SIXTH KENTUCKY INFANTRY.
The Sixth was organized at Camp Sigel, Jeffer- son county, in December, 1861, under Colonel Walter C. Whitaker, and was mustered into the United States service on the 24th December, 1861, by Major W. H. Sidell, United States mustering officer. Immediately after organiza- tion it was assigned to the Department of the Cumberland, and entered upon active duty. It was commanded by Colonel Whitaker until June 30, 1863, when he was promoted brigadier-general, and Lieutenant-Colonel George T. Shackelford was commissioned colonel. In all the early en- gagements in Tennessee and on the Atlanta campaign, this regiment took an active part, and in the battles of Shiloh, Stone River, and Chick- amauga suffered severely in killed and wounded. The number actually killed in battle exceeded

ten per cent of the number originally enlisted. It was the recipient of frequent orders of praise for undaunted gallantry, soldierly conduct, and discipline. Throughout its whole enlistment its achievements were brilliant and without reproach, and equal to the best volunteer regiment in the army. It participated in the following-named battles, in which loss was sustained, viz: Shiloh, Stone River, Readyville, Tennessee, Chicka- mauga, Mission Ridge, Allatoona Mountain, Re- saca, Kenesaw Mountain, Dallas, Rocky Face Ridge, Peachtree Creek, Adairsville, and Atlanta.
It was mustered out at Nashville, on the 2d day of November, 1864, the recruits and veter- ans being transferred to the Kentucky Mounted Infantry.

TENTH KENTUCKY INFANTRY.
The Tenth was organized at Lebanon, under Colonel John M. Harlan, and mustered into service on the 2 1st day of November, 1861.
It was assigned to what was then the Second brigade, First division of the Army of the Ohio. On the 3Ist of December the regiment com- menced its march from Lebanon to Mill Springs. It did not participate in the battle of Mill Springs, being on detached duty, but joined the division in time to be the first to enter the rebel fortifications. From Mill Springs it marched to Louisville, from which place it went by steam- boat to Nashville, thence to Pittsburg Landing, and took part in the siege of Corinth. A few days after, the brigade of which the Tenth formed a part was sent by General Grant up the Ten- nessee river on transports, guarded by a gunboat, all under the immediate command of W. T. Sherman. The forces landed at Chickasaw. The object of the expedition was to penetrate the country from Chickasaw and destroy the large railroad bridge east of Corinth and near Iuka, which was most successfully done. In June, 1862, the regiment marched to Tuscumbia, Ala- bama, and garrisoned Eastport, Mississippi, dur- ing July, 1862. It then marched through Ten- nessee and joined the division at Winchester, and garrisoned that place for some time. In July, 1862, two companies of the regiment, A and H, then on duty at Courtland, Alabama, were surrounded by an overwhelming force of the enemy and captured. The Tenth composed a part of Buell's army in his pursuit of Bragg into Kentucky; after which it returned to Galla- tin, Tennessee.
On the 25th of December, 1862, the brigade
105
HISTORY OF THE OHIO FALLS COUNTIES.
started from Gallatin in pursuit of the rebel Gen- eral John H. Morgan, and to protect the Louis- ville & Nashville railroad. Morgan was over- taken on the 29th December, at Rolling Fork, and driven from the line of the railroad. In that affair General Duke, of Morgan's com- mand, was dangerously wounded. The regi- ment returned to Nashville, and was immediately sent by General Rosecrans, with other troops, in pursuit of Forrest and Wheeler, on the Harpeth river, where it suffered terribly from cold and rain. It was then stationed at ·Lavergne, Ten- nessee; at which place, on the 7th of March, 1863, Colonel Harlan resigned the colonelcy of the regiment, duties having devolved on the colonel by the death of his father, the late Hon. James Harlan, which required his personal at- tention. After the resignation of General Harlan, Lieutenant-Colonel Hays was promoted colonel, and remained in command until it was mustered out of service.
The regiment was with Rosecrans in his sum- mer campaign from Murfreesboro to Chicka- mauga, participating in actions at Hoover's Gap, Fairfield, Tullahoma, Compton's Creek, and Chickamauga, returning with the army to Chat- tanoga. It was under General Thomas at Chick- amauga, took part in the battle of Mission Ridge, and pursued the enemy beyond Ringgold, Geor- gia. It marched from Chattanooga and partici- pated in the action at Rocky Face Ridge Febru- ary 25, 1864, and, returning to Ringgold, which was then the outpost of the army, it remained there until May 10, 1864, when it started with General Sherman on the Atlanta campaign, taking part in nearly every action or movement in that long and eventful campaign. The flag of the Tenth was the first to be placed on the enemy's works at Jonesboro, Georgia, September 1, 1864. It was the first regiment to break the rebel lines at that place, and entered their works, capturing the Sixth and Seventh Arkansas rebel regiments and their colors.
On the 9th July, 1864, the Tenth had a severe engagement on the north bank of the Chatta- hoochie river, engaging, single handed and alone, a brigade of the enemy and holding them in check until reinforcements arrived. It would be impossible to give a full history of this regiment in the short space allotted for the purpose; the last campaign alone would fill a volume. Suffice
it to say that, in the three years of its military ex- istence, the Tenth performed its whole duty, and at all times maintained the proud reputation of its State. It was mustered out of service at Louisville, December 6, 1864.
Besides numerous other engagements, it par- ticipated in the following, in which loss was sustained, viz: Chickamauga, Mission Ridge, Jonesboro, Corinth, Rolling Fork, Hoover's Gap, Fairfield, Tullahoma, Compton's Creek, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Chattahoochie River, Atlanta, Vining's Station, Pickett's Mills, and Courtland, Alabama.

