Book Title: Past & Present Boone Co IL 1877

Passing over a period of some years, in which we find no absorbing incidents 
of importance, we come to that period in the Nation's history which is equally 
a part of the history of every county—the War of the Rebellion-and the part 
borne in that ever-to-be-remembered conflict by the brave and patriotic men of 
Boone.

When the peace and tranquillity of the North was disturbed by intelligence 
borne along the electric wires that Fort Sumter had been fired upon by the 
enemies of the Union of our fathers, there was awakened a sentiment of 
patriotism and unanimity that knew no limit until an army was raised and 
equipped that brooked no obstacle—that swept from the lakes on the north to 
the gulf on the south—wherever an armed hand was raised against the government—
that, with one voice reiterated and re-affirmed the declaration of the soldier 
statesman, President Jackson, that "by the Great Eternal, this Union must and 
shall be preserved." Imbued with the spirit of the men of '76, they pledged 
their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honors in defense of the 
government of their homes. Homes and their pleasures and comforts were given 
up for the hardships and privations of a soldier's life on the tented field of 
danger, carnage and strife. Such an uprising the civilized world had never 
known before. But the cause was just, and the triumph of victory only a 
question of time.

When this people were startled by the call "to arms," patriotic words from Dr. 
Daniel H. Whitney, always a true and noble, as well as a generous, public 
spirited and patriotic citizen, Gen. S. A. Hurlbut, A. C. Fuller, L. W. 
Lawrence, Wm. Haywood, D. L. Baker, Dr. Molony, and others, without regard to 
previous political opinions, needed no interpretation to inspire their fellow 
citizens to respond to their country's call. Men by hundreds offered their 
services, and their lives, if need be, in defense of the Nation's integrity 
and unity. Money by tens of thousands of dollars was placed at the disposal of 
the government, and thus it came that no county in all the counties of the 
patriotic North made a bolder or more honorable record of devotion to the 
Union than the noble one made by "Little Boone." Among the smallest in the 
state, not one of all the others more clearly defined its position. There was 
no halting between two opinions. Party lines that had sometimes been closely 
drawn were obliterated, harsh and bitter words previously spoken in moments of 
political excitement were forgotten and forgiven, and joining hands in a 
common cause, with a sincerity of motive, they united in a oneness of purpose, 
the remembrance of which will live as a monument grander, if not more 
enduring, than any ever fashioned out of granite or marble.

On the pages of Holy Writ it is inscribed that "he that provideth not for his 
own household is worse than an infidel." The influence of this text was not 
lost upon those in authority in this county, and measures were inaugurated and 
carried out to secure the families—the wives and little ones—of those who went 
out with their lives in their hands to meet the foes of the government, 
against want. Never was there a grander spirit evinced; never was there a more 
eloquent sermon preached from the text above quoted than when the county 
treasury was made the source front whence the supplies were drawn that secured 
soldiers' "loved ones" at home the necessary comforts of life. There was no 
grumbling __ont high taxes to keep the treasury full, nor were they grudgingly 
paid. Every one was glad of an opportunity to help in so noble a cause. 
Because of this knowledge that wives and little ones, aged fathers and 
mothers, were this provided for, though their beds were made upon mother 
earth, their covering only that of the azured canopy above, the dreams of 
Boone's boys in blue were none the less sweet, nor their slumbers less 
refreshing. The records of the official proceedings of Boone County show that 
during the war the sum of $161,011.56 was appropriated for the purpose of 
paying bounties and aiding in the support of soldiers' families. When it is 
considered that there are only eight townships in the county—that it is only 
twelve miles from east to west and twenty-four miles from north to south (less 
the fractional sections along the Wisconsin state line), and containing only 
two hundred and eighty-four square miles, this sum seems almost fabulous. 
Basing the population at 11,678, as reported by the census of 1860, this sum 
was equal to $13.78 to each man, woman and child in the county. In addition, 
each of the eight townships were equally as wise, generous and patriotically 
benevolent. Belvidere appropriated $38,422.58; Spring, $6,250.97; Flora, 
$6,124.10; Bonus, $9,212.50; Boone, $7,641.63; Manchester, $9,498.22; 
Caledonia, $4,629.86; Leroy, $10.912.83.

