The 7Ist Ohio was recruited mainly in the counties of Au- glaize, Mercer and Miami, under the superintendence of B. S. Kyle, of Troy, and G. W. Andrews, of Wapakoneta. Recruits began to rendezvous at Troy in the latter part of October, 1861, and about the first of February, 1862, the organization was com- pleted. Rodney Mason, of Springfield, Ohio, was appointed Colonel, George W. Andrews Lieutenant-Colonel, and Barton S. Kyle, Major. The regiment received marching orders on the 10th of February, and four days later encamped at Paducah. On the 25th, the regiment moved to Columbus, and found that the enemy had evacuated the place. It then returned to Paducah to advance up the Tennessee river. The regiment landed at Pittsburg Land- ing and participated in the engagements at that point. In the engagements the regiment lost one hundred and thirty men in killed and wounded. On the 18th of April the regiment was ordered to the Cumberland river to hold the posts of Fort Donald- son and Clarksville. Sunday, August 17th, the regiment made an attack on the confederate garrison at Clarksville, when they met with a repulse and owing to the superior force of the enemy were compelled to surrender. The surrender was censured by the superior authorities and the line officers were dismissed, and Colonel Mason was cashiered. Whitelaw Reid, in his "Ohio in

AND AUGLAIZE COUNTY
the War," says that "after the facts connected with the surrender became fully known, the War Department finally revoked the order, and the officers were all honorably discharged."
After the regiment was exchanged, four companies, on the 25th of August, 1862, engaged and defeated Woodward's force at Fort Donaldson. On the 3d of February, 1863, the regiment was sent on an expedition against the combined forces of Wheeler and Forrest, but the enemy retired and the Seventy-first was not brought into action. During the latter part of 1863, the regiment was stationed along the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, with headquarters at Gallatin, and was actively engaged in dispersing guerrillas.
In 1864 the regiment moved south, and took an active and effective part in the battle of Nashville, displaying great bravery and courage, and losing one-third of its number in killed and wounded.
The regiment, decimated as it was, still retained its zeal and energy, and shortly after the battle was ordered to Texas, where it remained through the summer of 1865. Late in that year the regiment was ordered to return to Camp Chase, where it was mustered out and discharged in January, 1866.
The 99th Ohio Volunteer Infantry was organized at Camp Lima, Allen county, Ohio, and was mustered into service on the 26th of August, 1862. It was composed of two companies from Allen county, two from Shelby, two from Hancock, and one each from Auglaize, Mercer, Putnam, and Van Wert. Seventeen hun- dred men were recruited for the regiment, but seven hundred were transferred to the One Hundred and Eighteenth Ohio. The regiment left Lima on the 3Ist of August, and proceeded as far as Paris, Kentucky, where they were ordered back to Cynthiana. After moving about from place to place for a few weeks the regi- ment returned to Covington. On the 17th of September it em- barked on steamers for Louisville and encamped on the Indiana side of the river. After moving from place to place covering a period of several weeks the regiment encamped at Silver Springs, where it remained until the 26th of December. On that date the regiment received orders to advance toward Murfreesboro. Dur-

ing the march it was under the fire of the Rebel artillery, but it sustained no loss.
The official list of battles in which this regiment bore an honor- able part is as follows :
Stone River, Tennessee, December 31, 1862 to January 2, 1863. Chickamauga, Georgia, September 19-20, 1863.
Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, November 24, 1863.

