MEMORIAL HISTORY


The company was fortunate in securing some of the regimental honors: while the company became the color company of the regiment, and responsible for the colors consigned to the keeping of the color guard. Company "C" made a good record. Lieu- tenant Christian A. Nissley was promoted to captain of Company "I." Lieutenant John F. Orth was made adju- tant of the regiment, and afterwards promoted to quar- termaster. Sergeants Wise and Hummel were promoted to lieutenancies.


The casualties of the company were great, including Lieutenant Orth among the killed. The company was mustered out with the regiment on the 29th of May, 1863.


COMPANY "D."


D URING the war of the rebellion there was fully as much intrigue, bargaining and chicanery practiced in the formation of military companies, and the organization of regiments, as prevails in the present day in political manipulations, and syndicate manoeuvers.


There were characteristics about this company, prob- ably not very dissimilar from many, or most other com- panies, yet it had some unique features peculiarly its own, stamping its impress upon the general character of the regiment.


Company "D" had its origin in a surprise. On the 26th of July, 1862, H. C. Alleman, Esq., was sitting at his table, in his law office, No. 6, North Third street, in Harrisburg, attending to professional business, and while


CAPTAIN JAMES B. KEENE. Captain Co. "D, " 127th Regiment. P. V. Springfield, Mass.


49


127TH REGIMENT, P. V.


I was painting the front of his office, Adjutant William W. Jennings, of Camp Curtin, entered the office and intro- duced himself. He was the favorite nephew of Colonel F. K. Boas, the personal friend and landlord of Mr. Alle- man. While they knew of each other, they were person- ally unknown the one to the other. Adjutant Jennings stated that he had applied to the Governor for authority to raise a regiment under the 300,000 call from the Presi- dent, and under the proclamation of the Governor, for volunteers to serve for nine months, that he had assur- ances from the State Executive that he would be appoint- ed colonel, on securing ten companies. He said he came directly from the Executive Chamber, where he had a satisfactory interview with Governor Curtin and Adju- tant General Russell, who authorized him to raise a regi- ment ; and he came straightway, not only to announce this fact first to him, but to offer him the lieutenant-colo- nelcy of the regiment. At this Mr. Alleman very naturally expressed very great surprise; when Adjutant Jennings stated that he had two good reasons for making the ten- der, any one of which should be conclusive. He said he wanted to cancel an obligation for very valued and appre- ciated services rendered him, unsolicited, at the organiza- tion of the Lochiel Grays. He said his second reason was merit, and that he felt that he could fully confide in his good judgment, and his efficiency as an administrative officer. He stated further that his company was growing, and that it would soon be recruited to its maximum.


Mr. Alleman after thanking the adjutant for the very high compliment paid him, without a moment's hesitation, accepted the offer, on condition that he could render ade- quate service ; and proposed to start in at once and recruit a company for the regiment. So he wrote a poster an-


50


MEMORIAL HISTORY


nouncing, that, as Captain, he wanted 100 men for ser- vice in Colonel Jennings' regiment. The poster was ap- proved, and after discussing the several regimental posi- tions, and laying plans to secure the other eight compa- nies, they went to the office of the "Daily Telegraph," the poster was ordered to be printed forthwith, and after an interview with the editor, they separated to confer later.


On that date the "Evening Telegraph" announced that Col. W. W. Jennings had been authorized by the Gov- ernor to raise a regiment for the nine months' service . that its formation was an assured success.


After making complimentary allusions to the colonel, the editorial stated that H. C. Alleman, Esq., had been appointed a captain, and was recruiting a company at his law office for Colonel Jennings' regiment.


The poster was nailed on the freshly painted shutter of the law office that evening, calling for men to enroll under his command. While painting, I read the hand-bill and said, "I'll join you." I was the first to enroll, and the captain made me a recruiting sergeant. I finished the job of painting, and the next day fell to work recruiting, and by the end of the day four names were enrolled. Colonel Jennings came back to the office daily, and expressed great delight at our progress, for each day showed additional names, and by the 4th of August, 1862, thirty-four ac- cepted men were enrolled.