These appropriations swelled the aggregate to $252,704.25, increasing the 
proportion to $21.64 to each man, woman and child in the county. Add to the 
above total the sum of $63,176.06—(a sum equal to one-fourth of the amount 
raised by county and town taxation)—voluntarily contributed by the people and 
paid on the spot whenever occasion or circumstances seemed to demand, and we 
find a grand total of $315,880.31, appropriated by the patriots of Boone for 
bounties, etc., and increasing the total proportion to $27.05 to each man, 
woman and child in the county. Add the still further fact that, from first to 
last, nearly two thousand men* had enlisted from this county, and justice 
demands that Boone be recorded as the Banner County of Illinois in the great 
and final conflict between Freedom and Slavery!

Fort Sumter had been fired upon, and was surrendered to the rebels, April 13, 
1861. President Lincoln's proclamation calling for 75,000 men was issued April 
15, 1861. But already had S. A. Hurlbut, Esq., made a movement to organize a 
regiment of minute men in the northern counties. He had just returned to 
Belvidere from a trip to Washington and the South. He expressed his belief 
that the rebellion would prove a more formidable affair than the people of the 
North generally anticipated, because the trouble had passed beyond the range 
of compromise, if, indeed, it ever was confined to that limit, and that no 
possible mode except stern force existed by which the supremacy of the 
constitution and laws could be vindicated, and the Union maintained. A war 
meeting was called to meet at the court house at two o'clock, Saturday, April 
20. The meeting was the largest congregation of people ever seen in Belvidere. 
Dr. D. H. Whitney was chosen to preside, making a stirring speech on taking 
the chair. Dr. Molony followed, taking strong grounds against the traitors. 
Mr. Hurlburt, chairman of the committee appointed for that purpose, reported a 
series of resolutions, which were adopted as the sentiment of the 
meeting, "after which," said the Belvidere Standard of April 23, "he made one 
of
------------------
*This estimate includes men who enlisted in regiments raised in other States, 
as in Wisconsin, and other counties, of which there were a large number, and 
who were not all credited to Boone county.
------------------
the most ringing and soul-stirring speeches that ever electrified an 
audience." Such excitement was never witnessed. "Mr. Hurlbut," the Standard 
continues, "opened the muster roll with his signature.

"Judge Fuller then came forward with a resolution calling for the raising of a 
Citizens' war Fund, the subscriptions to be applied towards the support of the 
families of the volunteers during their absence in the war. The resolution was 
accompanied with his check for five hundred dollars. The meeting gave the 
Judge three cheers, and called for a speech. He took the floor, and for half 
an hour the meeting was swayed with an eloquence which we cannot describe. 
Strong men wept like children, and the Judge, himself, was agitated with 
emotions so strong as to almost preclude speech. We never saw an audience so 
completely under the spell thrown over them by a speaker. * * * The call was 
now for money. In less than an hour the following sums had been subscribed and

"The enlistment roll," continues the Standard, "was then opened, and fifteen 
or twenty men came forward and affixed their names. A meeting was fixed for 
the evening, in the basement of the Presbyterian church, which was packed 
full, a large number of ladies being present. * * * 

The meeting was called to order and brief speeches made by the chairman (Dr. 
Whitney), S. A. Hurlbut, W. Thompson, Wales W. Wood, and Dr. Molony. The 
subscription proceeded briskly during the intervals, and stopped a little 
short of $4,000."

At this meeting fifty-eight names were signed to the muster roll, up to the 
time the report was made to the Standard, and additions constantly being made.

By the 30th of April, one hundred and fifteen men had enrolled their names, 
elected officers and drilled daily and nightly. The officers elected were: S. 
A. Hurlbut, Captain; William Haywood, First Lieutenant, and D. L. Baker, 
Second Lieutenant.

