FIFTY-FIFTH REGIMENT PENNSYLVANIA VOLUN- TEERS.

The Fifty-fifth Regiment was recruited, under au- thority granted by Governor Curtin to Col. Richard White, during the summer and autumn of 1861, of which Company G was raised in Dauphin County. The regiment rendezvoused at Camp Curtin, where an organization was effected by the choice of field- officers. Three of the companies, B. E. and G, were for a time stationed at Camp Cameron, near Harris- burg, under the command of Col. Thomas A. Zeigle, and were instructed by regular army officers.

On the 224 of November the regiment, thirty-eight officers and seven hundred and fifty-seven men, lei't Camp Curtin and proceeded to Fortre- Monroe. Drill and discipline, which had been commenced at Camp Curtin, was here resumed, and the command was brought to a good degree of efficiency. On the Sth of December, in company with the Forty-fifth, Seventy-sixth, and Ninety-seventh Regiments. it em- barked for South Carolina, arriving at Port Royal on the 12th. The Fifty-fifth was immediately sent out to guard the small islands and approaches to the west of Hilton Head, where it remained until the 25th of February, 1862, when it was transferred to Edisto Island. While on duty here a series of attacks were made by the enemy in large force upon the com- panies, scattered as they necessarily were in holding the Union outstretched lines upon the coast. The most determined of these was made on the 29th of March, when Companies E, F, and G, posted at the head of the island. nearly twelve miles from the headquarter- of the regiment, were attacked by a force of the enemy estimated at two thousand. The action which ensued was severe, but the rebels were signally repulsed, with a loss to the three companies of about twenty killed and wounded. Gen. Evans, who was in command of the enemy, afterwards re- ported to the rebel governinent that he had made a

108

reconnoisance upon Edisto Island, and had found the enemy six thousand strong.

During the summer the only troops upon the island were those of the Fifty-fifth, and the duty, performed beneath a Southern sun, was very severe. On the 21st of October the regiment accompanied Gen. Brannan on an expedition, consisting of about four thousand troops, up Broad River. The command landed, under cover of gunboats, at Mackey's Point. and immediately advanced on Pocotaligo Bridge, the object of the movement being to destroy the Charles- ton and Savannah Railroad. At eight o'clock on the morning of the 22d the enemy was met at Caston. but were soon driven. At Frampton he made another stand, and after a sharp engagement was again driven, and retreated across the Pocotaligo River, burning the bridge as he withdrew. Here he took a strong position, and being largely reinforced from Charles- ton, held his ground during six hours, in which the battle fiercely raged. U'nable to gain an advantage, the ammunition being nearly exhausted, the Union forces withdrew under cover of night and returned to Hilton Head. The Fifty-fifth lo-t in this engage- ment twenty-nine killed and wounded. Near the close of the action, while bravely leading his men against a masked battery, Capt. Horace C. Bennett was killed.

The regiment was now stationed at Beaufort, S. C., where it remained for more than a year, performing picket duty at Port Royal Ferry, ten mile- from the town, and also serving in the capacity of heavy ar- tillery upon the fortifications.

On the 1st of January, 1864. the majority of the men re-enlisted for a second term of three year-, and on the 22d departed for Harrisburg. where. upon their arrival. they were dismissed for a veteran fur- lough. On the 23d of March the veterans and re- eruits returned to South Carolina, where the regi- ment, now numbering twelve hundred and fifty effective men, remained for three weeks engaged in drill and guard duty. On the 12th of April it em- barked for Virginia, and landed at Gloucester Point, opposite Yorktown. Here the regiment was assigned Division. Tenth Corp, Army of the James.

. to the Third Brigade ( Col. Richard White,, Third . quently engaged in several minor skirmishes. On the

Gen. Butler was here organizing his forces, consist- ing of about forty thousand men, to operate against Richmond by the right bank of the James. Embark- ing upon transport-, the Tenth Corp- moved up the river and landed at Bermuda Hundred, with the de- sign of seizing and fortitying the peninsula between the Appomattox and the James as a base of operation .. Advancing ten miles west, encountering little oppo- sition, the troops were set to work throwing up in- trenchments across the head of the peninsula, and soon had the neck of the " bottle" closed.

On the 9th of May, Ame- division moved out of the works and destroyed the Richmond and Peters- burg Railroad for a distance of two miles. Gen.

