. The Six Months' Battalion, which formed the nucleus of the new regiment, was recruited in June, 1863, and was employed under command of Major Morrow, in guarding the fords of the Susquehanna, above and below Harris- burg, and in picketing the roads Icading into the Cumberland Valley. After

the defeat of the rebel army at Gettysburg, it was pushed up the valley in pursuit, and until the close of its term of service, was engaged with the cavalry in holding the Shenandoah Valley. Upon its muster-out in February, 1864, in compliance with an order from the War Department, the battalion was re-organized at a eamp of rendezvous near Chambersburg, and was recruited for a term of three years. On the 22d, the Ringgold Battalion was united with these re-organized companies, and a regimental organization was effeeted, with the following field offieers : Jacob Higgins, Colonel ; A. J. Greenfield, Lieuten- ant Colonel ; George T. Work, Elias S. Troxell, and Henry A. Myers, Majors.
On the 1st of March, the battalion at Chambersburg, under command of Major Troxell, proceeded to Martinsburg, where it joined the forees of General Sigel, and proceeded thenee, by his order, to Cumberland, where the Ringgold Battalion was stationed, and wbere a union of the two was effeeted. The regiment remained in eamp of instruction here, until April, when that portion of it not mounted, amounting to about seven hundred men, proceeded, under command of Lieutenant Colonel Greenfield, to a general eamp of rendezvous for eavalry, in Pleasant Valley, Maryland, where it received horses and equip- ments, and where it remained until the middle of May, the men receiving, in the meantime, a thorough course of drill and discipline. From Pleasant Valley it moved to Camp Stoneman, near Washington, where its instruetion was continued. About the middle of June, it was ordered to Martinsburg, where, upon its arrival, it was temporarily armed with muskets, and under command of Major Troxell, was assigned to the infantry brigade, commanded by Colonel Mulligan, who soon after led his forces to Leetown, to meet the threatened advanee of the rebel General Early. On the morning of the 3d of July, the brigade was furiously attacked by a largely superior foree. With the most determined bravery, Mulligan's little band stood its ground, and for eight hours held the enemy at bay, keeping open the way of retreat for Sigel, at Martinsburg, and thereby assuring the safety of the army and its material. . The detachment, though fighting as infantry, in which it was little schooled, showed sueh spirit and determination, that Colonel Mulligan placed it at the fore front, where it repelled repeated assaults of the enemy. On the 6th and . 7th it was engaged in a series of skirmishes on Maryland Heights, and for some days afterwards was on the mareh with the troops, then retiring before a superior foree of the enemy under Early, advancing towards Maryland, with the design of effeeting the eapture of the National Capital. On the 15th it again erossed the Potomae, and moved through Loudon eounty to Snicker's Gap, having, on the 17th, a sharp engagement at Snieker's Ferry. It then advaneed to Winehester, but on the 22d, was ordered baek to the camp at Pleasant Valley, for the purpose of being mounted and thoroughly equipped as eavalry. On the 8th of August it left eamp, and joining the foree of General Torbert, led the advanee of General Sheridan, who had just then been put in command of the entire army in the Shenandoah Valley. On the 9th, it eame up with and joined in the attack of the rebel rear-guard, capturing ten men and fifteen horses. On the 20th, under command of Colonel Lowell, it covered the retreat of General Sheridan from Cedar Creek. On the 21st, under eom- mand of Lieutenant Colonel Greenfield, it took part in an engagement at Kernstown, where it displayed great steadiness and gallantry, repelling re- peated assaults of a largely superior foree. On the three following days it was warmly engaged at Opequan and Berryville, and on the 25th at Charles-