"The Governor was telegraphed," continues the Standard, of May 11th, "that the 
company desired to be accepted as a part of the six regiments; but the 
unwelcome answer was returned that the six regiments were full, and over 
fourteen had offered their services who could nor be accepted. A bill having 
been introduced into the legislature, then in session, to authorize the 
Governor to accept ten additional regiments, who should go into camp, for 
instruction, thirty days, unless sooner called for by the President, one 
company decided to keep up their drill for a few days. There was some delay in 
the legislature acting upon this bill and some doubt in relation to its 
passage. The company, on the 4th, adjourned until the 8th, to determine what 
they would do. On Monday morning, the 6th, the Adjutant General telegraphed 
Captain Hurlbut to put his company in marching order and report himself and 
company at Freeport, last Saturday, the 11th inst. A citizens' meeting was 
immediately called for Tuesday evening, and it was then resolved that the 
company should be presented with a uniform military dress. A committee was 
appointed and left for Chicago on the night train, and on Wednesday at three 
o'clock telegraphed that the cloth was bought and would arrive at nine o'clock 
that evening. At ten o'clock that evening the goods were received and 
unpacked, the tailor shops in town transferred to the hall, and everything 
ready for action.

"Thursday morning found the hall almost crowded to suffocation, with ladies, 
all anxious to show their devotion to the good cause by hard work. And hard 
work it was. It was decided to abolish the word 'impossible' and see what 
could be done. And at it they went with a will. The tailors cut, the maidens 
basted, and the matrons put together, and at twelve o'clock Friday night the 
work was done. All honor to the fair ones of Belvidere. The thanks of grateful 
hearts and a soldier's blessing is your well-earned reward. Eighty-four men 
carry upon their persons the grateful evidences of your determination to act 
your part promptly. A few coats finished Saturday morning are not needed at 
present. Cloth was bought for one hundred, but owing to the uncertainty of the 
acceptance of the company, several volunteers who originally enlisted and went 
home, did not return. Several applications, however, were made on Saturday, 
and we have no doubt the company will be increased at Freeport to one hundred.

"At an early hour on Saturday morning, our citizens began to pour into town. 
At ten o'clock, as a mark of respect to our citizen soldiers, all stores and 
shops were closed and business in town suspended. At half-past eleven o'clock 
the procession was formed at the corner of State and Mechanic streets, under 
direction of Sheriff Garcelon, and at noon, precisely, the gallant Boone 
County Volunteers, in full dress and looking every inch the soldier, were 
escorted to the depot by from five to six thousand of their fellow citizens. 
Arriving at the depot a short time before the train was due, short and 
appropriate exercises took place.

"Doctor Whitney called the meeting to order, and after a few touching 
allusions to the solemnity of the occasion which had called together so many 
of the citizens, invited the Rev. Mr. Roe to offer up a prayer. Elder Roe then 
came forward and pronounced a most touching prayer. W. Thompson, Esq., 
addressed the soldiers and people in a short and happy speech of ten minutes. 
Rev. H. B. Holmes also delivered a short address. A. C. Fuller then came 
forward and presented a beautiful sword to Captain Hurlbut, who acknowledged 
its presentation as complimentary to himself and company, and on behalf of 
himself and company thanked the citizens of Boone county for the many acts of 
kindness shown them, and promised to give a good account of themselves should 
their active service be required by the government. Although the occasion was 
most solemn and imposing, nobody made a speech—nobody could make a speech—and 
to the credit of all, nobody tried to make a speech—the hearts of all were too 
full for utterance. There stood eighty-four of our citizen soldiers who had 
pledged themselves to maintain the honor of our flag, and if need be, to seal 
their devotion to the constitution and laws by their blood, the polished guns 
and glistening steel now in their hands to make good that pledge—and around 
them beat the aching hearts of fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, neighbors 
and friends, pressing on their ranks to take, as it may be, a last farewell. 
What can be said at such a time, except to give a word of encouragement and 
breathe a prayer for their welfare!

"No man or woman in this county but what ought to feel a common pride in that 
company. We are glad to believe their gallant Captain will be made a Colonel 
of the regiment. If so, First Lieutenant Haywood, who has seen service in 
Mexico, will probably be their Captain. The officers and men are a fine, 
healthy, and, we have no doubt, brave set of men. There may be some five or 
six 'wild ones' among them, but they will make good soldiers, and in point of 
intelligence and character the company will compare favorably with the people 
of the country."

