Immediately upon the return of the Regi- ment, measures were taken for the enlistment for three years of such of its members as saw fit to " veteranize," and on the 25th Septem- ber it again left for the field, via Cincinnati. The day before its departure, a picnic was held at Camp Oliver, out Cherry Street, when 5,000 to 6,000 people were on the ground, the Soldiers' tables being abundantly supplied by the ladies of Toledo. Crossing the Ohio to Cov- ington, Ky., it took cars for Lexington and Frankfort. On the way the train was as- saulted with stones, which broke windows and injured a few of the men. Two of the offend- ers were arrested, one of which in passing along the streets of Frankfort as prisoner, drew a large knife across his throat, which did not prove fatal. The incident shows something of the spirit of disloyalty then in the Sonth. From Frankfort the Regiment moved by cars to Nicholasville, where three weeks were spent in drill. The next stop- ping place was Camp Dick Robinson, which was reached October 2d. At this point, it is said a Regiment of loyal East Tennesseeans arrived, but to do so, the men were compelled to crawl on all-fours through the Rebel lines. With these were Andrew Johnson, United States Senator, and Horace Maynard, Con- gressman, from Tennessee, on their way to Washington. The former of these spent some time as a guest of the Fourteenth.
While the Regiment was at Camp Dick Robinson, word came that a Union force at or near Wild Cat, a desolate locality some 60 miles to the Southward, were surrounded by Rebels. With Barnet's First Ohio Artil- lery, the Fourteenth started for that point, on forced march, through mud and rain, ar- riving at 9 A. M. October 21st. Approaching they heard the sound of artillery and mus- ketry, when amid great excitement they rushed to the point of attack. It was found that tive Companies of the Thirty . Third Iu-

THE WAR OF THE REBELLION-FIELD WORK.
diana, on a wild knoll, were almost surrounded by Rebels. Under cover of a brisk fire by Barnet's Battery two Companies of the Four- teenth, with shovels and picks, crawled through the bushes over a ravine, to the knob which they soon fortified so effectually, that the enemy abandoned the siege, and retreated toward London, Ky., leaving about 30 of kill- ed and wounded. The Union forces pursued the Rebels, who were commanded by General Zollicoffer, a prominent politician of Kentucky, to a point near London, where the Union troops went into camp for two weeks, when they proceeded to Lebanon, via Crab Orchard and Lebanon, and there went into winter quarters.
December 31st the Camp at Lebanon was broken up and the march resumed, taking the route toward Somerset or Mill Springs. Zol- licoffer's force was met at Logan's Cross-Roads and defeated, in which action but one Company (C, Captain J. W. Brown of Toledo) partici- pated. The Union troops pursued the Rebels, and drove them into their fortifications at Mill Springs. The night of January 19th was spent in cannonading the enemy's works, pre- paratory to the assault which followed early the next morning, whereby the Rebels were overwhelmed, with the loss of one Regiment captured, 20 pieces of Artillery, and their en- tire camp equipage. The main body of the enemy escaped across the Cumberland River, burning their Steamer as they left. The Four- teenth led the assault on the Rebel works, and was the first to enter; as it also led in the pursuit of the flying enemy. This movement was among the most important, as it was among the most brilliant of the War to that period ; and as such it did much toward bring- ing the Fourteenth Ohio into honorable recog- nition.
The Union forces remained at Mill Springs till February 11th ; when, with five days' rations, the line of march was resumed for Louisville, where they arrived on the 26th. Thence, with 20,000 other troops, it left by steamer for Nashville, which was reached March 4th. Here they remained until the 20th, the meantime being employed in build- ing fortifications, and perfecting the drill of the men. At the date named, with General Buell as Commander, they left for the relief of Grant at Pittsburg Landing, where they 9
arrived April 7th. A portion of the com- mand participated in the desperate fight which turned the tide against the enemy ; but the Fourteenth was not there in time to take part in the battle, much to the disappoint- ment of officers and men.
The Regiment started on the night of the 12th April on an expedition to Chickasaw Landing, near which five bridges were de- stroyed, amid severe skirmishes, whereby the enemy failed of expected re-enforcements. Thence the Regiment returned by steamer to Pittsburg Landing. On board was General W. T. Sherman, who publiely thanked the men for the service they had rendered. Re- joining its Brigade, the Fourteenth consti- tuted a portion of the large command under General Buell, on its march to Corinth. The only death in the Regiment during the siege, was that of Frank Callern, Fifer, of heart disease.
