Remaining on the mountain until daylight, it having been ascertained that the enemy had retreated, the regiment with the brigade marched to Keedysville and encamped for the night near a mill on Antietam creek. On the morning of the 16th a general forward movement was made, the Sixth moving with the brigade across the creek where the enemy's line was found posted to resist further advance. The Bucktails were ordered forward as skirmirshers, with the Sixth Regiment in sup- port. Emerging from a wood the Bucktails soon became hotly engaged and the Sixth rushed to their assistance. The two regiments gained the contested ground, but it being already dark and no disposition to advance being manifest, the fire slackened and the lines were established for the night, the Sixth occupying the edge of the wood next to the cornfield. The night was very dark and the men slept on their arms ready at a moment's notice to repel an attack. The gray dawn at last appeared, and every man nerved himself for the conflict. The death- like stillness was at length broken, and the enemy advanced under cover

of the corn. The caution was given to "fire low," and the sharp report of musketry soon marked the commencement of this fierce battle. The position was held, notwithstanding the persistent efforts of the enemy to advance, until the troops which had been pressed forward into the corn- field were compelled to retire, when the enemy gained the wood and subjected the Sixth to a flank as well as front fire. The line to the right having yielded, several of the rebel batteries concentrated their fire on the wood, which after unsuccessful attempts to clear it was abandoned, and, for the first time since the opening of the contest, firing ceased. Moving to the right, the division took a position in support of artillery, where it remained the balance of the day unengaged but subjected to the artillery fire of the enemy. In this engagement the regiment was much protected by the woods, yet sustained an aggregate loss of one hundred and thirty-two.
Resting on the battlefield during the following day, in which General Lee silently withdrew his forces, on the 19th it marched to the banks of the Potomac near Sharpsburg, where it remained until the 26th of Oc- tober. During this period much attention was given to the discipline of the regiment, and it left camp one of the best drilled of the division, which reputation it maintained ever after. It marched via Berlin and Hamilton, crossing the Potomac on the 29th to Warrenton, where it ar- rived on the 6th of November and went into camp on the ground occu- pied by the Reserves a few days previous to the second battle of Bull Run. The camp at Warrenton was broken on the IIth and the march resumed through Fayetteville, Bealton Station, Morrisville, Grove Church, Hartwood and Stafford Court House, to Brooks' Station on the Acquia Creek and Fredericksburg Railroad, where a very comfortable camp was formed.
The movements preliminary to the battle of Fredericksburg began December 8th, when the Sixth with the brigade marched from Brooks' Station and reached the hills on the north side of the Rappahannock, overlooking Fredericksburg on the IIth. On the morning of the 12th it crossed the river on a pontoon bridge about three miles below the city. A line of battle was formed at right angles with the river, the left of the brigade resting upon it. This position was held until daybreak of the 13th, when the pickets became engaged, and the brigade, the Sixth in advance, crossing a small stream under a dense fog marched through a cornfield to the Bowling Green road where the line was re-formed. The regiment advanced as skirmishers and drove the enemy from the crest of the hill and from their shelter behind fences and the railroad embank- ment. The battle now raged furiously. The enemy's second line proved a formidable obstacle, but soon yielded to the impetuosity of the Re- serves. Moving along up hill, followed closely by the brigade, it reached a road running along the brow of the hill near which a third line was encountered and a terrific fight ensued, ending in the discomfiture of the rebels. The regiment had now lost one-third of its entire number, the brigade had suffered heavily and Colonel Sinclair had been borne from

the field wounded, when the enemy was detected moving through the woods to the right in large numbers. At the same time a terrific fire of musketry was opened on the left of the brigade. The line began to waver and no supporting troops being at hand it finally yielded, and the regiment with the brigade fell back over the same ground on which it had advanced. In this battle, of the three hundred men who went into action, ten were killed, ninety-two wounded and nineteen missing. Mov- ing to the opposite side of the river on the 20th, the regiment went into camp near Belle Plain.
After having participated in the celebrated "mud march" it returned to its old camp and remained there until the 7th of February, 1863, when it was ordered to Alexandria to join the Twenty-second Corps. It did guard and picket duty until the 27th of March and then moved to Fair- fax Station, where it remained until the 25th of June, when it moved to join the Army of the Potomac and participate in the memorable Gettys- burg campaign. Marching via Dranesville, Edwards Ferry and Fred- erick, the regiment joined the army on the 28th, and was again assigned to the Fifth Corps. Continuing the march through Uniontown and Han- over, it reached Gettysburg at 2 o'clock p. m. of July 2nd, and made a charge from Little Round Top with but small loss. Remaining in front during the night, on the morning of the 3rd skirmishing commenced, which continued through the entire day. Towards evening another charge was made, capturing a number of prisoners, recapturing one gun and five caissons, and relieving a large number of Union prisoners. In this encounter the Sixth remained on the skirmish line until 2 p. m. of the 4th, when it was relieved and bivouacked on Little Round Top. It sustained a loss of two men killed, a lieutenant and twenty-one men wounded.
Pursuing the retreating rebels to Falling Waters, constantly skirmish- ing on the way, it encamped on the 14th, after having captured some prisoners near Sharpsburg, when it was ascertained that the rebel army had escaped across the river. Marching and an occasional skirmish and reconnaissance occupied the time until August 18th, when the regiment arrived at Rappahannock Station and remained until the 15th of Sep- tember, when it left for Culpeper Court House, which it reached on the 16th and went into camp two miles beyond the town, where it re- mained until October 10th. Returning it recrossed the river on the 12th and encountered the enemy at Bristoe Station on the 15th, having three men wounded by his shells. On the 19th it crossed Bull Run and bivouacked on the old battleground. The march was continued on the next day through New Baltimore to Auburn, and from thence, on the 7th of November, to Rappahannock Station, crossing the river on the 8th and on the Ioth taking possession of the rebel barracks, where it remained until the 24th. It again crossed the river on the 26th at Wykoff's Ford, and moving out on the road towards Gordonsville met the enemy at New Hope Church. The Sixth was deployed as skirmish- ers and sent forward to the support of the cavalry, which was now en-