Such was the beginning made by the gallant and brave sons of "Little Boone," 
that responded so readily to their country's call, swelling the army by 
thousands, and of the patriotic citizens, fathers and mothers, that so readily 
gave of their substance to save the government's honor, maintain its dignity 
and preserve the union they loved so well—

"A union of lakes, a union of lands—
A union none can sever— 
A union of hearts, a union of hands,
The American union forever."

Monuments may crumble; cities may fall into decay; the tooth of time leave its 
impress on all the works of man, but the memory of the gallant deeds of the 
army of the union in the war of the great rebellion, in which the sons of 
Boone bore so conspicuous a part, will live in the minds of men so long as 
time and civilized governments endure.

In concluding this section of the Past and Present of Boone County, what more 
fitting tribute can be paid, what greater halo of glory cast, around and about 
their deeds of valor, than a full and complete War Record, embracing the 
names, the terms of enlistment, the battles in which they engaged, and all the 
minutiae of their soldier lives? It will be a wreath of glory encircling every 
brow, and a memento which each and every one of them earned in defense of 
their country's honor, integrity and unity.

Sketch of 15th Infantry.

The Fifteenth Regiment Infantry Illinois Volunteers was organized at Freeport, 
Illinois, and mustered into the United States service May 24, 1861—being the 
first regiment organized from the state for the three years' service. It then 
proceeded to Alton, Ill., remaining there six weeks for instruction. Left 
Alton for St. Charles, Mo.; thence, by rail, to Mexico, Mo. Marched to 
Hannibal, Mo., thence, by steamboat, to Jefferson Barracks; then, by rail, to 
Rollo, Mo. Arrived in time to cover Gen. Siegel's retreat from Wilson's Creek; 
thence to Tipton, Mo., and thence joined Gen. Fremont's army. Marched from 
there to Springfield, Mo.; thence back to Tipton; then to Sed__, with Gen. 
Pope, and assisted in the capture of 1,300 of the enemy a few miles from the 
latter place; then marched to Otterville, Mo., where it went into winter 
quarters, Dec. 26, 1861. Remained there until Feb. 1, 1862. Then marched to 
Jefferson City; thence to St. Louis, by rail; embarked on transports for Fort 
Donelson, arriving there the day of the surrender.

The regiment was then assigned to the Fourth Division, Gen. Hurlbut 
commanding, and marched to Fort Henry. Then embarked on transport for 
Pittsburg landing. Participated in the battles of the 6th and 7th of April, 
losing 252 men, killed and wounded. Among the former were Lieutenant Colonel 
E. T. W. Ellis, Major Goddard, Captains Brownell and Wayne, and Lieutenant 
John W. Puterbaugh. Captain Adam Nase, wounded and taken prisoner. The 
regiment then marched to Corinth, participating in various skirmishes and the 
siege of that place, losing a number of men killed and wounded.

After the evacuation of Corinth, the regiment marched to Grand Junction; 
thence to Holly Springs, back to Grand Junction; thence to Lagrange; thence to 
Memphis, arriving there July 21, 1862, and remained there until September 6th. 
Then marched to Bolivar; thence to the Hatchie river, and participated in the 
battle of the Hatchie. Lost fifty killed and wounded in that engagement. Then 
returned to Bolivar; from thence to Lagrange; thence, with Gen. Grant, down 
through Mississippi to Coffeeville, returning to Lagrange and Memphis; thence 
to Vicksburg, taking an active part in the siege of that place. After the 
surrender of Vicksburg, marched with Sherman to Jackson, Miss.; then returned 
to Vicksburg and embarked for Natchez. Marched thence to Kingston; returned to 
Natchez; then to Harrisonburg, La., capturing Fort Beauregard, on the Wachita 
river. Returned to Natchez, remained there until Nov. 10, 1863. Proceeded to 
Vicksburg and went into winter quarters. Here the regiment re-enlisted as 
veterans, remaining until Feb. 1, 1864, when it moved with Gen. Sherman 
through Mississippi. On Champion Hil's had a severe engagement with rebel 
Carney. Marched to Meridian; thence south tn Enterprise; thence back to 
Vicksburg. Was then ordered to Illinois on veteran furlough. On expiration of 
furlough joined Seventeenth Army Corps and proceeded up the Tennessee river to 
Clinton; thence to Huntsville, Ala.; thence to Decatur and Rome, Ga.; thence 
to Kingston, and joined Gen. Sherman's army, marching on Atlanta.

