"Concerning the formation of my brig- ade for that final assault on the 2d of April, I formed in column of regiments, each regi- ment in line of battle, six regiments deep, with one in reserve, the whole preceded by a company of pioneers to clear away the abatis. Two regiments, the 7th and 11th N. Y., were left to hold our main line in case of repulse. I made the formation thus because I knew the head of the column would be swept away by the enemy's terrific fire, and I must have lines enough till one complete in its formation could reach and pass the enemy's lines and hold them. My records are still at Keene, and I can only give you the relative positions of the regi- ments in the column from memory, which may not be wholly accurate. My recollec- tion is that they stood thus: The 31st Maine, 179th New York, 17th Vermont, 2d Indiana, 186th New York, 6th New Hampshire, with the 56th Massachusetts in reserve. The column was not repulsed or driven back at all, although a great many were panic stricken, and fled to the rear.

The column was not moved as a unit. Tbe regiments in column preceding the 186th were first ordered forward, but they never reached the enemy's works. In relation to them it should be said that the 31st Maine, the 17th Vermont, and the 2d Maryland were mere skeletons of regiments. their numbers having been wasted by long and arduous service. The 179th had fuller ranks, having been more recently recruited. That it suffered seriously is well known. Its gallant Lieut .- Col. Daily was mortally wounded, and its Col. Gregg received a severe wound in the head. These troops, panie stricken, rushed back, trampling upon our boys as they were quietly resting on the ground. But the panic was not contagious enough to extend to them. And now came the decisive moment. A staff officer from the brigade staff, Capt. Goodwin, if I re- member his name correctly, a brave and faithful officer, whom we all remember from the sobriquet given him of "Old Corduroy " because he wore corduroy pants, canie to me and said: "The General directs you now to advance," and as the last word fell from his lips, he extended his hand, and

with evident emotion said: "It will be hot. God bless you !" Turning then to the duty in hand, the order was given: " Attention, battalion !" Instantly the men were in place. Then followed: "Shoul- der arms ! Forward, guide centre. March !" And forward it was. First our own rifle-pit was reached, and behind the embankment, crouched and cowed, were a large number of our own troops. Steadily, and in as good order as possible, the line went over the embankment, and then across the inter- val of 20 rods between outposts, then over the rebel rifle pits. Meantime the fire from Fort Sedgewick was redoubled, the hissing shot and shell passing above so as to strike the works of the enemy, doubtless to lessen the fire of his batteries and drive his infantry from the top of the works, and so prevent their fire. Nevertheless, we had to face a leaden storm. Here and there along the line some noble fellow dropped from his place, and here and there the cry of anguish could be heard from the brave fellows who had been wounded. The abatis is reached. The brave pioneers, who, under cover of the darkness, had sought to remove it, had only made an opening wide enough to admit the passage of a company front. The right company passed through the opening and perhaps the second right company. The advance of the right was checked to give the remainder a little time to surmount the obstruction. This was quickly accomplished; then the order was given : "Charge bayo- nets! Double quick time, march!" and with a rush accompanied by a wild yell, our men soon reached the enemy's works. There was no resistance to the onslaught. As we approched the foot of the parapet the enemy, in a crowd, rushed out towards us, calling out: " We surrender! We surrender !"

And now an incident occurred that is worthy of mention. Among the enemy was a large, bushy-headed man, with long, heavy whiskers. He seemed to tower above his comrades, and as he rushed down the parapet towards us, he threw up his arms, and in a loud, hypocritical voice, exclaimed: " I thank God I am once more under the stars and stripes." His hypocrisy was ap- parent, so it seemed to the brave Capt. J. P. Legg, who instantly responded in language more emphatic than graceful, and seizing the man by the shoulder he gave him a kick that greatly accelerated his passage to the rear. Standing for a moment upon the high parapet, and looking down into the fort, the scene was most impressive. The blue-coated boys were swarming in. There were the great guns, and a little distance from each a charcoal fire, where had been heated the iron rods that were applied to the priming powder when the guns were dis- charged. While thus standing. looking upon this scene, a large shell dropped down within the fort, and sinking into the earth, exploded. Uprose a great column of smoke, dust and earth, and when it had reached a

certain height it spread over like an um- brella, the debris covering everything about. It looked like the pictures we often see of a volcano in a state of eruption. Fortunately, no one was hurt. The capture of the fort was a great victory, which our gallant fellows appreciated, and made their joy manifest in ringing cheers.