June 23, 1862, the Fourteenth, with other troops, was sent to Iuka, Mississippi, whence it marched to Tusenmbia, Alabama. After the performance of different kinds of service in that vicinity, it took the line of march toward Nashville, Tennessee. On the way, and near Waynesburg, Tennessee, General Robert L. McCook was murdered by guer- rillas. September 7th Nashville was reached. On the 14th marching orders for Bowling Green, Kentucky, were received, the ob- ject being the pursuit of Bragg's Rebel com- mand, then moving on Louisville, which point was reached on the 26th. On this march the Fourteenth was under command of Major Panl Edwards, Colonel Steedman having been assigned to General R. L. McCook's late com- mand, and Lieutenant Colonel Este being absent on furlough. This march, owing to extreme heat and dry and dusty roads, was very severe on the men.
October 1, 1862, General Buell's Army left Louisville, in pursuit of Bragg, the Four- teenth being in the advance. Bardstown was reached on the 3d. On the 9th the Brigade was detailed as headquarters and ammunition train-guard, and they were permitted to take part in the battle of Perryville on that day. Continuing the pursuit of Bragg, Buell marched through Danville and Crab Or- chard, where the movement was abandoned, and the forces turned their faces toward

Nashville. At Gallatin the Brigade, em- bracing the Fourteenth, went into winter quarters November 15th. While there the Regiment was repeatedly detailed for scout- ing duty against guerrilla (John Morgan's) Cavalry, with which several skirmishes were had, involving the loss of some men. Morgan was badly whipped at Rolling Fork, whereby a raid on Louisville was believed to have been prevented. January 13, 1863, the Regi- ment left Gallatin and arrived at Louisville the 15th. On the 17th the Regiment marched for Murfreesboro, as guard to an ammunition train, and returned to Lavergne, where the Brigade was engaged in fortifying against the enemy.
June 3, 1863, the Fourteenth and Brigade left Lavergne for Triune, Tennessee, as a portion of General Rosecrans' advance on Tullahoma and Chattanooga. Twenty days were consumed at Triune in rigid drill, while awaiting the arrival of necessary supplies. Hoover's Gap was reached on the night of June 26th, where the Brigade participated in a brisk engagement, losing 30 men in killed and wounded. On the 28th the vicinity of Tul- lahoma was reached. That night Captain Neubert's picket detail of the Fourteenth drove in the enemy's line of pickets, whereby he was enabled to get so near the Town as to discover that the enemy were evacuating the place, which information led to the advance of the Union force early the next morning. Elk River was crossed with great difficulty, that stream being quite deep, with a swift current, causing the drowning of several men. The command reached Sequatchie Valley, near Sweden Cove, August 18th. On the 31st the Army crossed the Tennessee River by means of rafts, pontoons not being at hand. On the 19th the enemy were discovered in force on Chickamauga Creek, when the Fourteenth, under Lieutenant Colonel Kings- bury, was immediately deployed in line of battle, and were in hot and close contest with the enemy from 9 A. M. until 4 P. M., when, being relieved it replenished its ammunition and again entered the fight, which was con- tinued until sundown. All this with the men badly exhausted by the arduous march they had just made, but they were ready and cheerful in duty, despite such untoward con- dition. The following morning at 9 o'clock,
the Regiment had a desperate encounter with a portion of Longstreet's Rebel Division. In consequence of a gap in General Thomas's line, the whole Union force was compelled to fall back to avoid severe defeat. It stopped at Rossville.
September 21, 1863, the Fourteenth with its Brigade and Division, was all day in line of battle, but were again forced to fall back near to Chattanooga, the enemy closely fol- lowing. The Regiment went into battle with 499 men, of which it lost 233 killed, wounded and missing-14 enlisted men being captured by the enemy. Of 14 officers in the engage- ment eight were severely wounded, including Captains Albert Moore, Company A; H. W. Bigelow, Company I; Dan Pomeroy, Com- pany D; W. B. Pugh, Company H ; J. J. Clarke, Company C; and Lieutenant James E. McBride, Company F. Colonel Croxton, of Tenth Kentucky, commanding the Brigade, was severely wounded.
During the ensuing beleaguerment at Chat- tanooga, a detail of 100 men of the Fourteenth, under Captain Neubert, was sent to Steven- son, Alabama, to procure rations, crossing the rugged mountains for such purpose. The force set out on a march of 11 days with but one day's rations. The service was very se- vere, and after subsisting on parched corn, leaving more than half their wagons and 20 dead mules on the road, the detail reached Stevenson. Ten of the 60 wagons with which they started out, were loaded with " hard- tack," and the return journey commenced. November 9th, and at the end of 25 days' absence, the detail reached Chattanooga, where its precious supplies were gladly wel- comed by their famished comrades.
