Upon its return to camp it was ascertained that Lee had invaded Pennsylvania, and though its term of service was about to expire, by the unanimous vote of the men, by compa- nies, their further services were tendered to Governor Curtin as long as he should need them for the defense of the State. This offer was accepted ; but by the time the regiment had reached Washington, en route to the front, the rebel army had retreated to Virginia. It was, accordingly, ordered to Harrisburg, where, on the 27th of July, it was mustered out of ser- vice.

EMERGENCY TROOPS OF 1863.
The triumph of the rebel army at Fredericks- burg in December, 1862, and its success at Chan- cellorsville in May, 1863, emboldened its leader to again plan an invasion of the North. As a precautionary measure, two new military depart- ments were established by order of the War De- partment on June 9, 1863-the one called Mo- nongahela, comprising the western part of Penn- sylvania and parts of Virginia and Ohio, with headquarters at Pittsburgh ; and the other called Susquehanna, comprising the remaining portion of Pennsylvania, with headquarters at Harris- burg. And to aid in this work, Governor Cur- tin issued a proclamation on June 12, 1863, in- viting the attention of the people to this matter, and urging upon them the importance of raising a sufficient force to defend the State. It becom- ing daily more evident that the enemy intended to cross the Potomac in force, the President on June 15th called for one hundred thousand men from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia, to serve for a period of six montlis, unless sooner discharged ; and of this number Pennsylvania was to furnish fifty thousand. Governor Curtin then issued a proclamation calling upon all men capable of bearing arms to enroll themselves in military organizations and to encourage all, others to afford assistance to- wards protecting the State. In pursuance of this call many troops were raised throughout the State. The citizens of Berks County re-

sponded promptly and raised fifteen companies of men-ten of which were formed into one regi- ment, called the Forty-second.1 They were mus- tered into service and moved to the front. But so rapid were the movements of the armies, and the decisive battle of Gettysburg was fought so soon after the call for the militia, that the men had scarcely arrived in camp and been organized be- fore the danger was over. The rebel army made its escape on the 13th and 14th of July, and then the campaign was ended. But the militia was, however, held for some time after this, having been employed on various duty.
With the close of this raid the rebel invasion of 1863 ended. Further service was no longer required of the militia, and during the months of August and September the majority of the men were mustered out. With few exceptions, they were not brought to mortal conflict. But they, nevertheless, rendered most important ser- vice. They came forward at a moment when there was pressing need. Their presence gave great moral support to the Union army.
The following volunteer companies from Berks County were in the emergency service of the State during the summer of 1863. The entire Forty-second Regiment was composed of companies from the county :
