ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTH REGIMENT.
To the formation of this regiment Clearfield county contributed parts of three companies. Company C was recruited in this and Clarion county ; Com- pany D in this and Allegheny county, and Company F was recruited in Indi- ana, Venango and Clearfield counties.
Early in the month of August, 1861, Amor A. McKnight, who had seen service as one of the three months' men, was authorized to raise a regiment for the three years service. A major part of the recruiting offices were established in, and the men enlisted mainly from what was, at that time, known as the " Wild Cat" district, being the congressional district of which this county then formed a part. When a sufficient number were enlisted, and, as a matter of fact, the sturdy residents responded quickly and nobly to the call, an organiza- tion was completed, and field officers elected as follows : Amor A. McKnight, colonel; W. W. Corbett, lieutenant-colonel; M. M. Dick, major. The regi- ment rendezvoused at Pittsburgh, but were not long permitted to remain there, as, early in October the command was ordered to the front, and in pursuance thereof went to Washington and encamped for a brief time, and then moved to a point about one mile south of Alexandria, known as Camp Jameson, where they went into winter quarters. Here it was assigned to Jameson's Brigade, which was made up in the main of Pennsylvania troops.
In March following, 1862, they broke camp and were transported to Fort- ress Monroe, and immediately afterward participated in the siege of Yorktown, doing guard duty and suffering only from sickness caused by the unhealthful locality in which they were placed. Upon the evacuation of the place by the enemy, they joined in pursuit, and after a hard march through rain and mud

reached Williamsburg. The next day, May 4, they were advanced as skir- mishers, and planted the colors on the principal fort of the enemy. It was next engaged at Fair Oaks, where it got into exceedingly close quarters, but through the coolness and efficiency of the officers in command, and the brav- ery and determined fighting done by the men, it was eventually victorious, and escaped annihilation and capture, but not without serious loss and injury to officers and men. The result of this battle to the regiment was forty-one killed, one hundred and fifty wounded, and seventeen missing. Headley, in mentioning the part taken by the One Hundred and Fifth during the battle of Fair Oaks, says: " Napoleon's veterans never stood firmer during a devastat- ing fire." On the 26th and 27th of June following the regiment was again engaged at the battles of Mechanicsville and Gaines's Mill, but met with no serious loss. After this the army fell back and began a retreat to the James River, and Jameson's Brigade was placed under command of General Robin- son. During this retreat in which the Federal forces were hard pressed by the Confederates, the regiment was constantly under orders and frequently ex- posed to the enemy's fire. On the 30th, at Charles City Cross Roads, it had a sharp engagement with the rebels in repelling an attempt on the part of the latter to capture a battery, and in which the regiment lost fifty men in killed and wounded. At Malvern Hill, the next day, it was under a heavy artillery fire, but not closely engaged. At the close of the campaign on the Peninsula, the regiment was assigned to duty in guarding the railroad between Manassas and Warrenton Junction. At the Second Bull Run it was again hotly en- gaged and its ranks fearfully decimated by being in an open position and exposed to the deadly fire of the enemy, but nevertheless held firmly to its place in support of a battery. At sundown it was relieved and placed on picket duty until nearly midnight, and then moved to Centreville, where it lay until the 3Ist. General Kearney, in his report of the Second Bull Run fight, says: "The One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania Volunteers were not want- ing. They are Pennsylvanians- mountain men-again have they been fear- fully decimated. The desperate charge of these regiments sustains the past history of this division."
Reduced in numbers, fatigued and worn, but retaining their characteristic bravery and determination, and willing to remain in active service at the front, the regiment was, at the close of Pope's campaign, ordered into the defenses of Washington, and remained there until after the battle of Antietam. On the 28th of October following it moved to White's Ford, crossed the Potomac and proceeded to the Ball's Bluff battle ground, where for several days it was en- gaged in scouting expeditions in the vicinity of Leesburg and Millville. With the main army it then advanced to the Rappahannock, and on the 24th of November, reached Falmouth. On the 13th of December it crossed the river, and at a double quick went to the relief of the Pennsylvania Reserves, who

