NINETY-FOURTH O. V. I.


This Company was organized at Camp Piqua, Miami County. Ohio, under the im- mediate supervision of Col. Joseph W. Frizell. The officers were appointed on the 22d of July, 1872, and. so vigorously was the recruiting prosecuted, that in just one month 1,010 men were mustered into the United States service.


On the 28th of August, without uniforms or camp equipage, and never having been drilled as a regiment, it was ordered to Ken- tucky to resist the approaching columns of Kirby Smith. The colors of the Ninety- fourth are emblazoned with the battle names of Hoover's Gap, Dug Gap, Lookout Mount- ain, Mission Ridge, Sherman's march to Atlanta, Buzzard's Roost, Resaca, Kingston. Pumpkin-Vine Creek, Kenesaw Mountain. and some half a dozen others. It was the first body of troops to enter Raleigh, N. C .. was in the grand review at Washington, where it was mustered out on the 6th of June, 1865, with an aggregate of 338 men, " All that were left of them, left of" one thousand and ten.


Clark County contributed Companies A and G of this regiment. Col. David King went out as Major of this corps, and was promoted Lieutenant Colonel.

HISTORY OF CLARK COUNTY.


FORTY-FIFTH OHIO VOLUNTEER INFANTRY.


The Forty-fifth O. V. I. was inustered into service on the 19th of August, 1862. It was first engaged at Dutton's Hill. March 3, 1863, next at "Captain West's." It was one of the regiments sent up from the front to help capture John Morgan. During this movement, the Forty-fifth lost one man, with several wounded. At Philadelphia. Tenn., several were killed and wounded, and many captured by the enemy. In Knox- ville, at Bear's Station. Resaca, in many of the actions which marked the Atlanta cam- paign : at. Lovejoy's Station. New Hope Church, Dallas. Lost Mountain, in front of Kenesaw Mountain, and many other points, the Forty-fifth upheld the standard of the nation, and each man made good the oath that he had taken at the outset. "against all their enemies whatsoever." In November, 1864, the Fourth Corps, to which the regi- ment belonged, participated in the battle of Franklin, and afterward in the two days' fight in front of Nashville. The regiment was mustered out on the 15th of June, 1865, within two months of the expiration of its term of service.


-


front of Cincinnati, which. at that time, was in a comparatively unprotected con- dition. Immediate preparations were be- gun for the proper reception of the attack ing force. Business was suspended, and the city placed under the strict requirements of martial law. Every one was armed with something, and assigned to duty, either in the ranks of the militia, or in the gangs of laborers on the earthworks. Gov. Tod called upon the citizens of the State to rally to the defense of its Southern border, and the " Squirrel Hunters came by thousands." The command of the city and environs was given to Maj. Gen. Lew Wallace, who, upon taking his leave of the district. after the threatened danger had been averted, issued the address from which this quotation is made : "You were appealed to. The an- swer will never be forgotten. Paris may have seen something like it in her revo- lutionary days, bat the cities of America never did." The Legislature passed a reso- lution of thanks, and authorized the isine of a finely executed lithographie discharge certificate to every one of the minute-men who rushed to the rescue.


Clark County furnished a great number of men during this short call. As little effort was made to keep any record of the im- promptu organizations, the only data to be had is from the mouths of those who partici- pated in the movement, and an occasional scrap from some private note book. From one of the latter. in possession of W. J. Irving. the following roll is taken :

THE COLORS OF THE ONE HUNDRED AND TENTH.


After its organization, and before the regi- ment left Ohio for the front, the ladies of the city of Piqua presented to the regiment a beautiful stand of colors. On receiving them from the bands of the ladies, the regi- ment gave a pledge that they should never be dishonored while in their keeping. Nobly was that pledge kept. For three long. eventful years, in camp, on the toilsome march, on the field of mortal combat, midst the smoke and thunder of more than twenty battles, the colors of the One Hundred and Tenth were never dishonored by desertion of their defenders, or the touch of an enemy's hand. The stand of colors pre- seuted by the ladies were carried from 1862 up to the spring of 1864, when the colors. or battle-flag, torn and battle-stained. Was by a vote of the regiment presented to Gen. J. Warren Keifer. The banner received from the ladies, and the new flag obtained in 1864, were carried to the close of the war. The colors of the One Hundred and Tenth were carried on the fields of Winchester. June 13, 14 and 15, 1863. Wapping Heights Kelly's Ford. Brandy Station, Locust Grove, Mine Run, Wilderness. Spotsylvania. Gaines' Mills, Cold Harbor, Bermuda Hun- dred, Petersburg. June 22, 1864. Monocacy. Charlestown. Sinithield, Winchester. 1864. Flint Hill, Fisher's Hill. Cedar Creek, Peters burg. March 25, 1885. Petersburg. April 2. 1865, Sailors' Creek and Appomattox.


Twice the colors of the One Hundred and Tenth fell from the hands of its slain de- fenders. Three times was its staff pierced by the enemy's bullets, and sixty balls passed through its folds, but no enemy's hand over dishonored or detiled it by a touch. It waved in triumph over the glori , ous fields of Cedar Creek, Richmond and
