ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FIRST REGIMENT. A large portion of Company I of this regiment was recruited in Schuylkill county. It was a nine months' regiment. It went to Washington in November, 1862, and at once entered on the duty of patrolling a region infested with guerillas and inhabited by traitors. Here it necessarily acquired a discipline that served it in many trying hours. During its term of service the men experienced greater hardships than fell to the lot of many oth- ers. At the battle of Gettysburg the regiment fought desperately and exhibited a coolness and courage rarely equaled. It lost in this fight two officers and sixty-six men killed, twelve officers and one hundred and eighty-seven men wounded, and one hundred missing. The conduct of the regiment in this battle was very highly commended. In Company I of this regiment were the following: Officers.-Captain, Wm.L. Gray. First lieutenant, H.H. Mer- kle; second, C.P. Potts. Sergeants-John Cohoon, Charles Barto- lett, Joseph Kantner, Thomas Morgan. Corporals-Elias Bartolett, John Buchanan, Jacob R. Haertler, Frank W. Berkheiser, John Hendricks.

Of this regiment Company H, consisting of 93 men (subsequent- ly reinforced by sixty-one more), was recruited in Schuylkill county. The regiment reached Washington late in November, 1862, and was soon ordered to the front. It was engaged in the ordi- nary duty of cavalry till the battle of Chancellorsville, where it did important service and was highly complimented for its coolness. It was again engaged at Gettsyburg, and in the cam- paign following it was very active. Space will not permit of even a catalogue of the actions in which this gallant regiment was engaged and of the other important services which it ren- dered. A detachment was with General Kilpatrick in his raid on Richmond, and the regiment participated in the brilliant cam- paigns of Sheridan, and a history of its doings would necessitate almost a history of those campaigns.

It afterward received three new companies, and thus reinforced was several times en- gaged. It also suffered many losses while at work in the trench- es near the enemy's lines. Sixty-seven members of this regiment died in the prison at Andersonville, some at Salisbury and Flor- ence, and many wounded prisoners in Petersburg.
