From Alexandria the Fifth, with its brigade, marched back (April 9th) to Manassas, thence to Catlett's Station, thence to Falmouth, and (May 26th) across the Rappahannock to Freder- icksburg, of which place General Reynolds was appointed military governor. An advance from Fredericksburg along the line of the railroad
towards Richmond was intended, but this was found to be inexpedient, and as General Me- Clellan was calling urgently for reinforcements to the Peninsula, Reynolds' brigade was recalled from its advanced position on the railroad, the entire division was marched to Gray's Landing, and there (June 9th) embarked for White House, on the Pamunkey River, where it ar- rived on the 9th of June. There had been a vast quantity of stores collected at White House for the use of the army on the Chickahominy, and the timely arrival of the Reserves prevented the destruction of those stores by a strong de- tachment of Confederate cavalry under Fitz- hugh Lee, who was then on his way towards the Pamunkey for that purpose. From White House the Fifth marched with its division by way of Baltimore Cross-Roads to join the Army of the Potomac in the vicinity of Gaines' Mill. Thence the division was moved to the extreme right, where it took position at Mechanicsville and along the line of Beaver Dam Creek.
On Thursday, the 26th of June, was fought the battle of Mechanicsville, the first of that series of bloody engagements known collectively as the "Seven Days' Fight," and also (with the exception of the severe skirmish at Dranesville in the previous December) the first engagement in which the infantry of the Pennsylvania Re- serves took part. The Fifth had been that morning ordered across the Beaver Dam Creek to guard the Mechanicsville and Meadow Bridges, and four companies advanced to Me- chaniesville. At one o'clock p. M. the enemy appeared and drove in the advanced pickets to the creek. At two P. M. Reynolds withdrew his brigade and occupied the light works which had been thrown up behind the creek. The Fifth occupied the left centre of the brigade line, be- ing posted in the partial cover of a belt of woods on the left of the road. The enemy, advancing in strong force, attacked with great impetuosity, the Georgia and Louisiana troops wading Beaver Dam Creek where the water reached up to their belts, and charging again and again with fierce determination. Reynolds' brigade on the right received and repelled the severest assaults in the conflict, which raged through the whole afternoon, and only ceased

when darkness closed down on wood and stream. The entire loss of the Reserve division was two hundred and ten killed and wounded and two hundred and eleven missing, of which number the Fifth Regiment sustained a loss of fifty killed and wounded.
Through the night succeeding the battle the men of the Pennsylvania Reserves slept on the field of conflict. At daylight on the morning of the 27th of June the Fifth, with its compan- ion regiments, withdrew from the line of the Beaver Dam, and moved down parallel with the Chickahominy, some two or three miles, to Gaines' Mill, where General Fitz John Porter's corps (of which the Reserves formed a part) was placed in line of battle for the renewed conflict, which was inevitable. Butterfield's brigade occupied the extreme left, Sykes' division of regulars the right, and McCall's Pennsylvanians were placed in the second line, Meade's brigade being on the left, near the Chickahominy, and Reynolds' brigade on the right of the line of the Reserves. Approaching the Union lines from the direction of Cold Harbor and Dispatch Station were the Confederate commmands of Generals A. P. Hill, Longstreet, D. H. Hill and (farther away, but moving up with all possi- ble speed) the corps of the redoubtable " Stone- wall " Jackson, in all more than fifty thousand men, against half that number on the Union side. The battle was opened by a furious attack on the regulars composing Porter's right. These, after having repulsed the enemy in his first at- tack, finally gave way before a renewed assault. The battle raged furiously during the afternoon, the Fifth, and other regiments of the Reserves in the second line, being constantly under a severe artillery fire. Between four and five o'clock the Second and Third Brigades were advanced to the first line, and at once became heavily en- gaged, the enemy making a furious and most determined assault at that point of the line. " The Fifth Regiment, on my left," said Major Stone, of the Bucktails, in his official report, " the conduct of which offered a constant ex- ample of courage and discipline, answered the enemy with the most terrific fire." In that perilous position the regiment stood fast, and held its ground against repeated charges, until
the men had exhausted their ammunition, when they retired before a flank assault made by the veterans of Stonewall Jackson.1 Just then the famous Trish Brigade moved past them rapidly to the front, poured in a destructive volley, and bravely held the enemy in check, while the wearied men of the Fifth fell back with empty cartridge-boxes, but without panie or disorder, to the Chickahominy. During the afternoon of the battle the command of the Fifth devolved on Lieutenant-Colonel Fisher, Colonel Simmons being in command of the brigade. The heroic General Reynolds, the brigade commander, be- came separated from his troops and was cap- tured by the enemy on the following morning. The losses of the Fifth Regiment in this en- gagement were not reported separately from those of the succeeding four days.
The day of Gaines' Mill closed in blood and defeat to the Union forces, and during the night the shattered Pennsylvania Reserves, with the other troops, succeeded in crossing the Chicka- hominy and destroying the bridge behind them, though two bridges farther down the stream (Bottom's and Long Bridges) still remained ; and it was not long after sunrise on Saturday morning when the Confederate force under the indomitable Jackson was massed at the upper one of these and preparing to cross to the south side. Other hostile forces were also advancing, and in view of this rather alarming situation of affairs, the general had, as early as Friday morning, decided on a retreat by the whole army to James River, where a base of supplies could be held, and communication on the river kept open by the Union gunboats. The troops were informed of the proposed change by an apparently trium- phant announcement (intended merely to en- courage the soldiers, and lighten in some degree the gloom of the great disaster) that a new flank movement was about to be executed that would surely and swiftly result in the capture of Richmond. No such assurance, however, could
! A Confederate officer who was present at the battle of Gaines' Mill, in writing of it afterwards, paid n high compli- ment to the gallant conduct of the Pennsylvania Reserves on that field, and said, "It was only when the news cume that Jackson was upon them in their rear that, about eight o'clock, they retired before our advance."

