127TH REGIMENT, P. V.
I was hailed and urged to take the lead, so that the com- pany could be raised. Quite a number of prominent men were at this meeting, and several young men from the country, among them Solomon Strickler, and others, who promised to recruit thirty men if I would take the cap- taincy. Other prominent men took part, urging me to head the company, saying it was a shame that Middletown should not raise a full company ; that if I took hold there would be no trouble, for no other man in town, they said, could raise it. This was flattering to me. I replied, "I will go to Harrisburg tomorrow and inquire how matters stand." I told my wife what occurred, and said I would go to Harrisburg next day and learn the situation, but she strenuously objected. If I were a single man I would have gone from the first ; but having a wife and four chil- dren I thought it my duty to attend to them. However, next day, Wednesday, I went to Harrisburg and made in- quiry. Came home; boys met me at the train. I told them to go to work ; must report on Saturday, the 9th of August, it being the last day to get into the nine months' service. Confidence shown by my fellow townsmen was very gratifying to me. Middletown having already sent two squads of my home guards to the front, the year be- fore, it was draining the men very close.
"Thursday morning, August 7th, Solomon Strickler called at my house with his span of horses, and we drove over the country to the Lancaster county line, but se- cured no recruits, they had joined Colonel Franklin's regiment at Lancaster. Drove around to Hummelstown; saw Captain Henderson, who had just come from Harris- burg. He said, "I have more men than I can take, but I promised them to Captain Alleman, of Harrisburg." So we came home without any recruits. Ephraim Cobaugh and

MEMORIAL HISTORY
Samuel Searfoss promised to raise sixty men about Hum- melstown. Cobaugh wanted to be first lieutenant, and Searfoss second lieutenant. Meeting in the evening at Union Hall. I stated my experience during the day, and it looked very blue for a company. With much enthusi- asm the meeting resolved that we could and should raise a company here. I told them I preferred to have the full company from Middletown and vicinity. After patriotic speeches from some of the citizens, it was agreed to meet on Friday night in Union Hall. Much enthusiasm.
"Friday evening, August 8th, went to Harrisburg. En- gaged transportation for 110 men. In the evening met at Union Hall, at 8 p m. Informed the men we must meet there at 8 o'clock next morning (Saturday) to elect offi- cers.
"The wife of J. K. Shott was very patriotic. She did not cry, but said it was the duty of every able bodied man to go and fight for the Government. This stimulated her husband to accept the first lieutenancy when it was offered to him. His only child, Frank, also enrolled. This move had a good effect in my family.
"Saturday morning, August 9th. Meeting called to or- der at 8 o'clock. First thing in order, election of officers. Jeremiah Rohrer elected captain, unanimously. John K. Shott was elected first lieutenant, and Isaiah Willis second lieutenant. Adjourned to meet at II a. m., as the train leaves at twenty minutes of twelve. My wife more rec- onciled since Mr. Shott, our next door neighbor and for- mer partner of mine in the door and sash factory, had joined us.
"Met at Union Hall at II a. m., boys rather slow. Got together, marched past my house; windows all open ; saw no one. I called "Halt !" Ran into the house, and upstairs.

There my wife sat crying with the babe in her arms. I thought I would sink through the floor. If I had acted as I felt, I would have remained at home, but honor and duty prevailed. Started for the station. Marched the boys about and kept them going, halting occasionally for one of the preachers to give them a talk. Then the moth- ers of the boys would come to me and say, "Now, take good care of my boy," the tears running down their cheeks. This was more than I could stand. Ordered "attention"! and marched them away, for I tried to keep a bold front. Train arrived, and we left for Harrisburg amidst hundreds of our people cheering, and the women, generally crying.
"Arrived at Harrisburg ; marched to Camp Curtin. Met by Andy Unger on horseback, who led us to our camp- ing ground. Ordered a detail of thirty men to draw tents, and fifteen men to draw rations. Tents put up, rations drawn, then a little drill in facings,-"Right," "Left," etc. Drilled them well, and the boys were ready for sup- per. Slept without blankets. Not a man had a blanket ; so we all lay on the grass in the tents.
"Sunday morning, August 11th. Bright and clear. Ugly weather would have worked disastrously. The men had not been sworn in, and if the weather had been rough, they not being accustomed to it, might have walked home and the company been broken up, for it was composed of just such material. Many of the men were saw-millers and got good wages. After we left Middletown, the saw- mills were shut down. They had been running day and night on government work. They had hard work to get men enough to run in day time. Many persons from Mid- dletown visited camp on Sunday. Drew one day's cooked rations, and all were supplied with blankets. The com-
86
MEMORIAL HISTORY
missary was rushed to its utmost capacity, and sometimes ran short of cooked meat, so that it required time and pa- tience to draw the rations for the men. The cause was the great rush of troops coming into the camp. At sup- per, several men said, "Captain, those fellows are eating all the meat, and won't give us any." I then told the boys that they must serve out the rations fairly, and give each one what belongs to him, for there was enough for all.
"Monday, August 1Ith. Made arrangements to have the men examined after dinner by Dr. Miller. All passed but two, and they were old fellows with bad eyes.
"Tuesday, August 12th. Called the men together and ordered them to remain about the tents. Marched them to quarters of Captain Lane, and had eighty-one sworn into the United States service. I felt much relieved. Sev- eral who were examined did not report, and several were present who had not been examined. Drew kettles, pans, knives and forks, plates and spoons.
"Wednesday, Auguest 13th. I was notified to bring my squad to Harrisburg to Captain Lane's office, to have them sworn into the United States service as a company. Twelve additional men sworn in, which gave me ninety- three men, rank and file. I was entitled to ninety-eight men, without the commissioned officers, but I took the ad- vice of an officer not to bother about the other five, al- though more than that number wanted to join afterwards. I said, "Too much red tape and trouble." If any man felt relieved, I did when the company was mustered in.
"Thursday, August 14th. Nothing but drilling in the forenoon, and camp duties. At the request of Mr. Kelker, I marched my company to Harrisburg (about 4 o'clock) to receive a present of fifty dollars for each priv- ate front Dauphin county, voted by the commissioners.

