ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FIRST REGIMENT.
C COMPANIES A and C, of this regiment, were recruited in Susquehanna county, B, in Pike, F, in Warren, D, in Juniata, E, G, H, K, and part of I, in Berks, and the remaining part of I, in Schuylkill. They rendezvoused at Camp Curtin, during the month of September, where a regimental organiza- tion was effected, with the following field officers: Harrison Allen, of Warren county, Colonel ; George F. M'Farland, of Juniata county, Lieutenant Colonel ; John W. Young, of Susquehanna county, Major. Colonel Allen had served as Major of the Tenth Reserve, but had been compelled, on account of ill health, to resign. The material of the regiment was, in general, excellent, many of the men being experieneed marksmen, and most of them well formed and hardy. Company D was largely composed of the instruetors and students of M'Alis- terville Academy, of which Lieutenant Colonel M'Farland was the Principal, and there were in the regiment nearly a hundred who had been school teachers.
On the 26th of November, the regiment moved for Washington, and upon its arrival, proceeded to Arlington Heights. Rations in haversaek had beeome exhausted, and the commissary train had failed to come up. In this extremity, the men of the Twenty-fifth Maine, eneamped near by, proffered a share of their own rations to the famishing troops, early affording a lesson of gener- osity which the One Hundred and Fifty-first was not slow to improve on subse- quent oeeasions. On the following day the train arrived, bringing abundant rations, and one hundred rounds of ammunition to the man, filling cartridge boxes, and loading down knapsaeks. On the 3d of December the regiment marched in conjunction with the brigade of Colonel F. G. D'Utassay, to Alexandria, and thence proceeded by rail to Union Mills, twenty-two miles out, where it was placed on duty, relieving a Vermont Brigade. It was here in an enemy's country, infested by Moseby's guerillas, where every inhabitant was an informer, and every visitant a spy. Uneeasing vigilance, and un- questioning obedienee to orders were exacted, and though a hard school, was a most useful one, and the lessons there learned served it in many a trying hour, where, for lack of them, disaster and ruin would have been entailed. Colonel D' Utassay, who had been a Hungarian officer, and General Alexander Hayes, who succeeded him, were both strict disciplinarians, and were untiring in their efforts to have the command well instrueted and drilled.
About the middle of February, the regiment was transferred to Belle Plain, where it was brigaded with the One Hundred and Twenty-first, One Hundred and Thirty-fifth, and One Hundred and Forty-second Pennsylvania regiments, commanded, for a time, by Colonel James R. Porter, but subse- quently by General Thomas A. Rowley, forming the First Brigade, of the Third

ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FIRST REGIMENT,
Division, of the First Corps, General Doubleday commanding the division, and General Reynolds the corps. Arriving at night, without tents or rations, the men were obliged to lie down hungry, upon the cold ground, without pro- tection from the wintry weather. During the night, several inches of snow fell, and soon afterwards a cold rain set in, in the midst of which a part of the regiment was ordered out upon the picket line. Privation and exposure in- duced sickness, from which some dicd, and many were sent to the hospital. Among the victims were Lieutenants Urias F. Hollenback, and Caleb Parvin, both of whom died of discases contracted while in the line of duty. Just previous to the opening of the Chancellorsville campaign, the Third Division was sent to Port Conway, on the Lower Rappahannock, for a diversion in favor of the opera- tions soon to commence. The movement was successful, inducing Stonewall Jackson to move, with his whole corps and train, to a point on the opposite bank. The division was out forty-six hours, during thirty-six of which rain fell incessantly, making the march a difficult and trying one. Upon its re- turn to camp, General Doubleday sent a communication to Colonel Allen, through his Adjutant General, in these words: "The General commanding the division desires me to express his appreciation to Colonel Allen, of the good order and compactness which marked the march of the One Hundred and Fifty-first, both in going to, and returning from Port Conway. He de- sires mc to say that the same circumstances attracted the attention and com- mendation of Major General Reynolds and staff, who wished this compliment tendcred."
Before marching to the battle-field at Chancellorsville, the First Corps moved down to Franklin's Crossing, where it was twice subjected to a vigorous shelling from the enemy posted on the opposite shore. On the 2d of May, the corps made a forced march to United States Ford, and crossing, was about- to encamp, when it was summoned to the front to occupy the line on the right of the army, from which the Eleventh Corps had been driven. During Sun- day, the 3d, and Monday the 4th, the regiment occupied a position on the picket line, between the Ely's and Germania Ford roads, where it confronted the enemy, who sought every favorable opportunity to dispute the ground. On Wednesday the army withdrew, when the regiment went into camp near White Oak Church. Considerable sickness prevailed while here, the morning report at one time showing one hundred and sixty on the sick list.
