NINETY-FIRST REGIMENT (INFANTRY),


raised in the First Congressional district in August, 1862-only seven companies-which were mustered in October Ist. The battalion did guard duty at Madisonville and Smithland, Kentucky, till June 15, 1863, when it went in pursuit of John Morgan. It then camped at Russellville. The same summer the regiment was filled up by the addition of three companies of six months' men, of which company K was one. Its subsequent service was mainly with Sherman in Georgia. It was engaged near Cumberland Gap, February 2, 1864; at Pine Mountain, New Hope Church, Kenesaw, Decatur, Peach-tree Creek, the right of Atlanta, and Utoy Creek, in the Atlanta campaign. It was in the pursuit of Hood and the battles of Franklin and Nashville. Transferred to North Carolina, it aided in the cap- ture of Wilmington, and moved to Goldsboro and Raleigh. At Salisbury, North Carolina, it was mustered out June 26, 1865, and started for Indianapolis, where it had an enthusiastic public welcome. It had lost eighty-one killed and wounded, and returned with nineteen officers and three hundred and fifteen men, its recruits having been transferred to other regiments. In the winter of 1864, the three companies of six months' men, upon the expiration of their term, were replaced by three of one-year recruits, form- ing new companies H, Į, and K.

THE ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEENTH REGI- MENT


was recruited for six months' service in July and August, 1863, and mustered in at Indianapolis September 17th. It was sent to Kentucky, join- ing a brigade of six months Indiana troops, and marching thence in October to East Tennessee. Near Greenville it remained until November. On the 14th it was in imminent danger of cap- ture at Church Mountain Gap, but escaped by leaving all baggage and making a forced march to Bean's Station. It was then in garrison at Cumberland Gap, Strawberry Plains, and May- nardsville until near the end of its term. "The winter campaign of the six months men in East Tennessee," says the Report, "for hardships and real suffering was perhaps more severe than that of any other winter campaign of the war. The One Hundred and Seventeenth suffered its share of these privations, marching over mountains, crossing streams, and enduring the severest ex- posure without shoes, and at times living upon quarter rations." The regiment was discharged at Indianapolis about the middle of February, 1 864.

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIRST REGIMENT (THIRTEENTH CAVALRY).


This was the last cavalry command raised in Indiana. Recruiting for it was begun in Sep- tember, r863, and continued till April 29, 1864, when it was mustered into service at Indian- apolis. It left the next day for Nashville, and joined a camp of instruction there till May 31st, when it was sent to garrison duty at Huntsville Here it was in several skirmishes and on the Ist of October held its position against the en- tire force of General Buford. October 16th companies A, C, D, F, H, and I, started for Louisville, whence they were ordered to Pa- ducah. In November they moved from Louis- ville to Nashville, and were presently in the bat- tles of Overall's Creek and Wilkinson's Pike, and in twelve skirmishes, with an aggregate loss of 67 out of 325. The other companies served as infantry in the battle of Nashville, after which the regiment was united, and assigned to the Second brigade, Seventh division of the Cav- alry corps. February 11, 1865, it started on transports down the Mississippi, and disem- barked finally at Mobile Bay, where it reported to General Canby and assisted in the operations against the forts and defenses of Mobile, also running a courier line to Florida. April 17th, after the fall of Mobile, it started on the long Grierson raid through Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, reaching Columbus, in the last- named State, May 22d. The regiment then did garrison duty at Macon and on the railroad till June 6th, when it returned to Columbus, and staid till late in the fall, when it moved to Vicks- burg, and was there mustered out November 18, 1865. A week afterwards it was handsomely received at Indianapolis, returning with 23 offi- cers and 633 men.
