ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY-NINTH INFANTRY.
THE One Hundred and Twenty-ninth was mustered in August 10. 1863, at Camp Taylor, near Cleveland, for a service of six months, and included in its ranks thirty-eight men from Cuyahoga county, all but one in Company E. On the day of organization the regi- ment set out for Camp Nelson, Ky., where it was attached to the Ninth army corps.
On the 20th of August the brigade moved to Cum- berland Gap, and after the surrender of that place remained there until December 1st, when the One Hundred and Twenty-ninth was ordered to march in the direction of Clinch river. At the crossing of the Knoxville road over that streami t took part in an en- gagement with a division of (ien. Longstreet's corps. From the 2nd to the last of December, the men of the One Hundred and Twenty-ninth were engaged in almost constant skirmishing along the line of Clinch river, and during that severe portion of the winter they suffered many hardships, although exempt from the heavy loss of life visited upon other regiments in that vicinity. Upon the opening of the year 1864, the One Hundred and Twenty-ninth returned to the Gap, and on the 1st of February started for Cleve- land, being mustered out there in the following month.

DURING the autumn of 1864 and the following winter there was great need of men to replace those
lost by bullets, disease and other casualties of war, vet the National authorities felt sure that with persis- tent effort the already tottering confederacy could be overturned within a year. They therefore did what they had not before done. authorized the raising of regiments to serve for one year, to aid in giving the final blow to the slaveholder's rebellion. Twenty-six such regiments numbered from One Hundred and Seventy-three to One Hundred and Ninety-eighth in- clusive. were raised in Ohio alone. Nine of these contained representatives from Cuyahoga county, whose records are given in this chapter. A large pro- portion of the men and almost all of the officers had served in other organizations. so that the regiments, though new. were by no means " green," but able to play their part with credit from the very first.
ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SEVENTH INFANTRY.
The One Hundred and Seventy-seventh was organ- ized at Cleveland in October, 1864. for one year's service. and included three hundred and fifty-one Cuyahoga-county men. Ou reporting to Major Gen- eral Thomas at Nashville, the regiment was ordered to Tullahoma. where it did garrison duty until Hood's invasion, and then marched to Murfreesboro reach- ing that place on the 2nd of December. In an en- gagement with the Rebels before Murfreesboro on the tth of that month the One Hundred and Seventy- seventh displayed the utmost readiness for the con- fliet, and was for a brief period sharply engaged; Milroy's command, of which it was a part, charging the rebels bebind breastworks, driving them away and capturing two pieces of artillery. A few days after- wards, while on a foraging expedition the regiment charged a rebel battery and compelled it to retreat; having. itself. eleven men killed and wounded.
After Hood was driven from Tennessee. the One Hundred and Seventy-seventh was ordered to Wash- ington, and was thence transported to Fort Fisher, N. C .. where it arrived on the 4th of February, 1865. Subsequently the regiment participated in two attacks upon the enemy's works and was engaged in the flank movement which forced the rebels to evacute Fort Anderson. It also fought the enemy at Twin Creek and captured the entire command. Leaving Wilming- ton after the surrender of that place, it joined Sher- man at Goldsboro, and after the capture of Johnston proceeded to Cleveland. where it was discharged on the 4th of July. 1865.