The Fourteenth bore a gallant part in the memorable assault on Mission Ridge, charging a Rebel Battery of three guns, under personal direction of General Hardee, losing 16 killed, 91 wounded, and three missing.
The Union forces started November 26, 1863, in pursuit of the Rebel Army toward Ringgold, where the enemy made a stand. General Hooker's forces, being in advance, made a charge on the Rebels, but were re- pulsed. The Fourteenth Corps then came up and forming in line of battle, charged the Rebel position ; but the enemy had fled toward Buzzard's Roost. The Fourteenth Ohio on

the 29th November, returned to Chattanooga, where it was reviewed by General Grant December 1, 1863.
The Three-Years' enlistment of the Four- teenth having expired, all but 30 eligible men of the Regiment re-enlisted for a second like term on the 17th December, 1863. Christmas- day was spent most actively in mustering in the men, and by hard work the rolls were completed that night. The Regiment left for Bridgeport on the 31st December, where it took cars for Nashville, arriving there Janu- ary 2, 1864. This trip was made during the extraordinarily sudden and extreme change in the temperature on the night of the 31st De- cember, which, though most severe at the North, was not there near as distressing as at the South, and especially with the soldiers un- provided with requisite clothing. On the trip to Nashville the feet of several colored ser- vants belonging to the Regiment were so badly frozen as to require amputation.
From Nashville the Fourteenth, by cars, went to Louisville, and thence by boat to Cin- cinnati, arriving there January 4th. From that city it came to Toledo, arriving there January 5th. It was met at the Railway depot by a large concourse of citizens, and wel- comed home in a speech by M. R. Waite, Esq., when they marched down Summit street to Adams, whence they returned to the Island House for dinner. The field officers at that time were: George P. Este, Colonel; H. D. Kingsbury, Lieutenant-Colonel ; J. W. Wil- son, Major; Joseph B. Newton, Adjutant ; Dr. George E. Sloat, Surgeon ; Dr. Charles A. Ames, Assistant Surgeon ; John W. Beecher, Quartermaster; Quartermaster's Sergeant, A. J. Morse; Commissary Sergeant, David Bow - ker; Musicians, Nathaniel G. Pierce and Henry Weitzel. The Regiment left 110 wounded and 38 sick in hospital at Chat- tanooga, Nashville, Louisville and Cin- cinnati. Sixty-six members did not re-enlist ; out of these 24 were rejected, largely from disabilities arising from wounds. Every wounded man having an opportunity, re- enlisted.
The officers and privates of the Fourteenth Ohio in December, 1864, contributed the sum of $210 for the benefit of the family of Private Peter W. Disbrow, Co. C, of that Regiment, who was killed in the trenches near Atlanta,
August 7th. Captain H. G. Neubert for- warded the amount to the widow.
At the expiration of its 30-days' furlough, the Fourteenth left Toledo (February 6, 1864) for Cleveland, and there went into camp, remaining about a week, when it started for Cincinnati and the field, reaching Nash- ville February 23d, and Chattanooga the 29th. March 5th the Regiment moved to Ringgold, where it had severe duty-the construction of corduroy roads, pickets, outposts, etc., between that place and Chattanooga. May 9th, with its Brigade, it moved on Dalton, driving the enemy's videttes to the vicinity of Tunnel Hill, where the enemy in force was encoun- tered. Here began the protracted and ex- hausting march of the Union forces for At- lanta, in which the Fourteenth bore its full share of fatigue and privation, as well as of frequent and severe skirmishing. It lost heav- ily in both officers and men. At Atlanta the Regiment lost 20 men in killed and wounded.
August 26, 1864, commenced a flanking movement in the direction of Jonesboro, which reached the Atlanta and Western Rail- road, five miles from that point, on the 31st, where 200 prisoners were captured. The next day the Third Division of the Fourteenth Army Corps, in which was brigaded the Four- teenth, continued the advance, destroying the railroad track as it progressed. At 4.30 p. M. the Third Division (General Baird in command) confronted the enemy's works abont Jones- boro. Third Brigade, in command of Colonel Este, of the Fourteenth Ohio, was drawn up in immediate rear of a regular Brigade of General Carlin's Division, which had just made an unsuccessful charge on the Rebel works in the edge of the woods on the opposite side of a large cornfield. Colonel Este's Brigade (em- bracing the Fourteenth and Thirty-Eighth Ohio, Tenth Kentucky and Seventy-Fourth In- diana) was ready for action, when its com- mander gave the order, " Battalions forward ! Guide center ! " General Baird at the same time waving bis hand for the " forward." Amid an intense shower of rebel balls the lines moved forward. Soon a battery of grape and cannister opened, but the Brigade did not hesitate. The edge of the timber was gained, when, amid cheers and yells, the charge was made, the enemy's works gained, and a hand- to-hand conflict ensued. The Rebel force (of
132
HISTORY OF TOLEDO AND LUCAS COUNTY.
