NINETY-NINTH REGIMENT.
1864
Early in February, 1864, a large proportion of the men re-enlisted and were given a furlough. They returned to Philadelphia, where recruiting was ac- tively prosecuted, and at the end of the furlough, on the 30th of March, re- ported at Chester Barracks, from whence two days later they proceeded to the front, reaching the old quarters at Brandy Station on the 7th. In the mean- time the Third Corps had been broken up, and the old Kearny, Birney Divi- sion, had been transferred to the Second Corps, now known as the Third Divi- sion, and the Second Brigade, to which the Ninety-ninth had been attached, had been changed to the First, General Ward being still in command of it. Upon the retirement of Colonel Leidy from the command of the regiment on the 9th of April, Lieutenant Colonel Biles was commissioned Colonel, and Major Moore, Lieutenant Colonel.
.
The regiment moved from camp on the spring campaign, under Grant, at evening on the 3d of May, and at four o'clock P. M. of the 5th, met the enemy in the Wilderness. It occupied a position on the extreme left of the division, and maintained its ground during the entire night. Captain Fritz was sc- verely wounded, but remained with his command. At daylight on the morn- ing of the 6th, it advanced with the brigade, the Third Maine and the Fortieth New York having been changed to its left. The First Division of the corps was forced back, and after a severe struggle of two hours the Third also re- tired to the breast-works at the Brock Road, where at four in the afternoon Longstreet, who was following up this retrograde movement, was checked, and finally driven with great slaughter. The loss in the engagement was sev- enty-one killed and wounded. Lieutenant Christopher Smith was among the killed. In a circular issued by General Birney at seven in the evening, the Ninety-ninth Pennsylvania and the Twentieth Indiana were specially thanked for their gallantry in the battle, these two regiments having maintained their position after the entire line beside had been driven back.
Remaining behind the breast-works until five P. M. of the 7th, it was with the rest of the brigade ordered to Chancellorsville to protect the train, but returned at eleven. On the following morning it moved with the army south, the enemy being unwilling to come out from his works, and at eleven arrived at Todd's Tavern, where it took position in battle line, the left resting on the Spottsylvania Court House Road, and threw up breast-works. On the after- noon of the 9th, with the Twentieth Indiana and One Hundred and Twenty- fourth New York, it crossed the Ny River as division skirmishers. On the morning of the 10th, with the Twentieth and a section of artillery, under the immediate command of General Birney, it crossed the Po River on a recon- noissance, and upon its return was sent to the assistance of General Barlow's Division, which had crossed below and was employed in throwing up breast- works. The part which the regiment bore in the charge of the Second Corps, on the 12th of May, is briefly told in the following extract from the report of the action : " At balf past two A. M. of the 12th, we arrived in rear of Spottsyl- vania Court House, our regiment being on the right of the brigade of the first line of battle. At half past three we advanced at quick time until we reached the enemy's skirmishers, when we charged upon the run. The men poured into the breast-works and advanced along them to the right, the enemy para- lyzed by the suddenness of the blow. Two battle flags and two pieces of ar- tillery were captured by the Ninety-ninth, and we claim a fair share of the seven thousand prisoners taken on that memorable morning. As we advanced

upon the enemy's second line, Captain Louis F. Waters and Lieutenant Henry S. Zeisert fell mortally wounded, and Colonel Biles, pierced with five wounds, was carried from the field." The command then devolved on Captain Fritz, who held his position in the enemy's second line for half an hour, when he was forced to fall back to the first, and being himself severely wounded, was succeeded by Lieutenant Thomas A. Kelly, and shortly after by Captain Uhler. there being but four officers and sixty men left, out of the three hundred and twenty-five who had crossed the Rapidan.
Great losses had been sustained and but little advantage gained by tho army ; but the determination to go forward was unwavering. Intrenching, manœuvring, and fighting until the 17th without any substantial success, at, ten P. M. of that day, the Ninety-ninth and Twentieth Indiana were ordered to carry the enemy's second line, which had been temporarily occupied on the 12th. This was successfully accomplished before morning. On the following day Lieutenant Colonel Moore, who had been in command of the Seventeenth Maine, returned and resumed command of the regiment, and with the brigade moved to meet the enemy who had attacked the trains. At day-light of the 20th the line again advanced and captured several hundred prisoners. At the Matapony and the North Anna, the enemy was met and driven, and on the 28th the regiment crossed the Pamunky. On the following day the veterans and recruits of the Twenty-sixth regiment were assigned to the Ninety-ninth. Lieutenant Colonel Moore, on account of sickness, was sent to hospital, and the command again devolved on Captain Uhler.
On the 14th of June the brigade crossed the James, and moving up, joined in the operations before Petersburg, which were prosecuted with vigor, with considerable loss in killed and wounded, embracing Lieutenants Isidor Hirsch and Matthew N. Heiskill among the killed. On the 26th of July, with the corps, it crossed the Appomattox and the James, and proceeded to Deep Bot- tom, where the Ninety-ninth and One Hundred and Tenth, both under com- mand of Colonel Biles, were ordered to reconnoitre the woods in front of the lines. As they advanced, the enemy opened fire, and when they had reached the edge of the woods they were deployed as skirmishers. They were exposed to a heavy fire from the infantry in front, and a hot shelling from a battery of twenty-pounder Parrott guns on the left, but steadily held their position and soon drove the enemy from their front. The First Division having captured the battery, which had proved very annoying, the line was ordered to move forward, and a picket linc was established by the command upon the road at the extreme point of the advance. On the evening of the 28th these regiments were relieved and ordered to the rear. Upon the return of the corps to the lines before Petersburg, General Hancock, in command, issued a congratula- tory order, in which he said, " While all the troops who kept their ranks and sustained the arduous marches are deserving of praise, the following organi- zations seem to merit particular mention : * *
* * and the skirmish line of General Mott's Division, General De Trobriand's Brigade, particularly the Ninety-ninth and One Hundred and Tenth Pennsylvania Volunteers, under the command of Colonel E. R. Biles, for good conduct and bravery in the se- vere action on the right of the battery."
On the 12th of August the regiment moved with the corps on a second demonstration upon the enemy's lines at Deep Bottom. The regiment was immediately deployed as skirmishers, and crossing the breast-works at ten

