The part taken by the regiment in the Chancellorsville campaign is clearly shown by the following extract from Major Opp's official report : "After severe marches, occupying a period of five days from the 28th of April, we were brought in contact with the enemy on the afternoon of the 2d of May. In a reconnoissance made by two divisions of the Third Corps, to the left of Chan- cellorsville, and in the vicinity of an old furnace, the regiment was ordered to advance in line, with flanking companies thrown forward as skirmishers, to unmask the position of the enemy. Under the immediate supervision of Col- onel Bowman, commanding the brigade, the object was successfully and band- somely attained, with the loss of only two men wounded. On the morning of the 3d, at daylight, we were judiciously and strongly posted to the left of the plank road, and to the left of Chancellorsville, as a reserve force. The attack of the enemy had continued but a short time, when one line to the front of us gave way. Colonel Bowman's orders to the Eighty-fourth and the One Hun.

dred and Tenth, to advance and occupy the position just abandoned, were promptly and gallantly executed. The old lines were re-gained, and held for about an hour and until all the regiments on the right and left of the Eighty- fourth had retired, leaving us in an isolated and exposed position. In the hope that reinforcements would arrive, I still held the men in place, maintain- ing a steady and effective fire to the front. It was discovered, however, that a large force of the enemy had succeeded, by making an extensive detour under cover of a dense wood, in gaining our rear, where he was supported by a vigorous enfilading fire from several guns, planted on an eminence to our front and left. It became obvious that to remain was equivalent to capture in a body, while to retreat was perilous in the extreme. The latter alternative was adopted. The retreat was executed in good order, but not without heavy losses and severe fighting. In numerous instances the men clubbed their mus- kets in hand-to-hand encounters. Parties who had been overpowered, seizing opportune moments, took up guns at hand, demanded and obtained the sur- render of many of their captors. Lieutenant Farley of company F, who had been captured in the strife, headed a number of our men, and succeeded in extricating himself, and in capturing one Captain, two Lieutenants, and twenty-five men. These, with five men captured before the retreat began, made an aggregate of thirty-three rebel prisoners taken by the regiment. Our own losses were necessarily heavy, from the peculiarity of the situation. Of three hundred and ninety-one officers and men engaged, two hundred and nineteen were killed, wounded and missing. Captain Jacob Peterman was among the killed, and Captain C. G. Jackson, Lieutenants William Hays, Albert Steinman, John R. Ross, George S. Good, and Assistant Surgeon John S. Waggoner severely wounded, most of whom fell into the enemy's hands."


The regiment participated in the operations of the brigade, on the new line taken up on the morning of the 4th, but without further casualties. Geu- eral Whipple was killed in this engagement and the losses of his division were so great that it was broken up and the regiments assigned to other commands. The Eighty-fourth became part of General Carr's Brigade of the Second Corps, and was separated from the One Hundred and Tenth, with which it had served from its entrance to duty. On the 11th of June Colonel Bowman was ordered to special duty, and never afterward re-joined the regiment. In December pre- vions, Major Milton Opp had been promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, and Cap- tain George Zinn, to Major.


In the Gettysburg campaign, the regiment, upon its arrival at Taneytown, Maryland, was detailed as guard to the corps train, and immediately pro- ceeded with it to Westminster, where it was employed in forwarding supplies to the battle-field, a vitally important duty, but one devoid of heroic incident.


Upon the return of the army to Virginia, the regiment was engaged at Wapping Heights, on the 24th of July, in the neighborhood of Thoroughfare Gap on the 10th of October, at Freemau's Ford in a sharp skirmish on the 13th, at Bristoe Station on the 14th and again on the 19th, at Kelly's Ford on the 7th of November, at Jacob's Ford on November 27th, at Locust Grove on the 28th, and at Mine Run on the 30th, losing four men mortally wounded, five slightly wounded, five missing, and one officer, Lieutenant Good, captured. At the conclusion of the campaign the regiment returned to the neighborhood of Brandy Station, where it went into winter-quarters. In January, 1864, a considerable number of the regiment re-enlisted, and were given a veteran

furlough. On the 6th of February the enemy crossed the Rapidan in some force, and the Eighty-fourth moved with the column sent against him. He was driven back and one hundred of his men were taken prisoners.,


.