The march to Gettysburg commenced on the 12th of June, the right wing. of the army composed of the First and Eleventh Corps, under General Rey- nolds, making a forced march of one hundred and five miles in three days, throwing itself suddenly between Lee's Army, (which was moving down the Shenandoah Valley,) and Washington. At Broad Run they halted for the enemy to develop his plans. His cavalry having been defeated at Aldie and Upperville, and he having crossed the Potomac above, Reynolds hastened for- ward to Middleburg, where he again interposed between the enemy, and the cities of Baltimore and Washington. As the enemy pushed on into Pennsyl- vania, Reynolds followed, and on the 1st of July, his cavalry, under Buford, met the head of the enemy's columns, and immediately commenced the battle, the brigades of Cutler and Meredith coming up soon after, and continuing the fight. The First Brigade, now commanded by Colonel Chapman Biddle, ar- rived upon the field at half past ten A. M., and took position on the extreme left flank of the corps, the One Hundred and Fifty-first, under command of

NINE MONTHS' SERVICE.
Lieutenant Colonel M'Farland, in the absence of Colonel Allen, holding the left of the brigade line. As it moved into position it was saluted by the boom- ing of cannon and the rattle of musketry, and soon was whispercd the sad in- telligence of the fall of Reynolds. Without delay it was pushed forward, by order of General Rowley, now in command of the division, the men unslinging knapsacks as they went, and advanced obliquely to the top of a ridge to the west of the Theological Seminary, where it remained some time. All firing now ceased for nearly an hour, the enemy having been driven back, and Gen- eral Archer captured with some eight hundred of his men. About noon the enemy opened again on both front and right. The latter being a flank fire, to which the brigade was exposed, it was ordered back into the hollow, and here, supporting Cooper's Battery and subjected to a constant fire of shot and shell, it maintained its position for two hours and a half, ouly varying its line to avoid the destructive cross fire of the enemy. At half past two the One Hun- dred and Fifty first was detached from the brigade by General Rowley, to be held as a reserve, and was posted behind a fence along the south end of Semi- nary Grove, and facing north. A few moments later it changed front forward on the left company, and occupied a temporary breast-work erected by the Second (Robinson's) Division earlier in the day, just in rcar of thic Seminary, facing west. By this time tho enemy had concentrated in large force and began closing in. With only this single regiment in reserve, and with but a single line, Doubleday was opposing thrice his numbers, coming on threc lines deep, and reaching out far beyond him on either flank. This pressure soon began to tell upon the integrity of the Union line. A gap, occasioned by severe losses, was soon manifest between the brigades of Biddle and Meredith, which was threatening to prove fatal to the entire left wing. Into this gap, by order of General Rowley, the One Hundred and Fifty-first was thrown, to stay the tide which was fast sweeping on,-the last reserve thrown into action. In perfect order, it moved forward, and closed up the broken line, company D standing directly in front of, and about twenty-five yards distant from the point of woods where General Reynolds was killed. It had not gained its position when men began to fall, but not until the word was given was the fire returned, and then only deliberately, not by battalion, but as each could de- liver an effective shot. The fighting was now terrific, and the losses of the enemy in front of the position where the regiment stood, as was acknowledged by his official reports, was most grievous. "I know not," says Colonel M'Far- land in his official report, " how men could have fought more desperately, cx- hibited more coolness, or contested the field with more determined courage." But the contest was too unequal to continue long. The one attenuated line, with the last reserve thrown in, was becoming shattered. The Iron Brigade having borne the brunt of the battle for five hours, was finally withdrawn, thus exposing the right of the One Hundred and Fifty-tirst. The regiments on its left were, likewise, overborne, and one after another was forced back, until this was left alone to resist the cnemy's front and flank fire. Finally, when more than half its number had fallen, seeing that it was being flanked by powerful masses, and that it would certainly be engulphed if it longer stood, the order was given to retire. Deliberately the order was obeyed, the cnemy following with caution. At the barricade of rails in the edge of the grove back of the Seminary, it again took position, where fragments of other regiments had as- semblod, and as the enemy's lines came on in front, a deadly fire was delivered
