COMPLETE ROSTER OF THE THIRTY- FOURTH REGIMENT


T HE comrades will understand that the dates of enlistment given in the following roster may not be the dates when they actually enlisted. The dates of enlistment here given are the dates of muster into the state service. For instance, Captain Baldwin, of Com- panv E, put his own name down April 17, 1861, and other men followed him during each day thereafter ; but not until May 18 was the company mustered into the state service. This ceremony was performed by Col- onel George S. Ellas, of Bath, and all the men that day mustered would find Mav 18 to be the dates of their enlistment, which was officially, but not technically correct. The same is true in regard to every other company named in the roster. We make this statement because very many of the comrades are justly proud of having been very prompt and early in their enlistments, and the dates given below do not do them justice. Likewise in regard to the ages given in these lists. The age limit at which a soldier could be received into the service was 18 years. Therefore the State honors its enactments by making it appear that no man was received under that age; whereas there can be no doubt that many of the Thirty-fourth boys were considerably under that figure. For example, Solon S. Pickert, of Company K, was but 14 years old when he enlisted, as his wife writes us; and yet we find the age given in the Albany records as 19. And so with many other com- rades, no doubt. Mrs. Pickert writes us that Solon enlisted in August. 1861, and yet the records state October 18, which may have been the date of his muster. She adds that "she had often heard him tell how. at Albany, at the time of muster, he was at the foot of the line, and the mustering officer spoke to him, and said, 'you are a pretty soldier : you had better be at home with your mother ;' whereupon the Captain spoke up and said, 'He is my boy ; I will take care of him ;' so the mus- tering officer passed on. Solon was very much afraid he would be sent home." But the boy Solon seems not to have had enough of soldier life with the Thirty-fourth, for in August, 1863, following our mus- ter out, he re-enlisted in the Sixteenth Artillery, and stayed in till the war was over. We mention these details because the case is a typical one. There were plenty of these boys in the service, and they could hold a gun as steady, and fire as straight, as the older men. In fact. the boys saved the country. How many times, in the course of this history, we have wished we could trace the steps of every individual boy and man, and tell the simple story of his experience from the time he entered the service, not simply until he vanished from our sight, at the muster out, but onward until, as in so many other cases, he parted from his wife, his children and his friends, at the river's brink. Each individual life is a separate history ; but it can never be written.

HISTORY OF THE THIRTY-FOURTH REGIMENT


How have they scattered over the face of the earth, these soldier boys. And wherever they may be, they are still fighting the course that to all of us is a battle.


Then there are the deserters; what shall we say about them? In some respects their cases are the most pathetic of all. For by their conduct they expatriated themselves from the country that was won, and justly belongs, only to the brave and the true. Yet many of these men left their regiment after they had fought in some of the battles, and served in many hardships, as bravely and well as any others. And what can we say when we find that some of these men re-enlisted in other regiments, in which they served their country well, and to-day are receiving pensions on account of honorable wounds? Many times it was homesickness drove these men away. They longed for home, and for a time forgot their duty and their honor, and were recreant to both. Then when they had gone away, they repented, and wanted to return, but thought they would be punished if they did; and so drifted to other regiments. We wish it were possible to go through these lists and strike out the hated word "deserter" from the record of every man who really does not deserve it. But our information is too limited, and makes such a task impossible. Therefore, we shall have to let the records stand as they are. We wish no part or lot in perpetuating the punishment of these men.


In spite of the fact that much has been done to purify these lists, we know that they still contain a great many errors. We have sub- mitted them to quite a number of the old officers, and have tried very hard, by correspondence and otherwise, to winnow out the mistakes ; but though we have removed scores of them, scores of others still remain. We are sorry this is so; but it has seemed impossible to remove them all. The comrades, therefore, who may find errors in their records, will have to be indulgent. The department at Albany spells some comrades' names three and four different ways. And there are other errors still more important. The lists, such as they are, are respectfully submitted.


Some of the companies in the Thirty-fourth were organized first under the old militia regulation, requiring but 33 men in a company. This explains why, for instance, the Little Falls companies left for Albany when they were still so small. But afterward, at Albany, all the companies that lacked had to be recruited up to the new standard of 77 men each. Afterward the new regiments used to come south 1010 men strong. This was because of a still later regulation requir- ing each company to contain 10I men.
