The Twenty-second Regiment, to which these two companies were assigned, as Companies C and D, was organized at Camp Utley, Racine; was mustered into service September 2, 1862, and left the State for Cincinnati on the 16th, under command of Col. William L. Utley. The regiment arrived at Cincinnati on the 18th, crossed the river on the 22d, and encamped south of Covington, in the vicinity of Fort Mitchell. On the Sth of October, it joined the brigade of Gen. Burbridge at Camp Smith, and on the 31st was assigned to the First Brigade, First Divis- ion of the Army of Kentucky. From the 13th of November until the 12th of December, the regiment was employed in provost guard duty at Nicholasville, on the Kentucky Central Rail- road, from which place it moved to Danville. During the stay of the regiment in Nicholasville, several deaths occurred, the first reported from Companies C or D. In Company C, the deaths were as follows: William H. Demming, on December 7, 1862; George C. Walton, December 23, 1862; and George E. Clark, January 5. 1863. Thomas Avery, of Company D, died in No- vember, 1862, and George Purdy, as reported, died in November of the following year.
At Danville, Ky., Fernando S. Crane, of Company C, died January 24; Joshua F. Rogers, January 28; and Martin F. Ross, February 1. In Company D, there were the following deaths: Henry Wood died in November, 1862; Willard M. Hall, January 8, 1863; Reuben H. Sipper- ley, February 11, 1863; Thomas J. Davison, February 15, 1863. Several of the deaths occurred after the regiment left Danville. Albert Cornue, who had been left sick at Lexington, died January 26, 1863.
On the 26th, the regiment left Danville for Nashville via Louisville. At the latter place. a member of the regiment dared resist an attempt which was made to take a fugitive from the ranks, and was well sustained by the general sentiment of the regiment. Nashville was reached on the 7th of February, and on the 21st, the forces were ordered to Brentwood Station, nine miles absent, for railroad guard duty, and thence to Franklin, Tenn., on the 2d of March, to re-en- force Gen. Gilbert.
The following deaths occurred during the early part of 1863:
Company C At Nashville, Wallace Spoor died February 18; Calvin G. Ellis, March 5: Hamilton Ingham, March 7; Benjamin F. Morgan, March 17. Company D-Henry Parker, February 25, at Brentwood, Tenn .; Arthur Stewart, May 6, at Columbus, Ohio; John D. Row- ley, March 24, at Franklin, Tenn .; Robert Russell, April 20; Robert Whidden, May 3; and George W. Wood, May 1, at Annapolis, Md.
On the 3d of March, the brigade, under Col. Coburn, was ordered to move to Spring Hill. A portion of the Twenty-second-363 men - under Col. Utley, formed a part of the command. The enemy was encounterd about four miles from Franklin, but fell back after slight resistance. The next morning, on the advance of our forces, the rebels continued to fall back until they reached Thompson's Station, where they were largely re-enforced and made an attack on our troops. After a fight of five hours, the force of Col. Coburn was obliged to surrender. Lieut. Col. Bloodgood, having previously moved to the rear with a portion of the regiment to protect the train, escaped with his command, but the rest of the Twenty-second, under the immediate command of Col. Utley, after fighting bravely and desperately, were either killed, wounded or taken prisoners, Col. Utley and eleven commissioned officers among the number.
The remainder of the regiment, under command of Lieut. Col. Bloodgood, was attacked by a large force of the enemy near Brentwood Station on the 8th of March. Being completely sur- rounded, and knowing that resistance was useless, the command was surrendered. The prisoners taken in these engagements were sent South -chiefly to Libby Prison. The officers were ex- changed the following May, and the men before very long.
After the exchange of prisoners, the Twenty-second was re-organized at St. Louis, and again went into active service. On the 3d of July, they went into camp within the fortifications

At the battle at Dallas on the 25th, Amos C. Fellows, of Company C, was killed, and John S. Dayton wounded. Corp. Thomas Kavanaugh, of Company D, was killed.
On the 1st of June, they moved to take part in the operations of the Twentieth Corps, at Pine Knob and Lost Mountain. On the 17th, they advanced to near the rebel intrenchments on Kenesaw Mountain; on the 19th and on the 22d, again advanced, being attacked, the latter time before they could fortify their position.
The casualties in the vicinity of Kenesaw Mountain were: Company C: Killed-John F. Rust and Michael Burns. Wounded- Capt. Darwin R. May, Sergt. Ela J. Cone, Corps. Almond D. Goodwin and Charles W.

At Peach Tree Creek, on the 20th, Corps. W. H. Bright and Rollin Reed, and Private James Owens, were wounded, all of Company C. Company D lost in killed: Privates Thomas Morrison, Wendall Fuhr, Peter Weiskoff and James Griffin. The regiment was highly compli- mented for its bravery in this engagement. Besides the losses already mentioned, there were the following in Company C: Theron Aiken died of wounds at Chattanooga, Tenn., May 30, 1864, and John F. Rust of wounds, at the same place, July 3, 1864. Darius T. Allen died at Jeffersonville, Ind., November 8, 1864, and James Aiken November 23, 1864, at Murfreesboro, Tenn. John L. Dayton was killed at Atlanta August 13, 1864.
On the 23d, the troops moved forward to Atlanta, and the regiment was occupied in construct- ing defensive works and in siege duty until the 25th of August. From that time until the 2d of September, it was stationed near the railroad crossing of the Chattahoochie. After the aban- donment of Atlanta by the Confederate forces, the city was surrendered by the Mayor, and the Twenty-second was the first regiment that entered. It remained encamped near the city until the march to Sayannah, when it was employed as train guard a large portion of the time. On the 16th of March, the Twenty-second took part in the attack on the rebels at Ben- tonville, driving the enemy before them at that point, and also at Averysboro on the 19th. After the ending of the grand march at Goldsboro, a few days' rest was taken, and after the surrender of Gen. Johnston, the regiment, with the corps to which it belonged, proceeded to Richmond, thence to Washington, remaining there and participating in the grand review, and thenee to Milwaukee, where they were paid and disbanded.
