until the 29th. Our destination was Port Royal Harbor, S. C., which we reached safely but did not disembark until February 10th, when we landed on St. Helena's Island and went into camp. There we remained drilling and fitting ourselves for active field service while the gunboat fleets were. making their preparations to attack Charleston by water. Finally about April Ist everything was declared to be in readiness, and on the 5th the troops again embarked and proceeded to Edisto, (near Charleston Harbor) and awaited orders to land. In the meantime the gunboat fleet had made the attack upon the rebel forts but met a disas- trous defeat, and the land attack was not made, and we returned to Beaufort Harbor. In a few days the Ninety- eighth was ordered to Newbern, N. C., to guard the rail- road running from Newbern to Morehead. We were sta- tioned by companies along the road and remained there during the summer of 1863, until October Ist, when we were ordered to Newport News, Va. In the meantime Lieutenant Colonel Mead had been promoted Colonel, and Captain Kreutzer acted as Lieutenant-Colonel, Sergeants Wells, Booth, Harris, and Anjevine of Wayne county had received Lieutenant's commisssions. Colonel Mead enforced the most rigid discipline and the regiment was now in splendid condition and ready for anything that might "turn up." About the middle of October the regiment was ordered to Peenzo, Princess Anna County, and established a camp near the North Landing River, where we fought guer- rillas and raided through the country after marauding bands of bush-whackers, until February, 1864, when we were relieved, and the whole regiment re-enlisted and went home on a veteran furlough. Returning to Yorktown in April, with large accessions to its strength, the Ninety-eighth was one of the best disciplined and equipped regiments in the Eighteenth Corps. The Eighteenth and Tenth Corps were placed under command of General Butler and called "the Army of the James," and when the Army of the Potomac under General Grant advanced, Butler's command ascended the James River in transports and landed at Bermuda Hun- dreds. On the 9th of May, the battle of Swift Creek was
563

fought in which the Ninety-eighth participated. On the 16th the sanguary battle of Drury's Bluff was fought. At this battle the Ninety-eighth was temporarily attached to Hick- man's famous " fighting brigade." A dense fog enveloped the whole army, and the rebels taking advantage of this, attacked Hickman's right flank and captured Hickman, his staff, and four of his regiments, one after the other. When they reached the Ninety-eighth, Colonel Mead changed the front of his regiment to rear with the coolness and precision of a battalion drill, and the Nine- ty-eighth delivered volley after volley in the face of the astonished Johnnies, who were thrown into confusion by this unexpected resistance. General Smith now ordered the Ninety-eighth to fall back about half a mile, which it did in good order, and with the Ninth New Jersey, and Twenty- first Connecticut, formed a new line of battle. The enemy pursued and attacked us in this new position, but met with a bloody repulse, and after holding the line until nearly night, Butler withdrew his forces and fell back behind his entrench- ments at Bermuda. On the 28th of May, the Eighteenth Corps was sent to re-enforce Grant, and joined the army of the Potomac at Cold Harbor on the Ist of June, where the Ninety-eighth participated in all the terrible charges and sorties of that bloody field. During our operations there the Ninety-eighth lost some of its best officers and enlisted men. Among the former were Colonel Mead and Captain L. A. Rogers, two as brave men as ever buckled on a sword. Among the latter were Sergeant Samuel Sherman, of South Sodus and Corporal Lee Lounsberry, of Marion. The entire loss of the Ninety-eighth in killed and wounded and prison- ers in the battles of Drury's Bluff and Cold Harbor, amounted to two hundred and thirty men. The command of the regiment now developed upon Captain Kreutzer, he being the senior officer in the regiment.
