FIFTY-SECOND REGIMENT.
1864
charged a two gun battery, mounting Brook's rifled guns, and carried it hand- somely. Fort Johnson was still four hundred yards in advance. The fire from the batteries and muskets of the fort had now grown hot, but there was no halt. The parapet was reached and scaled, shots were exchanged breast to breast over the crest, and the men of the Fifty-second jumped down into the works. The garrison were now fully aroused and at their posts. The long dis- tance traversed had destroyed somewhat the impetus of the assault, and the assailants had become separated in the steep ascent to the fort. The assaulting party, now outnumbered, found itself without support, and a glance back re- vealed the appalling fact, that through some mischance, none of the One Hun- dred and Twenty-seventh New York had landed. The struggle was hopeless . and.retreat was impossible. The entire party was, therefore, made prisoners of war, although the fort was fairly in their grasp. It had proved a complete surprise, and its very boldness bewildered the enemy.
The casualties in the Fifty-second were seven killed and sixteen wounded. Of the former was Lientenant S. A. Bunyan, of company E, acting Adjutant, and Lieutenant George Scott, of Company D.
"The boats," says General Foster in orders, " commanded by Colonel Hoyt, Lieutenant Colonel Conyngham, Captain Camp, and Lieutenants Stevens and Evans, all of the Fifty-second Pennsylvania, rowed rapidly to the shore, and these officers, with Adjutant Bunyan, (afterwards killed,) and one hundred and thirty-five men, landed and drove the enemy ; but deserted by their sup- ports, were obliged to surrender to superior numbers. Colonel Hoyt bestows unqualified praise on the officers and men who landed with them ; of these, seven were killed and sixteen wounded. They deserve great credit for their energy in urging their boats forward and bringing them through the narrow channel, and the feeling which led them to land at the head of their men was the prompting of a gallant spirit, which deserves to find more imitators." Of the men captured more than fifty perished amid the horrors' of Andersonville and Columbia. The officers were confined at Macon awhile, and afterwards in Charleston, and placed under the fire of the batteries on Morris Island.
The regiment remained on Morris Island during the summer and autumn of 1864. During this time the men became very expert in the use of the heavy guns which all the works mounted. It would be difficult to estimate the num- ber of thirty, one hundred, and two hundred pound shells thrown by them through rifled Parrotts into Charleston, some of them a distance of more than ten thousand yards. The dilapidated streets of the city itself were the best commentary on the strength of iron and " villainous saltpetre." One thirty- pounder Parrott withstood over four thousand six hundred discharges at an elevation of thirty-eight degrees.
During the winter the regiment performed duty as boat infantry. This duty was exceedingly difficult and arduous. It was the picket duty upon the har- bor. It involved great hardships and exposure. All through the long, bluster- ing, wintry nights the men sat with muskets, howitzers, and Requa batteries, peering across the iron-clad harbor; collisions with the enemy's pickets were frequent. At last, on the 18th of February, 1865, Major Hennessy in command, thought the shapelessruins of Sumter gave less evidence of vigilance than usual. Taking Lieutenant Burr, company B, and a picked boat-crew, and the old flag of the Fifty-second, he pulled boldly for her battered ruins. No one challenged him, as with zealous caution, he scaled her tough remains, and with a shout of

triumph for the first time heard in four long years, the old banner was again planted on its battlements. With all the tons of metal which had been hurled upon her, she was yet a safe and impregnable refuge for her garrison.
Major Hennessy now struck promptly, with his little detachment, for the city of Charleston. He stopped long enough at Pinckney to re-possess it, and landed at the battery before the rebel troops had fled from the city. The de- mand for its surrender was but a matter of form. Thus was consummated the capture of this stronghold of treason.
Later, as Sherman's legions marched throngh South Carolina, the Fifty-sec. ond joined them. Their march terminated in April, with Johnson's surrender near Raleigh. A few week's further duty at Salisbury, North Carolina, and the regiment was mustered ont of service at Harrisburg, on the 12th day of July, 1865.