A. M. of the 14th, thrown up by the division in its former operations, advanced at double quick towards the enemy's entrenchments, and succeeded in estab- lishing a skirmish line. At three in the afternoon it again advanced under a heavy fire, and halted within seven hundred yards of the enemy's works, driv- ing his skirmishers and capturing seventy-five prisoners. Here it remained during the night, and early on the following morning was saluted by a rapid fire. At nine A. M. it was relieved. Captain Tomlinson was severely wounded. Colonel Biles was wounded, but remained upon the field, and eleven men were more or less severely wounded.
On the 1Sth the division was detached and ordered to report for special duty to General Meade, in front of Petersburg, and upon its arrival relieved a division of the Ninth Corps on the front line of works, the regiment being stationed on the right of Fort Rice. On the 9th of September Colonel Biles, in command of his own, the Twenty-second Indiana, and the Second United States Sharpshooters, moved out to the left, and deploying in front of Fort Hell, by means of sap-tools, succeeded in establishing a new line of pits, one hundred yards in advance of the old line. At eleven in the evening Major Fritz, in command of the Ninety-ninth, in obedience to a signal from Colonel Biles, advanced by the flank from the woods on the left of the Jerusalem Plank Road and captured two hundred prisoners, maintaining his position until day dawn. The Seventeenth Maine, which connected with the regiment on the right, was driven back, leaving a gap in the line of one hundred yards. See- ing this, Major Fritz ordered his regiment to fall back to the line of pits dug during the night. In executing this hazardous movement Captain Kelly and fifty-two men were taken prisoners, Lieutenant Ellsler was killed, and ten men wounded. A special order from General Hancock, npon this exploit, contained the following complimentary sentiments: "The Major General commanding takes great pleasure in expressing his gratification with the good conduct of the troops engaged in the successful affair of the morning of the 10th inst., resulting in the dislodgement and capture of a considerable portion of the enemy's picket line which had for a long time been in too close proximity to our lines. The troops immediately engaged were the Ninety-ninth Pennsyl- vania, the Twentieth Indiana, and Second United States Sharpsbooters, under command of Colonel E. R. Biles. The officers and men remaining amongst the enemy's pickets during the following day, refusing to surrender, and re- turning to their command at night when the new lines were established, are thought worthy of particular mention."
On the evening of the 1st of October the regiment proceeded by rail to Yellow House, and thence marched to the extreme left of the lines at Poplar Grove Church, where it had sharp skirmishing, and at evening fell back to Peeble's House, having lost during the day ten men wounded. On the 2d it again advanced and was all day engaged in skirmishing. On the 5th it re- turned to its former position, and Colonel Biles, with four regiments, was or- dered to the occupation of a portion of the line, the Ninety-ninth, Lieutenant Colonel Fritz in command, at Fort Hell, the One Hundred and Tenth Penn- sylvania at Batteries 20 and 21, the Seventy-third New York at Fort Sedg- wick, and the Eighty-sixth New York in reserve. The regiment remained in this position until October 23d, when it moved ont to the Boydton Plank Road, Colonel Biles in command of the brigade, where it was warmly engaged, losing ten men killed, and Captain Bonnaffon and Lieutenants Robinson and

Potts, and twenty-three men, wounded. Upon its return, the regiment re-oc- cupied Fort Hell, where it remained until the 30th of November, when it again proceeded to the extreme left, and was employed in picketing the line. On the 7th of December it joined in the expedition upon the Weldon Railroad, and after passing Jarrett's Station commenced the destruction of the road, which was continued a distance of two miles beyond Bellefield. This work accomplished, the regiment returned and went into winter-quarters in front of Fort Seibert, near the Vaughan Road. In the affair at Hatcher's Run early in February, 1865, it was engaged, losing twelve men wounded. From the 3d of February to the 25th of March, it was engaged in picket duty along the .
Vaughan Road. On the morning of the latter day it moved at four in the morning, and crossing Hatcher's Run, engaged the enemy beyond the Davis House, where Colonel Biles and sixteen men were wounded. On the 26th five hundred drafted men were assigned to the regiment.
On the 28th the general advance of the army commenced, and on the 5th of April the corps came up with the enemy at Five Forks, where a severe bat- tle was fought, and on the 6th at Sailor's Creek it was again engaged, the Ninety-ninth losing Lieutenants Ayars and Clifton wounded, the latter mor- tally. Following up the retreating foe, he was again encountered on the 8th near Appomattox Court House, where the regiment lost seventy-six men killed and wounded. On the following day, amid shouts of joy and waving of flags, the announcement was made that the rebel army had surrendered. Under command of Lieutenant Colonel Fritz, the regiment returned by easy marches to Richmond, where it was reviewed by General Meade, and thence to the neigh- borhood of Washington. On the 23d of May it participated in the grand re- view at the Capital, and on the 1st of July was mustered out of service.