On the 12th of June the Eighteenth Corps again embarked upon transports and ascended the James river, landing at Bermuda. On the night of the 14th, this corps crossed the Appomattox at Point of Rocks, and on the 15th, assaulted and carried the rebel works on the heights south of Peters-

burg. On the 16th, the Army of the Potomac also crossed the Appomattox, and after four days' fighting Grant aban- doned the attempt to take Petersburg, and erected a strong line of works, connecting with the line built in May by Gen- eral Butler, between the James and Appomattox rivers. The lines were in unpleasant proximity, and the " Johnnies" amused themselves by stealing slyly up and capturing our pickets during the darkness of night. On the morning of the 24th of June they made an attempt to capture the whole of the Ninety-eighth who were on the vidette line. They succeeded in capturing about thirty of the regiment, among them Sergeant Henry Lyon, of Marion, who came to the writer just before we parted for the night to take our posi- tions in the "gopher holes" of the vidette line, and said, " Good-bye! I shall never see you again-something will happen to me to-night; I have felt it all day." Lyon was carried to Andersonville, and died in that horrid pen. The Ninety-eighth remained in the trenches of Petersburg, liter_ ally fighting night and day, until the 29th of August, when we re-crossed the Appomattox and occupied a position on the old line between the two rivers. While here Captain Kreutzer was promoted Colonel, Captain W. H. Rogers was promoted Major, and the writer received a First Lieutenant's commission. The regiment also received about two hun- dred new recruits while lying here. On the night of the 28th of September, the Eighteenth Corps crossed to the north side of the James river. and on the morning of the 29th, we assaulted and carried Fort Harrison on Chapin's Farm, capturing three hundred men and twenty-two guns. While marching in the night previous to the attack, Colonel Kreutzer was thrown from his horse and compelled to go back to camp, and the command of the regiment devolved upon Major Rogers. Early in the fight Major Rogers was slightly wounded, and Captain Lewis, of Malone, took the command and retained it through the battle. The Ninety- eighth lost in killed and wounded sixty-one men. Among the killed were Sergeant Pulver, of Sodus Centre, and pri- vates Sahler and Nebore, of Lyons. We spent the night of the 29th and a portion of the following day in entrenching,
56

expecting of course that the enemy would attempt to retake the works. Nor were we disappointed. On the afternoon of the 30th the enemy commenced throwing shells from a battery of twelve pounders, and at four o'clock the first attempt was made, which was easily repulsed. Half an hour later came the second charge, with a much heavier force. Our men were ordered to hold their fire until the word was given, and not a musket was discharged until the first line were within fifteen rods of us, when the command " Fire !" was given. At the first volley the front line of the enemy was broken and destroyed, the second line wavered, but again came on, the third line dashing after them in splendid style. But flesh and blood could not stand the withering fire that was poured upon them by our boys, and those of the enemy who were not killed or wounded threw down their arms and came into our lines. No further attempt was made to retake the works. On the 27th of October the second battle of Fair Oaks was fought, in which the Ninety- eighth took part. On the 2d of November the regiment was sent North to guard the polls during election, and pro- ceeded to Troy, N. Y., where it remained a week and then returned to its old quarters at Fort Harrison. It remained here during the winter of 1864-'65, doing picket duty until the morning of the 3d of April, 1865. On the night of the 2d, Richmond was evacuated, and at daylight on the morn- ing of the 3d we left our camp, took the " double-quick " for Richmond, which we found in flames (fired by General Ewell), and for the next three days we had plenty to do in subduing the fire and bringing order out of chaos. The city was divided into three districts and Colonel Kreutzer was detailed as Provost Marshal over one district. We remained here until about the middle of May, when we were ordered to Danville, where a military district was formed, and Major W. H. Rogers assigned to duty as Commandant of the Post. Our duty here was to preserve order, and feed the destitute to whom nearly three thousand rations were issued weekly. We remained here until the 20th of August, when we were ordered to Richmond to be mustered out of service, which was done August 31, 1865. On the Ist of
566

September, the regiment embarked on the James river and bade farewell to the scenes of the past four years. There were only about four hundred men left of the one thousand eight hundred that had, since the first muster of the regi- ment, become members of the organization. It had been filled up twice by recruits, but a large number had been dis- abled by wounds and sickness, the bones of many more were bleaching on the different battle-fields, and many had died in the prison-pens of Andersonville, Ga., Richmond, Va., and Columbia, S. C. We arrived at Baltimore on the 2d, and boarded the cars for New York, which place we reached the following day, and proceeded by boat to Albany, where we received our final pay and discharge.
The disbanding of this gallant regiment was an event of such interest, recalling a history of such patriotic memories, that Colonel Kreutzer very appropriately "improved " the occasion by issuing the following address :
HEADQUARTERS NINETY-EIGHTH N. Y. S. V., ALBANY, N. Y., September 15th, 1865. 1
FELLOW SOLDIERS :- You are returning from a war which has shaken the commercial and industrial interest of the world. Your marches, toils and battles have been crowned with success. In all the rebellious States the Constitution and the laws are supreme.
Your friends and relatives in their quiet homes will rejoice to receive you, glorious survivors of so many dangers and victories, in the same degree that we are sad upon separa- tion and the severing of ties which have united us in our country's darkest hour and grown stronger in battle and vic- tory, in the overthrow and dispersion of our enemies and the final triumph of our cause.
The battles in which you have been engaged shall live forever in your country's annals. On the mountains, in the valleys, on the rivers, the plains, the lakes, and in the towns and cities, the narration of your sufferings, toils and victo- ries, shall elicit in all coming time the warmest commenda- tion of posterity.
How intense the happiness of that soldier who returns from this war safely to his home conscious of having left no duty unperformed. Joy brightens his cheeks and quickens his footsteps, and all who love their country, its benign and free institutions, extend their hands to receive him and lavish blessings upon him.
567
MILITARY HISTORY OF WAYNE COUNTY.
