* Early on the 18th of October Major Spera, in command of a detachment of the Seven- teenth Cavalry. while at Martinsburg, whither he had been sent on the previous day, was or- dered to report to Major Forsythe, of General Sheridan's staff, then at Martinsburg, and was directed by him to hold his command in readiness to escort Major General Sheridan, in com- pany with Colonels Thorn and Alexander, to the front. The column left Martinsburg at nine A. M., arriving at Winchester at three P. M., General Sheridan stopping at Post Headquarters, Colonel Edwards, Thirty-seventh Massachusetts, commanding. The escort encamped for the night at Mill Creek, a mile south of the town, with orders to be in readiness to move at five on the following morning. Very early in the morning rapid artillery firing was heard in the direction of the front. At about eight A. M. General Sheridan came riding leisurely along, remarking that the artillery firing was no doubt occasioned by a reconnoissance which had been ordered for that morning. Shortly after passing Milltown fugitives from the field began to appear, giving another interpretation of the firing of the morning. All trains going to and returning from the front were at once ordered to be parked to the right and left of the road near Milltown. General Sheridan then ordered Major Spera to take twenty men with the best horses from the escort and follow him, as he was going to "move lively" to the front, the re- mainder of the escort being directed to report to General Forsythe, and Colonels Thorn and Al- exander to do "what they could in stemming the tide of fugitives." On the way up the pike towards Newtown the crowds of men and wagons thickened, until the multitude became al- most a jam, so much so that it was impossible to keep the pike, and General Sheridan struck to the left of the road, dashing through fields and over fences and ditches. He spoke to few, occasionally crying out, "Face the other way, boys!" A Chaplain was met mounted on a mule, who seemed importunate to speak with the General, and beckoned him to stop ; but the General told him to face about and ride along if he had anything to say. But the mule- mounted { haplain was soon left behind with his story untold. On arriving upon the field the General struck to the right of the road, where were Generals Wright, Getty and members of his own staff, one of whom remarked : "General, I suppose Jubal Early intends driving you out of the valley." "What !" exclaimed Sheridan, "drive me out of the valley, three corps of infantry and all my cavalry ? I'll lick him before night." With a lion heart he set to work disposing his forces, and by night-fall he had redeemed his promise.

led his comuand by Front Royal into the valley of Virginia, and on the 22d met the enemy at White's Ford, driving him, and again on the following day near Gordonsville, where, finding his infantry in heavy force, Torbert was obliged to fall back. The Seventeenth was of the rear guard in the retreat, and successfully held the enemy in check, who made repeated attacks. In re- pelling one of these, Lieutenant Alfred F. Lee was killed. Returning to the vicinity of Winchester the regiment went into permanent quarters, and dur- ing the winter was employed iu picket and scout duty, detachments being oc- casionally sent out against roving bands of the cnemy. On the 27th of De- cember Colonel Kellogg was honorably discharged, and Lieutenant Colonel Anderson promoted to succeed him, Major Durland being promoted to Lieu- tenant Colonel, and Captains Luther B. Kurtz and William Thompson to Majors. On the 31st of December the Second Brigade was seut to Lovettsville, in the Loudon Valley, for the protection of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and for guarding the citizens against lawless bands that were constantly commit- ting depredations.
On the 24th of February, 1865, Sheridan led the cavalry in a grand raid upon the James River Canal and other rebel communications in rear of Rich- mond. At Staunton the head of the column began skirmishing with the enemy. Ou the 6th of March the command reached Scottsville, and the work of destruction commenced. Locks were blown up, and mills and rebel stores were destroyed. The First and Second brigades went to Howards- ville, cutting and demolishing the canal and destroying supplies destined for the rebel army. On the 8th the Second Brigade marched via Howardsville, Scottsville, and Fluvanna Court House to Columbia, and thence to Goochland Court House, returning during the night to Columbia, continuing the work of destruction. From the James River the command moved upon the Virginia Central Railroad, which was likewise rendered unserviceable, and on the 26th re-joiued the army before Petersburg. "There perhaps never was a march," says Sheridan, "where nature offered such impediments and showed herself in such gloom as upon this ; incessant rain, deep and almost impassable streams, swamps and mud were encountered aud overcome with a cheerfulness on the part of the troops that was truly admirable. * To every officer and man of the First and Third cavalry divisions I'return my sincere thanks for patriotic, unmurmuring, and soldierly conduct."
Sheridan reached the army just as it was moving on its last campaign, and he at once took the van. At Stony Creek the cavalry became engaged and the Second Brigade was hastened forward to the support of Davies' Division, which was forced back, the Seventeenth losing a number wounded and mis- sing in the engagement. At daylight of the 1st of April fighting was re- newed, the Union lines charging the enemy in his works, the division captur- ing six hundred prisoners and two battle flags. The loss iu the Seventeenth was severe, Captain James Ham being among the killed, and Captains English, Donehoo, Reinhold, and Lieutenant Anglun among the wounded. Rapid marching and hard fighting continued until the 6th, when General Ewell, with one wing of the rebel army, was captured. From that point the cavalry kept up a running fight with the enemy's advance uutil he reached Appomattox Court House, where the whole rebel army was forced to lay down its arms. In securing this joyful result the cavalry, led by Sheridan, con- tributed largely, the Seventeenth sustaining it's hard-earned reputation for

gallantry to the last. From Appomattox the regiment returned to Peters- burg, and after a week's rest marched to the neighborhood of Washington, where it remained in camp until its final muster out of service, on the 16th of June. A detachment of this regiment was consolidated with parts of the First and Sixth Pennsylvania cavalry regiments, forming the Second Provisional Cavalry, and remained in service until the 7th of August, when it was mus- tered out at Louisville, Ky. In his farewell order to the Seventeenth, General Devin says : "In five successive campaigns, and in over three score engage- ments, you have nobly sustained your part. Of the many gallant regiments from your State none has a brighter record, none has more freely shed its blood on every battle field from Gettysburg to Appomattox. Your gallant deeds will be ever fresh in the memory of your comrades of the Iron Brigade and the First Division. Soldiers, Farewell !"
