McCook; Lieut.-Col., O. C. Maxwell; Maj., H. Lee Anderson. This regiment was organized at Camp Chase in March, 1865, to serve for one year. It was ordered to Charlestown, W. Va., and assigned to Maj.-Gen. Egan's division, composed of one brigade of Eastern and one brigade of Western troops. The surrender of Lee's army caused the division and brigade to be broken up and the regiment was ordered to Washington, D.
