honorably upon the soldiers from Oswego county, as will be seen in the following extract :

I concur with the division commanders in their estimate of the good conduct and valuable services of he following-named officers and men: General Cutler, com- manding the Second Brigade, says : " Colonel Hofman, 56th Pennsylvania Volunteers, Major Harney, 147th New York Volunteers, Captain Cook, 76th New York Volunteers, deserve special mention for gallantry and coolness; Colonel Fowler, 14th Brooklyn, for charging the enemy at the railroad cut, in connection with the 95th New York Volunteers and 6th Wisconsin, by which the 147th New York Volunteers was released from its perilous position ; Lieutenant-Colonel Miller, commanding the 147th New York Volunteers, was severely wounded at the head of his regiment on the 1st instant. Major Harney, of the 147th New York Volunteers, and Major Pye, of the 95th New York Volunteers, on assuming command of their respective regiments, did all that brave men and good soldiers could do, and deserve well for their services. Sergeant H. H. Hubbard, Co. D, 147th New York Volunteers, was in command of the provost guard of the brigade, eighteen strong, on the morning of the 1st instant. He formed the guard on the right of the 76th New York Volunteers, and fought until the battle was over, losing twelve of his men. The color sergeant of the 147th New York Volunteers was killed, and the colors were caught by Sergt. Wm. A. Wybourn, of . Co. I, 147th New York Volunteers, and brought off the battle field by him, notwith- standing he was himself severely wounded."

On the second day of the battle the 147th were posted on Culp's Hill, and were not engaged until towards evening, when they made a charge upon the enemy, who had gained some rude breastworks on the summit of the hill, and drove him out, restoring the lines.

On the 3d the 147th continued with the force that held Culp's Hill, one of the most important points along the line, and on which the enemy repeatedly charged during the night of the 2d and the day of the 3d, necessitating constant action. An incident illustrating the desperate valor of the enemy is thus related :

In a charge more determined and vigorous than usual, after persistent fighting, their line broke; a number of their men took refuge behind a large rock in front of the 147th, but it did not wholly protect them from a flank fire from both sides. They were gradually being picked off by our men. They began to wave handkerchiefs and give other tokens of surrender. This was seen by an officer on General Ewell's staff at a distance from our right. He immediately started to ride across our front to arrest it. He and his orderlies were immediately riddled by bullets.1

The Union army lay on their arms all night and in the morning of

the 4th news was brought that the enemy had withdrawn. The battle of Gettysburg is considered by many as the decisive event of the war -the turning point where began the downfall of the Confederacy. The losses of the 147th during the 2d and 3d were large, considering their meager numbers. The following were killed on these two days: John Hart, Co. C: Sergt. Joseph Stuyvesant, Co. C; Sylvester Taylor, second lieutenant Co. E; Sylvester Quick, Co. K; Francis Dodd, Co. H, died July 3, from typhoid fever, at Fairfax Seminary. Lieut. John F. Box, Company A, was wounded and lost an arm.

The time from July 6, after the battle of Gettysburg, to July 23, was occupied by the long march to Warrenton, Va. While at Keedysville, on the 21st, a detail of three, Lieut .- Col. Miller, Capt. James Coey, and Lieutenant Gillett, was sent to Elmira for recruits to fill the depleted ranks of the regiment. The First Corps left Warrenton for Warrenton Junction July 25, crossed the Rappahannock August 2, and after some skirmishing, lay at Rappahannock Station until September 16; thence marched to near Culpepper and remained until September 24, and thence to Raccoon Ford on the Rapidan. October 6, 142 recruits were received in the regiment and eighty more on the 9th. On the Ioth the regiment marched to Morgan's Ford, and returned to near Culpepper in the night. The First Corps formed a part of the retreat- ing army to Centerville and the entire Army of the Potomac took shelter again behind Bull Run. On the 16th of October the 147th received 100 more recruits. The following promotions took place about this time: Sergt. H. H. Hubbard, to second lieutenant for gallant conduct at Gettysburg ; James A. McKinley, first lieutenant, to captain ; Volney J. Pierce, first lieutenant Co. G, to captain Co. D ; Joseph Dempsey, second lieutenant Co. K, to first lieutenant ; Edward Semler, sergeant Co. E, to second lieutenant, vice Lieutenant Taylor, killed at Gettysburg ; Sidney Gaylord, sergeant Co. E, to second lieu- tenant; James W. Kingsley, sergeant Co. K, to second lieutenant Co. K.