But remembering that the order was to advance, the regiment was quickly re- formed in rear of the captured fort, and commenced marching towards the city of Petersburg, which seemed some little dis- tance away across a comparatively level space. Its steeples and roofs were plainly visible. Directly an order was received to change direction to the left and halt-with the information that we were in danger of being flanked. After the changed direction the fire in our front was giving us trouble, and to avoid its effect a lie-down was again ordered, and even while in this position men were killed and wounded. Again, we were ordered forward, but had proceeded only a little distance when we found a strong work, which the enemy still occupied. At the point of approach was a deep ditch, filled with water, too wide to be crossed without scaling-ladders, or other appliances that we did not possess. Passing a little to the right, in search of some opening to enable us to effect an entrance, my own active career with you, comrades, in the field, suddenly terminated. What I may further say as to your subsequent doings will be from hear- say

Much has been said of the achievements of the second brigade on this memorable 2d of April. Great praise of its gallant conduct has been awarded in the public prints and in army records, but it has seemed to me that the credit to which the respective organizations composing the brigade are entitled has been quite lost sight of. Readily will it occur to you, my comrades, that if the 186th regiment had not been there but little would have been accomplished. Indeed, but for it, at the point of attack, the enemy's line would have remained un- broken. So far as to results accomplished, the 186th regiment was the second brigade. Considering the actual and reported strength of Fort Mahone. the perils and difficulties to be encountered, its assault and capture by the 186th regiment was a magnificent success. Tennyson has immortalized the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava upon a Russian battery :

" Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Volleyed and thundered; Into the jaws of death, Into the month of hell, Rode the six hundred,"

On the occasion of which I speak you had cannon in front of you, cannon to the right of you and cannon to the left of you, that volleyed and thundered. A military critic who knew of the blunder that was made

THE GROWTH OF A CENTURY.

when the charge of the Light Brigade was ordered, and who witnessed the heroic sacri- fices, said of the charge: "It is magnificent, but it is not war." No less praise is due for your conduct in the charge you made, with this distinction: It was magnificent, and it was war - the object being one of possible attainment, and the resulting victory was the test.

During the night succeeding the battle of Petersburg, its remaining defenses, which so long kept the Union troops at bay. were evacuated, and the second brigade, with other troops, when morning came entered the city. You continued the pursuit of the retreating eneniy as far as Burkesville, some sixty miles. But Appomattox, near by, was the closing scene of the bloody drama in which the Army of the Potomac and that of Northern Virginia had played leading parts. After a brief period you marched back to

Petersburg, thence to City Point, thence by transport to Alexandria. Here you rested for a few days, when the order for your muster- out was received and your discharges made June 2, 1865. You marched in the grand re- view with the victorious troops of Meade's army and of the army of General Sherman. Thence you came by rail to New York, thence by steamer to Albany and by rail to Watertown. Your proud record and heroic deeds had preceded you. On your arrival the citizens came out to welcome you: speeches of welcome by our leading citizens were made; a bountiful banquet was spread in Washington Hall. Continuing on to Madison Barracks, after a few days, your honorable discharges were delivered, and the 186th regiment became history, and you who comprised it were once more citizens in the land your patriotism and valor had done much to save and redeem.

THE IOTH NEW YORK HEAVY ARTILLERY.

The organization of the artillery of an army, and especially in the old army of the United States, has been almost invariably by independent batteries. Such form of organization has always proved the most effective, because, being a small force, with four to six guns, and perhaps 100 men, it could be quickly moved, easily handled, and so small as to be readily governed and trained to quick movements - often by a hasty concentration at a given point, changing the fate of battle. It was the artillery that saved the day at Gettysburg by nearly decimating Pickett's division before it had reached the first Union line, over which it might have poured but for the heroic work done by the artillery. In each ' division and corps there are chiefs of artil- lery, who have control of these separate batteries, which they can concentrate, as at Gettysburg, upon a definite line, giving confidence to the infantry with whom they serve.

This much is necessary to explain what follows. There had been sent out from this county, in the spring of 1862. two such bat- teries as we have above described, known as batteries " C" and "H," the former com- manded by Capt. Joseph Spratt, a well- known Watertown boy. and the latter by Captain Barnes. These batteries proved efficient, serving in the Peninsula under McClellan, where Captain Spratt was seriously wounded. They formed a part of what was known as Bailey's 1st regiment New York artillery. These batteries had done so well that a movement was made to raise in Jefferson county, ten or more com- panies, or independent batteries, which should be concentrated and operated as one regiment. Enlistments were made with that understanding, the men believing that

their duty would be confined to guarding the many forts which environed Washing- ton on the south, east and west. Officers from batteries "C" and " H," which had done good work before Richmond, were designated to fill the important positions in the new organization at Madison Bar- racks.