Jonesboro, Georgia, August 31 to September 1, 1864.
Lovejoy Station, Georgia, September 2-6, 1864.
Nashville, Tennessee, December 15-16, 1864.
After pursuing Hood as far as Columbia, the remnant of the Ninty-ninth regiment was consolidated with the Fifth Ohio and thereby ceased to be an organization.
The 118th Ohio Volunteer Infantry went into camp at Lima, Ohio, in August, 1862, and in September was sent to Cincinnati, then threatened by Kirby Smith. In the latter part of September it moved under General A. J. Smith toward Lexington, Kentucky. and at Cynthiana was detached to guard the railroad. On the 8th of August, 1863, it proceeded to Lebanon, Kentucky, and on the 20th set out on the march for East Tennessee. This march over the mountains occupied seventeen days and was very severe, the men suffering greatly from dust and heat. On the 10th of November it reached Kingston, and a few days after the Rebels cut the communication between that point and Knoxville. The picket duty became very heavy, in order to prevent surprise from Wheeler's cavalry. The victories at Knoxville and Chattanooga relieved the garrison at Kingston, and on the 9th of December the regiment reached Nashville, and moved from there to Blaine's Cross Roads, and from there to Mossy Creek to support Elliott's cavalry.

Soon after the news of the attack on Fort Sumter reached the county the work of enlisting men and the organization of com- panies was commenced. Recruiting officers from Camps Vance, Cleveland, Chase, Troy and Lima opened offices in different locali- ties in the county and by the fall of 1865 recruited over eleven hundred men. During those years the war was the all-absorbing subject of thought and conversation. The following from the Auglaize Democrat of April 22, 1861, exhibits the war feeling at the time :
THE UNION FOREVER.
AUGLAIZE RESPONDS.
"Our usually quiet village presents quite a warlike appearance. On Saturday last notice was given that a meeting would be held on Monday evening (April 22), for the purpose of raising a company of volunteers. Early Monday morning the cannon began to boom, and by ten o'clock our town was one solid mass of people. Court being in session, Judge Metcalf, after opening - made a patriotic speech - and adjourned until May 22. The crowd then pro- ceeded to the Depot and gave the Lima company, who passed through, a parting salute.
"In the evening the meeting was held at the court house, and speeches were made by Messrs. Andrews, Walkup, Craig, and others, and the call was then made for volunteers. The call was nobly responded to - some sixty coming forward and signing the roll and taking the oath.

HISTORY OF WESTERN OHIO
"Auglaize is nobly responding to the call for volunteers. She is turning out the best of her sons - men who will stand by the flag of their country to the last. They are men who we look upon with pride."
In April, 1861, Thomas K. Jacobs, a member of the State Legislature from Allen county, introduced a bill to provide a fund for the support of soldiers' families, by authorizing the county commissioners to levy a tax of half a mill. On April 23, Repre- sentative Jesse Baldwin, of Mahoning county, introduced a more elaborate bill, which was accepted. It embraced the principal features of the Jacobs bill. Under the provision of this bill $31,800 was collected and paid to the families of soldiers in the service.
In June, 1861, a levy of half a mill on the taxable property of the county was placed upon the duplicate, to meet the necessary relief expenditures - the commissioners, in the meantime, bor- rowed from the banks a sufficient amount of money to last until the tax collections could be made.
On the Commissioners' Journal of June 18th, 1861, we find the following record :
"The Board this day appointed A. H. Trimble and M. W. Smith a central committee for the county to receive reports, and to disburse funds to the different township committees, appro- priated for the relief of families of volunteers.
"The Board also appointed the following township com- mittees :
Salem township, A. J. Pickerell.
Noble township, Nicholas Brewer.
St. Marys township, A. H. Dieker. German township, Christian Smith. Jackson township, J. P. Schmeider Logan township, Russel Berryman Moulton township, N. A. Murdock. Washington township, Jesse Roberts. Duchouquet township, J. B. Craig. Pusheta township, Lawrence Sametinger.
Clay township, Arthur Bitler. Wayne township, Harris Wells.
Goshen township, Sampson Buffenberger.
"The County Central Committee were further ordered to ap-
537

portion the relief funds to the different townships, proportionate to the number of families in each requiring aid."
Since the close of the war there has been a relief tax collected and apportioned to the families of soldiers who served in the Civil War, amounting, in the aggregate, to $37,800, or about $1,050 per year.
