THIRTEENTH REGIMENT.


Company H of this regiment, which had the honor of being the first Butler County organization to take the field during the war of the rebellion, was organ ize.1 as the Butler County Blnes at a meeting held in the court house in Butler on the 22d day of April. 1861. The commissioned and non-commissionedl officers then chosen were John N. Purviance. Captain; Alexander Gillespie. First Lieutenant: John G. Vandyke. Second Lientenant; John B. MeQuistion, First Sergeant: Edward Lyon. Second Sergeant; Oliver C. Relie, Third Sergeant; Samuel Mucket. Fourth Sergeant; Thompson Campbell, Jr .. First Corporal; Andrew Carns. Second Corporal: John P Orr. Third Corporal. and Joseph B Mechling. Fourth Corporal.


Leaving Butler on the forenoon of that day, i. e .. the 22.1. the company reached Freeport at 3 P. M .. and Pittsburgh at about 7 P. M It remained there until the 24th, when with other companies a line was formed on Allegheny Commou, and with Gen. Negley in command the battalion marched through Allegheny ('ity to Manchester, and thener to the railroad station. where a train bound for Harrisburg was waiting them. The latter city was reached about 1 o'clock A M. of the 25th. and the command found quarters in the German Reformed Church. During the same day, the Thir- teenth Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteer was mons- tered into the United States service for three months, by Capt. S. G. Simmons, and to this regiment the Blues were assigned, and designated Company H. During the same day also. Jacob Ziegler was elected Captain of the company. vice Capt. John N. Purviance. com- missioned Lieutenant Colonel of the regiment. Capt.


Ziegler resigned, however. on the 11th of May fol- lowing, and at a company election held that day by orders of Col. Rowley. First Lieut. Alexander Gilles- pie was elected Captain. On the 14th of the same month. George W. Smith was elected First Lieu enant to fill the vacancy occasioned by the promotion of Lieut. Gillespie.


Prior to the events last mentioned though, or on the 26th day of April. the regiment left Harrisburg, and reaching York went into camp near the latter town. the location being termed Camp Scott, in honor of Gen. Winfield Scott. Here the regiment remained for instruction until the 4th day of June, and the re- sult. though the weather during a considerable por- tion of the time was stormy, was most satisfactory. On the Ith of June, the command moved to Camp Rowley, near Chamb rburg, and on the 11th to Camp Brady, about three miles sonth of the town. where it reported to Col. Dixon S. Miles, commanding the Fourth Brigade, " First Division, Patterson's Corps. On the 13th, with five days' cooked rations and forty rounds of cartridges per man, the regiment began its march southward, the Thirteenth reaching Camp Lee, two miles south of Greencastle, Penn , at S o'clock P. M. of the same night. This was the first march under arms fully equipped for service. Remaining at Camp Lee until the morning of the 15th the forces of which the regiment formed a part continued the march to Camp Riley, a point two miles north of Williamsport, Md.


On Sunday. the 16th of June, the Thirteenth was assigned to the advance of the column, and passing through Williamsport about noon, just as the worship- ing congregations were being dismissed, forded the Potomac (the stream being about three and one half feet in depth), and oncamped at Camp Hitchcock. about three miles beyond-thus being the first northern men in arms to reach Virginia on this line. On the morning of the 18th. the volunteer regiments were ordered back to the Maryland side of the river, the regulars belonging to the corps and the cavalry and artillery having been ordered to Washington, D. C. This point near Williamsport was termed Camp Miles, and here the mon of the Thirteenth constructed a strong field work or redan for the use of Capt. Doubleday's battery. When completed. three siege guns of a heavy caliber were placed in position. and their range tested by a shot from each, which. rico- chetting on the hard turnpike ou the opposite side of the river, cansed sundry rebel horsemen who were in- tently watching the operations to beat an unceremo- nions and hasty retreat.


*This ligade was composed of detachments of the Second and Third United States lufintry, May Shepperd; Ninth Pennsylvania Volunteers, CEL Henry ('. Longuecker : Thirteenth Pennsylvania Volunteers, Col Thomas A. Rowley, and the Sixteenth Pennsylvania Volunteers, Col Thomas A Zeigle.


HISTORY OF BUTLER COUNTY


Amid frequent alarms and the hasty marshalling of the regiment in line of battle. caused by small though enterprising bodies of the enemy firing upon the Union piekets, the time passed until July 1. when Second Sergt. Edwin Lyon was appointed First Lien- tenant of Company H. On the 2d of July, Patterson's army, 20,000 strong. began crossing (by fording) to the south side of the l'otomac, but the Eighth and Thirteenth regiments were left in the rear* to garri- son Williamsport and keep open comunication with the base of supplies.