. Upon the opening of the Wilderness campaign, the regiment moved with the corps by the Germania Ford, and while marching on south along the Fred- ericksburg Road, on the afternoon of the 5th of May, the enemy was discovered moving down in heavy force upon its flank. Line of battle was immediately formed and advanced to meet him, the fighting becoming general along the whole line, extending for miles. On the following day the fighting was very severe, and proved particularly disastrous to the Eighty-fourth, resulting in the loss of many brave men. Lieutenant Colonel Opp, while leading in a charge, received a wound through the right lung, which proved a mortal hurt. He was a brave man, and sincerely mourned by his men. On the 7th the regi- ment moved on towards the left, and on the 8th near Spottsylvania Court House, company K had a brisk skirmish. At Pamunky River on the 10th, the regiment was again engaged driving the enemy across the stream. On the morning of the 12th it joined in the brilliant charge of Hancock's Corps, carrying elaborate lines of works, and making large captures of men and guns. The following extract from a diary of Captain L. B. Sampson, will convey some idea of the arduous service of the regiment in this campaign : "May 14th skirmished-moved to the right-skirmished all the afternoon ; 16th Jay in line all day; 17th fought on the picket line-drove the enemy into his works; 18th skirmished all day; 19th marched to Spottsylvania Court House; 20th lay in line of battle all day-received a good shelling; 21st marched to Guiney Station, thence to Bowling Green, thence to Milford Station on the Po River ; 22d rested all day ; 23d marched to the North Anna-charged and carried the rebel works-company K volunteering to hold a bridge-a warm time they had of it; 24th crossed the river under a heavy fire; 25th and 26th rested; 27th marched to the Pamunky and crossed at Hanover City; 29th skirmished and built works; 30th lay in the works all day; 31st our brigade, Colonel Blaisdell commanding, fought the first battle of Pleasant Hill; June 1st our regiment had a sharp skirmish at Pleasant Hill-we lost a good many men for a small fight." In this latter engagement, Lieutenant Nixon, who had saved the regiment from capture at Bull Run by his timely signal, even at the peril of his life, was again severely wounded with the loss of his left arm.


Such was the general character of the service until the regiment reached the James on the 14th of June, when it crossed and was at once engaged in the operations of the siege of Petersburg. Advancing the lines, building fortifi- cations, and defending the ground gained, interspersed with occasional assaults, filled up the measure of its duty until the 27th of July, when it re-crossed the James, and had part in the engagement at Deep Bottom. Returning to the lines in front of Petersburg it was again engaged in the varied duties of the siege until the 14th of August, when it again moved to Deep Bottom, and in the sharp engagement which ensued, the enemy was driven out of his works at Charles City Cross Roads, and some prisoners taken. Returning again to Petersburg, it resumed its place upon the works. On the 1st of October it moved by rail with the corps to Yellow House, and thence marched to the extreme left of the lines. The first line of the enemy's works was charged and carried. The second line was charged, but the column was repulsed. Lienten-

ant Colonel Zinn had command of the assaulting party, and while urging on his men, in the final charge, was severely wounded.


In October, the men whose terms of service had expired were mustered out and the veterans and recruits were organized in a battalion of four companies, which remained on duty until the 13th of January, 1865, when it was consoli- dated with the Fifty-seventh Pennsylvania, and thenceforward until the end of the war, formed part of that organization. The battalion participated in the operations of the corps upon the Weldon Railroad on the 27th of October, and again on the 9th of December, in the latter destroying the road as far as Belle- field Station. Upon the consolidation of the battalion with the Fifty-seventh, Lieutenant Colonel Zinn became Colonel, George W. Perkins, Lieutenant Colo. nel, and Captain Samnel Bryan, Major. The Fifty-seventh was finally mus- tered out of service on the 20th of June, 1865.