It ought to be stated that before many enlistments had been made for the purpose described above, Capt. E. P. Webb had en- listed some 50 men for an independent battery, and was directed to bring his men to Sackets Harbor, and himself to instruct and send out recruiting parties. This was done, and his small detachment formed the nucleus around which there soon congre- gated 16 companies, aggregating nearly 2,300 men. Thus originated what was known afterwards as the famous 10th N. Y. Heavy Artillery.

It was natural to expect that so large a force, devoted to a single arm of the service, became an embarrassment to the officials at Washington, who wanted batteries, not regiments of artillery. To make a long story short, while the regimental officers wanted to retain their regimental organiza- tion as heavy artillery, for which they had been enlisted, the government finally con- sented to their remaining enrolled as such, but required them to serve as infantry, in which capacity they behaved nobly.

We can only give a brief sketch of the company histories :

COMPANY A.

Capt. Edward P. Webb's Co. " A." This company was recruited at Watertown, N. Y., early in July, 1862, composed of men from that place, Lewis and Oneida counties. The company rapidly filled to the maximum,

many being transferred to other companies of the regiment. About fifty men were en- listed for this company when they were transferred to Madison Barracks, Sackets Harbor. and were mustered with their original battalion into the United States service, September 11, 1862; on September 18 the company advanced with the hat- talions 1 and 2, as then numbered, to New York city, Capt. Webb in command of the battalions; here the battalions were equipped for the field. Leaving New York, it arrived with the battalions at Camp Barry, in the department of Washington, D. C., on the 23d of September, 1862, laying in camp until September 29th, when, with the bat- talions, it was transferred to the fortifica- tions near the city, remaining there until the regiment was ordered on active duty, March 27, 1864, in command of Lieut. E. H. Toby. The company was never commanded by Capt. Webb, he being in command of the battalions, headquarters at Fort Baker, until May 15. 1863.

Edward P. Webb, captain, Watertown; Elijah H. Toby, 1st lieutenant, Watertown; Leeman A. Rising, 1st lieutenant, Water- town; Morris A. Reed, 2nd lieutenant, Watertown; Addison W. Wheelock, 2nd lieutenant, Watertown.

COMPANY B.

Capt Giles F. Kitts' Co. " B." This com- pany was recruited from Adams, Rodman, and Lorraine, rendezvoused with the bat- talion at Madison Barracks, and mustered with them into U. S. service on the 11th of September, 1862. This company is entitled to, and claims the banner, being the only company mustering its complement of men, all being present. The company was origi- nally "I" of 1st Battalion, subsequently becoming "B" of 10th regiment, served with that regiment in the army of the Potomac until mustered out, June 23d, 1865.

Giles F. Kitts, captain, Rodman ; F. O. Sherman, 1st lientenant, Adams: E. H. Smith, 1st lieutenant, Adams; Chas. B. Spear, 2d lieutenant, Rodman; Daniel Ran- ney, 2d lieutenant, Adams.

COMPANY C.

Capt. C. C. Abell's Co, "C." This com- pany was recruited principally from the towns of Antwerp, Philadelphia and LeRay. It was mustered in at Sackets Harbor, Sept. 11, 1862, as company "C" of the 2d bat- talion, Black River Artillery, subsequently becoming "C" company of the 10th regi- ment. It marched with its battalion from Sackets Harbor, Sept. 18, and occupied the fortifications in the department of Wash- ington until the regiment was ordered into active service, March 27, 1864, and subse- quently was in the engagements in front of Petersburg and Bermuda. It was mustered out June 23, 1865, with the regiment.

C. C. Abell, captain, Antwerp; Alexander Kennedy, 1st lieutenant, Evans Mills; Tim- othy A. Ackerman, 1st lieutenant, Philadel- phia; Wm. M. Comstock, 2d lieutenant, Evans Mills; Eugene Miller, 3d lieutenant, Antwerp.