General Pat Cleburne's Division) contested the ground inch by inch, and surrendered only after many had been killed in the desperate fight. The Fourteenth took as many prisoners as its own force numbered, together with a battery of four guns, several stands of colors and two lines of trenches full of men. This substantial success was not won except at heavy cost. The Third Brigade lost one-third of its number. In the ranks of the Four- teenth Ohio were 100 brave men whose term of enlistment had expired, but who willingly volunteered for the desperate struggle in which some of them gave up their lives for their country. Stronger or nobler proof of patriot- ism or heroism could not be furnished. The names of men capable of such patriotic devo- tion should not be forgotten.
The Third Brigade did not join in the pur- suit of the enemy from Jonesboro. The Four- teenth Ohio followed in pursuit of Hood's troops, on their advance into Tennessee, as far as Rome, Ga., when, the chase being aban- doned, the Brigade returned to Kingston, Ga., on the 6th November. Joining Gen. Sher- man's forces at Atlanta, the Regiment partici. pated in the " March to the Sea," and through the Carolinas to Goldsboro and Raleigh.
At Raleigh was promulgated to the Union forces the glorious news of the surrender of Lee and the Rebel Army near Richmond, as- suring the collapse of the Rebellion. Soon came like tidings of General Johnston. Noth- ing more being left of field service, the Four- teenth and its heroic associates started for Washington, where it joined the Grand Armies of the Union in the review before the Presi- dent and his Cabinet.
June 15, 1865, the Fourteenth Ohio left Washington by rail for Parkersburg, Va., ar- riving there the 18th. Thence by boats it proceeded to Louisville, Ky., where it was in camp until July 11th, when, having been mus- tered out, it left for home, reaching Cleveland, Ohio, July 14, 1865.
At Cleveland the Regiment was received with special manifestations of enthusiasm. Arriving at the Park, a welcoming address was delivered in behalf of the citizens by Rev. Dr. Goodrich, of the First Presbyterian
Church, in the course of which the eloquent speaker said :
We bless the day which has brought you home. The country now needs just such citizens as you have been soldiers. We know your services, how in the very dawn of the conflict you won an honorable name, and in the first campaign in West Virginia struek blows which forever after kept back from our own borders the invading hosts.
We remember Carrick's Ford, where the day was won by a single charge of the Fourteenth Ohio, and we know the long course of toil and conflict and vie- tory in which you have borne your part with the bravest, and whose record is on your banners. And we remember that it was because you thus stood in the brunt of battle that we have dwelt in undis- turbed security, and possess all these liberties un- touched. We have lain down in peace and slept be- cause you were resting only on your arms, or pacing the weary round of the sentinel. We have gathered in these sanctuaries on the Sabbath and enjoyed the consolations of a Christian worship, because you, knowing no day of rest, have marched or fought or waited the assault, as the God of Hosts appointed to you. All these peaceful industries have been ours ; these schools, these courts of law, unbroken in their course of usefulness, because you stood a serried rampart between us and anarchy.
This has been your glorious work, and for it all we give you this day our public tribute of gratitude. In ohl Rome, when peril came to the Commonwealth, the resort was always to a Dictator. One man, the strongest and ablest, was found, and to him it was given solemnly in charge that the Republic should receive no detriment. But we are not saved by one man. Our hope in the great emergency did not, would not, turn to any single soul, however great. It was to you we looked to save the Nation. To yon, the volunteers of our Army, who stood forth, the land over, to defend the country, to all of you we gave the Republic in keeping. And your work is done- a greater work than you or we yet know. Genera- tions must pass before the true history of this war can be written, or the worth of your labor reckoned up.
In the name of your fellow-citizens, I thank you and bid you welcome. As a Minister of Religion, I thank you for your defense of Christian justice, and your maintenance of Christian institutions. God be with you evermore. God bless you all.
The Regiment was paid off at Cleveland and disbanded, a large portion of its members reaching Toledo July 21st. Although no for- mal demonstration was made on the occasion, the veterans were received amid warm ex- pressions of admiration and thanksgiving by their families and citizens generally.
