THE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT
That night the Second Division was moved to the left, back to the same position it held when the One Hundred and Sixth parted from it.
Grant was determined on another attack on Richmond from the north side of the James, and on August 13th, the Second Corps, two divisions of the Tenth Corps, under General Birney, and a division of cavalry, under Gregg, the whole under General Han- cock, marched to City Point and took transports, and on the 14th steamed down the river ; but this was only a deception, for as soon as it was dark they turned around and steamed up the river, and landed at Deep Bottom about daylight. Line was soon formed, the Tenth Corps on the right. After considerable skirmishing, strenuous efforts were made to carry the entrenchments, but with- out success, first by Birney, on the right, and then by two brigades of Barlow's Division; and about 4 o'clock in the afternoon an- other attempt was made by the First Brigade of the Second Divi- sion, but with no better success, owing principally to the depth of Bailey's Creek, which at that point, near Fussel's Mills, was about twenty yards wide, and so deep that some of the men were drowned in their attempt to cross.
On the 16th, Birney made another attempt, and advanced Terry's Division of his Corps, a Brigade of Mott's Division and a Brigade of colored troops, and succeeded in carrying the works, capturing about 300 prisoners and three colors, but could not hold the works and retired. Hancock was kept on the north side of the James until the night of the 20th, making no further assaults, but subjected to heavy skirmishing all the time; then returned to his former position, near Petersburg, having lost 321 killed, 1840 wounded, and 625 missing ; total, 2,786. Among those wounded of the Second Division, was Colonel Macy, of the Twentieth Massachusetts, commanding the First Brigade.
Marching all night of the 20th, the Divisions of Barlow and Smyth, First and Second, arrived in camp early on the morning of the 21st, with only a few hours rest moved on to the Strong House, west of the Jerusalem road, and in the afternoon again moved still further to the left, to the Gurley House, to support General Warren on the Weldon Railroad. This march was very hard on the men. Hancock says:
289
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH BATTALION
1864]
It was one of the most fatiguing and difficult performed by the troops during the campaign, owing to the wretched condition of the roads.
To Hancock was assigned the task of destroying the Weldon Railroad as far south as Rowanty Creek, and he at once com- menced. By the 23d he had got as far as Ream's Station, and at . night of the 24th, three miles further to Malone's cross roads. By this time, Lee thought it was about time to put a stop to the destruction of this important line of supply for his forces at Petersburg, and at once sent A. P. Hill with about 10,000 men to resist, and on the afternoon of the 25th, Hill attacked Hancock, who learning of Hill's advance, had returned to Ream's Station, and occupied the hastily constructed works, extending across the railroad in the shape of a horseshoe; the assault was directed against this part of the line occupied by Miles, who then com- manded the First Division, which occupied the right of the line, and that portion which extended across the railroad ; this part of his line giving way, the Rebels secured the works and nine guns, and crossing the railroad, captured the balance of Miles' works and McKnight's Battery. General Gibbon had returned and assumed command of the Second Division, which occupied the left of the line of works, and they were obliged to change front and occupy the reverse side of their works. Things at that time looked critical, when Colonel James C. Lynch, of the One Hundred and Eighty-Third Pennsylvania, who commanded a Brigade of Miles' Division, rallied a portion of his command, charged and recaptured most of his line and McKnight's Battery. Gibbon was then attacked and driven from his position, so that Hancock was compelled to withdraw his whole command back to another position, on the road running to the Jerusalem Plank road, and there he resisted all the efforts of the enemy to dis- lodge him, and the contest ended. This was the worst defeat ever experienced by the gallant Second Corps, and Hancock at- tributes it :
Principally to their great fatigue and to their heavy losses dur- ing the campaign, especially in officers, and then several of the regiments were largely made up of recruits and substitutes.
290
[1864
THE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT
His losses were 600 killed and wounded, and 1,762 missing ; total 2,372, nine guns and several colors.
Owing to the absence, on account of wounds and sickness, of large numbers of those who had entered the service in the early part of the war, these raw recruits in some cases formed a large majority of those present for duty in old regiments of high reputa- tion, and sometimes completely changed their character tempor- arily, and not only the character of regiments, but even of brigades and divisions. The large bounties paid volunteers and substitutes, amounting in some places, to a thousand dollars or more, had a very injurious effect upon the army, for it brought to its ranks many men who were actuated by very different motives from those that had influenced the men who had voluntarily filled the ranks before, and the veterans that now re-enlisted.
Among those wounded, was Colonel William Davis, command- ing the Sixty-Ninth Pennsylvania, to which was assigned the One Hundred and Sixth Battalion. He also had his horse shot from under him.
The troops were then set to work entrenching the new line front and rear, occupying all of September and part of October.
