During the succeeding winter, a large proportion of the original men re- enlisted, preserving it as a veteran organization, and a considerable number of recruits were added to its strength. In the spring of 1864, the battery moved with Sherman on his Atlanta campaign, and the hundred days, during which the fighting was almost incessant, it was with the Fourth Corps, commanded by General Stanley, to which it had been transferred soon after the battle of Chickamauga. In the bold and bloody assault on the enemy's lines at Kene- saw Mountain, on the 27th of June, Captain Samuel M. M'Dowell, who had succeeded to the command after the fall of Captain Stevens, was killed. Upon the fall of Atlanta, on the 2d of September, General Hood, who had succeeded General Johnston in command of the rebel army, moved upon the communi- cations of Sherman, in the direction of Chattanooga, and the latter, with the Fourth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Seventeenth corps, followed him. When it was evident that Hood intended to open a campaign in Tennessee, Sherman placed what forces he could spare under General Thomas, with which to meet Hood, and returning with the major part of his army to Atlanta, soon after commenced his famous march to the sea. The Fourth Corps was left with Thomas. Wood's Division of the Fourth Corps reached Athens on the 31st of October, and shortly afterwards the entire corps was concentrated at Pulaski. Gradually the Union troops, which were outnumbered two to one, fell back to Columbia, and finally to Franklin, where General Schofield, who was in command, prepared to give battle. The enemy attacked with great impetu- osity, but was hurled back with fearful loss. From half-past three until after dark the battle raged, the fighting extending along a front of two miles, reach- ing from the extreme Union left to the right centre. General Stanley was wounded in the battle, and the command of the corps devolved on General Wood. During the night, Schofield withdrew his forces to Nashville, where preparations were made for defense, nntil such time as Thomas should be pre- parcd to assume the offensive. On the morning of the 15th of December, the order for the attack was given, and for two days the battle raged with great fury. Finally, the enemy, hard pressed on all sides, was driven from the field. The pursuit was vigorously pushed, and frequent skirmishing continued until Hood was driven from Tennessee, and his army virtually broken up. After. the surrender of the rebel armies, the battery was sent to Texas, in conjunc- tion with other troops, where it remained on duty until the 12th of October, when it was mustered out of service at Victoria.

INDEPENDENT BATTERY C. (THOMPSON'S.)


THE troops for this battery were recruited at Pittsburg, to serve for three years, and were organized on the 6th of November, 1861, with the fol- lowing officers : James Thompson, Captain; John P. Barry and James Ste- phenson, Lieutenants. Soon after its organization it was ordered to the front, and during the fall and winter succceding, was carefully drilled. It was as- signed to the Second Division, commanded by General Ricketts, of the Third Corps, General M'Dowell, which subsequently became part of General Pope's army. When M'Clellan, with the major part of the Army of the Potomac moved to the Peninsula, in the spring of 1862, M'Dowell's Corps remained be- hind to cover Washington, and did not advance further south than the Rap- pahannock. When the safety of Washington became endangered by the threat- cning attitude which the rebel army assumed after the seven days' battle bc- forc Richmond, M'Dowell's Corps was pushed out to meet and check the rebel advance. Banks met a powerful division of that army under Jackson and Ewell, at Cedar Mountain, towards the close of the day, on the 9th of August, and a most sanguinary battle ensucd. M'Dowell's corps came quickly to the support of Banks, Thompson's Battery arriving on the ground just at dark. As it was moving into position, the enemy opened upon it with canister. The infantry had formed between it and the cnemy, preventing the use of canister, and Captain Thompson, accordingly replied with shells from his two twelve- pound howitzers, which, in a short time silenced the rebel fire. With his Par- rott guns, he directed a hot fire upon the woods where the enemy held his sup -. ports. The fire was kept up until far into the night. On the following day, the enemy sent in a flag of truce, for permission to bury his dead, and after- wards retreated across the Rapidan. With Buford's Cavalry Brigade, the bat- tery advanced to Robertson's River, on the 12th, and skirmished with the enemy, putting his cavalry to flight.