Ames then marched upon the turnpike towards Petersburg as far as Swift Creek, where he met the enemy well posted, and immediately attacked, the contest continuing until evening. Early on the fol- lowing morning Ames learned that Terry's division, in his rear, had been attacked. Facing his columns about and advancing, he soon encountered the rebel forces, and drove them as far as Drury's Bluff, near Richmond. On the 13th the Union forces were again pu-hed forward towards Richmond, but found the enemy strongly intrenched in a double line of works behind Proctor's Creek. The onter line was carried. and Gillmore's troop- continued the contest during the 14th and 15th, flanking the rebel position. But he had now been reinforced by troop- from Charles- ton, and (fen. Beauregard was in command. Seeing that the Union lines were greatly extended, and in many parts thereby greatly weakened, the rebel leader moved out of his intrenchments at night, and early on the morning of the 16th, under cover of a dense fog, fell upon the left flank with sudden and overpowering force. The Fifty-fifth occupied a position near the extreme left. and felt the full force of the enemy's blow -. Again and again he advanced to the charge. Portions of the line gave way. The Fitty-fifth stood -ide by side with the Fourth New Hampshire and gallantly held its ground, until, out- flanked and nearly surrounded, it wa- in danger of being captured. Col. White, as & last resort, selected three companies, C. D. and E, of his own regiment, and charged full upon the head of the advancing column. But it could not be broken, and the line was forced to yield. The loss in this engagement was very severe, being in killed, wounded, and prisoners, including those from May 9th, when the fighting conunenced, fifteen commissioned officers and three hundred enlisted men. The colonel, lieutenant- colonel, and adjutant were among the prisoners, and Lieut. John H. Barnhart was among the killed. The command of the regiment devolved upon Capt. John C. Shearer.

The army now fell back to its intrenched line at Bermuda Hundred, and the regiment was subse- morning of the 20th of May the enemy attacked the pieket line on Forster's plantation at daylight. One- half of the Fifty-fifth was in position and made a stern resistance, holding its ground until the yield- ing of the forces on right and left made it necessary for it to fall back to save itself from capture.

Butler, having completed his preparations, was upon the point of moving upon the enemy's lines about Petersburg, when he received orders from Grant to detach a heavy force under Gen. " Bakly" Smith and send it to the support of the Army of the l'oto- mac. The Fifty-fifth was one of the regiments selec- ted for this purpose, and was assigned to the First Brigade |Gen. Stannard), Second Division Gen. Martindale , Eighteenth Corps. Moving in transports

GENERAL HISTORY.

down the James and up the York Rivers, the corps debarked at West Point, and marched rin White House to Cold Harbor, where, on the 1st of June, it mnet the enemy, who wa- engaging the Sixth Corps. The line of battle was immediately formed and charged the enemy's works, capturing a line of rifle- pits and taking a large number of prisoners. The contest was continued during the Ist and 2d, but the principal charge was made on the morning of the 3d. Stannard's brigade was selected for the attack, and was formed in columns of regiments, in which the Fifty-fifth was the third. As it swept forward to the desperate work the intense tire of the enemy caused the front lines to waver, and finally to fall back in confusion upon the third, which was also momen- tarily deranged. Capt. Shearer, in command, was wounded, and scarcely had the next in rank, Capt. Nesbitt, assumed it when he also was stricken down, and it devolved upon Capt. Hill, who soon restored order and held his position, now in the front line. During the night breastworks were thrown up, which were oceupied until the night of the 12th, when the entire army withdrew. The loss in killed and wounded was four commissioned officers and one hundred and thirty-four enlisted men. In conducting this withdrawal from the enemy's front the Fifty- fifth was deployed in the front line of works, while the regiment- successively fell back in the stillness of the night until all had retired without casualties or disturbance.

Marching back to White House, the corps again embarked on transports, and moved, rig the Pamun- key, York, and James Rivers, to Point of Rocks, on the Appomattox, where it debarked, and early on the morning of the 15th advanced on the enemy's works in front of Petersburg, capturing eighteen guns and four hundred prisoner -. On the following morning Gen. Stannard ordered Capt. Hill to go forward with hi- regiment as skirmishers. He promptly advanced in the face of a hot fire and gained a position elose up to the enemy's lines, but not without serious Inss. On the 18th, Stannard'- brigade. occupying the ex- treme right of the line, resting on the Appomattox, was again deployed for a charge. In front was an open field, commanded by the enemy's infantry and artillery, acro -- which it must pass. Never faltering, the Fifty-fitth, which faced the ground most exposed. pushed forward obedient to command, and in less than ten minutes, while crowing this open field. it lost three commissioned officer- and eighty enlisted men,-more than half of its effective strength,-a large proportion killed.

.On the evening of the 29th the corps moved to the rear of the position held by the Ninth Corps, and upon the explosion of the mine, on the morning of the 20th, it was held in readiness to support the as- saulting column ; but the attack failed. and without being called into action, it returned to its old position on the Appomattox. For two months the regiment

was engaged in duties incident to a siege, being con- stantly exposed to the fire of artillery, and the musk- etry of the pickets and sharpshooters, scarcely a day passing without some luss.