To those of our comrades who have died in the line of duty, no tribute can be too great, no honors too flattering. Though left cold and unburied on the battle-field, though blanched by the rains and winds of heaven, or though un- marked and unknown, they smoulder in the trenches around Petersburg and Richmond, our free and united country is their monument, and history shall wreathe their names with everlasting laurels.
You, who have periled your lives for the integrity of the nation -- you are citizens again. Your duties are still great and your responsibilities tremendous. The voices of your comrades, living and dead, call upon you to be socially and politically true in heart and head. Society needs every- where brave, earnest and truthful men, and such men every- where succeed.
This is an age of reform and its spirit is progressive. Cher- ish the good and combat the evil.
For the present your military career is ended. Go home and work, and vote, and pray. W. KREUTZER,
Colonel 98th N. Y. S. V.
In the newspapers of October, 1865, we find the following article, embodying an interesting letter from Colonel Kreutzer :
THE BANNER OF THE NINETY-EIGHTH.
It will be remembered that when the Ninety-eighth Regi- ment (the re-enlisted portion) came home on furlough, in March, 1864, a handsome banner was presented to it at the Court House. The banner was prepared for the regiment two years before, and intended to be presented upon the occasion of their departure with Colonel Dutton in com- mand ; but the presentation was deferred for reasons not now remembered. The presentation was made by Misses Cramer and Holley, on behalf of the ladies of this village, and the banner was received by Major Rogers, on behalf of the regiment. Colonel Kreutzer now returns the banner to the ladies, with the following note :
HEADQUARTERS, NINETY-EIGHTH N. Y. VOLUNTEERS, 1
ALBANY, September 15, 1865. 1 To Misses Holley, Cramer, and others, ladies of Lyons :
I have the honor to return to you, by the hands of Lieu- tenant-Colonel William H. Rogers, on behalf of the Ninety- eighth New York Volunteers, the banner which you pre- pared for us in 1862, when at the call of our President, we
568
MILITARY HISTORY OF WAYNE COUNTY.
set out to fight for the integrity of our country and its free institutions. We have flung it proudly to the breeze in front of the enemy's lines, and never suffered it to be disgraced or dishonored. We were happy to receive it, and bear it a pledge of your encouragement and support,-the sign of hope and triumph; and now, by the blessing of God, the enemies of our country having been vanquished, and the Constitution and the laws again established and made supreme, we, coming home from the war, return the beautiful gift to those who gave it. As in the tented field, this ban- ner of our native State often reminded us of our distant homes, our former free and happy country, and the patriotic devotion of the noble women who gave it to us, so hereafter may it recall to the minds of those who shall gaze upon it, the scenes through which it has passed, the occasion upon which it was presented, and the fidelity, courage and patri- otism of those who bore it in the battles around Petersburg and Richmond. I respectfully suggest for your favorable consideration, the propriety of depositing the banner with Colonel Lockwood I. Doty, Chief of the Bureau of Military Statistics at Albany.
I am very respectfully, your obedient servent,
W. KREUTZER,
October 12, 1865. Colonel Ninety-eighth N. Y. Vols.
Colonel Kreutzer had the good fortune to win the approval of the best citizens of Richmond, during his official relations with them as Provost Marshal of the Second District. The Richmond Commercial Bulletin pub- lished the following handsome notice at the term of his retirement :
" This change will deprive us of the services of Lieutenant- Colonel Kreutzer, the efficient, honorable and courteous Provost Marshal, of the Second District ; and we are sure that every citizen who has witnessed the impartial justice which he has dispensed to all who have claimed it at his hands, and the courtesy, firmness and ability which have characterized the discharge of the onerous, complicated and delicate duties of his position, will unite with us in regret- ting his departure, and we think we hazard nothing in say- ing that while he has made personal friends among us by the score, his foes could be summed up in ciphers, and that wherever he may go he will bear with him the best wishes of our best citizens."
The annual report of the Adjutant-General for 1868 sums up the most important facts relating to every
569
MILITARY HISTORY OF WAYNE COUNTY.
regiment from this State; and records officially the battles which the regiment was entitled to have inscribed upon its banners.
Of the Ninety-eighth Regiment of Infantry, the report says :
" It was organized at Malone and at Lyons, to serve for three years. The companies of which it was composed were raised in the counties of Franklin and Wayne. It was mustered into the service of the United States from January 25th to February 8th, 1862. On the expiration of its term of service, the original members (except veterans) were mustered out and the regiment composed of veterans and recruits retained in service until August 31st, 1865 when it was mustered out in accordance with orders from the War Department."
The report also gives the battles in which the regiment was engaged as those of Seven Pines ; White Oak Swamp ; Drury's Bluff ; Gaines' Mills ; Petersburgh ; Cold Harbor ; Chapin's Farm and Fort Darling.
The official method of assigning honors to various regi- ments seems to be unnecessarily rigid. Doubtless the above list should comprise many more battles and skirmishes.