town, sustaining considerable loss, Captain Thomas D. French and Lieuten- ant F. B. Smith, being among the wounded. On the 26th, under a severe artillery fire, it participated in an attack upon the enemy's position, charging his lines, and capturing a number of prisoners. Major Myers was severely wounded in this engagement. Soon afterwards the detachment was ordered to Hagerstown, where it was united with the detachment which had been left at Cumberland, in the April preceding. The latter, at this time under com- mand of Major Work, had been in constant and active service during the entire summer, taking part in the campaign of General Hunter against Lynchburg, and serving in the brigade commanded by Colonel Higgins, under Sigel and Crook, with whom it was actively engaged in the battles of New Market, and Kernstown, on the 25th of July. It subsequently joined the division of General Averell, and with him made a forced march in pursuit of M'Causland, after the burning of Chambersburg, coming up with him at Moorefield, where a decisive battle was fought, and the rebel leader was put to rout, losing. many men, and all his guns. In this engagement, Major Work was sent with his command to flank the enemy and attack his rear, which was accomplished with the most gratifying success. After the union of the two commands at Hagerstown, the entire regiment, under command of Lieutenant Colonel Greenfield, advanced under General Averell to Martinsburg. On the 31st of August the division was attacked, and after a severe engagement, was driven towards Falling Waters. On the 2d of September it again advanced to Darkesville, and boldly attacked, capturing the enemy's wagon train. On the 3d, at Bunker Hill, and on the 4th, at Stephenson's Depot, it was engaged with largely superior forces of infantry and cavalry, and on the 7th, charged the enemy at Darkesville, driving him in confusion. On the 12th, it was again engaged in an action at Bunker Hill, and on the 15th, in one at Bucklestown, in each of which the regiment bore itself gallantly.
Sheridan was now ready to move upon Early with all his forces, and on the 18th, the regiment charged the enemy at Martinsburg, checking him in the town, and early on the following morning, pursued his retreating forces towards Winchester. Captain John H. Boring, and Lieutenant Felix Boyle, were wounded in this engagement. On this day, Sheridan attacked at the Opequan, and at evening, the Twenty-second, led by Major Troxell, joined in the cavalry charge which finally routed the rebel army, and sent him in flight and confusion through Winchester, the regiment capturing a battery and eighty men. Captain William F. Speer was among the wounded. Following the retreating enemy, it came up with him at Fisher's Hill, where it participated in the fierce fighting which again routed the enemy, Lieutenant George Gass being wounded, and on the 26th, pushed the advantage by attacking at Mount Vernon Forge. On the 27th, the division was surprised while in camp, by a superior force of the enemy. The Twenty-second rallied, under a severe fire, and delivered a most determined charge, driving the enemy back in disorder, and held the ground in face of an overwhelming force, thereby saving the entire division train. Its loss was very severe. Major Work, and Adjutant Joseph G. Isenberg, were among the severely wounded, and Lieutenant C. L. Mercereau, and Surgeon S. M. Finley were taken prisoners. The regiment was commanded here by Major Troxell, Lieutenant Colonel Greenfield being in command of the brigade, the latter displaying both courage and ability in the disposition of his troops. At Cedar Creek, on the 19th of October, it was again fiercely

engaged, losing a number in killed and wounded, Captain Martin Kuhn being of the latter.
A few days after the battle, the regiment was sent in charge of a train bearing the wounded to Martinsburg, where, after its arrival, it went into camp, and remained until the 20th of December. It was then ordered to New Creek, and during the winter, was engaged in active duty in the the counties of Hardy, Hampshire, and Pendleton, operating against roving bands of the enemy, which infested the mountains of that region, capturing and driving them away, and completely freeing the country from their presence. To accomplish this, the command was kept almost constantly in the saddle, and was exposed to great hardships and privations, in moving over mountain roads covered with ice and snow and swept by wintry blasts.
In April, 1865, nearly one-half of the men were mustered out of service, their term having expired. The remainder, under command of Lieutenant Colonel Greenfield, continued in service until near the elose of June, when it was consolidated with a portion of the Eighteenth Regiment, forming the Third Provisional Cavalry The new command was distributed at various points through West Virginia, and contributed largely to the restoration and maintainanee of eivil order. It was was finally mustered out of service at Cumberland, Maryland, on the 31st of October.
