On the following morning, the division resumed the march, and passing through Boonsboro' and Keedysville, bivouacked for the night near the latter placc. On the 16th, the division was ordered with the corps to cross the An- tietam Creck, and attack the left flank of the enemy. The Bucktails, thrown forward as skirmishers, were soon engaged with a superior force, and the First Regiment, together with the brigade was ordered to their support, and succeeded in driving the enemy from his position, and in holding the ground, by keep- ing a strong skirmish line engaged during the night. So near were the pickets of the contending forces, that a squad of six men of the enemy were captured, having approached unawares to our line. At daylight on the 17th, the battle began, and notwithstanding the fatigue consequent upon the attack of the pre- ceding mght, the command entered the engagement with the vigor of fresh . troops, and after a fiercely contested fight was relieved about nine o'clock A. M., remaining, however, in line of battle on the field throughout the day, and sleeping on their arms at night. General Hooker having been wounded, turned over the command of his corps to General Meade, throwing General Seymour in command of the division, Colonel Roberts of the First Brigade, and Captain Talley of the regiment. These commands were assumed while on the field. The loss was five killed and twenty-three wounded.
On the 18th the regiment, with the division, moved near Sharpsburg, and on the day following marched as advance guard across the battle-field of the 17th, and encamped on the banks of the Potomac.
On Monday, September 22d, the command was ordered to Harper's Ferry, but before beginning the march the order was countermanded. Remaining in camp at Sharpsburg until October 26th, a movement was commenced towards Berlin, After a march of eight miles it encamped in a wood, under a pelting storm, which continued through the night, rendering sleep impossible. Crossing the Potomac near Berlin, the regiment passed through Lovettsville and Water- ford, and encamped near Hamilton.
In the latter part of October, 1862, Governor Curtin requested General M'- Clellan to accept the resignation of Colonel Roberts, that he might return to the Governor's staff. This request was granted, and the Colonel taking lcave of his regiment and com-patriots in arms, on the 2d of November, departed for his new field of labor, followed by the hearty regrets of his men. The attach- ment felt for him was never lessened. In the spring of 1864 they sent to him from the field a corps badge in gold, with an inscription of the names of the battles in which he had led them. At the State Capital Colonel Roberts was placed in charge of the arduous and responsible duties of the Executive Mili- tary Department.
Colonel Roberts was succeeded in command of the regiment by the ranking Captain, William Cooper Talley, of company F, who was subsequently com- missioned Colonel, to rank from that date. Captain W. W. Stewart, of com- pany K, was commissioned Lieutenant Colonel, and Captain T. B. Kauffman, of company I, Major. The regiment continued its march up the Loudon Val-

BATTLE OF FREDERICKSBURG.

ley until it encamped near Warrenton, on the evening of the 6th of November. On the following day General Burnside took command of the army of the Po- tomac, relieving General M'Clellan. The forces were immediately organized in three grand divisions of two corps each-designated as the Right, Centre and Left,* and commanded respectively by Sumner, Hooker and Franklin. The Pennsylvania Reserves, under General Meade, formed part of the First Corps commanded by General Reynolds, of the Left Grand Division. At this time, a part of Lee's army had reached Culpepper, and the remainder was scattered up and down the Shenandoah Valley, while the national army, having passed down east of the Blue Ridge and masked its movements by holding the passes, was assembled in the neighborhood of Warrenton. On the 16th of November, the movement towards Fredericksburg was commeneed. On Saturday, No- vember 22d, the regiment with the division, reached Brooks' Station on the Richmond and Potomac railroad, eneamping at this point until December 8th, whence it marched to White Oak Church. On Thursday, December 11th, it moved towards Fredericksburg, and on the following day erossed the Rappa- hannock, with Franklin's Grand Division, and taking position on the extreme left of the army, bivonacked upon the field. In the battle which ensned, the regiment occupied the right of the brigade, and moved in steady, unwavering line across an open plain under a heavy enfilading artillery fire; and when the order was given, charged the enemy with resistiess energy, crossing the rail- road and ditches, and driving him two hundred yards beyond his entrench- ments. Colonel Talley finding his regiment out-flanked on the right, with the enemy strongly reinforced in front, and no supports coming up in rear, was compelled to retire, after having opened the way to victory.t The following day passed without a renewal of the attack, and on the evening of Monday, the 15th, the army re-erossed the river, and the Reserves encamped near Belle Plain. In this engagement Colonel Talley led the regiment with great gallantry, as-
* The Right Grand Division was composed of the Second Corps, under General Couch, and the Ninth Corps, under General Wilcox. The Centre Grand Division of the Third Corps, un- der General Stoneman, and the Fifth Corps, under General Butterfield. The Left Grand Di- vision, of the First Corps, under General Reynolds, and the Sixth Corps, under General W. F. Smith.
