HISTORY OF TOLEDO AND LUCAS COUNTY.
-
number wounded. January 1, 1863, the Third Cavalry bore an active part in escorting a train of 1,000 wagons from Franklin for Nashville, in doing which fierce contests occurred with Wheeler's Rebel Cavalry.
After the battle of Stone River, the Third Cavalry was sent in pursuit of the enemy, and near Middleton, Tennessee, attacked his rear- guard and captured one of his trains. While in camp at Murfreesboro, a detachment of the Third Battalion, while on a scout, under Lieu- tenant F. Bernard, was surrounded by Rebels, when they cut their way out, with slight loss, and taking with them a number of prisoners. About that time the Regiment was in affairs at Milton, Liberty, Readyville, Franklin, Snow Hill, Smithville, Auburn, Manchester and Mc- Minnville, suffering in men killed and wounded and loss of horses.
The Regiment bore an active part in the ad- vance of Rosecrans's Army from Murfreesboro, in July, 1863. During the battle of Chicka- mauga, it was at Lafayette, where it was at- tacked and forced back to Charleston, Tennes- see. After the battle, the Third Cavalry moved as the advance of General Crook's forces in pursuit of Wheeler's Cavalry, with which a handsome and successful fight took place at Farmington, the enemy being completely routed, with loss of large numbers in killed and captured. The Third Cavalry lost two men killed and 23 captured. In November, 1863, a portion of the Regiment, under Colonel Seidel, scouted through the mountains of East Ten- nessee. Another detachment, under Captain Richard D. Wood, was engaged about Dalton, Georgia, when Captain Wood was killed. About this time an incident occurred which illustrates both the character of the guerrilla warfare which the Union troops were called to meet and the spirit and manner in which it was met. The circumstances of the incident were given at the time, as follows :
Lieutenant-Colonel Howland was then Post Com- mander at Decherd, Tennessee. A band of about 50 guerrillas suddenly pounced on a Union man's store at Winchester, three miles West, completely empty- ing it of its contents, which afforded a handsome prize to them. As soon as word of the robbery was received at Decherd, a detail from the Third Cavalry was sent after the plunderers ; but in consequence of deceptive information given of the route taken by them, they escaped. Not long afterwards, a force, increased to 150, appeared in the neighborhood, when
Lieutenant-Colonel Howland sent Company A, Cap- tain Terry, and Company F. Captain George Williams, of Fremont, in pursuit of them. Coming in sight of them, the scamps, using spurs instead of weapons, incontinently fled. The race was a hard one, during which Captain Williams was thrown by his horse and disabled, but Captain Terry and 15 men soon over- took 60 of them, including Colonel Holman, the Rebel officer in command. The enemy made a stand to re- ceive their pursuers; on perceiving which Captain Terry called on his men to prepare for a sabre-charge, which was no sooner said than done, when the Rebel force of four times their number wheeled and ran, again pursued by the little band. It happened that Colonel Holman's more immediate pursuer was Ser- geant Paul Deal, of Fremont, and of Captain Wil- liams's Company. The race between these was long and earnest. The speed of their horses was very nearly equal, and although Deal got so near he could touch Holman, he could not get near enough to hit him a fair blow. While thus near, and both horses at their highest speed, the Rebel Colonel drew his revolver and turning around in his saddle fired three times at Deal, the latter each time parrying the weapon with his sabre so as to divert the shot and save himself from injury. Finally, Holman and several others of the band were captured and returned to Decherd. The Rebel leader was warm in his admi- ration of Sergeant Deal, pronouncing him the bravest and coolest man he had met, and insisting that his (Hol- man's) revolver should be presented to Deal and he be promoted. These suggestions were so just, that they were strictly carried out, and Sergeant Deal re- turned to Ohio with Holman's revolver, and on ar- riving at Columbus received a Lieutenant's commis- sion for his gallantry.
In Jannary, 1864, while at Pulaski, Tennessee, the Third Cavalry re-enlisted. Of the original 1,300, only 400 effective men were then left. On the 4th of February, it left Nashville for Ohio, reaching Camp Worcester, Monroeville, after an absence of two years. Of the Company which left Toledo, only 30 returned, many of them being on detached service when these left Nashville. Owing to a misunderstanding as to the time of their arrival at Toledo, the contem- plated reception of the Veterans did not take place ; but impromptu steps were taken by the Mayor ; a dinner was provided at the MeKenster House; a procession of citizens escorted the heroes to the hotel, where the dinner was partaken of.