Colonel Jennings brought Captain Henderson into Cap- tain Alleman's office. He stated that his company was more than full, and that he would turn over all the men exceeding the maximum to Captain Alleman. He wanted his company mustered into service, and as H. C. Alleman had just been appointed second lieutenant, United States Army, mustering officer, he, on the fifth of August went


51


127TH REGIMENT, P. V.


to Hummelstown for the double purpose of mustering in Captain Henderson's company, and to secure a batch of men recruited by Captain Henderson, to fill up his own company. Of the 180 men recruited, 148 men were mus- tered into the United States service by Lieutenant Alle- man ; but every one of the Derry boys wanted to serve un- der Captain Henderson. Captain Alleman was greatly disappointed, as he fully expected to fill his company from the overflow of the Hummelstown company. He put his wits to work, made the best of the situation by trying to hide his chagrin, hoodwink the public, and con- cluded to make a bold show of apparent success. He sent two telegrams, one to Colonel Jennings, requesting him to order Captain Henderson to report his company fortlı- with at Camp Curtin; the other to me, to report myself and my recruits at the Reading Railway station at Har- risburg on the arrival of the afternoon train. There was no delay in the telegraphic order from Colonel Jennings, which threw Captain Henderson and his men into con- fusion. Captain Henderson consulted with Captain Alle- man, and they at once seized all of the cars and trucks, which, under an order secured from the superintendent, were attached to the afternoon train, and the men arrived in Harrisburg about three o'clock in the afternoon. These 148 recruits were formed into column with the thirty-four recruits in my charge in their rear, and they, in their straggling order looked like a small regiment. Captain Henderson headed the column, and Captain Alleman placed himself opposite the middle of the column, and so marched up Market street, and out Third street, passed the two newspaper offices, making, between the sounds of the drums and the cheers of the enthusiastic recruits, a lot of noise, which attracted the attention of the city edit-


52


MEMORIAL HISTORY


ors, who announced in the next issue of their respective papers, that Captain Henderson had marched into Camp Curtin with a full company from Hummelstown; and that Captain Alleman had secured a body of recruits from the lower end of the county, and that his Harrisburg recruits met them at the station, making his company "about full," and they too had marched into Camp Curtin. "Nothing succeeds like success." Rumors magnified the thirty-four men into three times that number, and the result was that men who wanted to enter the service preferred to join a company which was nearly full, in preference to a skele- ton, so that they would lose no time in getting to the front, which was then considered something desirable. The following day Captain Alleman's company was "full up;" but it was necessary to provide against the contin- gencies of physical rejection by the examining surgeons.


Lieutenant Rufus E. Cable, of Kansas, who had just married the daughter of Editor McCurdy, of Harrisburg, was anxious to be a captain. He recruited a squad of men in Dauphin county ; and Lieutenant William B. Oz- mun had a few men, and they both wanted to wear shoul- der-straps. It was an open secret that Captain Alleman would be promoted to field officer on the organization of the regiment; so that ambitious soldiers, looking for speedy promotion, were willing to take subordinate posi- tions, feeling reasonably sure that promotion would come speedily. A dicker was made for consolidation, and Lieu- tenant Cable was satisfied with the present rank of first Lieutenant. Joshua M. Wesitling, Esq., a Harrisburg law- yer, was promised the position of second lieutenant, and Augustus L. Chayne was assured the post of orderly ser- geant. William B. Ozmun was made second sergeant, and I was appointed third sergeant. Marcus Novinger, who


53


127TH REGIMENT, P. V.


brought a small squad from Millersburg, was ambitious to be a commissioned officer, and wanted to secure a regi- mental position for his friend, Frederick R. Gilbert, and by his foresight, saw his chance of success by accepting the position of fourth sergeant ; so the company was or- ganized, numbering an even hundred, composed of splendid fighting material, and were mustered into the United States service in Camp Curtin on Saturday, the 9th of August, 1862, and became Company D of the regi- ment.
