TWENTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT UNITED STATES COLORED TROOPS.
Six companies of this regiment were organized at Indianapolis in April, 1864, as a part of the quota of the State, but were turned over to the United States as a battalion of the Twenty-eighth. It left the city April 24th, for Washington, and was placed in a camp of instruction at Alexan- dria, where it underwent a series of drills in preparation for active field service. On the 2d of June it embarked for White House, on the Yorktown peninsula, where it took part in an en- gagement on the 21st. With Sheridan's cavalry it had a toilsome and circuitous march through the Chickahominy swamps to Prince George's Court House, during which it sustained much loss from frequent skirmishing with the enemy. At the Court House it was assigned to Thomas' brigade, Fenero's division, Ninth army corps, and with it moved to the neighborhood of the Appomattox, where it took full part in the Pe- tersburg campaign. ¿ It was in the terrible battle of'"the Crater," and lost nearly half the number engaged. The shattered ranks were presently recruited, and four more companies were sent from Indiana, filling the regiment. At Hatcher's Run it was prominently engaged, and lost a large number. It was then transferred to the

Twenty-eighth corps, Army of the James, and put on duty in the quartermaster's department at City Point, where it remained until the final op- erations against Richmond. It was among the first Federal troops to occupy that city, was de- tained for three days at Camp Lee, and then sent to City Point again, to guard prisoners. It there staid until the corps was ordered to Texas, and arrived at Brazos Santiago July 1, 1865. It was disembarked at Indianola on the 5th, and was on duty at Corpus Christi until November 8th, when it was mustered out of service. It re- turned by New Orleans and Cairo to Indianap- olis, reaching there with thirty-three officers and nine hundred and fifty men. January 8th-Bat- tle of New Orleans day-a public reception was given the Twenty-eighth at the tabernacle, where speeches of welcome were made by Governor Baker and others, and responses by Lieutenant Colonel Logan, Chaplain White, and Lieutenant Holahan. The next day the regiment was dis- · charged from service.

This was recruited at Jeffersonville, organized at Indianapolis, December 20, 186r, and mus- tered in January 25, 1862. February 22d it pro- ceeded to Louisville, where it was temporarily assigned to General Thomas' division in Buell's army, and with it marched to Nashville, arriving on the 6th of March. On the 29th it advanced across the country with a detachment of Buell's command to Savannah, on the Tennessee; but did not reach Pittsburg Landing in time to take part in the action. Here Captain Sterling re- signed (April 25th), and was succeeded by Sec- ond Lieutenant White. In May and June the battery shared in the movement against Corinth, and after the evacuation of that place went with the Army of the Cumberland into Northern Ala- bama as far .east as Stephenson, and thence moved to Nashville, getting there August 18. It was here stationed in Fort Negley, in charge of the siege guns of the garrison, and remained there the rest of its term. November 5th the city was attacked by the united forces of Breck- enridge, Forrest, and Morgan; and the men of the Twelfth, handling skilfully the guns of the fort, rendered important service in repelling the

attack. After Chickamauga was fought, half of the battery, under Lieutenant Dunwoody, was sent to Chattanooga, and arrived in time to share in the victories of Lookout Mountain and Mis- sion Ridge, after which it returned to Nashville. Forty-eight men of the battery re-enlisted in Jan- uary, 1864. The service of this year was com- paratively uneventful, except on the 15th and 16th of December, during the battle before Nash- ville, when it was actively engaged. Thirty non- veterans were mustered out December 23d, at the expiration of their term. January 5, 1865, Cap- tain White resigned, and Lieutenant Dunwoody was commissioned to his place March Ist. The battery was kept well recruited, and had more men at the end of its service than were properly allowed to light batteries. July 1, 1865, it reached Indianapolis for muster out and dis- charge, with five officers and one hundred and seventy men, and was relieved from further duty on the 7th of that month.
