The regiment steadily ascended the rugged side of the mountain, under a heavy fire of artillery and musketry, and after a struggle lasting five hours, stubbornly contested on both sides, the heights were carried by the triumphant division, which planted its standards on the summit. The 5th entered the engagement with 357 men, and lost 1 killed and 19 wounded.
The 5th was engaged at Antietam on Sept. 16 and 17, losing 2 killed and 8 wounded.
During the time intervening between the close of the An- tietam campaign and the opening of Gen. Burnside's cam- paign, at Fredericksburg, the 5th was transferred from the 1st to the 3d Brigade, which latter then consisted of the 5th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th Regts. of the Reserves. In the movement ou Fredericksburg, begun Dec. 11, the Reserves,
* Capt. Sturrock was formerly, at the time of his enlistment, pub- lisher and editor of the Bradford Reporter. Hle enlisted in April, 1861, as a private in Co. F, 5th Regt. P. R. C., served a time as orderly sergeant, was elected first lientenant, but owing to the omission of the proper anthorities was never commissioned. On the resigna- tion of Capt. Tront, in 1862, Mr. Sturrock was elected captain, and had been in command of the company for some months at the time of his death. E. O. Goodrich, his assveiate and afterwards successor on the Reporter, said of him, "He was universally esteemed. Of quiet and unassuming manners, his sterling qualities and social, manly disposition won the respect of all with whom he was associated. IIe has laid his life on the altar of his country, and no holier or purer sacrifice has been offered than when Robert W. Sturrock fell dead upon the battle-field cheering on his men in the defense of the Union and of freedom."

HISTORY OF BRADFORD COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA.
commanded by Gen. Meade, were attached to the left grand division, commanded by Gen. Franklin, which crossed the Rappahannock some distance below Fredericksburg, and formed in line of battle, facing the enemy's intrenched camp. In the attack upon the enemy, which became a most desperate struggle, the 5th occupied a position on the left of the 3d Brigade, nearest the enemy's works. The Reserves, un- aided, advanced with determined bravery, sweeping every- thing before them, completely breaking the enemy's lines. In the face of a destructive fire from a battery, the 3d Brigade crossed the railroad and ascended the acclivity, but so terrible was the storm of battle both infantry and artil- lery .. compelled to withdraw. Here Gen. Jackson, who commanded the brigade, was killed, and was succeeded by Col. Fisher, of the 5th, Lieut .- Col. Dare assuming the command of the regiment. The loss of the 5th in this en- gagement was 20 killed, 88 wounded, and 61 taken prisoners. Maj. Zentmeyer and his brother, acting adjutant, were among the killed, and Lieut .- Col. Dare among the wounded.
The 5th participated and achieved new and unfading laurels in the Gettysburg campaign, under Meade, in which it was commanded by Col. Dare. At the struggle for the possession of Little Round Top, between Hood's division, of Longstreet's corps, and the 3d brigade of the 1st division of the 5th Corps, under command of Col. Vincent, of the 83d Pennsylvania volunteers, Col. Fisher with the 5th, under Lieut .- Col. Dare, and the 12th, Col. Harding, dashed up the hill with vehemence and inspiriting cheers, and reinforced the wellnigh erushed brigade, and secured the summit, the key to the position of the Union troops.
The loss of the 5th in this engagement was 2 wounded. The campaigns of the summer and fall of 1863 were par- ticipated in also by the 5th, but with no particularly im- portant engagements.
During the winter and spring of 1864 the regiment was recruited and reorganized in preparation for an active cam- paign, and on May 4 crossed the Rapidan, and was at once, on the 5th, engaged in the Wilderness fight, the opening battle of Gen. Grant's great campaign on Richmond. On the 6th, Lieut .- Col. Dare was mortally wounded, and died on the field. Maj. Smith, formerly captain of Co. C, succeeded to the command, and was soon after commissioned lieu- tenant-colonel for gallantry on the field.
From May 6 to 31, when the sound of battle along the lines was almost constant, and the groans of the dying were never stilled for an hour, the 5th participated in the whole series of engagements with its accustomed gallantry.
On the date last named its term of service expired, and in company with other Reserve regiments it was relieved from duty, and bidding adieu to the veterans still facing the foe on the banks of the Tolopotomy, returned to Harrisburg, where, on June 11, it was mustered out of service.