t By twelve o'clock, most of the dispositions on our side were made, and General Meade be- gan to advance with earnestness and vigor. His division consisted of three brigades, of which the Third was on the left, the First on the right, closely followed by the Second. General Gib- bon's division was ordered to hold itself ready as a support. The troops went forward with great spirit and resolution. In handsome style they charged up the road, regardless of a hot fire from the enemy, crossed the railroad, ascended the heights beyond, broke through the enemy's first line, penetrated very nearly the enemy's second line, under General Taliaferro, and gained a position near Captain Hamilton's house, capturing and sending back three hun- dred prisoners and more. Nothing could be better than this gallant charge. It was made in the midst of a destructive fire of musketry in front, and a severe enfilading fire of artillery, and for a time carried everything before it. Finding an interval in the enemy's line, between the brigades of Archer and Lane, General Meade took advantage of it, and wedged his advance in turning the flanks of both brigades and throwing them into confusion. He next struck Gregg's brigade and broke it to pieces, with the loss of its commanding officer. General A. P. Hill's line was then pierced, and General Meade's next duty was to break the line of General Taliaferro. But this was not so easy. For an hour and a half had the gallant little division pushed forward in itsuccessful career. But it was now bearing the brunt of a contest with the entire corps of General Jackson, which had been ordered to meet the audacious attack, and it could not maintain itself without continued support. *
* * General Meade had come within a hair's breadth of achieving a great success. His attack had been so vigorous as to be almost a surprise. His troops had come upon the enemy, in some cases, before he had time to take the muskets from the stacks .- Burnside and the Ninth Army Corps, page 220.

THIRTIETH REGIMENT-FIRST RESERVE.
sisted by his faithful Adjutant, John C. Harvey, who had but recently been promoted from the ranks. The loss in the engagement, was two killed and thirty-four wounded. Though this loss was but small, when compared with that of troops operating in the immediate front of Fredericksburg, yet the sig- nal advantage gained in the whole battle, was gained by this part of the line; and had the successful assault here made been vigorously followed up, it would doubtless have resulted in a brilliant victory, instead of that bloody repulse which filled the land with gloom.
Burnside having again determined to cross the Rappahannock and offer battle, the march commenced on Tuesday, January 20th, but a rain-storm which continued three days, rendering the roads impassable, it was found necessary to abandon the attempt, and the regiment returned on Friday, January 23d, to the camp which it left on the preceding Tuesday, after a march of twenty- two miles, the men poorly clad, and whilst on the march, entirely without pro- tection from the weather.
On the 6th of February, the regiment broke camp, and marched to Fairfax Station, whence it was deployed along the Orange and Alexandria railroad for thepurpose of guarding the supplies of the army against the attack of Mosby and other guerrillas. Upon the assumption of chief command by General Hooker, the army was thoroughly re-organized in seven corps; the First under Rey- nolds, the Second under Couch, the Third under Sickles, the Sixth under Sedg- wick, the Eleventh under Howard and the Twelfth under Slocum. The Re- serves in this organization, formed a part of the Fifth corps, commanded by General Meade. In the Gettysburg campaign, Meade upon being relieved to take command of the army, was succeeded by General Sykes, and the Reserves were commanded by General Crawford.