At Allatoona Pass the Fifteenth and the Fourteenth Infantry were consolidated, 
and the organization was known as the Veteran Battalion Fourteenth and 
Fifteenth Illinois Infantry Volunteers, and numbering 625 men. From Allatoona 
Pass it proceeded to Ackworth, and was then assigned to duty, guarding the 
Chattanooga and Atlanta Railroad. Whilst engaged in this duty, the regiment 
being scattered along the line of road, the rebel Gen. Hood, marching north, 
struck the road at Big shanty and Ackworth, and captured about 300 of the 
command. The remainder retreated to Marietta, were mounted and acted as scouts 
for Gen. Vandever. They were afterwards transferred to Gen. F. P. Blair, and 
marched with Gen. Sherman through Georgia.

After the capture of Savannah, the regiment proceeded to Beaufort, South 
Carolina; thence to Salkahatchie river, participating in the various 
skirmishes in that vicinity—Columbia, S. C., Fayetteville, N. C., Battle of 
Bentonville—losing a number wounded; thence to Goldsboro and Raleigh. At 
Raleigh, recruits sufficient to fill up both regiments were received, and the 
organization of the Veteran Battalion discontinued, and the Fifteenth 
reorganized. The campaign of Gen. Sherman ended by the surrender of Gen. 
Johnson. The regiment then marched with the army to Washington, D. C. via 
Richmond and Fredericksburg, and participated in the grand review at 
Washington, May 23, 1865; remained there two weeks. Proceeded, by rail and 
steamboat, to Louisville, Ky.; remained at Louisville two weeks. The regiment 
was then detached from the Fourth Division, Seventeenth Army Corps, and 
proceeded, by steamer, to St. Louis; from thence to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, 
arrriving there July 1, 1865. Joined the army serving on the Plains. Arrived 
at Fort Kearney, August 14th; then ordered to return to Fort Leavenworth, 
Sept. 1, 1865, where the regiment was mustered out the service and placed en 
route for Springfield, Ill., for final payment and discharge—having served 
four years and four months.

Sketch of 45th Infantry.

The Washburne Lead Mine Regiment was organized at Chicago, Ill., Dec. 25, 
1861, by Col. John E. Smith, and mustered into the United States service as 
the Forty-fifth Infantry Illinois Volunteers. January 15, 1869, moved to 
Cairo, Illinois, February 1st assigned to Brigade of Col. W. H. L. Wallace, 
Division of Brig. Gen. McClernand. February 4th landed below Fort Henry, on 
the Tennessee, and on the 6th marched into the fort, it having been 
surrendered to the gun-boats. February 11th, moved toward Fort Donelson, and 
during the succeeding days bore its part of the suffering and of the battle. 
The flag of the Forty-fifth was the first planted on the enemy's works. Loss—2 
killed and 36 wounded. March 4th, moved to the Tennessee River, and 11th, 
arrived at Savannah. Was engaged in the expedition to Pin Hook. March 15th

of Shiloh, losing 26 killed and 199 wounded and missing—nearly one-half of the 
regiment. April 12th, Col. John E. Smith, of the Forty-fifth, took command of 
the Brigade. During the siege of Corinth, the regiment was in the First

marched to Bethel; 7th to Montezuma, and on the 8th to Jackson, Tennessee, the 
enemy flying on its approach.

During the months of June and July, engaged in garrison and guard duty. 
August, 11th, aligned to guarding railroad, near Toon's Station. On the 31st, 
after much desperate fighting, companies C and D were captured. The remainder 
of the regiment, concentrating at Toon's Station, were able to resist the 
attack of largely outnumbering forces. Loss—3 killed, 13 wounded, and 43 taken 
prisoners. September 17th, moved to Jackson; Nov. 2d to Bolivar, and was

Sketch of 95th Infantry.

The Nineiy-fifth Infantry Illinois Volunteers was organized at Camp Fuller, 
Rockford, Illinois in August, 1862, by Col. Lawrence S. Church, and mustered 
into the United States' service Sept. 4, 1862.

