HISTORY OF COLUMBIA COUNTY.
The regiment left Camp Curtin on November 27, and proceed- ed by Washington and Norfolk to Suffolk, Virginia. December 28, it proceeded to Newbern, North Carolina, and went into win- ter quarters. In March they repulsed Gen Hill who had appear- ed before Newbern. Hill moved towards Washington and erected breastworks at Hills point. The 171st was detailed to storm them, but were withdrawn. Subsequently it was in a dem- onstration towards Richmond, in favor of Meade at Gettysburg, and then took a position in a pass in the South Mountain which it held until the rebel retreat. It then marched to Frederick; thence to Harrisburg, where it was mustered out.
There may be other Columbia county men in this regiment, but I cannot distinguish them, and must rely upon those given for information as to names omitted. If they are furnished this record will become more and more perfect.

COLUMBIA COUNTY GUARDS.
The following is a list of the officers and privates of the "Col- umbia County Guards." They left Bloomsburg on the 8th of August, 1862, and were mustered into service August 13, 1862, and mustered out at Harrisburg, May 24, 1863. They were in the pursuit at the battle of South Mountain, in the battle of An- tietam, in the thick of the fight at Fredericksburg, and at Chan- cellorsville. The number of men lost in battle shows the closeness of the work. General Trench in an order issued by him, says- "Knowing the character of the one hundred and thirty-second Pennsylvania Volunteers, which has fought under my eye in two of the bloodiest engagements of the war, and which has the high- est encomiums from its brigade commander, General Kimball, who knows what brave men are," &c .. shows the high character of the whole command. All the men not otherwise accounted for, are to be considered as having been mustered out with the com- pany.