THE SIXTH RESERVE-THIRTY-FIFTH REGIMENT P. V.
On April 22, 1861, the company of Capt. W. H. H. Gore, known as the " Northern Invincibles," and the com- pany of Capt. Bradbury, known as the " Towanda Rifles," left Towanda for Harrisburg, where they arrived on May 2,

and formed the nucleus of the 6th Reserve Regiment. Upon their arrival at Camp Curtin, finding it impossible to be accepted for the three months' service, the quota being already filled, they re-enlisted for the terin of three years, and became Cos. F and I, of the 6th Reserve, or 35th Regt. of the line of Pennsylvania Volunteers.
Six of the ten companies of the regiment were organized on the same day, April 22, 1861, though recruited in dif- ferent sections of the State, and without previous knowledge of each other's movements. They were as follows : the " Iron Guard," Co. A, in Columbia county ; the " Northern Invincibles," Co. F, in Bradford County; the "J. D. Cameron Infantry," Co. G, in Dauphin county ; the " Tioga Invincibles," Co. HI, in Tioga county ; the "Towanda Rifles," Co. I, in Bradford County, and the " Susquehanna Volunteers," Co. K, in Susquehanna county. The re- maining four companies were from Snyder, Wayne, Frank- lin, and Montour counties, respectively. With but few exceptions, the men had no previous military experience.
On June 22, the organization of the regiment was effected by the election of the following field-officers : W. Wallace Ricketts, of Co. A, colonel; William M. Penrose, lientenant-colonel; Henry J. Madill, major. Lient. Henry B. Mckean, of Co. I, was appointed adjutant.
The regiment remained in Camp Curtin till July 12, when it was arined with the Harper's Ferry musket,-ex- cept the two flanking companies, A and K, which were supplied with Springfield rifles,-and moved to Greencastle, and encamped in Camp Biddle, where it remained until the 22d, when it moved by rail, via Harrisburg and Baltimore, to Washington, which latter place it reached on the 24th. On the 27th it was mustered into the United States ser- vice. From thence it moved to Tenallytown, and was, with the other regiments of the Reserves, organized as the division of Gen. McCall, being brigaded, in the 3d Brigade, with the 9th (38th ) Regt., Col. Conrad F. Jackson; 10th (39th) Regt., Col. John S. McCalmont; and 12th (41st) Regt., Col. John H. Taggart, Pa. Reserves,-Col. John S. McCalmont commanding the brigade.
The 6th became one of the most efficiently drilled regi- ments of the State.
The first meeting of the 6th with the foe was at Draines- ville, Dec. 20, 1861. The 9th Reserve was posted on the right, the 6th in the centre, the Kane Rifles on the left, and the 10th and 12th in reserve. The 6th advanced into a wood a short distance, and met the 9th slowly retiring, being unable to determine whether the force in front was the enemy or the Kane Rifles. The true condition was soon developed, and volley followed volley in quick succes- sion, and then the charge was ordered. The regiment cleared the fence in front with a bound, crossed the open field, and in a moment the enemy was flying in confusion, losing one caisson and some prisoners. The regiment lay in camp until March 10, and during that time Col. Ricketts was discharged, by reason of continued ill health, and Lieut .- Col. Penrose resigned, leaving Maj. Madill in com- mand.
The 6th marched with the Army of the Potomac on the rebel fortifications at Centreville and Manassas, and back again, a few days later, to Alexandria, performing one of
the most fatiguing marches-through rain and mud, shelter- less and hungry-experienced during its whole service. On April 1, Lieut. William Sinclair, of the 3d U. S. Artil- lery, was elected colonel, and Adj. Henry B. Mckean lieu- tenant-colonel, of the regiment, and Q-M .- Sergt. A. A. Scudder was commissioned quartermaster, vice R. H. McCoy, resigned.
From this time to June 13 the history of the 6th is uneventful, camp-life being its portion, interspersed with marching between points. Its drill, however, was not neg- lected, and its efficiency thereby greatly enhanced.
