On the 10th the division advanced through a wood, again charged and was again repulsed, Lieutenant Bemesderfer being wounded. Remaining behind breast-works until the 12th, the regiment participated in the last charge at Spottsylvania, but was repulsed with considerable loss.
On the 23d, the regiment crossed the North Anna, and had just halted, when the enemy suddenly opened upon the brigade with artillery, at the same time sending forward his infantry. A severe engagement, which lasted for an hour, ensued. After being slightly engaged on the 26th, at Bethesda Church, the regiment arrived on the 6th of June at Cold Harbor, where it remained in reserve, and on the 12th, at White Oak Swamp, where a line of works was thrown up and the brigade placed in position to prevent the enemy from flanking the army, now on the march towards the James River. The enemy immediately opened with artillery upon the line, and Captain George B. Rhoads, commanding the regiment, a young, brave, and valuable officer, was killed. Skirmishing continued during the day, and on the 13th the command withdrew, and marched towards the James, crossing on the 16th, and halting in front of Petersburg. On the night of the 17th, it pushed forward under a heavy artil- lery fire in support of a portion of the corps which had been actively engaged. On the morning of the 18th, the regiment advanced slowly, crossing the Nor- folk and Petersburg Railroad, and driving the enemy's skirmishers into their main line of works. About five P. M., the whole corps charged upon his entrench- ments. The Eighty-eighth was in advance and after getting within sixty yards of his first line, was compelled to lie flat upon the ground, a terrific fire of artillery being centred upon that portion of the line. Night coming on, slight earth-works were thrown up with the aid of bayonets, the regiment being so far in advance of the rest of the division that it could not be withdrawn or re-inforced. The colors were sent to the rear, Sergeant Ewing, of Company D, who had originally enlisted as a drummer boy, crawling back with them. About midnight small spades were sent out to the command, the bearers being compelled to crawl along the ground, the enemy's sharp-shooters having com- plete control of the position. By daylight, sufficient entrenchments had been thrown up to afford some protection, and in the afternoon the regiment was relieved. Arriving at the railroad, it was ordered to the left of the brigade, and compelled to march over an exposed piece of ground, upon which his sharp-

shooters were directing their fire. The loss here was about thirty killed and wounded, Lieutenant Atwood G. Sinn being among the killed. Moving to the left it went into position at the Jerusalem Plank Road, and was engaged in building forts and entrenchments. On the 30th of July it moved to the extreme left of the entire line, where the regiment was engaged on picket duty until the 18th, when it marched to the Weldon Railroad, meeting with but slight resist- ance. Assisting for a few hours in destroying the railroad, the command was advanced along the road towards Petersburg, and filed into a dense wood where fortifications were thrown up. The enemy soon commenced a sharp skirmish fire at various portions of the line, as if to test its strength, when suddenly he charged upon the right of the division, breaking through, taking many pri- soners, and gaining the rear of the brigade. Orders were given to jump to the other side of the works and open fire. The wood was composed of dense un- derbrush, and the enemy became scattered. Taking advantage of his confu- sion, the brigade charged through, routing him, taking some prisoners, and reaching an open space in the rear under cover of the Union batteries. Here it re-formed, and while returning to its first position, Captain Jacob Houder, commanding the regiment, was instantly killed. Early on the following morn- . ing it marched to the left to support the First Division, which had been attack- ed, and the enemy was repulsed with great slaughter. A few days later the regiment was actively engaged in building fortifications, among which was Fort Dushane, and on its completion, the Eighty-eighth was ordered to gar- rison it.
On the 11th of November two hundred conscripts were received, making about three hundred and fifty officers and inen for duty. On the 7th of De- cember the regiment joined in the movement on the Jerusalem Plank Road, extending to the South Side Railroad. On the 5th of February, 1865, it moved towards Hatcher's Run, and on the 6th, after a severe fight of about two hours near Dabney's Mill, was repulsed. The next day it encountered the enemy at Hatcher's Run and suffered severe loss, Lieutenants Sylvester H. Martin and Edward L. Gilligan being among the severely wounded.
The regiment went into camp near Hatcher's Run, and remained until the 29th of March, when it joined in active operations, being hotly engaged and- losing Lieutenant Daniel J. Lehman killed, and Lieutenant M'Callicher wounded. On the 1st of April it was again engaged, losing Captain Thomas J. Koch killed. With the Fifth Corps it participated in the marching and fighting which ensued, until the 9th, when Lee surrendered and it commenced the homeward march. Passing through Petersburg, Manchester, and Rich- mond, it proceeded to Washington, where, on the 30th of June, 1865, it was mustered out of service.
