Everything was quiet about Pueblo while Scott was fighting at the city of Mexico, but as soon as the Mexicans there were overcome, they turned their attention toward Pueblo. On the 24th of Septem- ber a large body of Mexicans came into Pueblo, and commenced the siege of that place which lasted until the 12th of Octo- ber, when General Lane arrived with his column.


On the 22d of September, 1847, Santa Anna arrived at Pueblo from Mexico, with a considerable force, and assumed com- mand of the Mexican forces, which at this time amounted to eight thousand men. Childs was summoned to surrender, but politely declined to do so, saying that Americans were not inclined to do such things. And he did not surrender, but held the fort until the arrival of Lane with his brigade, which, after a fight in the streets of Pueblo, drove the Mexicans away, and relieved Colonel Childs.


The Fourteenth Ohio regiment re-

mained at Pueblo until after the treaty with Mexico was ratified. On the 2d of June, 1848, the regiment left Pueblo on the return home. They reached Cin- cinnati in the latter part of July, where they were discharged, and Company C, homeward bound, travelled to Tiffin by railroad, thence to Fremont by wagons, to be warmly and thankfully received by their friends. Although the company lost few in battle, there were few sound men in the ranks when they reached home. Nearly all were greatly enfeebled by the diseases incident to Mexico and army life, and chronic diarrhea carried off a numberafter reaching home, and enfeebled many dur- ing the remainder of life.


Captains Amon C. Bradley and J. A. Jones also recruited a number of men in Sandusky county for the Mexican war. It has been ascertained that the following named were enlisted in the company of Captain Jones, whose company, however, was chiefly composed of men from Huron county, their headquarters being at Nor- walk :


Matthew H. Chance, John Stahl, George Momeny, John Griffin, Nathan Griffin.


The following other named men were volunteers from Sandusky county, and went into service, but whether in Captain Bradley's or Captain Jones' company, cannot be determined by the information within our reach, to wit :


Jesse Herbster, Ephraim Herbster, Amos Crain, Frederick Noss, Michael Oberst, Amos Cumings, Aitkin Morton, George Fater, George Parrish, Joseph F. Francis, Henry S. Francisco, and Andrew Kline.


THE WAR OF THE REBELLION.


The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, gave offense to the leading statesmen of the South.


The baneful teachings of Calhoun had planted deeply and widely in the minds of the Southern people the political heresy that the several States of the Union were


each sovereign, and had the right to secede, and to be the judge of their cause for seceding, and when they might respect- ively exercise the right. Not only did this doctrine prevail in the South, but the Northern Democracy, under the same, had for years given at least tacit assent to the teachings of Calhoun 'as the true theory of our Government. The Republican party rejected this theory, and claimed that we were a Nation, that for National purposes the Government of the United States must necessarily be supreme and the States subordinate.


The right and wrong of slavery in the Southern States, and the question of its extension into the territories which were soon to become States, had for years been debated in Congress, by the press of the country, by orators on the stump, and by lecturers on the platform, until the public mind had become profoundly agi- tatedjon the subject, both North and South.


The election of Abraham Lincoln dem- onstrated that the institution of slavery could not be extended, and Southern statesmen whose influence had dominated the Government so long, saw plainly that without an extension of their peculiar institution, their power was destined to pass away, and that the sentiment of freedom would dominate in all depart- ments of the Government. They clearly foresaw that such a condition, coupled with the growing and aggressive anti-slavery sen- timent in the free States, would not only take from them the ascendency in the Government and the benefits of its pat- ronage, but threatened the very existence of their own peculiar institution of slavery in the States where it existed. Hence, we see, political convictions, State pride, love of power, and a tremendous force of self interest in the ownership of slaves, all converging to drive them to the terrible resort of a conflict of armed force.

HISTORY OF SANDUSKY COUNTY.


It is unnecessary here to recite all the steps taken by the enemies of the Union anterior to the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln.


Fort Moultrie, when surrounded by scowling, deadly foes too numerous to be re- sisted, had been wisely abandoned by Ma- jor Anderson, who was compelled to trans- fer his feeble force to Fort Sumter in the night of December 26, 1860.


John B. Floyd, Secretary of War, had resigned his post on the 29th of the same month.


