CHAPTER XVI.
CIVIL WAR .- ( Continued.)
SIXTEENTHI, TWENTY-FOURTH, AND TWENTY-FIFTH REGI- MENTS.
First Cavalry, Sixteenth Regiment .- The First Cavalry contained about forty men from Gloucester, Salem, and Cumberland Counties, of which number three-fourths were from Salem County, and most of these in Company E.
The regiment was raised in August, 1861, mainly by Hon. William Halsted, who was its first colonel. He was then near seventy years of age, and his mili- tary career, which continued about six months, was not successful.
He was succeeded in February, 1862, by Col. Sir Percy Wyndham, under whose command the regi- ment soon assumed a condition of efficiency ; and in April it entered upon active service, which it con- tinucd till the elose of its term. In June, 1863, many of the men re-enlisted for three years or during the war, and its organization and active service were continued to the end.
The service of this regiment was, like that of all cavalry regiments, different from that of infantry. In addition to participating in pitched battles, patro !- ing, scouting, raiding, harassing the flanks and rear of a retreating enemy, or impeding the march of an I advancing column, and all service in which celerity

GENERAL HISTORY.
of movement is essential, must necessarily be per- formed by mounted soldiers; and they are, therefore, oftener in action than those of any other branch of the service. During the winter season, while bodies of infantry and batteries of artillery are established in their winter quarters, squadrons and detachmentsi of cavalry are required to be constantly on the alert, to seour the country, and prevent surprises, or to barass the enemy by freqnent raids and sudden at- tacks on exposed positions. In such operations the First New Jersey Cavalry was engaged, and the record, in the adjutant-general's office, of ninety- seven engagements in which it participated, is evi- denee of the fact that its members were never in danger of " spoiling for a fight." The tattered flag that was carried in ninety-two of the ninety-seven engagements of this regiment is now in the adjutant- general's office at Trenton.