On the 25th of June, the regiment broke camp at Fairfax, and joining in the general movement of the army, crossed the Potomac, and on the 27th, encamped on the Monocacy. On the 28th, it moved to Frederick, where it met the main body of the army. On the following day it took up the line of march for Get- tysburg. Upon crossing the Maryland line, Colonel Talley announced to his men that they had entered Pennsylvania, and would soon meet the enemy that had invaded its soil, and threatened the safety of their homes and families; that he knew his gallant men would not rest until the bold invaders were driven from the borders of their beloved State. Though greatly fatigued in consequence of forced marches, both officers and men united in enthusiastic de- monstrations of joy. Caps flew in air, swords were brandished, and the men shouted and sung National songs. Upon its arrival at Gettysburg, on the 2d of July, it was immediately formed in line of battle, where it remained nearly two hours. It wasthen moved to the left, re-formed on the right of Little Round Top, and charged the enemy with the most determined spirit, driving him back upon his reserves, and strewing the field with his dead.
On the 3d, in the charge which was made by the First Brigade, the First Regiment commanded by Colonel Talley, occupied the centre. In this brilliant movement, by a sudden change of direction, the enemy was struck on the flank and driven in great confusion. One hundred prisoners, one battle flag and a large number of small arms were captured. Company K, of this regiment, was from Gettysburg, many of the men fighting within sight of their own homes, and some even struggling to drive the invaders from their own fields. On the 5th of July, the regiment marched with the division in pursuit of the enemy.

1864
CAMPAIGN OF THE WILDERNESS.
Upon the retreat of Lee up the Shenandoah Valley, it again crossed the Poto- mac, and proceeded to the neighborhood of Culpepper, where, on the 1st of September, it encamped. It participated in the battle of Bristoe Station, the fruitless campaign to Mine Run, and in the numerous skirmishes and manden- vres in which the army of the Potomac participated, till the close of the year.
On the 1st of January, 1864, the regiment moved to Bristoe Station, with orders to keep open the communications between the defences of Washington and the front. In this position it went into winter quarters, where it continued until the commencement of the Wilderness campaign, under Grant. In the battle which opened on the 5th of May, the First brigade, under Colonel M'- Candless, was thrown forward to Parker's Store, to feel the enemy. The First Regiment was deployed on the left of the line. Colonel Talley was ordered to take two companies of his command through the woods to reconnoitre the position in his front. Approaching the plank road, he was fired upon from a corps of rebel troops that was moving up the road. Quickly returning, the facts were reported to General Crawford, who ordered him to withdraw his regiment and return to the main line of the army. On the second day of the - battle, the Reserves occupied a position in the centre of the line. Colonel Talley again made a reconnoissance with the regiment in the direction of Parker's Store, where the enemy was found in force, and the facts duly reported ; but the undergrowth in this portion of the field was so dense that it was impossible to penetrate it in line of battle. The regiment, together with the division, was moved at different times to weak points of the line, and at eleven o'clock on the 7th, it moved by the left flank.
At the opening of the battle of Spottsylvania, on the Sth of May, Colonel M'Candless was wounded. Colonel Talley accordingly succeeded to the command of the brigade, and Lieutenant Colonel Stewart to the command of the regiment. While charging the enemy for a third time, being on the right and front of his brigade, and riding through a dense undergrowth of pine, Colonel Talley was captured by forces of Ewell's corps. On the following day, while on his way to Richmond with three hundred and forty other Union prisoners, he was re- taken near Beaver Dam Station, by Sheridan's cavalry, and re-joined the regi- ment at the North Anna.
On the 31st of May, the last day of service for the Reserves, the regiment, commanded by Colonel Talley, participated in the battle of Bethesda Church, taking a conspicuous part and assisting to achieve a brilliant victory. On the 1st day of June, 1864, together with the division, the regiment left the army, and proceeded via White House to Washington, and thence through Harris- burg to Philadelphia, where, on the 13th of June, it was mustered out of ser- vicc. The whole number mustered into the regiment was one thousand and eighty-four. Of these, one hundred and thirty-ninc were killed or died in the field, two hundred and thirty-three were wounded, two hundred and fifty-eight were discharged for disability contracted in the service, and one hundred and forty-eight re-enlisted as veterans.