Jacob Thompson, Secretary of the Inte- rior, had left his post with a heavy defalca- tion of eight hundred and seventy thou- sand dollars in his department.


The Star of the West, carrying rein- forcements and supplies to Major Ander- son at Fort Sumter, had been fired upon by the rebels and compelled to turn back.


General Twiggs,commanding the United States military forces in Texas, had, on the 23d of February, 1860, treacherously, traitorously, turned over to the State of rebellious Texas, all the forces under his command, being nearly half the then reg- ular army of the United States, with all the property and military stores in that State, amounting to near two millions of dollars in value.


The ship Star of the West, which, after its return from the abortive attempt to re- inforce and provision Fort Sumter, was dispatched, laden with supplies for the army of the frontier, went into the harbor of Indianola unsuspicious of the extent of the rebellion, and became an easy prey to the exultant rebels.


The defensive fortifications located with- in the seceded States, mounting over three thousand guns, and having cost more than twenty millions of dollars, had been seized and appropriated by the Confederates-all under the eyes of President Buchanan, without a hand raised to prevent the rob-


bery of the Nation, or to punish treason to the Government.


There it no doubt but the naturally weak President, by accepting the doc- trines of Calhoun, and by pledges to administer the Government according to the requirements of Southern statesmen, was fettered and bound hand and foot, and all his powers to save the Union were paralyzed. Hence he stood stupid, amazed, and hepless while the Union was crumbling, betrayed, and robbed, and an opposing confederacy formed with the purpose of overthrowing the Constitution of the fathers, and subjugating the North by armed force.


While the later events above noticed were being enacted, and on the 11th of Febru- ary, 1861, Abraham Lincoln left his home at Springfield, Illinois, for Washington City. The story of his journey, how the peo- ple honored him on the way, how at Harris- burg his friends, having good ground to believe he would be assassinated at Balti- more if he should pass through there at the appointed time, started him on his journey through that city twenty-four hours in advance of the contemplated time, that he should escape from the assas- sins lying in wait for their opportunity ; how he arrived at Washington; how he was inaugurated, his pleading with the rebels to desist and accept his most gen- erous offers for peace consistent with the existence of the Union, are all too familiar to the people to need particularizing here.


On the 15th of April, 1861, President Lincoln issued his proclamation for seventy-five thousand volunteer militia to be furnished by the several States accord- ing to population. The apportionment to Ohio was thirteen regiments, of seven hundred and eighty men each.


The intelligent people of Sandusky county had watched all the events preced- ing this proclamation, with a burning, pat-

riotic indignation. And now, when this proclamation came to them, they fairly leaped into the service. The first oppor- tunity offered was to form two companies of the Eighth Ohio volunteer infantry, to serve three months. Hundreds of able- bodied men of Sandusky county offered to volunteer, but the quota for Ohio was so suddenly filled that they were denied the coveted privilege of serving their country under this first call.


The Eighth regiment Ohio volunteers was first organized as a three months' regi- ment, at Camp Taylor, Cleveland, Ohio, and sent to Camp Dennison for equipment and drill, April 28, 1861. It was subse- quently reorganized for three years, and left camp for West Virginia July 8, 1861, the following named officers and com- panies having been mustered into the service :


FIELD AND STAFF.


Colonel Herman G. DePuy, Erie county.


Lieutenant Colonel Charles A. Park, Lorain county.


Major Franklin Sawyer, Huron county. Adjutant Joseph R. Swigout, Crawford county. Quartermaster Herman Reuss, Huron county. Surgeon Benjamin Tappan, Jefferson county.


Assistant Surgeon Samuel Sexton, Hamilton county.


Chaplain L. N. Freeman, Erie county.


Surgeons B. Tappan, resigned; Thomas Mc- Ebright, resigned; Joseph L. Bunton.


Assistant Surgeons-S. Sexton, resigned; T. Cul- ver, resigned; Freeman A. Tuttle and James S. Pollock.


Chaplains-Rev. L. N. Freeman, resigned, and Alexander Miller.


Adjutants-Lieutenant Joseph R. Swigart, trans- ferred to General Kimball's staff; Lieutenant David Lewis, promoted to captain, and Lieutenant John W. DePuy.


Quartermasters-Lieutenant Herman Ruess and Lieutenant E. F. Dickinson, promoted to captain.


