When in June, 1863, Pennsylvania was a second time invaded, the citizens of Schuylkill county as well as other portions of the State at once took measures to meet the emergency. A mass meeting was held, and companies were raised and sent forward to Harrisburg. It is said that 700 men left the county within 24 hours. Of thirteen employes of the Miners' Journal office ten volunteered, and the other reluctantly remained to prevent the suspension of the paper. On their arrival at Harrisburg these volunteers were organized into the 27th P.V.M. of which companies A,B,C,E,G, and I, were from this county. Three-A,B and C-were from Pottsville; E from Tamaqua, G from Ashland and I from Frai- ley township. It moved to Columbia on the 24th and as it guarded the bridge across the Susquehanna there it was on Sunday, the 28th, attacked by a largely superior force of the rebels, who were prevented from crossing, and thus the Pennsylvania Railroad as well as other roads and bridges saved from destruction. In this action the regiment suffered no loss. Three deaths from disease oc- curred during its short term of service. TWENTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT. This regiment, in which were some forty men from Schuylkill county, was raised under authority of Governor Curtin by Colonel (afterward General) Geary, who was subsequently governor of the State. It was uniformed and equipped at his expense, and under his command and that of the able officers who succeeded him it achieved a brilliant record. Space will not permit a detailed account of the career of this regiment, in which the few men from this county bore an honorable part. It served through the term for which it was mustered, and many of its veterans re-enlisted and served to the end of the war. The following represented Schyuylkill county in this regi- ment: James Silliman, jr., lieutenant; Daniel Sitter, Thomas Cun- ningham, Alexander McKecheney, corporal; William Moyer, Sidney Glase, Edward Dailey, Francis Agnew, Thomas Young, Gideon Mosser, Aaron Mosser, Thomas McGurl, Daniel Schwenk, Maberry Trout, Brian Dolan, Thomas Hart, William Leffler, Jacob Shoemaker, Patrick Canfield, James Garley, Thomas Highman, James Shirey, Gustavus Hoffman, John Morgan, Charles Barnett, Richard Brennan, John Killrain, Jacob Arnold, Edward R. Eveland, Herbert Weston, Wil- liam Horn, William J. Schreffler, Jacob Bobst, Philip Goulden, James Hughes, John Lavenberg, sergeant; Alexander McDonnell, Andrew Wilson, Emanuel Spartzer, Henry E. Moore, Thomas J. Fos- ter, color corporal. THIRTY-NINTH REGIMENT P.V.M. Nearly all the men in this regiment were from Schuylkill county. They went into the service for the purpose of repelling the invaders who came into Pennyslvania the second time. In July, 1863, they left Harrisburg for Carlisle, and thence went to Shippensburg, from which place they marched to Chambersburg and to Green Castle. The invaders had been to these places and retired before the arrival of this regiment. Had opportunity presented, the men of this regiment would have done battle val- iantly in defense of their State. FORTIETH REGIMENT--ELEVENTH RESERVES. This was a three-years regiment in which Schuylkill county was represented by about thirty men. It was organized on the 1st of July, 1861, and on the 30th was mustered into the service of the United States at Washington. In September it had a slight skir- mish with the rebels across the Potomac while doing picket duty, and in December it went into winter quarters near Lewinsville. In June, 1862, the regiment went to the Chickahomminy, and at the battle of Gaine's Mill was fiercely engaged, losing forty-six killed and one hundred wounded. The regiment was captured here and sent to Richmond, whence it returned in August. It was in the second Bull Run campaign, in the Maryland cam- paign following, and those of Fredricksburg and Gettysburg, in all of which it was warmly engaged. Its last service was in the Wilderness, where it was engaged and under fire during several days. Immediately after the battle of Bethesda Church it re- turned to this State and was mustered out. The following were from Schuylkill: John Koch, William Matteer, John Drawble, musician, Christian Ernst, ÊMichael McCue, C.W. Keyser, H. Dintinger, John Bitner, William Bitner, Ferdinand Wentz, William Overy, C. Haldeman, Lewis Moyer, William Ray, Charles J. Foulk, Joseph Herring, Terence Conigham, Holden Chester, John Canning, John Delay, Joseph Mosser, Isaac Williams, Josiah Poke, Daniel Kistler, Josiah Detrich, Noah Krum, Moses Neyer, Monroe P. Martin, David Adams, Aaron Rex. __________end page 117.