During the night of September 2sth the regiment crossed the James, and marched to participate in the attack about to 'be made by the Army of the Jame- upon Chapin's Bluff. The capture of Fort Harrison was effected on the morning of the following day, but the Fifty-fifth being held in support of the attacking troops, did not become engaged. In the afternoon it was determined to carry the work- beyond, and at four o'clock, Col. Jourdan, in command of the brig- ade, ordered the Fifty-fifth to charge, and take a re- doubt in the enemy's second line. The One Hundred and Fifty-eighth New York was deployed to support it, by advancing through the wood- on the left, and the One Hundred and Forty-eighth New York to aet as skirmishers on the right. The Fifty-fitth advanced over the open ground in front, a quarter of a mile. under a concentrated fire from three redoubts, sup- ported by a heavy body of infantry. Bravely >tem- mning a torrent of shot and deadly minie-ball-, it moved steadily on, and reached a point within twenty yards of the work, when its rank- almost annihilated, and supports failing to come up, it was forced to tall baek, leaving the dead and most of the wounded upon the field to fall into the hands of the enemy. Of five commissioned officers and one hundred and fifty enlisted men who marched at the word of com- mand, three officers and seventy-eight men were either killed, wounded, or missing. Lient. Blaney Adair was among the killed, and Capt. John O'Niel mortally wounded. On the following day the rebels made three attacks on Fort Harrison, but in each they were repulsed with terrible slaughter.

In November, the colors which had been originally presented to the regiment by the Governor before leaving the State, earried in all its campaignings, and latterly almost constantly enshrouded in the smoke and fire of battle, having beenme badly tattered, ap- plication was made for a new stand, which wa- promptly forwarded. The staff and the few remaining shreds of the old one were deposited in the capitol.

In December the white troops of the Tenth and Eighteenth Corps were consolidated, and formed the Twenty-fourth Corps. The Fifty-fifth was assigned to the Fourth Brigade of the First Division, and was henceforward engaged in performing picket and guard duty on the left bank of the James. On the joth of December, while -tationed at the redoubt on Signal Hill, near the extreme right of our lines, it was attacked by a portion of Long-treet's corps. The demonstrations were feebly made, and were easily re- pulsed. On the 21st of December, upon the muster out of service of Lieut .- Col. Bennett, at the expira- tion of his term, Myj. Filler was promoted to succeed him, and Capt. James Metzger was promoted to major.

HISTORY OF DAUPHIN COUNTY.

On the 27th of March, 1865, the First and Second Divisions of the Twenty-fourth Corps, and one divis- ion of the Twenty-titth Corps, under command of Gen. Ord, broke camp, and crossing the James and the Appomattox, proceeded by the rear of the army to Hatcher's Run, and on the morning of the 29th relieved the Second Corps, which moved out still farther to the left. During the 80th and 31st a part of the regiment was on the picket-line near the run, and in the general advance which was made, skir- mished with the enemy, losing two men killed, and one commissioned officer and seventeen enlisted men wounded.

On the morning of April 20, in breaking through the enemy's lines, the Fourth Brigade, to which the regiment belonged, commanded by Gen. Fairchild, with the balance of the division, charged Forts Gregg and Baldwin, which. after a strong resistance, were carried, the Fifty-fifth being the first to occupy the latter. The los- here was one commissioned officer killed, and one commissioned officer and four en- listed men wounded. On the morning of April 3d, having ascertained that the rebels had evacuated Petersburg during the previous night, Gen. Ord's col- umn was pushed forward to cut off their line of re- treat at Burk-ville Junction. By a forced march along the South Side Railroad, Ord reached the June- tion on the evening of the 5th. a distance of about sixty miles. Resuming the march on the following morning, it hastened forward, seven miles farther, to Riee's Station. the Fifty-fifth leading the column as skirmishers, and losing nine men wounded. At the Station Ord held his position, cutting off the direct way of retreat to Danville, and forcing the rebel col- umn towards Lynchburg. At daylight on the 7th, Ord resumed the march, with the design of again cutting the rebel line of retreat. He reached Appo- mattox Court-House, a distance of forty-two mile-, early on the morning of the 9th, in advance of Lee's columns, and with Sheridan's cavalry held firmly the only aveunte of escape. "Sheridan." says Greeley, " was with his cavalry near the court-house, when the Army of Virginia made its last charge. By his order his troops, who were in line of battle, dismounted, gave ground gradually, while showing a steady front, so as to allow our weary infantry time to form and take position. This effected, the horsemen moved swiftly to the right and dismounted, revealing lines of solid infantry in battle array. before whose wall of gleaming bayonets the astonished enemy reeoiled in blank de-pair, as Sheridan and his trooper-, passing briskly around the rebel left, prepared to charge the confused, reeling masses. A white flag was now waved by the enemy, before Gen. Custer, who held our cavalry advance, with the information that they had concluded to surrender."

The First and Second Divisions of the Twenty- fourth Corps remained at Appomattox Court-Honse uncil the 17th, when they proceededl to Richmond

via Farmville, Burksville, and Amelia Court-House, arriving on the 25th. The regiment encamped on the outskirts of the city, and performed fatigue and gnard duty until the latter part of July, when it was ordered to report to Maj .- Gen. Hartsuff, at Petersburg. It was stationed at different points, in detachments in Chesterfield, Buckingham, Cumberland, Powhat- tan, and Amelia Counties, acting under orders from the Freedmen's Bureau. On the 30th of August the regiment was mustered out of service at Petersburg, whence it proceeded to Harrisburg, where it was paid and finally disbanded.