The regiment was composed of ten companies: Company A, from Seneca county; Company B, Cleveland; Com- pany C, Crawford county; Company D, Huron county; Company E, Erie county; Companies F and G, Sandusky county ;


Company H, Medina and Lorain; Com- pany I, Lorain, and Company K, Medina.


Company F was organized in Sandusky county. Captain George M. Tillotson died at Fremont, Ohio, March 4, 1863 ; First Lieutenant Charles M. Fouke, re- signed; Second Lieutenant E. W. Cook, resigned ; First Lieutenant Henry Farnum, promoted from sergeant, also promoted to captain, wounded at Gettysburg; Second Lieutenant Thomas H. Thornburgh, pro- moted from sergeant, wounded at Mine Run.


Company G was organized in Sandusky county. Captain Williani E. Haynes, pro- moted to Lieutenant Colonel Tenth Ohio volunteer cavalry; First Lieutenant Ed- ward F. Dickinson, promoted to captain, served as regimental quartermaster (since a member of Forty-first Congress from Ninth Congressional district of Ohio); Second Lieutenant Creighton Thompson, wounded at Antietam.


The regiment left Camp Dennison for Virginia, July 8, 1861, and served in the campaign against Garnett's force; was present at an attempt on Romney, under Colonel Cantwell of the Eighty second Ohio, at its capture under General Kelley. It was also engaged in a skirmish at Blue Gap and at Bloomey Gap. During the winter of 1861-62 it formed a part of General Lander's force, on the Upper Potomac, Patterson's Creek, and Paw Paw Tunnel.


In November, 1861, Colonel De Puy and Lieutenant-Colonel Park resigned and Cap- tain S. S. Carroll, of the United States Army, was appointed colonel. Major Sawyer was promoted to lieutenant-colonel, and Captain 1. H. Winslow to major. Col- onel Carroll was a graduate of West Point, brave, active, and devoted to his profes- sion. During six weeks under his com- mand, at Romney, the regiment attained a high state of proficiency in drill and tac-

tics, and the esprit du corps for which it was afterwards greatly celebrated.


In March, 1862, the regiment joined General Shields' division, in the Valley of the Shenandoah, and took part in the campaign against "Stonewall" Jackson ; and, on the 23d of March, in the battle of Winchester, Colonel Carroll, with part of the regiment, was at one time hotly engaged on the left of the position, losing three men killed, and receiving several balls in his clothing. Colonel Sawyer, with companies C, D, E, and H, was on the right, and charged the enemy in flank, in conjunction with the Fifth and Sixty- second Ohio. The loss in these four companies in killed and wounded was more than one-fourth the number engaged.


After this battle Colonel Carroll was placed in command of a brigade, and did not again command the regiment, which was, during the balance of its service, in command of Lieutenant-Colonel Sawyer, with brief exception. The regiment was at this time assigned to General Kimball's brigade, consisting of the Fourth and Eighth Ohio, Fourteenth Indiana, and Seventh Virginia.


Shields' division now moved to Fred. ericksburg, and left General Banks to his fate in the valley; and as soon as he had been driven back into Maryland, Shields marched back to the valley. Kimball's brigade retook Front Royal, the Eighth being in front, and Captain Haynes, of Company G, entered the town, capturing most of the force and supplies of the rebels, also capturing the famous Belle Boyd. After Shields' failure at Port Re- public he was relieved, and Kimball, with his brigade, sent to join McClellan, on the James, where he arrived on the 2d of July, by steamer, and debarked at Harri- son's Landing as McClellan was falling back from Malvern Hill. Immediately, under command of General Ferry, the


brigade pushed out for the Chickahominy, constantly skirmishing with the enemy for several days. On the 4th of July the Eighth drove in the enemy's pickets, losing seven men killed and wounded.