On October 25th, another advance on Lee's right flank was com- menced. Gibbon's Division, then commanded by General Egan, moved on the 26th to the left, in rear of the entrenchments, to the Weldon Railroad, and on the 27th reached Hatcher's Run, at daylight. Soon after, the Third Brigade, commanded by Gen- eral Smyth, to which the One Hundred and Sixth Battalion was attached, waded the run waist deep, charged the enemy's works, and carried them, then continued on past Dabney's Mills, and struck the Boydton Plank road, near Burgess' Tavern, and en- countered the enemy on the White Oak road. Smyth's Brigade again drove the enemy back, along the Boydton road, across Hat- cher's Run; there the Division was put into position on each side of the road, ready for action. Soon the Division was advanced, carried the bridge across the run, captured a gun, and were press- ing on to the heights beyond, when Mahone in force, attacked Hancock's right flank, and drove them back. Egan halted his advance, changed front, and with his entire command, fell upon Mahone and drove him with heavy loss, and in confusion, from his position, capturing two colors and a number of prisoners, and
291
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH BATTALION
1865]
recaptured the two guns that Mahone had taken a short time be- fore. After a brisk attack on Hancock's left, night put an end to the contest, and during the night Hancock withdrew to his former position, across the Weldon Railroad, and for want of ambulances, was compelled to leave about 250 wounded behind, at the Rainey House, detailing surgeons to look after their needs. His loss was, 123 killed, 734 wounded and 625 missing; total, 1481. This was the last engagement of the Corps that year, and they went into winter quarters in the entrenchments, west of the Weldon Railroad.
Early in February, 1865, with Major General A. A. Hum- phreys in command of the Corps, and Brigadier General Thomas A. Smyth commanding the Division, moved to support the move- ment of the cavalry to the left, to intercept the supply trains of the enemy, and were put into position at the crossing of Hatch- er's Run, by the Vaughan road, and at Armstrong's Mills, about a mile further up the Run. Smyth's Division being at the latter place. On February 5th, about 5 o'clock in the afternoon of that day, the enemy attacked Smyth, but was soon repulsed, and sent in haste back to their line. Continual picket firing and skir- mishing, but no advance was made by either side, until March 25th, when General Humphreys learning of the attack on Fort Steadman, made a counter attack on the works in his front, and carried their entrenched picket lines and resisted all the enemy's efforts to retake them. This proved a valuable point gained for the subsequent movements.
On the night of March 28th, General Ord, who had been placed in command of the Army of the James, arrived in rear of the posi- tion held by the Second Corps, with his army secretly withdrawn from the extreme right; a part of which, consisted of the new Corps, the Twenty-Fourth, to the command of which Major- General John Gibbon, who had so long commanded the Second Division of the Second Corps, was assigned.
The next morning the Second Corps advanced across Hatcher's Run by the Vaughan road until connecting with the Fifth Corps on the left. On the 30th we continued to advance, driving in the enemy's skirmishers, back to the Boydton Plank road, and before daylight on the 31st, the First Division under General
292
[1864
THE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT
Miles was advanced, and relieved Griffin's Division of the Fifth Corps, near the White Oak road. During the day, Warren's Corps, the Fifth, were forced back by the enemy from their posi- tion on the White Oak road, across a creek, a branch of Gravelly Run, near to the position to which Miles' Division had been ad- vanced. Humphreys then advanced his whole Corps to support Warren. Miles succeeded in turning the enemy's left, and War- ren soon after regained his lost ground. The assault of the other two Divisions of Humphrey's Corps, the Second, upon the works in their front on the Boydton road, and near the Crow House, was not successful. .
Late in the afternoon of April Ist, General Sheridan having been successful at Five Forks, General Humphreys was ordered to feel the enemy in his front, and if a weak point was found, to assault. He opened a heavy artillery fire upon their works, and Miles' and Mott's Divisions were advanced, but only succeed- ed in driving in the enemy's pickets. The artillery fire was, however, kept up until night.
At daylight on the 2d, General Wright with his Corps, the Sixth, assaulted the works in front of Forts Fisher and Welsh and carried them, driving the enemy back across the Boydton road, to the South Side Railroad. General Gibbon then advanced his Corps, the Twenty-Fourth, towards the Whitworth House. General Humphreys was then directed to assault the works in his front, and General Hays, who then commanded the Second Divi- sion, charged and captured the redoubts at the Court House, and later Mott's Division captured those near Burgess' Mill. Con- tinuing the advance through the night, Miles' Division came upon the retreating enemy near Sutherland Station on the South Side Railroad, and attacked them in their hastily constructed works, and after two repulses, succeeded in turning their right flank and forc- ing them from their position in great confusion; captured 100 prisoners, one color and ten guns. General Gibbon had assaulted with his Corps Forts Gregg and Whitworth, and after some fight- ing carried them both, capturing a number of prisoners.
General Lee, finding himself unable to maintain his positions at Richmond and Petersburg, decided at once to abandon them, which he did on the night of April 2d, so that early on the morn-
293
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH BATTALION
1865]
ing of the 3d, General Wilcox took possession of Petersburg, and at 8 o'clock General Weitzel took possession of Richmond.