were hotly engaged and hard pressed, and took a position in the rear of Ran- dolph's battery. At dusk it advanced and lay upon their arms in front of the battery for a space of thirty-six hours, within reach of, but concealed from the rebel sharpshooters, but was then relieved and returned to camp across the river. From this time until the latter part of January, 1863, the regiment remained in camp, and were then ordered to move, but owing to the impass- able condition of the roads, were compelled to return.
The troops were reviewed by Governor Curtin on the 26th day of March, and on the 10th of April following were visited by President Lincoln and Gen- eral Hooker, the latter having now been advanced to the chief command. On the 28th of April the brigade to which the regiment was attached, started on the Chancellorsville campaign and occupied a prominent position in the en- gagements that followed, charging here and there in the thickest of the fight, constantly under the terrible fire of artillery and infantry, suffering every hard- ship known to modern warfare, until on the 5th of May it was ordered across the river to Falmouth. In killed, wounded, and missing the regiment lost in this battle an aggregate of seventy-seven men out of three hundred and forty- seven that entered, among the killed being the gallant Colonel McKnight. Then commenced the move to the northward, and the regiment reached the scene of Gettysburg on the night of July I, and on the day following Com- panies A, C, D, F, and I were deployed as skirmishers in support of the Sixty-third Regiment, where they remained until afternoon when they were called in, and with the regiment, took a position on the right of the brigade when the battle commenced. During the terrible battle that ensued the regi- ment behaved nobly, and fought as brave men can fight, first advancing and then retiring, officers and men alike being cut down under the merciless artillery and infantry fire, until at night, they took a position on the road connecting Cemetery Ridge with Round Top. Of two hundred and forty-seven men who went into this fight, the regiment lost in killed, wounded, and missing, one hundred and sixty-eight, more than half of its numerical strength. Of the conduct of the One Hundred and Fifth, Colonel Craig said: "We rallied some eight or ten times after the rest of the brigade had left us, and the boys fought like demons. Their battle-cry was, Pennsylvania. I could handle them just as well on that field of battle as though they had been simply on drill. This is a state of perfection in discipline that is gained in but few regiments."
Gettysburg over, after a series of movements, and a sharp brush at Au- burn, the regiment brought up at Fairfax Station, where for a brief time it was assigned to provost duty, but again advanced, and in the latter part of November took part in the battle of Locust Grove. At the close of the Mine Run campaign it went into winter quarters at Brandy Station.
On the 28th of December two hundred and forty men, nearly the entire strength of the regiment, re-enlisted, and were given a veteran furlough. While away about fifty recruits were obtained.

HISTORY OF CLEARFIELD COUNTY.
Early in May of the succeeding year preparations for the spring campaign were completed, and refreshed and recruited the regiment moved with the army to participate in the memorable seven-days battle of the Wilderness. The results accomplished here fully maintained the reputation and fighting ability of the One Hundred and Fifth. Their grand coup de main on the 12th was a crowning glory, and by it there fell into the hands of the Federal troops five thousand prisoners, besides artillery and small arms. Next came Peters- burg, in which it took part, and after that the raid on the Weldon Railroad. July 26 the regiment participated in the movement across the James River, and returned in time to be of good service during the events that followed, but suffered severe losses. Colonel Craig was mortally wounded and died a day later. In the various attacks on the Weldon Railroad that followed during the fall and early winter, it took a lively part, after which it again went into winter quarters.
The next spring, 1865, the regiment engaged at Hatcher's Run and Sailor's Creek, and upon the surrender of General Lee marched, by way of Richmond, to Bailey's Cross Roads, where it encamped. On June 23 it marched in the grand review at Washington, and on the IIth of July was finally mustered out of service. During its service in the field this regiment lost two colonels, two lieutenant-colonels, one major, five captains, and five lieutenants were killed in action, or died from wounds so received. At the final muster out not an offi- cer, and but a handful of the men who originally marched with the regiment remained.