(or Harrison's Landing), where they arrived and camped on the 2d of July. The loss of the Fifth Reserve Regiment in the seven days' battles from the Chickahominy to Malvern Hill was one hundred and thirty-three killed and wounded, and one hundred and three taken During the day succeeding that of the Gaines' prisoners. By the death of Colonel Simmons, Mill battle the Fifth Reserve lay in quiet on ; Lieutenant-Colonel Fisher was promoted to the south side of the Chickahominy, near the colonel, Major George Dare to lieutenant-colo- York River railroad.

Schaffle of D Company, was wounded and taken prisoner, and died one month later in prison, at Richmond, Va. In February, 1863, the Fifth was sent to Washington to rest and recruit. In battle of Gettysburg, Pa., in July, 1863; Warrenton, Bristoe Station, Mine Run, and then stationed at Alexandria through the winter of 1863-64. In battle of Wilderness, Parker's Store, Fredericksburg and Orange vicinity of Charles. City Cross-Roads, where, on the following day, a fierce battle was fought, in which the Fifth took gallant part. The first assault of the enemy at Charles City Cross- Roads was received at about one o'clock in the afternoon of the 30th. At about three o'clock the Fifth became heavily engaged, and, with the Eighth, charged the Seventh and Seven- teenth Virginia Confederate Regiments, putting them to complete rout, and capturing many prisoners. Later in the day the Fifth fought desperately, repelling repeated assaults of the foe, and losing its commander, the brave Colonel Simmons, who was mortally wounded, taken prisoner, and died in the hands of the enemy. No abler or more gallant officer than Colonel Sencca G. Simmons ever led a regiment to battle. The division commander, General Me- ; Turnpike, May 6, 1864; Spottsylvania Court- Call, was also taken prisoner in this engage- ment, and Captain Chamberlain, of D Com- pany, wounded.
In the terrible battle of Malvern Hill, which was fought in the afternoon of the following day (July Ist), the Fifth being held with the division in reserve, did not become actively en- gaged, though it lay for hours under a heavy fire of artillery. The battle opened about four o'clock P. M., and from that time until darkness closed the roar of musketry, the crash of artillery and the howling of canister was uninter- mitting. Finally the carnage ceased, and the men of the North lay down on the field (as they supposed) of victory. But at about midnight orders came to fall in for a march, and the Pennsylvania Reserves, with other commands of the army of the Potomac, moved silently down the hill and away on the road to Berkeley
House, North Anna River, Bethesda Church, May 30, 1864, which was their last battle. They left the field June 1, 1864, and proceeded to Harrisburg, Pa., where the whole regiment was received with joyous demonstrations by the people of its native State.
