FIFTH OHIO INFANTRY.


This was also originally one of the three-months' organizations, and was made up of young men from Cin- cinnati and the vicinity. It went into Camp Harrison, near that city, April 20, 1861; was mustered into the Federal service May 3d; was transferred to Camp Den- nison May 23d; re-enlisted in a body for three years the next month, and was re-mustered June 20th, and started for the field in western Virginia, July roth. Its first service here was under Brigadier General Charles W. Hill, under whom a very toilsome march was taken over · the spurs of the Alleghanies, in a vain effort to intercept the retreating troops of the rebel General Garnet. It then engaged in guard duty and drill at Parkersburgh until August 5th, when it moved to Buckhannon, and lay there until November 3d. Near this point companies A, B, and C had a sharp fight with a party of rebels, losing one man and killing several of the enemy. Thence the regiment marched to New Creek on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, and presently to Romney, where it had hard service, entire companies being sent out daily on scouts, and supplying very large details for picket duty, some of whom had their posts six or seven miles from camp. Colonel Dunning, of the Fifth, here took com-


mand of the forces in and about Romney, in place of General Kelly, who was disabled by a wound. Hearing of a rebel force of fifteen hundred at Blue's Gap, sixteen miles out, he moved a detachment against it during a driving snow storm on the night of January 6, 1862, surprised the enemy, killing twenty of them, capturing a number, with two cannon, and destroying the mill and other property of the rebel Colonel Blue, at that point. This was the beginning of the Fifth Ohio's reputation for bravery and thorough-going dealing with the rebels. The confederate papers soundly anathematized the regi- ment led "by a butcher," and advised their commanders to show its members no quarter. Within fifteen hours from the time of starting the regiment was back at Rom- ney, having in that short space of time marched thirty- four miles and fought a spirited and successful action.


General Lander took command of the forces shortly after, and the regiment was moved in rapid succession to a number of places, marching and countermarching for more than a month, and suffering much from the inclement season. February 13th, with the Eighth Ohio and a cavalry force, it made a reconnoisance in force on Bloomney Furnace, during which the cavalry engaged the enemy and won a victory. March 18th, under Gen- eral Shields, it participated in another reconnoisance to Strasburgh, the enemy being pushed several miles beyond Mt. Jackson, but without bringing on an action. On the twenty-second, from Winchester the regiment was moved out hastily and the next day reached Kerns- town and took a position to support a battery, where it was attacked, with other forces in the battle, about nine A. M. It held its place until afternoon, when five com- panies were detached and moved alone against an over- whelming force, whose fire they sustained alone in an open field for some time, returning it with interest, until reinforcements came, when the united commands ad- vanced and soon routed the enemy. Five color-bearers of the regiment were successively shot down in this short but sharp fight, among them Captain George B. Whit- com, of Cincinnati. The Fifth is believed to have saved the day, at least on this part of the field. Not long after the rout here the enemy began his retreat, getting off without further disaster in the darkness of the night. . The Fifth lost torty-seven killed and wounded in the bat- tle of Winchester. The regimental colors received forty-eight bullet holes in this action, and the State flag ten. A movement was soon after begun beyond Strasburgh, through Woodstock, and to the Shenandoah, where a destroyed bridge and Ashby's cavalry on the other side checked their advance. A dash Was made by the Fifth and some cavalry into Mt. Jackson, but the enemy fled before their arrival. The regiment then encamped at Newmarket, Colonel Dunning commanding the brigade. In a fortnight it advanced to Harrisonburgh, where, May 7th, a beautiful stand of colors was presented by a depu- tation from the city council of Cincinnati, as a token of appreciation at home of the regiment's bravery and efficiency in the late battle.


May 12th another march was begun, which continued to Falmouth, one hundred and fifty miles distant. May

