This company was mustered into service as Company D of the 3rd Ohio Regiment, com- manded by Col. Samuel R. Curtis, and in the month of July sailed to Pt. Isabel opposite Brazos Island near the mouth of the Rio Grande and was placed on duty at Fort Brown.
On the 3rd of May, a battery at Matamoras opened a heavy cannonading upon the fort, and in the engagement that followed the com- mander of the fort was killed.
At the conclusion of the term of service of Capt. Patterson's company, the citizens of St. Clairsville extended the members a royal wel- come home on July 22, 1847. It was a gala day for the town and the whole surrounding country.
A REMARKABLE MILITARY CAREER.
At the outbreak of the Mexican War, Col. J. F. Charlesworth of St. Clairsville was a youth attending school at Granville, when a lieutenant in the United States service came to that place upon recruiting duty, and this patri- otic young man in company with a number of schoolmates ran off from school and although not of legal age sought admission into the ranks at New Orleans. This was refused until the consent of the parents was obtained by tele- graph when Colonel Charlesworth enlisted and remained in the service until the close of the war.
Colonel Charlesworth has had a remarkable military career. While serving under Scott in Mexico he was slightly wounded at Contreras, but continued in the service until the conclu- sion of the war. At the outbreak of the Civil War his previous military experience made his services much in request. He commanded the first three years company organized in Ohio, viz .: Company A, 25th Ohio, and was again wounded slightly at Allegheny Mountain.
He was subsequently promoted major of his regiment and at the bloody battle of Cross Keys was shot through the entire body.
The bullet was picked up by the comrades
who carried him off the field and it is still in the Colonel's possession.
Miraculously, Major Charlesworth partially recovered and returned to the field and was promoted lieutenant-colonel, but the severity of his wound ( which ordinarily proves fatal) compelled him to resign and retire from further active service.
Notwithstanding Colonel Charlesworth has attained his 76th year and is still slightly lame from his old wound, he has the soldierly bear- ing of a veteran and the military enthusiasm of a youth.
THE CIVIL WAR.
At the outbreak of the Civil War, the patri- otic spirit in Belmont County pervaded all classes, and in quick response to President Lincoln's call for troops, the youth and gal- lantry of the county sprang to the defense of the nation, and three companies were organ- ized and in the field within 30 days after the call.
At the expiration of their term of service, the majority of the three months men re-en- listed for three years, and as the bloody strife continued, company after company was organ- ized until upwards of 3,500 gallant men from this county were enlisted in the various branches of the service.
In addition to the names that follow, there were hundreds of the patriotic sons of Belmont County that enlisted in the Ist and 2nd Vir- ginia Cavalry and Carlin's Virginia Battery, that were not accredited to Belmont County.
Capt. W. H. Orr of Martin's Ferry also or- ganized a whole company of Belmont County boys, that enlisted in the 2nd Virginia Infan- try and were accredited to that State. George Scheck of St. Clairsville was a member of the 2nd Virginia Cavalry.
A LAUGHABLE INCIDENT.
Colonel Charlesworth relates an incident of the racing up and down the Shenandoah, be- tween Pope and Jackson in the fall of 1862, that while laughable shows the extremities to which the boys were driven. The Colonel's

regiment had been on the march for several days, and the men were footsore and very hun- gry. "One morning," said the Colonel, "I saw Billy Smith of the 2nd Virginia Cavalry riding up the valley holding his sword above his head, with a loaf of bread sticking to the sheath. Now Billy used to live on Robert Wilkin's farm and many of us knew him. 'Hello! Smith,' I cried, 'What is that you've got?' 'Bread,' he exclaimed, 'bread. We captured a Rebel camp yesterday and found a big batch of new bread. Have this loaf,' he cried.
"I caught it eagerly and biting off a 'hunk' passed it down among the hungry boys who devoured it without ceremony and in less time than it has taken me to tell you.'
Beside those mentioned above, there were some Belmont County men that enlisted in the regular service, and many who claimed a birth- right in Belmont County that were conspicuous in leading the troops of their adopted States into action.
This was notably true of Col. Joseph Tho- burn of the Ist Virginia Infantry, a brave son of Belmont County, who was killed while lead- ing his brigade in the bloody charge at Cedar Creek.
Another of the brave Belmont County sol- diers, accredited to other States, was Gen. Henry Capeheart of the West Virginia Cav- alry. General Capeheart entered the service as colonel of the Ist Virginia (loyal) Cavalry and fought under Sheridan in the memorable cam- paign down the "Valley of Virginia." At the conclusion of the Civil War, Colonel Capeheart was serving as brigadier-general, an honor that had been conferred upon him by appoint- ment of Governor Pierpont of West Virginia for skill and bravery in the field.
When hostilities ceased, General Capeheart returned to the practice of his profession-that of medicine-which he followed until his deatlı.
THE 15TH OHIO AT CHICKAMAUGA.
At the battle of Chickamauga, the 15th Ohio was in the fiercest of the conflict. Capt. C. W.
Carroll speaks approvingly of the published account written upon the battlefield which says: "In the Saturday night fights and the all day Sunday assaults upon our log breast- works, the Confederate general, Claiborne, lost 43 per cent. of his men. General Helms was killed and his brigade had worn itself away upon the breastworks until 75 per cent. of his men had perished. The closing scenes around the Kelley farm came before sunset. Rose- crans had retired and Thomas was in com- mand. Breckenridge and Claiborne of the Con- federate side had brought their divisions to- gether for a supreme effort. At this juncture, Willich's brigade, in which was the 15th Ohio, made the fourth successful charge across the field.
"The Confederates were driven back through the woods and quiet was restored."
There was scarcely a bloody battle fought from Bull Run to Spottsylvania Court House in which Belmont County's troops were not en- gaged.
Gettysburg, Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge, Chancellorsville, the "March to the Sea," Perry- ville, Kenesaw Mountain, Cold Harbor, the Wilderness, and many other memorable battle- fields were enriched by the blood of her gallant sons. And it is but just and right that the names of these honored soldiers, living and dead, be transmitted to posterity. The follow- ing is a roster of the soldiers of Belmont Conn- ty that was prepared with much care 22 years ago. The names were copied from the Ad- jutant General's books on file in the State House at Columbus and were published in the "History of Belmont and Jefferson Counties." Much care was taken in copying the roster and we trust there will be no omissions.
This roster will tell the story of the enlist- ments, the promotions, the disabilities, and the casualties of the gallant sons of Belmont Coun- ty that fought for the preservation of the Union in the War of the Rebellion. An ex- amination of it will reveal the fact that a great majority of the old veterans have been "miis- tered out" and those that still abide with 11s are enfeebled by age and disabilities.