The regiment remained at Harrison's Landing until the line of the James River was abandoned, August 16, 1862, when, being organized with French's di- vision, Sumner's corps, then and after- wards known as Second Division, Second Corps, the regiment returned to Yorktown, thence to Newport News, whence, by transports, it arrived at Alexandria; thence marched to Centreville, where the retreat- ing army of Pope was met. Here the corps protected the retreat of the army; supported Kearney at Chantilly, and moved on the left flank, crossing the Potomac at the chain bridge. From this point the corps moved to the Monocacy, having a brisk skirmish, thence to South Mountain, where the corps supported Burnside, and witnessed the battle of the 15th September. The corps crossed the mountain next morning, and took position on the Antietam which it crossed early on the morning of the 17th, and attacked the enemy by divisions in front of Sharps- burg. The First division, under Sedgwick, had been driven back, and our division, under French, was ordered forward, and finally carried an important position at the point of the bayonet. Kimball led his brigade gallantly to the work; not a man faltered, but the position was gained only at a loss of nearly one-half his men. But few over three hundred, rank and file, of the Eighth were present, and its loss in the battle was one hundred and sixty two killed and wounded. Lieutenants Delany, Lantry, Bill, and Barnes were killed, and Lieutenants Shilletto Smith, company A, and Thompson, company G, each losing an eye, were carried from the field sup- posed to be dead. Nine other officers

were severely wounded. Colonel Sawyer's and Adjutant Lewis' horses were both shot. Lieutenant Dickinson, then acting as quartermaster, was on the field during the day acting as aid-de-camp to General Kimball. The Fourteenth Indiana lost heavily, and in conjunction with the Eighth made a partial change of position under fire. The Seventh Virginia lost heavily also, and Colonel Oakford, One Hundred and Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania, was killed. This regiment- One Hundred and Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania-replaced the Fourth Ohio, which was at the time in convalescent camp at some distance from the battlefield. General French honored the brigade with the title of "the Gibraltar brigade."


From this place the brigade was pushed rapidly to Harper's Ferry, and thence to Leesburgh, on a tedious and fruitless ex- pedition. From Harper's Ferry the regi- ment, with the army, marched to Falmouth, and participated in the battle of Frederieks- burgh, December 12, 1862. In this bat- tle the Eighth and Fourth Ohio and First Delaware on the left, in command of Col- onel Sawyer, formed a sort of forlorn hope, being ordered to drive in the pick- ets and sharpshooters between the town and Marie's Hill, to cut and level the fences, etc. This was gallantly done, and the position designated taken by the troops, at a point beyond which no organ- ization of troops passed during the terrible battle that followed.


Captain Allen, company I, and Sergeant- Major Henthorn were killed, and several men were killed and wounded.


Winter quarters were established at Fal- mouth. General Kimball having been severely wounded was relieved from com- mand. On the roth of January, 1863, Colonel Carroll assumed command of the brigade, which he retained until wounded at the battle of Spottsylvania, May 12, 1864.


The next battle was Chancellorsville. The Eighth regiment, though engaged in line of battle during the 2d, 3d, and 4th days of May, suffered but little, losing but one man killed and six wounded.


Next came the Gettysburg campaign. In this battle the regiment showed con- spicuous bravery. Midway between the two armies the turnpike is cut through a ridge, thus forming a good rifle-pit. This the rebels held, and from it their sharp- shooters were picking off our officers and men. The Eighth was ordered to take and hold the place. Colonel Sawyer led the charge, mounted, and drove out and captured the rebels in fine style. They . were soon reinforced and attempted to retake it, but were driven back with great loss.


This was on the afternoon of July 2d. The loss in the regiment had been severe, but the order was to "hold the fort." At daylight on the morning of the 3d the rebels again made a determined attack, but were repulsed. About noon a tre- mendous cannonade began, the shot from both armies passing overhead, and iwo of the men were killed. As soon as the artillery duel had ceased the rebel infantry began to move in force toward the line, the main body moving to our right, but three regiments confronting us. The whole regiment now remaining was drawn up in line and made a desperate charge with the bayonet as the rebel line approached, which broke and ran, leaving half its men and three battle-flags in our hands. One-half the regiment present were killed and wounded. Among the killed were Lieutenant Hayden, company H, Sergeant Kipko, company A, and Sergeant Peters, company G; among the wounded were Lieutenants Farnam and Thornburgh, com- pany F, and Captains Pierce, Miller, Ried and Nickerson. The regiment, with its corps, followed up the rebels, skirmish-

ing continually, to Harper's Ferry, and thence to Culpeper. At this point the regiment was relieved from the front, and sent, with other troops, to New York city, by steamer, to suppress the draft riots. This trip was, to all, a most pleasant epi- sode in arıny life.