___________ page 118 HISTORY OF SCHUYLKILL COUNTY. _____________________________________________________________ CHAPTER XVIII. _______ A REGIMENT OF SCHUYLKILL COUNTY MEN THE FORTY-EIGHTH PENNSYLVANIA VOLUNTEERS. ___________________ In response to the call of the President in 1861 for one hundred thousand men Governor Curtin authorized Colonel James Nagle, of Pottsville, to raise a regiment. Colonel N. determined that it should be composed wholly of Schuylkill county men, and in the work of recruiting he associated with him Joseph A. Gil- mour, James Wren, Henry Pleasants, Joseph H. Hoskins, Daniel Nagle, Daniel B. Kauffman, John R. Porter, H.A.M. Filbert, Wil- liam Winlack and Philip Nagle. About the middle of August re- cruiting commenced, and the regiment was ready to go forward by the 20th of September. A few of the men had seen service in the three months campaign. Company A was recruited in Port Clinton and Tamaqua; Companies B,C,D,G, and H in Pottsville; Company E in Silver Creek and New Philadelphia; Company F in Minersville; Company I in Middleport and Schuylkill Valley, and Company K in Schuylkill Haven and Cressona. James Nagle was commissioned colonel, David A. Smith lieutenant-colonel, Joshua K. Sigfried major, and John D. Bertolette adjutant. The regiment was presented by Governor Curtin with a stand of colors in behalf of the State, and another from John T. Werner, of Pottsville. The last bore the inscription, "In the cause of the Union we know no such word as fail." On the 24th of September the regiment went forward to For- tress Monroe, where it arrived on the 26th, and at once military discipline and drill commenced. On the 11th of November it sailed for Hatteras Island, N.C., where it arrived on the 12th. During its stay here it was thor- oughly drilled and disciplined. While here Colonel Smith re- signed, and Major Sigfried was promoted to fill the vacancy, and Captain Daniel Nagle was made major. March 12th six companies went to Newbern, and though they were not in the battle at that place they did important service by escorting and carrying ammunition. On the 8th of July the regiment arrived at Fortress Monroe, and during its stay of nearly a month Major Nagle resigned and Captain Kauffman was promoted to fill the vacancy. On the 4th of August the regiment arrived at Fredericksburg. On the 12th it moved up the Rappahan- nock and joined the army of General Pope at Culpepper on the 14th; thence it went, via Cedar Mountain, Stevensburg, White Sulphur Springs, Warrenton and Manassas Junction, to Bull Run, where at the second battle it was first engaged. It acquitted itself with great honor there and sustained a loss in killed, wounded and missing of one hundred and fifty-two. It was again engaged at Chantilly, with but a slight loss. From the field of Chantilly it went to Alexandria, and thence on the Maryland campaign, marching through Washington, Leesboro, Brookville, Haymarket, Kemptown and Frederick City to South mountain, where on the 14th of September, 1862, it was engaged, suffering a loss of eleven wounded and one missing. Here Colonel Nagle received his commission as brigadier-general, and soon afterward Lieutenant-Colonel Sigfried was made colonel, Captain Henry Pleasants lieutenant-colonel and Captain James Wren major. After the battle of Antietam the regiment went into camp at Pleasant Valley, near Harper's Ferry. Thence it moved on the 27th of October, crossed into Virginia at Berlin and marched by the way of Lovettsville, Bloomfield, Upperville, Piedmont and Orleans; crossed the Rappahannock and on the 10th of November skirmished with Stuart's cavalry near Amissville. It encamped at Falmouth on the 19th, and on the 11th of December made prepara- tion for the battle of Fredericksburg, in which it was engaged on the 13th and in which, by its coolness under a murderous fire, it won the highest commendations. In February, 1863, the regiment with its corps was detached from the army of the Potomac, and late in march it was ordered west. It arrived in Lexington about the first of April, and remained in the city during the summer, engaged in provost duty. On the 10th of September it was ordered to East Tennessee and on the 28th it arrived at Knoxville via Nicholasville, Crab Orchard, Cumberland Gap and Tazewell. On the 4th of October it moved by rail to Bull's Gap, and on the 5th it marched to Lick creek. Thence it went to Blue Springs, Ky., and participated in the battle at that place; returned by rail and marched to Knoxville, where it arrived on the 15th. It remained in camp at Lenoir, on the East Tennessee Railroad, about a month, and on leaving became engaged in a sharp action, which lasted all day, near Campbell's station, in which it lost