This was unexpected to me, and I believe to all the rest of the company. It certainly was a great help to those who left families or parents at home dependent on them. Halted on the river bank, in front of Mr. Kelker's house, where each member received the gift with thanks. I had the chance to go home with J. L Gingrich in a buggy ; so I said to Lieutenant Shott, "You take charge of the com- pany, I am going home to settle up my affairs." This is my first visit home since the company came to Camp Cur- tin. Near midnight I heard considerable noise about the street. About one-half of the company were home and having a glorious time. Scarcely twenty men slept in camp.
"Friday, August 15th. Fixed and settled my accounts. Returned to Harrisburg at noon, and found my men in camp all right. All the captains of twenty companies were called together by Captain Tarbutton at 5 p. m., and no- tified that they must draw clothing and be ready to march at once.
"Saturday, August 16th. Drew uniforms for the men, then marched to Wallower's warehouse at P. R. R., in Harrisburg, and drew our Springfield rifle muskets. Re- turned to Camp Curtin. Boys proud of their new guns and blue clothing. It took considerable swapping until the little fellows got short pants, and the big fellows long ones, so as to fit all around. It was amusing to see a lit- tle fellow with his pants rolled half way up to his knees, and a big fellow with pants six inches too short; same with coats. A bundle of clothes, shoes and all was handed out to each man, and the only way to get some- thing of a fit was to trade with each other.
"More trouble. A committee of Company "H" waited on me and stated their grievances. Said it was reported that I

was to be major of the regiment ; that they enlisted in my company, and expected that I would be their captain; and now I was going to leave them. Had they known this, they would not have joined the company. I then told them that if I was major, I could do more for them than if I was only captain ; that they would have a good captain in J. K. Shott, and that both of us would have more in- fluence than only one; that we would look to their wel- fare jointly and severally, upon which they could depend. I promised that I never would forsake those whose moth- ers charged me, when we left home, with tears rolling down their cheeks, to take good care of their boys. "All of you I have known, some of you are my neighbors, and all of you are my friends ; others I have known for years ; therefore rest assured, I will act as a father should act for his children." This had a good effect, and I never heard any complaint afterwards. That night, August 16th, midnight, nine captains met in Harrisburg and elected field officers. The regiment was organized, and at 9 a. m. Sunday, August 17th, Company "H" of the regiment was on cars for Baltimore.

127TH REGIMENT, P. V.
Company "H" sustained its full share of the casualties of war, and it and Company "K" were the only com- panies in the regiment which had any of their men cap- tured by the enemy. The company was made up of very determined men, who made a good record, and Lieutenant Knisley who was mortally wounded in leading the skir- mish line at the battle of Chancellorsville, was as brave an officer as ever drew a sabre. He had the respect of every man in his command, and the full confidence of the regi- mental officers.
The company was mustered out of service, at Camp Curtin, May 29, 1863.
COMPANY "1."
A LTHOUGH Captain Ira R. Shipley recruited many of his men in Adams county, and the com- pany was usually designated as an Adams county company, it was made up by recruits from other localities. There was a consolidation of squads recruited by Professor James S. Shoemaker in the Lehigh district, with others recruited by Lieutenant Je- rome W. Henry.
The company was unfortunate in its early organization, and, notwithstanding the fact that it was composed of good material, it necessarily took its general character, as well as reputation, from its company commanders.
Captain Shipley resigned on surgeon's certificate of dis- ability in a very few weeks after his muster into the ser- vice, and it was deemed best for the company that some- one outside of its organization should command it. Lieu-
94
MEMORIAL HISTORY
tenant Christian A. Nissley of Company "C" was selected by the colonel as a suitable officer who could give strength and character, and inspire spirit into the company. This promotion was readily endorsed by the other field officers, and he was in due time commissioned and mustered in as captain of the company. The sequel showed the good judgment of the colonel, as he made a most excellent company commander.
While Lieutenant Shoemaker yielded like a good sol- dier to the judgment of his superior officers, he evidently felt some chagrin in having a promotion made over his head, and worked hard to retrieve himself, and unneces- sarily braved danger on the battle field of Fredericksburg to command promotion for his daring heroism. He proved his courage; but unfortunately at the cost of his life.
Lieutenant Henry also proved himself a gallant officer at the battle of Fredericksburg, where he was wounded, and was promptly promoted for deserved merit. His promotion made a vacancy, and the colonel again con- cluded to go outside of the company to find a suitable person to fill his place. He selected William W. Reed of Company "F", the regimental clerk, who proved a good selection, as he made a capable and meritorious officer.
Both Captain Nissley and Lieutenant Reed were ac- ceptable to the company, and became very popular with their command. These officers took a great pride, not only in their positions, but in their company, and Com- pany "I" under their leadership, made a good record.