On June 13, 1862, the regiment, with the Reserves, was embarked for the White House, to the support of Gen. Mcclellan in his Peninsular campaign. At the White House vast stores had been accumulated for McClellan's supply. The 6th, with its brigade, arrived June 14, the 1st and 2d Brigades having preceded it, and moved forward. Upon the arrival of the 3d Brigade the post was alarmed by Stuart's famous cavalry raid in McClellan's rear, temporarily cutting his line of supply. The 6th was detailed to remain behind, when the brigade marched to join Mcclellan's column, and was posted at Tunstall's station, four miles from White House, on the Richmond and York River railroad. On the 19th five companies were ordered to fall back to White House, and the remaining companies at Tunstall's to throw up earthworks for their protection. The rebels, however, flanked the Union army, and White House was evacuated, the stores that could not be removed being destroyed. The companies at Tunstall's, under Col. Sinclair, by order of Gen. Stoneman, marched in hot haste to White House, and finally, so urgent did haste become, by the general's order they threw away everything but arms and cartridge-boxes, and came to the landing on the double-quick, closely followed by the enemy. The regiment proceeded via Fortress Mon- roe and James river to Harrison's Landing, arriving July 1. During that night the wagon-trains of Mcclellan's discom- fited army began to arrive, and by morning the brigades began pouring in, thinned and worn by the seven days' battles,-some regiments scarcely larger than a full com- pany, showing the severe and bloody struggles through which they had passed. The 6th here met its comrades of the division, greatly reduced by the fiery trial through which they had toiled and fought.
On the 4th, the 6th was transferred to the 1st Brigade, Col. William Sinclair commanding, Gen. Truman Seymour in command of the Reserve division, Fitz-John Porter, major-general, 5th Corps. The regiment at this time exchanged its arms for Springfield rifles, and performed skirmish duty alternately with the Kane Rifles.
A series of engagements extending over July 28, 29, and 30, 1862, were maintained by the Reserves near Groveton, -as the contending armies were concentrating and pre- paring for the desperate encounter of Bull Run (the second).
On the 28th the action of the 6th was unimportant. On the 29th it advanced up a ravine to the right flank of a rebel battery, but discovering it was supported by a heavy infantry force, withdrew.
On the 30th the fighting of the Reserves was splendid. The 6th was advanced to the left flank of the division,

slightly in the rear of the advanced skirmish-line, which the regiment held until relieved by the advance of Porter's Corps, when the division was marched to the rear and massed. Porter steadily drove the enemy, until heavily reinforced, when he in turn fell back. The Reserves were ordered to form across the line of Porter's retreat, in order that he might rally and re-form his columns. The 1st and 2d Brigades had scarcely moved from their position when the enemy appeared on the immediate left, and the 3d Brigade, of which the 6th was a part, was compelled to resist the rebel advance. Most gallantly was it done, but superior numbers compelled a retreat. The artillery was formed on the brow of a hill south of the Warrenton road, and the division drawn up in column of brigade for its support. A brisk artillery dnel lasted for some time, when the enemy in well-dressed lines were seen moving, evidently intent on securing a road which lay between the contending forces. "Immediately the word ' forward' was given, and the Reserves swept down the hill with headlong impetu- osity, reaching the bank at the upper side of the road as the enemy was approaching the fence on the lower, and sprang down the bank into the road before them. The rebels, dismayed at the rapidity and success of the move- ment, turned and fled in confusion, under a terrific fire from the charging column." In this charge the flag of the 6th was shot from the staff, while in the hands of Maj. Madill. It was instantly taken by the gallant Reynolds, who, holding it aloft, dashed along the line, the wind catching it as he turned and wrapping it about his form. The sight was inspiring, and pansing for an instant, in the midst of the battle, the men gave a tremendous cheer for their com- mander.
The loss of the 6th in these sanguinary battles was 6 killed, 30 wounded, and 8 missing.
On August 30, Maj. Madill was elected colonel of the 14Ist Regt., and a few days after took leave of the 6th, regretted by his old command, for in the last battle at Bull Run he had displayed conspicuous daring and gallantry, and won the confidence of all. Five companies, A, B, C, D, and E, at South Mountain charged up the face of the acclivity and dislodged the 8th Alabama, and drove them in confusion down the opposite side of the mountain, and with the rest of the brigade held the mountain-top. The loss of the regiment in this bold dash was 12 men killed, and 2 officers and 39 men wounded.
At Antietam the 6th distinguished itself anew under the lead of its gallant commander, supporting the Bucktails, and sustained a loss of 132 killed, wounded, and missing ; 8 enlisted men being the former, and Capts. Wright, Meeker, and Carle, and Adjt. Coleman were among the wounded.