one killed, one wounded, one prisoner and one missing. On the 17th it retired within the defenses of Knoxville, and was engaged in resisting the siege till it was raised on the 5th of December. Two days later it went into camp at Pleasant Valley, where most of the men re-enlisted and re- ceived a veteran furlough, to date from January 13th, 1864; they returned to Pottsville, where they arrived February 3d. At the expiration of its furlough the regiment went to Virginia with its corps (the 9th), and was reviewed by the President as it passed through Washington. It encamped at Bristoe's station March 29th, and on the 6th and 7th of May took part in the battle of the Wilderness. It was again engaged at Spottsylvania, where it bravely resisted a desperate attempt to drive back the Union line and lost heavily. Up to the close of this battle its losses since its return to Virginia had amounted to one hundred and eighty-seven. From the 25th to the 31st of May it was engaged in skirmishing in the vicinity of Tolopotomy, and during this time Major Gilmour, Lieutenant Samuel Laubenstine and William H. Hume were killed by sharpshooters. On the 3d of June it was engaged _________end of page 118.___________ page 119 HISTORY AND MEMBERSHIP OF THE FORTY-EIGHTH ________________________________________________________ in the battle of Cold Harbor, where it lost seventy-five killed and wounded. On the following day it gallantly repulsed, without loss, an impetuous charge on the position which it held. It resumed its march, crossed the Chickahominy and James, and ar- rived in front of Petersburg on the 16th; and before daylight on the next day the 48th and the 36th Massachusetts crossed a marsh, drove in the enemy's line, captured four pieces of artillery, fifteen hundred stand of arms and six hundred prisoners. The position thus secured was not repossessed by the enemy. Lieuten- ant Colonel Henry Pleasants, as early as the 21st of June, con- ceived the project of excavating a mine from this point and by an explosion destroying a fort near to them and opening the enemy's lines. His plan was laid before his superiors and approved by them, and on the 25th the work was commenced. Space will not permit a detail of the excavation, charging and explosion of this mine. The work was done by the men of the 48th, and with such secrecy was it carried on that many of those in the immediate vicinity were for a long time ignorant of the fact that it was in progress. Difficulties were encountered that would have been considered by many insuperable under the circum- stances, but they were overcome by the skill and perseverance of Colonel Pleasants and the indomitable energy of the men of the regiment. On the 30th of July the mine was exploded, opening a crater 200 feet long, 50 feet wide and 25 feet deep, completely destroying the fort under which was excavated. The fruits of all this labor and skill were lost by the fatal action of a general officer. The regiment was only engaged in picket duty for some time after the explosion of the mine. On the 30th of September it participated in the battle of Poplar Spring Church, where it maintained its accustomed coolness, though its lines were three times broken by frightened Union troops. It lost in the action two killed, seven wounded and forty-four prisoners. It was again slightly engaged on the 27th of October. During the month of October Colonel Sigfried and Major Bosbyshell were mustered out on the expiration of their terms of service. Lieutenant-Colonel Pleasants was made colonel, Captain George W. Gowen lieutenant- colonel, and Captain Isaac F. Brannen major. When, in December, Colonel Pleasants was mustered out Lieutenant-Colonel Gowen was promoted to the colonelcy, and Major Brannen was made lieutenant-colonel. In the early part of December, in conjunction with other troops, the 48th occupied Fort Sedgwick, otherwise known as Fort Hell. Here it was almost daily shelled. On the 2nd of April it left this fort and moved to the assault on Fort Mahone, where the gallant Colonel Gowen was killed. On his death the regiment wavered, but it was rallied by Lieutenant-Colonel Brannen and the works were carried and held. In this action the regiment lost ten killed, fifty-six wounded and twenty-four missing. After the death of Colonel Gowen Lieutenant-Colonel Brannen became colonel, Captain Jones lieutenant-colonel and quartermaster Wagner major. On the 3d of April the 48th with the rest of the line occu- pied Petersburg. It was afterward engaged in guard duty, and remained at the front till the surrender of Johnston, after which it was mustered out and returned to Pottsville, where it arrived July 20th, 1865.
