CHAPTER XVIII.
LUZERNE IN THE CIVIL WAR-HISTORIES OF THE FORTY- SIXTH AND FIFTIETH REGIMENTS.
HE Logan Guards, of Mifflin county, one of the first five companies of volunteers that reached Washington on the breaking out of the Rebellion, became Company A of the 46th regiment. Companies C and D also served in three months' regiments, and preserved their company organizations in this.
The 46th was organized September Ist, 1861, with Joseph F. Knipe colonel, James L. Selfridge lieutenant colonel, and Arnold C. Lewis major. On the death of Major Lewis, who was shot by a private of Company I soon after the organization of the regiment, J. A. Mat- thews became major.
Soon after the organization of the 46th it was ordered to the command of General Banks, near Harper's Ferry, and was assigned to the Ist brigade, General Crawford, 2nd division, General Williams. Camp duty, drill and occasional skirmishing occupied the regiment till the lat- ter part of February, 1862; when, with the rest of Banks's forces, it crossed the Potomac and occupied successively Leesburg, Charlestown, Martinsburg and Winchester. In an engagement near Kernstown three companies of the 46th, under Major Matthews, participated, and in the pursuit of Jackson by Banks the regiment took an active part.
At the severe and unequal contest with the rebels under Jackson at Winchester the 46th held its ground for five hours without flinching. At the battle of Cedar Moun- tain, in August, 1862, the regiment charged three times across an open field, exposed to a terrific fire of shot, shell and musketry, and only retired after the colonel, major and several of the line officers were wounded. The 46th was again engaged at the battle of Antietam, where it was again commanded by Colonel Selfridge. The reg- iment was next engaged at Chancellorsville, after having wintered at Fairfax Station and Stafford Court-house.
At the battle of Gettysburg the regiment was engaged heavily, but by reason of it sheltered position it did not lose largely. After the battle of Gettysburg the 12th corps, of which the 46th was a part, was detached from the Army of the Potomac and sent west. The first duty to which the regiment was assigned was guarding the Chattanooga Railroad through a country infested with guerrillas.
In January, 1864. a sufficient number of the officers and men of this regiment having re-enlisted to insure its continuance, they were given a veteran furlough. During its visit at home its ranks were recruited, and after its return it remained in winter quarters till the next May. In the campaign that followed the 46th was engaged at Resaca, where, among others, Lieutenant John H. Knipe, of Company I, was killed. It participated successively in the actions at Pumpkinvine creek, New Hope Church, Dallas, Pine Knob, Kenesaw Mountain and Marietta, in all of which it had fourteen killed and about thirty wounded. In the severe fight with Hood at Peach Tree Creek, near Atlanta, the 46th lost ten killed and twenty wounded. In another action with Hood near Atlanta it lost six killed and several wounded.
The regiment had no severe fighting after the surrender of Atlanta, September Ist, 1864. General Knipe, who had been promoted, was transferred to the command of cavalry, and the 46th, under Major Griffith (Colonel Selfridge, whose promotion had followed that of General Knipe, being in command of the brigade), went on its march through Georgia and the Carolinas, after which it commenced its march homeward. It was mustered out July 16th, 1865.
Company I of the forty-sixth was recruited in Luzerne county, and we give below a synopsis of the records of its members, together with a similar statement in regard to the regimental officers, The first date given is that of muster-in; where not otherwise stated, each man was mustered out with the regiment, July 16th, 1865.