Returning from New York the regiment · joined its corps, still at Culpeper. Gen- eral Lee had turned the right wing of the army and was forcing it back over the path of Pope's retreat of the year before. During the retreat the Eighth was en- gaged in a severe skirmish at Auburn, and the brisk little battle at Bristow Sta- tion. Colonel Carroll's horse was killed, our baggage horses captured, and several men wounded.


Lee now fell back to Mine Run, and Meade, commanding our army, followed. At a skirmish near Robinson's Tavern Colonel Sawyer's horse was killed, and several men killed and wounded.


The army now went into winter quar- ters. On the 8th of February the Eighth participated in the skirmish at Morton's Ford, crossing the ford with the division under General Alexander Hayes.


On the 3d of May, 1864, the regiment, with its corps, the Second, still com- manded by General Hancock, crossed the Rapidan for the final campaign. The corps struck the enemy on the afternoon of the 5th, and the Eighth recaptured a gun just taken from Sedgwick, in which skirmish Lieutenant McKisson was wound- ed. The next morning the brigade was pushed forward, and the Eighth become hotly engaged in an almost hand to hand fight. Captain Craig, commanding com- pany F, was killed, and Captain Lewis, commanding company G, was danger- ously wounded, his left thigh bone being shot off. Several other losses occurred. Two wounded men fell into the hands of the rebels, and were carried to Anderson-


ville. Following the enemy to Spottsylva- nia the Eighth was engaged on the 9th, charging the enemy's works, with the divi- sion, which was repulsed. Lieutenant Huysung and Color-bearer James Conlan, were among the severely wounded.


At a little after midnight on the morn- ing of the 12th, the Second Corps drew out of its position, and, amid profound darkness, passed noiselessly to the left, with the design of attacking the enemy's right wing. By daylight we were sup- posed to be in its vicinity. The Eighth Ohio and First Delaware, in command of Colonel Sawyer, were ordered forward to clear out what appeared to be a few troops in an orchard and some negro huts in front. This developed the picket line, and the whole corps was soon in motion. The Eighth joined its brigade as it came up, and the whole division, moving for- ward at a quick-step, came upon a rebel brigade, which surrendered with hardly a shot, and soon received the first volley from the real rebel line.


The salient, as the rebel right was re- pulsed, had been struck, and the whole corps, pushing forward at a double-quick, was soon master of the rebel works. The whole corps suffered fearfully, and the loss in the Eighth was terrible. Lieuten- ant Manahan, Company D, was killed; the color-bearer, Sergeant Gallagher, mor- tally wounded, with many others. Colonel Sawyer was severely wounded, at the time it was supposed mortally; Colonel Coons, Fourteenth Indiana, with other officers of his regiment, were killed; Colonel Lock- wood, Seventh Virginia, terribly wounded ; Colonel Davis, Twelfth New Jersey, the captain commanding the First Delaware, and several officers of the Fourth Ohio, all from our little brigade, lay dead around us as the smoke of the battle for a mo- ment cleared away. The enemy soon rallied, and the fight went on. During

the day Colonel Carroll was severely wounded and carried from the field.


Major Winslow now assumed command of the regiment. On the 19th it partici- pated in the battle of the North Anna, crossing the river under fire, and losing several men. On the 26th it was again engaged at Hanover Court House, and on the 3Ist at Cold Harbor, in which bat- tle the loss in the regiment was twenty- four killed and several wounded.


The regiment was not again seriously engaged, but followed the fortunes of the Second Corps to the front of Petersburg, from which place it was relieved, and re- turned home, its term of enlistment hav- ing expired. It arrived in Cleveland on the morning of the 3d of July, 1864, and was mustered out on the 13th, numbering less than one hundred rank and file fit for duty.


The regiment had been engaged in for- ty-eight battles and skirmishes. It had never wavered in its duty, never had lost its position in battle, had lost, all told, but six prisoners, and they were wounded and unable to be removed from the field. It had taken four rebel battle flags and twice its own number of prisoners. It had frequently, as a regiment, been com- mended by commanding generals for its bravery, and was complimented by Gov- ernor Brough as one of the best of Ohio's brave regiments.