25th it moved to Front Royal, and June 3d reached the Shenandoah again, having marched in three weeks two hundred and eighty-five miles through mud and rain without meeting an enemy and with scarcely half rations. June 9th, however, at Port Republic, it became hotly engaged, and behaved with its usual courage and dash. After some firing by volley, it charged two rebel regi- ments covered by a fence and drove them into the woods, where they were again charged and one field gun cap- tured. Moving to the left, it repelled a charge upon one of our batteries, but had presently to cover a retreat, in which it lost one hundred and eighty-five men taken cap- tive. Its total loss in this affair-killed, wounded, and prisoners-was two hundred and forty-four. Many inci- dents of personal valor and cunning occurred to the Fifth here. Lieutenant Kirkup, of Cincinnati, after being taken, escaped his guard and went but a little way, when he met two rebels and claimed them as prisoners. They gave up, and under their guidance he got out of the mountains and rejoined his command. The colors were saved on the retreat by color corporals Brinkman and Shaw wrapping them about their bodies and swimming the Shenandoah, whence they made their way to General Fremont's command four days after. The retreat was kept up to Luray, where rest was had till June 24th, when the regiment moved through Thoroughfare Gap to Bristow's Station, and was thenceforth on daily march for five weeks, over more than five hundred miles, compelled thereto by the rapid and obscure movements of Stonewall Jackson in the valley. When at last halted at Alexan- dria, the men of the Fifth were completely fagged out, were shelterless, and nearly naked. After rest and re- equipment on the twenty-fifth of July it went by rail to Warrenton, remaining there some days, and thence march- ing to Little Washington. Here General Tyler, com- manding the brigade, took leave of it, and particularly of the Fifth, which was specially endeared to him. Gen- eral Geary, afterwards governor of Pennsylvania, suc- ceeded him. August 9th, from Culpeper Court-House, the regiment made a forced march to the battle-field of Cedar Mountain, in which it took full part, Colonel Pat- rick commanding. The Union forces were pressed back by overwhelming numbers, and the Fifth lost eighteen killed, thirteen officers and eighty-nine men wounded, and two missing, out of two hundred and seventy-five in the action. Among the badly wounded was Lieutenant Colonel Armstrong, who was obliged to retire from field service.


The Fifth participated in the retrograde movements of Pope's army and the terrible battles on the plains of Man- assas. After brief respite it joined the forces pursuing the rebels, passing through Frederick City and other points, and reaching the field of Antietam September 16th. Here it was closely engaged the next day, under command of Major Collins, once in a hand-to-hand con- flict, in which many of the men used the butts of their guns, until the enemy slowly and stubbornly gave way. At another point the brigade to which it belonged, reduced to five hundred men, held its ground against a much larger force, and was so poorly supported that it had to


fall back to avoid being outflanked. In this battle the Fifth emptied its cartridge boxes three times, firing about one hundred shots per man, and marking the front of its positions by rows of dead rebels. It lost fifty-four men killed and wounded, of one hundred and eighty engaged. Its next camp was at Dumfries, in December, where the garrison was attacked on the twenty-seventh by Stuart's cavalry, the action lasting through an entire afternoon, when the rebels retreated. Lieutenants Walker and Le- Force, of company G, were killed, three of the regiment wounded, and five taken. The Fifth then rested at Dumfries till April 24, 1863, when it joined the advance of Hooker across the Rappahannock, and was engaged throughout at Chancellorsville, performing a distinguished part in that bloody action. It was also in the great bat- tle of Gettysburgh, July 3d, and in the fruitless pursuit that followed. Lieutenant Brinkman, one of the heroes of Port Republic, was killed at Gettysburgh. In August, the regiment was sent to New York city to quell the draft riots, and remained there till September 8th, when it returned to Alexandria, and after sundry marches was taken by rail to Murfreesborough, Tennessee, receiving many tokens of regard as it passed through Ohio, but not being allowed to visit Cincinnati, where many of the men had not been for two and a half years. October 3, 1863, they reached the intrenchments at Murfreesborough, and finding the enemy in the vicinity, whom they assisted in repelling. Rejoining the Potomac troops, the Elev- enth and Twelfth corps, which had been transported to Lookout valley, the Fifth took part in the famous "battle above the clouds;" afterwards did post duty at Bridge- port, Alabama, was in the advance on Atlanta and some of the battles of that campaign, in one of the first of which Colonel Patrick lost his life. The time of the reg- iment expired during this movement, and it was moved to the rear in charge of prisoners. Many of the men, notwithstanding their hard service, decided to re-enlist, and had the privilege of a short furlough. They soon rejoined the conquering host pressing upon Atlanta, and were in the march to the sea and through the Carolinas and the great reviews at Washington, from which they returned to Cincinnati. They were mustered out at Louisville, July 26, 1865, and finally paid and discharged at Camp Dennison.


Scarcely any Ohio regiment has a more remarkable history. It took part in twenty-eight engagements, in- cluding six pitched battles, with many reconnoissances and skirmishes, marched on foot one thousand three hun- dred and seventy-five miles, travelled nine hundred and ninety-three miles by rail, and sustained a total loss of five hundred men, killed, wounded, and prisoners.
