SIXTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT.


T THE Sixty-eighth Regiment was recruited in the city of Philadelphia, and in the adjacent counties of Montgomery and Chester, during the summer of 1862, the first company being mustered in on the 4th of August, and the regiment completely organized and in the service by the 1st of September. The camp of rendezvous was established at Frankford, a suburb of Philadel- phia. The following were its field officers : Andrew H. Tippin, of Philadelphia, Colonel; A. H. Reynolds, of Philadelphia, Lieutenant Colonel; Thomas Hawks- worth, of Philadelphia, Major. Colonel Tippin had seen service in Mexico as Lieutenant in the Eleventh United States Infantry, where he was twice bre- veted for gallant conduct in the battles of Contreras, Cherubusco, and Molino del Rey, and had served as Major in the Twentieth Regiment for three months service. Captain Winslow, subsequently Lieutenant Colonel, and others, both officers and men, were in service in Mexico, and in the three months' regiments.


The defeat of our arms, in Pope's campaign of Northern Virginia, conclud- ing with Chantilly, caused the National authorities to summon, peremptorily, troops which had been mustered, and the Sixty-eighth was ordered to move at once. Though above the minimum, its ranks were not up to the maximum standard, and the men were only partially uniformed and equipped. But re- sponding promptly to the order, it broke camp on the evening of September 1st and proceeded to Washington. The army was just then falling back to the heights around the Capital. The regiment was immediately ordered across the Potomac, and went into camp on Arlington Heights. Here it was armed, and furnished with a complete outfit for an active campaign. It was assigned to Robinson's Brigade of Stoneman's Division.


Soon after the battle of Antietam, the regiment moved from camp, and pass- ing through Georgetown, proceeded to Poolsville, arriving on the 10th of Oc- tober, the day on which the rebel Generals Stuart and Hampton, with a force of cavalry, made their famous raid on Chambersburg, and a complete circuit of the Union army. Intelligence soon spread of the daring ride, and the regi- ment was marched rapidly to Conrad's Ferry, in expectation that the bold raiders would attempt to cross the Potomac on their return into Virginia, at this point. But they made for a ford considerably lower down the stream, and passed over. without opposition. After remaining several days in the vicinity of the ferry, it re-joined the brigade and proceeded southward with the rest of the army. While on the march the rebel cavalry under White suddenly dashed in upon the train moving with the brigade, and captured wagons belonging to the Sixty- eighth, containing officers' baggage, books, papers, and camp and garrison equipage, over-powering and making prisoners of the feeble guard which had it in charge. About forty of the Sixty-eighth were taken, who were sent to Richmond and kept in confinement several months.

SIXTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT.


1862


In the re-organization of the army, which was made upon the assumption of chief command by General Burnside, the regiment was assigned to the First. Brigade,* General Robinson, First Division, General Birney, Third Corps, General Sickles. It was determined to offer battle at Fredericksburg. In the plan of operations it was arranged that Franklin, with the left Grand Division, supported by a part of Hooker's, should cross below the town and attack upon the left, while Sumner, remaining in front supported by the balance of Hooker's Corps, should, at the opportune moment, cross and give battle upon the right. ' Accordingly, on the morning of the 13th of December, Franklin, having forced a passage, attacked with the Pennsylvania Reserves, supported by Gibbon and Doubleday, and finding his attacking column too weak, at the last moment ordered forward Birney's Division. The Sixty-eighth had been encamped near Falmouth, but on the 12th broke camp and moved down to the heights overlooking the field where Franklin's Grand Division, on the opposite side of the river, had taken position, and remained there until the 13th. It was not until afternoon and until the battle was in progress on the left, that the order to cross was given. When it finally came, the divsion moved at double- quick, crossed the bridge, and moved up under a heavy artillery fire, reaching the field just as the Reserves under Meade were forced back from the heights. followed closely by the triumphant foe. The Sixty-eighth was ordered to sup- port Randolph's First Rhode Island Battery, which at this critical juncture was being rapidly served and doing fearful execution. The regiment remained in this position, exposed to the enemy's answering fire, and defending the guns from infantry attack, until the heat of the engagement was past. As soon as the cannonading ceased, it was ordered into position in the first line with the brigade, close to the enemy's front. For two days it remained in this position, but beyond occasional pieket firing, was not further engaged. On the night of the 15th the brigade was relieved by the Second Brigade, which had been in the rear, and under cover of darkness re-crossed the river. The loss was abont forty killed and wounded. Major Hawksworth was mortally wounded, and Lieutenant Joseph E. Davis among the killed.