The following died in hospitals : George W. Box, Co. C, September 22, 1863 ; Charles H. Backus, sergeant Co. D; Levi M. Wallace, Co. E. August 18, 1863 ; William Edmonds, Co. F, September 17, 1863 ; Horace Cheever, Co. F, Asa Westcott, Co. F, July 25, 1863.

THE ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVENTH REGIMENT.

October 19, 1863, the 147th and the First Corps advanced through Thoroughfare Gap, and on the 9th of November crossed the Rappahan- nock, driving the enemy out of their comfortable quarters and across the Rapidan. They were followed by the Union forces across the latter river, the First Corps crossing at Germania Ford. On the 28th they marched to Robinson's Tavern, in the Wilderness. There the First Corps charged the enemy and drove them across Mine Run, where it was expected a battle would follow; but the weather had meanwhile become intensely cold, and on the Ist of December the army fell back. About January 1, 1864, the First Corps moved to Culpepper and went into winter quarters, where, in an excellent camp, the health of the 147th immediately improved, the hospitals were emptied, and the win- ter passed in comparative enjoyment. During the winter the following promotions took place :

Lieutenant Colonel F. C. Miller, promoted to colonel, November 24, 1863, vice J. G. Butler, discharged on surgeon's certificate of disability ; Major G. Harney, promoted lieutenant-colonel, December 15, vice F. C. Miller, promoted; D. Farling, adjutant, promoted major, December 15, vice G. Harney, promoted ; H. H. Lyman, second lieu- tenant Co.

In the spring of 1864 before the opening of the campaign, a reor- ganization was effected in the army, by which the First Corps, contain- ing the 147th, was merged in the Fifth Corps, under Major- General Warren, and many other similar changes were made. General Grant had taken command of all the armies, and on March 29 he reviewed the Army of the Potomac. On the 5th of May began the campaign of the Wilderness, Spottsylvania and Petersburg. On that day the Fifth Corps met the enemy near Mine Run on the Rapidan, where the whole of the Pennsylvania Reserves were captured, and the 147th found them- selves in a cul de sac, from which they with difficulty escaped. Many were taken prisoners ; Colonel Miller was severely wounded and cap- tured, and Adjutant Lyman was among the prisoners taken. In the effort to rally the brigade the loss in the 147th in killed, wounded and prisoners was large. During the succeeding two days' fighting the reg- iment was often actively engaged, and the First Division in the two days' fight lost over half its number. The battle was mostly fought in dense thickets, and in that respect was almost unique in the annals of war. After the battle the Union army crossed the fords, and on the morning of the 7th Grant started with his forces, and about 20,000 wounded in ambulances and wagons, for Spottsylvania, fifteen miles distant. But Lee reached there first and fortified his position. On the

morning of the 8th the 147th repelled an attack of the enemy, with considerable loss ; and again on the 10th was engaged until it ran out of ammunition, when it was relieved. On the 12th the regiment went on the skirmish line at 5 A. M., without breakfast ; charged through a thicket to the enemy's works; but was repulsed. The regiment then went about five miles to the left to engage in one of the most fiercely contested battles of the war.

Five desperate attacks were made by Lee's army upon the Union lines, and were repulsed with slaughter each time. Part of the Fifth Corps, containing the 147th, was moved up in the evening to aid in holding our position. Every man was given 250 rounds of ammuni- tion and ordered to keep up a constant fire during the night. In the morning the enemy had disappeared. On the IIth of May the brave General Rice had his thigh shattered by a bullet, and died in the even- ing after its amputation. Lieutenant- Colonel Harney was slightly wounded the same afternoon. In these several days of fighting and from sickness in the Wilderness and at Spottsylvania the losses of the 147th were as follows :

Co. A-Arnold Brown, Benoni Baker, David Bird, George Bull, William Backus, Job G. Campbell, Abram I. White, John F. Peer, May 8; Drisdon Fournier, wounded May 5, died August 16.