FIFTEENTH KENTUCKY INFANTRY.
The Fifteenth was organized in the fall of 1861, at Camp Pope, near New Haven, under Colonel Curran Pope, and was mustered into the United States service on the 14th day of De- cember, 1861, at Camp Pope, by Captain C. C. Gilbert, United States mustering officer, and marched to Bacon Creek; thence via Bowling Green, Kentucky, Nashville, Murfreesboro, Shel- byville, and Fayette, Tennessee, to Huntsville, Alabama; thence to Winchester, Tennessee; thence to Gunter's landing and Elk River. On the 31st day of August, 1862, it started on the campaign after Bragg, passing via Murfreesboro and Nashville, Tennessee, and Bowling Green, Elizabethtown, and West Point, to Louisville, where it arrived on the 26th day of September,
1862. It left Louisville, and marching via 'Tay- lorsville, Bloomfield, Chaplin, and Maxville, ar- rived at the battle-field of Chaplin Hills on the 8th of October, 1862, and engaged in that severe conflict. It then moved via Danville and Stan- ford to Crab Orchard, where it turned back, and moving via Stanford, Lebanon, Bowling Green, and Nashville, arrived at the battle-field of Stone River on the 30th day of December, 1862, and took part in the five-days' fight at that place. On the morning of the 4th day of January, 1863, it marched through Murfreesboro, and en- camped until June 24, 1863, near that place. It then marched via Hoover's Gap, Manchester, and Hillsboro, to Decherd, Tennessee, where it remained about a month, and then marched via Stevenson, Raccoon, and Lookout Mountains, to the battle-field of Chickamauga, arriving on the 19th of September, 1863.
Participating in the battles of the 19th, 20th, and 21st of September, it covered the army as skirmishers, and moved to Chattanooga on the 22d of September, 1863, where it remained on post duty until the 2d of May, 1864, when it started on the Georgia campaign, which was one of continual fighting, skirmishing, and marching for four months, resulting in the capture of At- lanta, which was occupied by the United States troops on the 2d day of September, 1864.
The regiment was chiefly engaged in garrison duty and guarding railroads until it was ordered to Louisville, where it was mustered out on the 14th day of January, 1865 ; the recruits and veterans being transferred to the Second Kentucky Vete- ran cavalry.
A reference to the casualty list will show that this regiment bore an honorable part in the war, the number of killed exceeding fourteen per cent. of the entire force, and the number of wounded being in greater proportion.
It participated in the following, among other numerous battles in which loss was sustained, viz : Chaplin Hills, Kentucky ; Stone River, Tennessee; Chickamauga, Georgia; Mission Ridge, Resaca, Kenesaw Mountain, Allatoona Mountain, and all the skirmishes of the Atlanta campaign.
