the last field on which the Fifteenth fought in the Shenandoah valley. On the Ist of De- cember it moved with the Sixth Corps to rejoin the Army of the Potomac before Petersburg, and remained there till the following spring. It was never again heavily engaged, though it took part in the final as- sault on the enemy's works on the 2d of April, 1865, sustaining trifling loss. When the Rebellion was unded by the surrender of Lee at Appomattox the Fifteenth was sent to Danville, Va., where it re- mained five or six weeks, and in the latter part of May was transported, by way of Washington, to Trenton, where it was disbanded, and the surviving members returned to their homes,
The official list of actions of greater or less import- ance in which the Fifteenth was engaged during the war is recorded in the office of the adjutant-general of the State as follows: Fredericksburg, Va., Dec. 13 and 14, 1862; Fredericksburg, Va., May 3, 1863; Sa- lem Heights, Va., May 3 and 4, 1863; Franklin's ('rossing, Va., June 6 to 14, 1863; Gettysburg, Pa., July 2 and 3, 1863; Fairfield, Pa., July 5, 1863; Funktown, Mdl., July 10, 1863; Rappahannock Sta- tion, Va., Det. 12, 1863 ; Rappahannock Station, Va., Nov. 7, 1863; Mine Run, Va., Nov. 30, 1863; Wil- derness, Va., May 5 to 7, 1864; Spottsylvania, Va ..

The number of deaths which occurred in the regi- ment during its term of service was as follows: From disease, ninety-nine ; from wounds received in battle, two hundred and forty-seven; from starvation and other causes, in rebel prisons, fifteen.
Through all its war experience the Fifteenth Regi- ment always did its duty. "No regiment fought with more tenacious courage or presented a more unbroken front to the foe. Where the fire was hot- test, the charge most impetuous, the resistance most stubborn, the carnage most fearful, it was found. It was never ordered to take a position that it did not reach it ; it was never required to hold a post that it did not hold it; it never assaulted a line of the enemy that it did not drive it ; it never charged a rehel work that it did not breach it. Whatever might be the general result, the Fifteenth New Jersey Regiment always performed the part assigned it."