The Regiment moved from camp, Nov. 4th, and proceeded, via Cairo and Columbus, 
to Jackson, Tenn., and, afterward, to Grand Junction, Tenn., where it was 
assigned to Gen. McArthur's Division, Army of the Tennessee. Took part in Gen. 
Grant's campaign in Northern Mississippi, in the winter of 1862.

Moved from Memphis to Milliken's Bend in the spring of 1863. Participated in 
the march to Grand Gulf, and all the battles between that place and the rear 
of Vicksburg. Was in the charges of May 19th, and 22d, losing 25 killed, 124 
wounded, and 10 missing—a much heavier loss than that of any other Regiment in 
the Division.

In March, 1864, went on Red River expedition, under Gen. A. J. Smith, and was 
engaged at the capture of Fort DeRussey and in the battles of Old River, 
Cloutierville, Mansouri, Yellow Bayou, and all the movements of that advance 
and retreat.

In May, 1864, returned to Vicksburg, and soon after moved to Memphis and took 
part in the ill-fated Sturgis expedition. Was in the battle of Guntown, and 
fought with undaunted bravery, but was overpowered, and, with the whole of 
Sturgis' army, retreated in confusion to Memphis. Col. Thomas W. Humphrey was 
killed, and nearly the whole Regiment was killed, wounded or made prisoners. 
The campaign nearly annihilated the Regiment.

After recruiting at Memphis the command, in August, joined Gen. Mower. Moved 
up White river, and marched from Brownsville, through Arkansas, to Missouri, 
in pursuit of Price. The Ninety-fifth arrived at Benton Barracks, Missouri, 
Nov. 1, 1864. Nov. 30th, moved to Nashville, Tenn. Took part in battle of 
Nashville, Dec. 15 and 16, 1864, and in pursuit of Hood's defeated army to 
Tennessee river. Jan. 2, 1865, moved up the river to Eastport.

In February, 1865, embarked for New Orleans, arriving Feb. 21st.

On the 14th of March, moved to Dauphin Island, at mouth of Mobile Bay. On the 
18th, landed at Cedar Point, with Col. Moore's Brigade, and commenced the 
first offensive operations against Mobile. Took part in Gen. Canby's movement 
from fish river. During, the siege of Spanish Fort, carried its treaches to 
within 30 yards of the enemy's works, and participated in the storming and 
capture of the fort, April 8, 1865, being the first Regiment to occupy what 
was known, in the rebel line, as the "Red Fort."

After the fall of Mobile, the Ninety-fifth marched to Montgomery, Ala., 
arriving April 25th. From thence moved to Opelika, Ala.

July 18th, started home. August 3d, arrived at Vicksburg; 10th, at St. Louis, 
and moved to Camp Butler, Ill., where, Aug. 18, 1865, it was mustered out of 
service.

During the summer of 1864, the Regiment had a detachment of 100 men, with Maj. 
Charles B. Loop, Capt. James Nish and Capt. A. S. Stewart, in charge. They 
participated in the battles of Kenesaw Mountain, Chattahoochie river, Atlanta, 
Jonesboro and Lovejoy Station.

The Regiment has marched 1,800 miles, and moved, by rail and water, 8,160 
miles. Eighty-four men have been killed in battle or died of wounds and 176 
died of disease. Total number of men who have belonged to the Ninety-fifth, 
1,355.

The war ended and peace concluded, the Union preserved in its integrity, those 
of the sons of Boone who had volunteered their lives in defense of their 
government who were spared to see the Army of the Union victorious, returned 
to their homes to receive grand ovations and tributes of honor from friends 
and neighbors who had eagerly and jealously followed them wherever the 
fortunes of the war called them. Exchanging their soldiers' uniform for 
citizens' dress, they fell back to their old avocations—on the farm, at the 
forge, the bench, in the shop, and whatever else their hands found to do. 
Brave men are honorable always, and no class of Boone's citizens are entitled 
to greater respect than the volunteer soldiery, not alone because they were 
soldiers in the hour of the country's peril, but because in their associations 
with their fellow-citizens their walk is upright and their honesty and 
character without reproach.