Early on the morning of July 4. however, the regi- ment was ordered to escort the Rhode Island Battery belonging to Col. Burnside's command to Martins- burg. Va. The pieces were moved with difficulty across the ford, but were safely reported to the com- mander of the forces early in the evening. The troops were then engaged in picket and fatigue duty until the morning of July 15, when the whole column- some twenty thousand men of all arms-under the com- mand of Gens. Patterson, Cadwallader, Keim, Will- iams, Negley, Longnecker, Thomas and Abercrombie, marched forth some ten miles, and occupied an aban- doned camping ground of the enemy near the village of Bunker Hill. On the 17th, a foreed march was made to Charleston, and nearly the whole distance over dusty roads was performed at a " double-quick." At a cross-roads called Smithfield, distant five miles from Bunker Hill, a halt was made by order of Gen. Patter- son, a line of battle formed, the artillery placed in battery, and everything put in readiness for battle. The enemies' skirmishers rapidly gave way. however. and the march was continued to Charleston, Jefferson Co., Va., where the regiment remained until the 21st (the day the. first battle of Bull Run was fought), when it was ordered to Harper's Ferry. It arrived at that point late in the afternoon, forded the river in the darkness, and encamped two miles beyond. On the evening of the 22d. it marched to Hagerstown, arriving at 2 A. M. of the 23d, and there remained until the morning of the 25th, when it proceeded via the Cumberland Valley Railroad to Harrisburg. Pittsburgh was reached at 2 P. M. of the 28th. The regiment was handsomely entertained by the citizens during the same evening, and on the following day it made its last parade under arms by marching through the principal streets of Pittsburgh and Allegheny City. It was mustered out of service by First Lieut. John B. Johnston, of the Third United States Cavalry,


*It is stated that being thus cut off from the front-a position which they coveted-the men of the Thirteenth were determined to show their prowess, if not with arms, then with the pen. So, " procuring the use of the Williamsport Ledger office, they commenced the publication of the Pennsylvania Thirteenth. devoted to the patriotic sentiment of the camp, and to the more elevated tone of wit and humor prevalent in the ranks. The first number was issued July 4. 1861, and was continued at intervals until after the battle of Antietam, in Sep- tember, 1862, a portable printing press and materials having been purchased, and moved with the regimout. The establishment was finally lost amid the confu- sion on that hotly contested field."-Buter' History.


August 6. and the ensning day its members received final pay and discharge papers, and were disbanded.

FORTIETH REGIMENT. ELEVENTH RESERVE.


The companies comprising the Eleventh Regiment of Pennsylvania Reserves were recruited, A in Cam- bria County, B and E in Indiana, C and D in Butler, F in Fayette, G in Armstrong. H and I in Westmore- land and K in Jefferson. A majority of those com- panies were recruited in April and May, 1861, for the three months' service, but. failing to be accepted, still preserved their organizations, and when the call for the Reserve Corps was issued, marched to the ren- dezvous at Camp Wright, near Pittsburgh. Upon their arrival in camp, they were mustered into the State service and furnished with blankets, clothing. etc .. of excellent quality. The regimental. field and staff officers were chosen July 1, and some twenty days later the regiment was hurriedly moved forward to Washington. D. C .. where, on the 29th of the same month, it was mustered into the United States service for three years.

serves performed most gallant and arduous services, and to rehearse the story of its campaigns and battles in full would be but a repetition of the deeds per- formed by the Army of the Potomac. for the fallen heroes of the Eleventh were left upon all the great fields of battle in the States of Virginia. Maryland and Pennsylvania.


The following history of Company C has been pre- pared by Capt. Fleeger, yet we add in this connection, that the history of Company D is equally as brilliant and illustrious, as the remarks opposite members' names will show, and that the part taken by a com- pany of infantry, so far as regards its marches, bat- tles, etc., is but the record of the regiment to which it belonged:


COMPANY €, ELEVENTH REGIMENT PENNSYLVANIA RESERVE VOLUNTEER CORPS.


This company was recruited at Sunbury, Butler Co., Penn., in April and May, 1861. In honor of Rev. W. T. Dickson, " then Principal of the West Sun- bury Academy, at which a number of the members of the company were students, it was called the " Dick- son Guards." Its services were promptly offered to the Government, and on the passage of the act of the Pennsylvania Legislature of May 15, 1861. ; authorizing the organization of the Pennsylvania Re- serves, it was accepted. The company entered Camp Wright, near Pittsburgh, Penn., on the 11th day of June, 1861, and on the organization of the Eleventh Regiment Pennsylvania Reserves, a few days after- ward, it became Company C of that regiment, by which name it was afterward known. It remained in Camp Wright until the battle of Bull Run, Va., July 21, 1861, when. with its regiment, it was hurried to Washington City. It was formally mustered into the service of the United States on the 29th day of July, 1861, and with the regiment and division went into camp at Tonallytown. north of Washington, where it remained until October, 1861, when, with the regiment. it crossed the Potomac, on the Chain Bridge, into Virginia, and took post with the division on the right of the Army of the Potomac. The history of the Eleventh Regiment Pennsylvania Reserve Volunteer Corps is its history. With its regiment it participated in all the battles in which the Pennsylvania Reserves were engaged, from Mechanicsville June 27, 1862, to Bethesda Church May 30, 1861 : its term of service (which was three years) having expired the day after the battle of Bethesda Church, it was relieved from duty at the front, and returned with the regiment and division to Pennsylvania, where, on the 13th day of June, 1864. the survivors were innstored out at Pitts- burgh.