Early on the 3d, Humphrey's Corps, the Second, pushed for- ward after the retreating enemy, following up Sheridan towards Amelia Court House, where it was found Lee was concentrating. About 2 o'clock in the afternoon of April 5th, arrived at Jeters- ville, about eight miles south of Amelia Court House, and was put into position on the left of the Fifth Corps. Large working parties of the Corps were at work on the roads during the 3d, 4th, and 5th, as they were almost impassable for wagons, owing to the heavy rains.
Early on the morning of the 6th, the advance was continued ; after travelling about four miles, General Humphreys discovered the enemy moving in columns westward, north of Flat Creek. Miles opened upon them with his artillery, and soon after General Meade directed Humphreys to cross the creek, which the men did by wading up to their armpits, and for nearly fifteen miles a running fight was kept up with the rear guard of Lee's army, carrying several partially entrenched positions, and at 6 o'clock had a sharp engagement at Sailor's Creek, again drove them, capturing thirteen flags, three guns, and several hundred pris- oners, crossing the creek and forcing them from their selected position ; until night put a stop to further pursuit. The Corps captured that day, thirteen flags, four guns, and 1,700 prisoners, and suffered a loss of 311, including General Mott wounded. General Barlow again reported for duty and was placed in com- mand of the Second Division.
That same day the Sixth Corps assaulted the position held by Ewell, carried it, captured General Ewell and his entire command, including five other General officers, so that he lost that day, by the assaults of the Second and Sixth Corps, about 8,000 men.
At half past five on the 7th, the pursuit was continued. Upon arriving at High Bridge, Barlow, who was in the advance, pushed forward at double-quick, and secured the wagon road bridge, driving back the enemy there found, who returned reinforced, and endeavored to drive back Barlow and destroy the bridge. This they were unable to do, and the whole Second Corps crossed. Hum- phreys then moved, with the First and Third Divisions, towards
294
[1864
THE ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT
Lynchburg and sent Barlow on to Farmville, where the enemy were found in large force. Barlow again attacked, cut off a number of wagons and burned them, but lost General Thomas A. Smyth, commanding the Third Brigade, to which the One Hun- dred and Sixth Battalion was attached, he being severely wounded. Humphreys came up with Lee's entire force near Lynchburg, and expecting the co-operation of the Sixth and Twenty-Fourth Corps on the right at Farmville, as per arrangements, attacked in force but was repulsed ; then remained quiet until night. General Humphreys speaks of his Corps that day and says :
Nothing could have been finer than the spirit and promptness of the men; all the commanding officers were at the head of their commands, literally leading them.
It was then that the first letter from General Grant to General Lee, asking for his surrender, passed through the lines of the Second Corps; the reply from General Lee was received the same night.
At half past five on the 8th, the pursuit was continued by the Second Corps, followed by the Sixth, and while on the march, Grant's second letter was sent to Lee through General Hum- phreys, and at dark Lee's reply received. They marched that day about twenty miles. After a few hours rest the march was con- tinued, and six more miles made; when about midnight halted until morning.
Early on the morning of the 9th, General Humphreys sent an- other letter of Grant's to Lee, and at half past ten continued his advance, when he received two verbal requests from General Lee, asking that further operations be suspended, as negotiations were going forward for a surrender. Humphreys replied he could not comply with those requests, as he had received no such author- ity from either General Meade or General Grant, and continued to press forward, and at II o'clock came upon Longstreet's com- mand, entrenched in the vicinity of Appomattox Court House, and formed for the attack, the Sixth Corps on his right; when just as they were about to begin the assault, General Meade ar- rived and suspended operations, and granted General Lee a truce, for an hour, in view of the negotiations for a surrender, which
295

was consummated that day. Generals Grant and Lee met about I o'clock. The preliminaries were completed, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon of April 9, 1865, the Army of Northern Virginia formally surrendered to the Army of the Potomac. The follow- ing is the number of officers and men, who were paroled not to again take up arms against the United States, until regularly ex- changed :

ROSTER
OF THE
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTH REGIMENT
PENNSYLVANIA VOLUNTEERS
The following roster of the Regiment has been prepared with much care, and is as free from error as was possible under the circumstances. The roster in Bates' History of Pennsylvania Volunteers was found to be very imperfect, (nearly two hundred names being omitted, including many who died or were killed in action, while not one-fourth of the wounded were so marked.)
After exhausting the records at Harrisburg, application was made to the War Department at Washington, D. C. This re- sulted in no better success, for the Assistant Adjutant-General, U. S. A., declared "The records of this office were not furnished for historical purposes".
The only resource left was continued correspondence with mem- bers of the Regiment and constant comparison and revision. Nearly ten years have been devoted to this labor, and the follow- ing is the result. Few deficiencies may still exist, but these cannot, at this date, be supplied. Some who were wounded in different engagements were never so reported, and hence are not so credited in this roster.
The compiler asks the kind indulgence of his comrades, and submits this roster as being as nearly correct as is now possible to be made.