June 3, but this regiment was not engaged. The following were killed in battle or died in hospital from May 22, to June 19 :

K, May 25; Franklin B. Woodruff, Co. K, wounded June 2, died June 11.

In the operations around Petersburg in the fall of 1864 and spring of 1865 the Fifth Corps performed important service. On the 18th of August they moved to the left and captured the Weldon Railroad at the Yellow House, and in the afternoon advanced a skirmish line toward Petersburg. The 147th lost several in killed and wounded. The lines were slowly contracting around the doomed city, and in September another feint was made across the James River, and the Fifth Corps made an attack on the enemy's line, capturing two forts recently built. About the last of October the Second, Fifth and Ninth Corps advanced three miles to the left to get possession of the Southside Railroad, the last line of communication leading to Petersburg, excepting the road connecting Petersburg with Richmond. Here occurred a battle in which the 147th was actively engaged and suffered the great loss by capture of Lieutenant-Colonel Harney. By his prompt and efficient action he had saved the regiment in an emergency from capture, and doubtless from great loss, and it was not known whether he was killed or cap- tured, until his appearance after the surrender of Lee. In December the Fifth Corps was ordered on an extensive raid to the North Caro- lina line to destroy the Weldon Railroad. Twenty-five miles of this road were destroyed.

Upon the return of the regiment they went into winter quarters, and little was done except to strengthen the lines, until February 6, 1865.

On the morning af March 29, 1865, the Fifth Corps broke camp for its last campaign. It was joined with Sheridan's command. Near sunset of the first day the enemy was encountered by the Fifth Corps and a sharp engagement followed. The 147th had, on February 6, lost its field and staff officers and the command was given to Colonel Daily. In a drenching rain which continued till the 3Ist, the Fifth Corps endeavored to get possession of the White Oak road and join its left with Sheridan's cavalry. On the morning of the 3 Ist the enemy massed heavily in front of the corps and made a furious attack, in which the loss of the 147 was severe. On the night of the 3Ist two divisions of the Fifth Corps advanced to join Sheridan, but the whole corps did not get into position until 4 P. M., by which hour the enemy had partially fallen back. The corps was formed to swing around and in- tercept the enemy's retreat, which it did and captured about 5,000 prison- ers. The Confederates were hotly pursued and their general demoraliza- tion quickly followed. After the battle of Five Forks the pursuit was continued, and no rest was given the retreating enemy until Appo- mattox was reached. On the night of April 2 Lee evacuated Rich- mond and the Confederacy fell. The Fifth Corps, now under command of General Griffin, pursued the right flank, with the Second Corps in the immediete rear. The pursuit continued through the 8th and until the morning of the 9th, when the Fifth Corps cut off further retreat of the enemy at Appomattox. Here, hemmed in on three sides, with the gallant Fifth Corps in front, the whole rebel army in full view, Lee made overtures for the surrender which followed.

The remainder of the history of this gallant regiment is soon told.

THE ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-SEVENTH REGIMENT. 199

They marched by easy stages to Richmond, and thence in May to the southern defenses of Washington. On its way from Appomattox Court House the regiment was joined by Lieutenant-Colonel Harney, Colonel Miller and Adjutant Lyman, who had been liberated from rebel prisons. The regiment was mustered out June 7. 1865, and started for home the next day, reaching Oswego on the 7th of July, having remained some days in Syracuse. Out of the 837 enlisted men who left Oswego September 27, 1862, only 147 returned, and several of these were crippled. The ranks of the regiment had been several times filled during its term of service, and what were left of these recruits were transferred to other regiments. Nearly 2,300 names were on the entire muster rolls of the regiment.