gaged. Two charges of the rebels were repulsed by the left wing of the regiment. Its loss was two killed and four wounded.
On the 5th of December the regiment went into winter quarters near Kettle Run, where it was engaged during the winter on guard duty. Preparations had been carefully made for the spring campaign, and breaking camp on the 29th of April it marched to near Culpeper, and on the 4th of May crossed the river at Germania Ford, halting at the Wilderness Tavern. On the following day the Wilderness campaign opened. It was actively engaged on the 5th, 6th and 7th, contesting with great gallantry every inch of ground. On the 7th Captain Allen, of com- pany G, was wounded. At Spottsylvania, on the 8th, it was engaged in heavy fighting nearly the entire day, and on the 9th moved to the right of the line and built rifle-pits. On the Ioth it made two unsuccessful charges upon the enemy's works, and again on the 12th. The loss dur- ing these engagements was thirteen killed, sixty-four wounded and nine missing. Constantly upon the skirmish and picket line, the Sixth met the enemy on every field with unflinching courage. On the 22nd it cap- tured ninety men of Hill's Corps. At length the final day of its service arrived, and with it the crowning success of the Reserves at Bethesda Church. The regiment was deployed as skirmishers and had gained the Mechanicsville road, near the church, when it was attacked by an overwhelming force and compelled to retire with considerable loss. It then threw up a rifle-pit, upon which the enemy impetuously charged. Retaining its fire until the approaching foe was near, it poured forth a volley which inflicted most terrible slaughter. Although but about one hundred and fifty strong, the Sixth captured one hundred tnd two pris- oners and buried seventy-two dead rebels in its immediate front. Two officers of the Sixth were wounded and nineteen men captured.
After three years of service in the camp and on the march, from its initial victory at Dranesville to its final brilliant success at Bethesda Church, sharing always the privations and hardships of the Army of the Potomac as well as the glory which clusters around its name, the regi- ment on the Ist of June started for Pennsylvania, where with the Re- serves it was enthusiastically received, arrived at the State capital on the 6th and on the 14th was mustered out of service.

Creek. December 6th, to Petersburg; thence to Moorfield; thence, De- cember 18th, in pursuit of Imboden, through Wardensville, Capon Springs and Strasburg, to Winchester, arriving on the 24th. In May, 1863, the regiment was ordered to Webster, on the B. & O. R. R., to look after straggling bands of rebels. On the 20th returned to Winchester. June 12th, on reconnoisance in direction of Strasburg, where it had an engagement with the enemy. Battle on 13th and 14th; retreated to Harper's Ferry; 16th crossed to Maryland Heights. July Ist, Mary- land Heights evacuated; Eighty-seventh detailed to guard boats which carried quartermasters' stores to Georgetown, arrived on the 4th, and 7th joined the Army of the Potomac at Middletown (Md.). Partici- pated in the engagement at Manassas Gap, July 23rd; at Bealton Sta- tion, October 26th ; Kelly's Ford, November 7th; Brandy Station, No- vember 8th; Locust Grove, November 27th, and at Mine Run, Novem- ber 30th. Went into winter quarters at Brandy Station. Here one hun- dred and eighty of the men re-enlisted and were given a veteran fur- lough.
The Eighty-seventh bore a part in the battles of the Wilderness and Spottsylvania, but without serious loss. In the actions of the Ist and 3rd of June, 1864, at Cold Harbor, the regiment sustained a loss in killed and wounded of about one-third of its strength. With the corps it moved from Cold Harbor, crossing the Chickahominy to the James. It moved by boats from Wilcox Landing to Bermuda Hundred, where it remained three days with General Butler's command, then crossed the Appomattox and took position in front of Petersburg on the extreme left of the army. June 23rd, with part of the Sixth Corps, it moved upon the Weldon Railroad, tore up the track for a considerable distance, and had an en- gagement with the enemy. July 6th it moved with the division to Fred- erick. In the battle of the Monocacy it suffered a heavier loss than in any other battle during its entire term of service. September 19th it moved with the army under Sheridan against the enemy at Opequan. The Eighty-seventh lost in this engagement sixty in killed and wounded. In the action of the 22nd, at Fisher's Hill, the regiment lost one killed and one wounded.
September 23rd, its term of service having expired, it was ordered (with the exception of veterans and recruits) to York, and October 13th mustered out of service. The veterans and recruits were formed into a battalion of five companies. This battalion took part in the battle of Cedar Creek, October 19th. In March, 1865, five new companies were added to the battalion, making it a full regiment.
