THIRTY-FIRST REGIMENT, SECOND RESERVE .*
INTHE Second Reserve Regiment was principally recruited in the city of Phila- delphia, under the direction of William B. Mann, and the companies were mustered into the State service during the last week in May by Captain Henry J. Biddle, Assistant Adjutant General of Militia. Most of the men were sup- plied with flannel shirts and other articles of clothing by the congregations of the different churches in the city, prominent among which was that of Old Christ Church, which contributed no less than four thousand five hundred articles. On the 29th of May the Philadelphia companies marched to the resi- dence of Colonel Mann, where they were presented with a magnificent and richly trimmed silk flag, the gift of a number of ladies, the presentation being made by Daniel Dougherty, Esq., and after the ceremonies were concluded pro- ceeded by rail to Camp Washington, near the city of Easton. This camp was located on the Fair Ground of the Farmers' and Mechanics' Institute, compris- ing about thirty acres, situated on a level plateau a mile and a half west of the city, and half a mile north of the Lehigh river. The camp, under the command of Colonel Mann, was at once put in order, and stringent regulations were established for its government.
The disasters at Bull Run, caused the government to call loudly upon the States for organized troops. Fortunately the Pennsylvania Reserves were ready for duty. July 24th, the Second Regiment broke camp at Easton, and moved by rail to Harrisburg where it bivouacked at Camp Curtin. Most of the Reserve regiments were mustered into the United States service before leaving the State; but as it would cause some delay to muster the Second before start- ing, Colonel Mann, with the consent of the Governor, proceeded to Baltimore without being properly in the United States service. Upon its arrival it was reported to General Dix, but, having no orders, he refused to receive it, and the command moved on to Sandy Hook, near Harper's Ferry, in the department then commanded by Major General Banks. The regiment at this time num- bered one thousand and one, officers and men, all in neat new uniforms and presenting an unusually attractive appearance. The morning after its arrival was excessively hot, and after partaking of coffee and hard tack it moved to Pleasant Valley, a table land about a mile back from, and some four hundred feet above the Potomac. Arriving without orders, General Banks at first re- fused to accept them, but afterwards assigned them camping grounds and ap-

plied to the War Department for orders. Still, no authority existed for drawing rations, except such as the officers would be responsible for. To add to its misfortunes, there was a lack of unity of purpose among the field officers. The minds of the men also were poisoned with the idea, that being ont of the State of Pennsylvania, and not mustered into the United States service, there was no power to hold them. Discontent continued, and when, on the 1st of Angust, Lieutenant Colonel Fitz John Porter was sent by General Banks to muster the men into the service of the United States, nearly one-fourth of their number refused to be mustered. On the following morning the whole command was again called up, and those who had taken the oath on the preceding day were informed that they must again be sworn, when a still larger number refused, amounting to three hundred and twenty men. These were then taken to Col- onel Thomas' headquarters, where they were ordered to stack arms, divest themselves of their uniforms and accoutrements, and officers were detailed to conduet them to Philadelphia. Upon the return of the officers to their regiment, they found, to their amazement, that the men whom they had left in camp, and who had twice taken the oath before, had, on that day, been called on for a third time to be sworn in. Finding it easier to get out of the service than to stay in it, many returned and entered other organizations, until there remained but about four hundred of the thousand and one who marchicd through Balti- more two weeks before. The saying became eurrent in camp that it was ucces- sary for a good soldier to carry a Bible for the purpose of taking his oath.
On the 14th of August, the regiment was called out and marched hurriedly to Berlin, fonr miles below, where a party of rebels had been making demon- strations. An old iron twelve-pounder eannon with its muzzle knocked off, chained to the front wheels of a wagon, had been posted by the enemy on the hills to command the village, but by a dexterons movement the piece was snatched from their grasp and was stationed on a pier of the bridge so as to cover the town. Not being provided with grape shot, the braces of the bridge were ent into sings and used instead. Remaining until the town was safe the regiment returned to eamp.
On the 16th it again broke eamp and moved through Buekeystown and Urbana to Hyattstown. Here an order was issued by General Banks disbanding companies B, F, G and I, on the ground of their numbers being below the stan- dard of acceptance-all the companies having been greatly reduced by the with- drawal of the disaffected men-the officers to be mustered out and the men to be transferred to other companies. This order operated unjustly upon the line officers, but it was acquiesced in, in the hope that new companies would be as- signed to fill the places of those made vacant. "The officers discharged were Captains P. M'Donough, T. Bringhurst, E. M. Woodward and William Knox; First Lieutenants John D. Shock, George W. Kite, John K. Brown and Thos. Wier; Second Lieutenants John Gill, William Edwards and John H. Jack. One Lieutenant was not discharged, another discharged who had resigned a month before, and had not been mustered into the United States service. Cap- tain M'Donongh raised another company, joined the regiment at Camp Pierpont, Virginia, and was subsequently promoted Lieutenant Colonel. Captain Wood- ward entered the ranks, was appointed Sergeant Major of the regiment, and at the battle of Antietam was appointed Adjutant. Captain Knox was ap- pointed Sutler, and continued with the regiment until May, 1862. Of the Lieu- tenants, John H. Jack returned with Captain M'Donongh, was wounded at the
