47TH REGIMENT.


SERVICES .- This regiment was principally re- cruited through the exertions of Col. T. H. Good, of Allentown, by authority from the gov- ernor, on Aug. 5, 1861. Of the ten companies five were from Lehigh county: B, G, I, and K, of Allentown, and F, of Catasauqua.


The companies rendezvoused at Camp Curtin, and on September Ist the following field officers were selected from Lehigh county: T. H. Good, colonel; W. H. Gausler, major; and J. W. Fuller, adjutant. Schools of instruction brought the command to a high degree of proficiency. The companies were uniformed and equipped as they were mustered in from August 19th to Sep- tember 20th.


The regiment proceeded from the state and became stationed at Kalorama Height near Washington, on Sept. 21st, where it continued until the 27th. It was then ordered to join the advance of the army, encamped at Fort Ethan Allan, and was assigned to the 3d Brigade. It was armed with the Mississippi rifle and drilled exclusively in light infantry tactics. As winter approached the men received blankets, gloves, and articles of clothing from their families and friends at home.


The brigade moved to Camp Griffin and on October 1Ith took part in the "grand review" at Bailey's Cross Roads. On Jan. 22, 1862, the regiment was ordered to accompany the brigade to Key West. On the 23d it left for Annapo- lis, where, on the 27th, it embarked on the steam- ship "Oriental," and reached its destination on February 4th. While in Florida it suffered much from fevers and many of its members died. On June 18th it embarked for Hilton Head and arrived there on the 22d. In July it was moved to Beaufort, where the entire island was pick- eted, and a large portion of the brigade having been ordered north, the 47th bore its full share of duty; so much, indeed, that it received the highest commendation for its fine discipline.


In September an expedition was fitted out to penetrate Florida and remove the obstructions in the St. John's river, which included the 47th. The campaign was opened on October Ist by operations directed against St. John's Bluff, five miles from the mouth of the river. A detour of 25 miles was made through pine woods and swamps with the 47th in the advance, driving the rebels before them. Co. B, of Allentown, and Co. E, of Easton, were sent in pursuit and, after a sharp skirmish, took Jacksonville, Fla. Thence these two companies proceeded, by steamer "Darlington," 200 miles up the river, where they captured the rebel steamer, "Gov. Milton" and conveyed it within the Union line. The loss to the regiment in these great operations was only two wounded men.


On October 2Ist the command destroyed the railroad bridge over the Pocotaligo and broke communication between Charlestown and Savan- nah. A landing was effected at Mackey's Point, and the brigade marched towards the bridge, but proceeding only a few miles, upon reaching an open country a heavy fire from a rebel field battery fell upon the men. The enemy was driv- en from its position and followed for four miles, where the enemy were found in force at Poco- taligo Bridge. A steady fire was continued for two hours, and night approaching, the 47th was obliged to withdraw to Mackey's Point. Cap- tains Mickley and Junker and 14 men were kill-

ed and 114 wounded. The officers and men were complimented in general orders for their gallantry. On the 23d the regiment returned to Hilton Head, and a week afterward was de- tailed as an escort at the burial of General Mitchell, firing the salute over his grave.


On the 15th of November the 47th was or- dered to Key West, and arriving there on the 18th, five companies, under Col. Good, were or- dered to garrison Fort Taylor, and the other five, under Lt. Col. Alexander, to garrison Fort Jefferson, which were regarded as very import- ant military posts. These forts were placed in the best possible condition and made impreg- nable; and here the regiment remained until Feb. 25, 1864. In the meantime, 500 men of the regiment re-enlisted and received a veteran furlough. It was highly complimented at var- ious times during its occupancy of Key West for efficiency, and it enjoyed continuously the con- fidence of the department commander.


On that day, February 25th, it was trans- ferred to Franklin, La., and assigned to the 2d Brigade of the Ist Division, in the 19th Army Corps. An expedition was then fitted out to proceed up the Red river and placed under the command of Gen. N. P. Banks, which moved March 15th to Alexandria, where it was joined by the command of Gen. A. J. Smith, and a fleet of gunboats under Commodore Porter ; and thence it proceeded up the river to Shreveport, which was to be the point of attack. The reg- iment, on April 7th, engaged the enemy near Pleasant Hill, and again eight miles away, where a hotly contested battle ensued in both of which the rebels were defeated. On the 8th, at Sabine Cross Roads, and Peach Hill, the enemy defeated the advance of Banks. The command withdrew after midnight and returned to Pleas- ant Hill on the 9th. The loss was near 60 killed and wounded, among the former hav- ing been Lieut. Swoyer, of Co. K. On the aft- ernoon of that day another battle ensued in that vicinity and the rebels were again driven back.


Notwithstanding these victories the army was obliged to retreat to Grand Ecore, a place strongly fortified, and there it remained until the 22d, when it proceeded to Alexandria by the 25th.


During this expedition the 47th marched 800 miles and lost by sickness, killed, wounded, and missing altogether 200 men.


On May 16th the army reached Simmsport and crossed to Atchafalya on a bridge of steam- ers. Subsequently it moved to New Orleans, where it was ordered to Washington, arriving July 12th.


At the capital, the 47th was engaged in ex-


pelling the rebels from Maryland. General Sheridan was placed in command of the forces which were re-organized and afterward known as the Army of the Shenandoah. On September 19th, the regiment was engaged in the battle of Opequan, occupying the right of the corps and fought with great gallantry. On the 2Ist it was deployed to skirmish and charge the ene- my's works, and the pursuit of the enemy was continued during the entire night. The regi- ment was then encamped at Cedar Creek.


On the 19th of October, the regiment partici- pated in the battle of Cedar Creek. It led in the pursuit of the enemy to Fisher's Hill. The next day the pursuit was ended. Capt. Minnich was killed, Capt. Goebel mortally wounded, and Capt. Oyster severely wounded. The total loss was 176 killed, wounded, and missing. The corps then fell back five miles to Winchester and went into winter quarters, which was changed on December 20th to Fairview, in the midst of a snow-storm. While there the regi- ment guarded the railroad and constructed works of defense; also participated in reconnoissance and skirmishes.


After the surrender of General Lee, on April 9th, the regiment moved by rail to Washington and encamped near Fort Stevens; and on May 23-24th, participated in the "grand review."


On June Ist the regiment was again ordered to Savannah, where it arrived on the 6th. In July it was at Charlestown, with headquarters in the mansion of the Confederate secretary of the treasury. Co. E was at Fort Moultrie, and Co. G at Fort Sumter. Many members fell vic- tims to disease and their remains now repose in Magnolia Cemetery.


On Jan. 3, 1866, the regiment embarked for New York, where it arrived, after a stormy passage, and proceeded by rail to Philadelphia ; and on the 9th of January it was mustered out at Camp Cadwalader, after a service of four years and four months. It had served in seven southern states, participated in exhausting cam- paigns, marched more than 1,200 miles, and made twelve voyages at sea. It was the only reg- iment from Pennsylvania that participated in the Red river campaign, or that served in that department prior to the surrender of Lee.
