ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIRST, 7


SIXTEENTH CAVALRY.


1


"THE troops comprising this regiment were recruited in the city of Philadel- phia, and in the counties of Venango, Erie, Juniata, Franklin, Wash- ington, Fayette, Centre, Wyoming, Susquehanna, Bradford, Tioga, Columbia, Delaware, Northumberland, Union, Mifflin, Perry, and Dauphin, representing, as will be thus seen, nearly every section of this broad Commonwealth. They rendezvoused at Camp Simmons, near Harrisburg, and subsequently at Camp M'Clellan, where an organization was effeeted, on the 18th of November, 1862, with the following field officers : Jolin Irvin Gregg, Colonel; Lorenzo D. Rodgers, of Venango county, Lieutenant Colonel ; William A. West, of Fay- otte county, William H. Fry, of Philadelphia, and John Stroup, of Mifflin county, Majors. Colonel Gregg had served in the Second Pennsylvania Regi- ment, in the Mexican war, and afterwards in the Eleventh United States Infantry, where he rose to the rank of Captain, and subsequently in the State Militia. Soon after the breaking out of the rebellion, he was elected colonel of the Fifth Regiment of the Reserve Corps, but accepted instead, a commission as captain in the Sixth United States Cavalry, from which position, after having passed through the campaigns of the Peninsula, and of Maryland, he was seleeted to command this regiment.


On the 23d, the regiment was mounted and equipped, and on the 20th, proceeded to Camp Casey, near Bladensburg, Maryland, five miles from Wash- ington. On the 3d of January, 1863, it broke camp and proceeded to the front, joining the main army near Falmouth, and was assigned to Averell's Brigade. It went into camp near the Potomac Creek Railroad Bridge, and was engaged during the winter in pieket and guard duty on the right flank of the army, the line extending from the right of the infantry up the left bank of the Rappahannock, and thence towards the rear. This line was nearly eight miles from camp, and the duty was severe. On the 25th of February, it lost two men killed, and a number of prisoners, by a raid upon the picket line, made by the cavalry brigade of Fitz Hugh Lee. Familiar with every road and by-path, Lee's troopers erossed the river, and stealthily gaining the rear of the Union pickets, proceeded, in the garb of Union soldiers, to relieve them, and lead them away captive. Its first battle was at. Kelly's Ford, on the 17th of March. It here occupied the extreme right of the line, and when the attack was made, seeing, the, enemy, move to turn its flank, Gregg dis- mounted his men, and screening, them by: buildings in. his front, awaited the

rebel advance. A well directed volley soon sent him out of carbine range, when Gregg boldly advanced his line three hundred yards, to the cover of a stone wall. A charge by thirty men, gallantly led by Major Fry, scattered a squadron of the enemy posted in a wood in front. At night the regiment re- turned to eamp, having suffered only slight loss.


-


On the 13th of April, the regiment left winter-quarters, to enter upon the spring campaign. Proceeding to Bealton Station with the division, it marehed and countermarehed, within a eirele of fifteen miles, for the space of two weeks, all the time threatening the enemy with immediate attack. The object of these demonstrations having been attained, it moved on the 28th towards Kelly's Ford, where it arrived on the following day, and found the Eleventh and Twelfth corps erossing, on their way to Chancellorsville. The division erossed in the afternoon of the 29th, and moving out towards Brandy Station, attacked the enemy's cavalry, desultory skirmishing being kept up until night- fall. On the following morning, it was discovered that the enemy had fled, and the command moved on by Culpepper, to the railroad crossing of the Rapidan, where skirmishing commenced ; but the Sixteenth, being upon the pieket line, did not participate. On the 2d, the division moved down the left bank to Ely's Ford, arriving at evening, and just as the camp fires had been lit the enemy attacked from the opposite shore, pouring in a rapid fire, guided by the blazing fagots. For a moment there was confusion in the camp of the brigade, the horses breaking from their fastenings, and running wildly about. The fire was returned, and soon beavy volleys were poured in, routing the enemy, and insuring quiet for the night. The Sixteenth had one man killed. On the following day, the division crossed and joined the army under General Hooker, and three days after, returned to its old eamp.