Col. Charles C. Abell went out as captain of Co. C., 10th N. Y. heavy artillery. Served with his company and regiment until June 1864, when he was detailed as inspector of artillery for the 18th corps, commanded by the distinguished " Baldy " Smith. After serving as inspector for four months, he was promoted to be chief of artillery for the same corps. The 18th corps and the 10th each had colored troops and white troops intermingled. By putting all the colored troops of each corps under one command, they became the 25th corps, and the white troops were designated as the 24th - and Col. Abell remained with the 24th as chief of artillery. He served through with that corps nntil Appo- mattox, and was honorably mustered out with his regiment in September, 1865, after being relieved from duty with the 24th corps.

Col. Abell soon made Chicago his home. where he remained eighteen years, then he was two years in Mexico, and since then he has resided in Denver and Omaha, cashier of the Omaha Packing Company, an hon- ored citizen, one whom it is great pleasure to meet and "fight one's battles o'er again."

COMPANY D. .

Capt. S. R. Cowles' Co. " D." Originally mustered as " B," 1st battalion, at Sackets Harbor, Sept. 11, 1862, was recruited in Champion, Croghan, Diana, Rutland and Wilna, subsequently being numbered with 4th battalion; served with the regiment in the campaign of the James, with distinction, Captain Cowles being commanding officer of the battalion in its charge on the rebel works on April 2, 1865.

army. This company rendered service in the department of Washington, advancing to the front with its regiment, March, 1864 ; was engaged in the siege of Petersburg and battle of Bermuda Hundred, retiring from the service with a record second to none; mustering out with the regiment, June 23, 1865, and discharged at Sackets Harbor, N. Y. At Cold Harbor the captain narrowly escaped. The enemy charged on our lines, and one of the men in his fright held his thumb over the muzzle of his piece, stooped down and with the other hand fired his gun. Either the thumb or the ball passed through the captain's hat. sadly marring that appendage.

H. O. Gilmore, captain ; R. R. Bell, 1st lieutenant; P. B. Grant, 2d lieutenant.

COMPANY K.

Capt. B. B. Taggart's Co. "K" was re- cruited in Adams, Antwerp, Brownville, Osceola, LeRay, Houndsfield, Watertown, Worth, Clayton, Rutland and Orleans; originally mustered as Co.

B. B. Taggart, captain; Fred Lansing, 1st lieutenant.

COMPANY L.

Capt. Jas. E. Green's Co. " L," Tenth N. Y. Heavy Artillery, was raised mostly in Ellisburgh, Henderson and Lyme. James E. Green, M. A. Hackley and C. E. Seaton were the parties who were the most effec- tive in getting the enlistments of men. Capt. Gould had some men whom had en- listed in the northern part of the county, mostly from Lyme. The command gath- ered at Sackets Harbor about the middle of September, 1862, which place they left about the 19th of September, and arrived in New York on the 20th. Under the com. mand of Captain Gould; after one night spent at Park Barracks, they were sent to Camp Arthur, Staten Island. Up to this time none of the men had been mustered into the U. S. service. About this time dif- ferences of opinion arose between Gould, Green and others, as to who should be the company's officers, the finale of which was that Capt. Gould was ordered to turn his men over to J. E. Green. The men were nearly mutinous, and refused to be mus- tered, but they were ordered in line at the camp, and marched on board a steamer, and conveyed to Fort Schuyler, where they were mustered.

James E. Green, captain; O. Williams, 1st lieutenant; C. E. Seaton, 2d lieutenant.

THE WAR FOR THE UNION.

COMPANY M.

Capt. J. B. Campbell's company was originally mustered as " C." of 3d battalion; were enlisted at Ellisburgh, Henderson, Adams, Watertown, Lyme, Cape Vincent and Houndsfield; was mustered September 11, 1862, by W. D. Edgerton, 11th U. S. In- fantry; served in the department of Wash- ington: advanced with their regiment in 1864, took part in the siege of Petersburg and the battle of Bermuda Hundred; was then commanded by J. C. Armstrong, cap- tain; was mustered out with the regiment June 23, 1865. Losing heavily in the cam- paign of the James and Shenandoah Valley, its ranks were badly depleted on its final discharge at Sackets Harbor.

J. B. Campbell, captain; J. C. Armstrong, 1st lieutenant; R. B. Brown, 1st lieutenant; John M. Wilcox, 2d lieutenant; Philip Riley, 2d lientenant.

This regiment saw important service, and made an honorable record, as did all the Jefferson county troops. We have not space to follow in detail its many movements and engagements. It performed, with credit, every duty imposed upon it, its ranks were filled with a fine body of men, and its ser- vices appreciated by the people.