March 2, 1864, its furlough having expired, the Third Cavalry re-assembled at Monrocville, with nearly 1,000 recruits secured for it, and making its total force over 1,500 men. Pro- ceeding again to the field, it was re-equipped

THE WAR OF THE REBELLION-FIELD WORK.
and went into camp at Columbia, Tennessee, with charge of the line of road from Nashville to Huntsville. About the 1st May, as part of Long's Second Brigade of Cavalry, at Decatur, and also at Courtland, Alabama, the Regiment was engaged with the Rebel General Roddey's command, which was routed, with the loss of a Lientenant-Colonel, a Major and upwards of 30 men killed and wounded. At Moulton, Ala- bama, the Regiment was attacked by the same force in camp before daylight ; and although partly surprised it rallied, drove the enemy from the field with slaughter, and pursued it, capturing 25 or 30 prisoners. At Rome, it was given position on the left flank of Sherman's Army, and participated in the engagements at Etowah, Kenesaw Mountain, Noonday Creek, and the crossing of the Chattahoochie River. Being sent to Roswell, Georgia, to destroy Rebel stores and factories, it there captured 400 fac- tory-girls, who were sent through the lines by General Sherman. At McAfee Bridge (or Shakerock), July 9th, four Companies of the Regiment, under command of Captain E. M. Colver, engaged a superior force of Texan Cavalry, killing a Lieutenant and seven men and capturing prisoners and horses. Subsequently the Regiment took part in the battles of Peach- tree Creek and Decatur, and in raids to Cov- ington and Stone Mountain. In the Kilpatrick raid, the Third Cavalry was with the Brigade in the advance to the rear of Atlanta, and destroyed a portion of the Railroad from Atlanta to West Point, losing thereby 48 men. It also took part in the Stoneman raid, under General Kenner Garrard. In each of these raids it suffered severely. In the flanking movement on Jonesboro, the Regiment was in Garrard's Division of Cavalry. After the occupation of Atlanta, it went into camp near Decatur, Georgia, and when Ilood's dash was made,
the Regiment was sent in pursuit as far as Gadson.
In the first battle of Franklin, the Regiment was on the left of Thomas's forces, and was engaged with the Rebel Cavalry. A portion of the Regiment was engaged in the battle before Nashville. After Hood's retreat, it fol- lowed him across the Tennessee into Alabama. It was then engaged in the Wilson raid through Alabama and Georgia; and in the battles of Selma and Montgomery, Alabama; and of Macon and Griffin, Georgia. In the capture of Selma, Captain Archibald J. Eyster, now of Toledo, was in command of the advance-guard. The Rebel defense consisted of 6,000 troops in- side fortifications, General Forrest being in command. The assault was made by 1,600 Union Cavalry under Colonel Long, command- ing the Division. Lieutenant-Colonel HI. N. Howland, of Third Ohio, commanded the Second Brigade. He subsequently was made Colonel and Brigadier General by brevet. The Regiment also took part in the chase after Jeff. Davis, in Wilson's command, in which pursuit a detach- ment went through to the Gulf. At Selma it lost heavily in killed and wonnded. Lieutenant D. C. Lewis and other officers were taken prison- ers. Lieutenant Lewis, afterwards paroled, was killed by the explosion of the boiler of the Steamer Sultana, near Memphis. At Macon, Georgia, while on duty, Captain J. S. Clock was murdered by one of the Fourth United States Cavalry.
Under orders from General Geo. H. Thomas, the Third Cavalry turned over its horses and arms at Macon, and was then ordered to report at Nashville for muster ont. Proceeding home via Louisville, the Regiment reached Camp Chase, where it was paid off and discharged August 14, 1865, after an active and efficient service of four years, lacking 20 days.

CHAPTER VIII.
THE ROLL OF HONOR - CEMETERIES.
IT was made the duty of the Assessors in May, 1865, when active service in the War bad practically closed, to canvass the several Town- ships and Wards for names of persons who had enlisted in the Union Army ; of those who had died; of those disabled ; of Soldiers' families ; and of such of these as were necessitous, with the number of persons in the same. The facts thus obtained were returned to the County Auditor's offiec. Following is a list of dead Soldiers thus obtained, together with a table giving results under the other heads named. In the nature of the case, absolute completeness or correctness could hardly be expected in such a work; but it has been deemed best to give the record thus furnished, as aiding to the nearest practicable approach to justice to the noble and heroic defenders of their country's life-only regretting that it is not more full and accurate.
As a matter of course, in the several partial lists of dead, given in this volume, the names of many are repeated ; but it has been deemed better to do this, than that names belonging here should be omitted. The repetitions will readily be discovered by those acquainted with the facts.