On Nov. 6, the regiment went into camp on the same ground occupied by the Reserves a few days previous to the second battle of Bull Run, at Warrenton. Thence, on the 11th, it marched to Brook's Station, on the Aquia Creek and Fredericksburg railroad, where a very comfort- able camp was formed. Col. Sinclair was now in command of the brigade, Gen. Seymour having been relieved at his own request. Lieut .- Col. McKean having resigned, Maj. Ent was in command of the regiment, and Capt. Gore was detailed as field-officer.
At the battle of Fredericksburg the 6th was heavily engaged, crossing the Rappahannock on a pontoon bridge about three miles below the city on the morning of Dec. 12, and engaging the enemy on the 13th. It drove the rebels from their first and second lines, and, moving along up the hill, encountered the third line, and, after a most terrific fight, discomfited the rebels completely. "The regiment had now lost more than one-third of its entire number, the brigade had suffered terribly, and Col. Sinclair had been borne from the field wounded, when the enemy appeared moving through the woods to the right in large numbers. At the same time a terrific fire of musketry was opened on the left of the brigade. The line began to waver, and, no supporting troops being at hand, it finally yielded, and the regiment with the brigade fell back over the same ground ou which it had advanced." Out of 300 men who went into this action, 10 were killed, 92 wounded, and 19 missing.
In the Gettysburg campaign the Gth won imperishable honor, the brigade being under command of Col. William McCandless, of the 2d Reserve, Col. Sinclair having resigned. The regiment reached Gettysburg at two o'clock P.M., July 2, and made a charge from Little Round Top with but small loss. It skirmished all day on the 3d, and towards night charged again, and captured a number of prisoners, and recaptured one gun and five caissons, and relieved a large number of Union prisoners, sustaining a loss of 2 men killed, and Lieut. Rockwell and 21 men wounded. It pursued the retreating columns of Lee to Falling Waters, where it was ascertained the rebel army had escaped across the river. The regiment marched and skirmished until

Aug. 18, when it arrived at Rappahannock Station, and remained there until Sept. 15. In the mean time, Lient .- Col. W. H. Ent had been promoted to colonel, Capt. W. D. Dixon, of Co. D, to lieutenant-colonel, and Capt. W. H. H. Gore, of Co. I, to major. It encountered the enemy again at Bristoe Station, Oct. 14, having 3 men wounded

with shells. At New Hope Church, the left wing of the 6th, deployed as skirmishers, under command of Maj. Gore, repulsed two charges of the rebels, with a loss of 2 killed and 4 wounded.
In the Wilderness campaign of Gen. Grant, the 6th was engaged every day from the opening battle of the campaign, May 5, 1864, to May 21, the date of the expiration of its term of service. On the 5th and 6th it was aetively en- gaged, contesting gallantly every inch of ground. On the 7th a slight skirmish only occupied it, in which Capt. Allen, of Co. G, was wounded. At Spottsylvania, on the 8th, it was engaged heavily all day, and on the 9th moved to the right of the line, and construeted riffe-pits. On the 10th two unsuccessful charges, and again on the 12thi, were made on the enemy's works, led by Maj. Gore, Col. Ent having command of the 3d Brigade. In this last engage- ment Capt. John M. Snyder, of Co. I, was killed. The loss during these engagements was 13 killed, 64 wounded, and 9 missing. " Constantly, on the skirmish- and pieket- line, the 6th met the enemy on every field with unflinching courage." On the 22d it captured 90 men of Hill's Corps.
" At length the final day of its service arrived, and with it the erowning success of the Reserves at Bethesda Church. The regiment was deployed as skirmishers, and had gained the Mechanicsville road, near the church, when it was at- tacked by an overwhelming foree, and compelled to retire with considerable loss. It then threw up a rifle-pit, upon which the enemy impetuously charged. Retaining its fire until the foe was sufficiently near, it poured forth a volley that inflicted most terrible slaughter. Although but about 150 strong, the 6th captured 102 prisoners, and buried 72 dead rebels in its immediate front." Col. Ent and Capt. Waters were wounded, and 19 men captured.
After three years' service in camp and on the march, from Drainesville to its final brilliant success at Bethesda Church, sharing in the privations and hardships of the Army of the Potomac, as well as in its glory, the regiment left the field, June 1, for Harrisburg, where it was, with the Reserves, received enthusiastically on the 6th, and mus- tered out of service on the 14th.
