CAPTAIN SOUTHARD'S ENGINEERS.
The next company to leave the county was that of Major (then Lieutenant) H. M. Dalrymple, who raised a part of Captain Southard's company for the 8th engineer corps-Company K of the ist regiment of New York engineers. The company was entirely made up of New Jersey men. Its captain, Henry L. Southard, was a Jer. seyman by birth and son of the late Senator Southard of this State. He was killed while on duty at Bermuda Hundred, Va., in May 1864. Lieutenant Henry M. Dal- rymple, also adjutant of the regiment, succeeded to the command and retained it during the operations in front of Petersburg and Richmond, until mustered out of ser- vice in December 1864, at the expiration of his term of three years' service.
The company served with the regiment in the Depart- ment of the South, engaging in all the various operations under Generals Sherman, Hunter, Mitchell and Gilmore. It participated in the siege of Pulaski, the battle of Pocataligo, the expedition to Charleston under Hunter, and the siege of Fort Sumter and Charleston under Gen- eral Gilmore, erecting the famous Swamp Angel battery,
