ONE HUNDRED AND TWELFTH REGIMENT (SECOND HEAVY ARTILLERY) .- Two batter- ies-C and E-of this regiment were chiefly from Wayne. The One Hundred and Twelfth Regiment was raised under authority granted in October, 1861, by the War Department to Charles Angeroth, of Philadelphia, to reeruit a battalion (afterwards extended to a regiment) of heavy artillery. Reeruiting was eommeneed at once, and proceeded rapidly. The regiment was organized in the early part of January, 1862, with Col. Charles Angeroth, Lieutenant- Colonel John H. Oberteuffer, and Major Wm. Candidus as its field officers.


On the 25th of February the regiment (ex- cepting Companies D, G and H, which had previously been placed on duty at Fort Dela- ware, below Philadelphia) was ordered to Wash- ington, and upon its arrival was reported to General Abner Doubleday, by whom it was as- signed to duty in the fortifications north of the eity. The three companies from Fort Delaware rejoined the others on the 19th of March, and for more than two years from that time the regiment remained in the Washington defenses north of the Potomae. On the 26th of March, 1864, it was transferred to the Virginia side, and placed to garrison Forts Marey and Ethan Allen, near the Chain Bridge.'


On the opening of the spring eampaign of 1864 the regiment was ordered to the front, and accordingly embarked at Washington on the 27th of May, and proceeded to Port Royal, on the Rappahannock River, where it arrived on the 28th. From that plaee it marched across the country, and joined the Eighteenth Army Corps, under General W. F. Smith, at Cold Harbor, on the 4th of June. There it was formed into three battalions in order to seeure greater facility in manœuvring. These battal- ions, with the Eighty-ninth New York Regi- ment, formed the Second Brigade in the Second Division of the corps.


1 At that time the regiment had inereased by recruiting to about thirty-three hundred men, and a new regiment, designated as the Second Provisional Artillery, was formed from its surplus by order of the War Department. The new regiment was organized April 20, 1864, and was sent into the field as a part of the Ninth Corps.

WAYNE, PIKE AND MONROE COUNTIES, PENNSYLVANIA.


Moving with the army across the James River, the regiment took its position in the lines investing the city of Petersburg, and dur- ing the months of June, July and August per- formed constant and severe duty in the trenches from the Appomattox River to the Jerusalem plank-road, being in that time reduced from an effective strength of eighteen hundred and thirty-six to less than nine hundred. This number was increased early in September by an accession to its ranks of about four hundred men, the remnant of the Second Provisional Artillery Regiment, which had originally been formed from its surplus strength.


On the 20th of September the regiment moved with the Army of the James across the river, and took part in the operations which re- sulted in the capture of Fort Harrison, and in which the First and Second Battalions sus- tained a loss of over two hundred in killed, wounded and prisoners.


The regiment remained in its position near Fort Harrison until the 2d of December, when it was ordered to Bermuda Hundred, its term of service being then within about a month of its close. At that place a large number of the men re-enlisted as veterans ; these, with the recruits who joined, amounting to over two thousand men. The regiment, however, was not called on to do much more fighting. After the evac- uation of Petersburg by the enemy it was ordered to duty in that city, and after the sur- render of Lee's army the several companies of the Second were distributed through the lower counties of Virginia to maintain order, and re- mained on this duty till the beginning of 1866. On the 29th of January in that year it was mustered out of service at City Point, Va., and was soon after transported to Philadelphia, where its men were discharged on the 16th of February.

ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-SEVENTH REG- IMENT .- Company A, of this regiment, was re- cruited principally, and K partially, in Wayne County ; Companies C, D and H in Clinton ; G in Butler, and Company I in Bradford. The men rendezvoused at Camp Curtin, and on Au- gust 25, 1862, a regimental organization was effected. The field officers were Henry M. Bossert, colonel ; Joseph B. Kiddoe, lieutenant- colonel ; Charles W. Wingard, major, Soon after its organization it was ordered to Wash- ington. On the 31st of August it was assigned to General Hancock's brigade, Seventh Division, Sixth Corps, then marching through Washing- ton, after the defeat at Bull Run, and about to enter on the Maryland campaign. The regi- ment participated in the engagement at Cramp- ton's Gap, in South Mountain. They were then ordered to Harper's Ferry, engaging in the bat- tle of Antietam. It was then ordered to do guard duty at Camp No. 4, on the Potomac. When Stuart with his cavalry made his raid in- to Pennsylvania, it was sent with the brigade in


pursuit. Near the close of October it was or- dered to Washington. When the army reached Fredericksburg it was again ordered in the field, Colonel Bossert being placed in command of a brigade composed of his own regiment, four regiments from New Jersey and one from New York, and was charged with the guarding of the landing at Acquia Creek and the railroad leading to Fredericksburg. On January 20, 1863, it was ordered to the front. On March 14th Colonel Bossert was honorably discharged, Lieutenant-Colonel Kiddoe promoted to succeed him. It afterwards participated, under Hook- er, at Chancellorsville. About the middle of May, the term of enlistment being about to expire, it was ordered to Harrisburg, and was mustered out June 1st.
