-INTRODUCTORY
-
-
-I have undertaken to write a history of the Forty-eighth Regiment,
-Massachusetts Volunteers, in the Civil War in diary form from the
-commencement to the close of the service. Undoubtedly much more might
-have been written giving many interesting particulars concerning the
-different companies and incidents relating to individual members of
-those companies, but I have thought best to write a modest, true and
-valuable presentation of the main features of the services rendered by
-the regiment to the Government. It is not an easy task to write such a
-history as will please everybody. I hope my efforts will be reasonably
-and charitably considered by my comrades.

-FORTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT M. V. M.
-
-
-Few men in the North previous to April 12, 1861, thought that the men
-of the South would be so rash as to precipitate a war between the two
-sections, and when on that day the news flashed over the wires that the
-Southern fire-eaters had fired upon Fort Sumter, and that the national
-ensign had been pulled down, a great wave of horror and indignation
-swept over the land. A call for 75,000 men for three months’ service
-was issued by President Lincoln on the fifteenth day of April, 1861.
-
-Many persons who considered themselves wise, pronounced the number too
-great, and to most people it did seem to be a vast army--three times
-greater than the whole regular army previous to that time. But little
-actual fighting was done by the regiments furnished under this call,
-but subsequently other calls were made for volunteers to serve for
-three years or during the war.
-
-On August 4, 1862, President Lincoln issued orders for a draft of
-300,000 men for nine months’ service, but leave was granted to Governor
-Andrew to fill the quota of Massachusetts by volunteers, and it
-was in answer to this call that the men who later became the 48th
-Massachusetts Infantry were recruited. It was the intention (and great
-efforts were made by the gentlemen interested in its formation) to
-make this an exclusively Essex County regiment, but the exigencies of
-the war made it imperative that all regiments in process of formation
-should be immediately sent to the front, and for this reason several
-partially formed regiments were consolidated, and sent forward.
-
-The regiments sent from Massachusetts under this call were designated
-as follows:--
-
-3d, Col. Silas Richmond; 4th, Col. Henry Walker; 5th, Col. George H.
-Pierson; 6th, Col. Albert Follansbee; 8th, Col. Frederick J. Coffin;
-42d, Col. Isaac S. Burrill; 43d, Col. Charles S. Holbrook; 44th,
-Col. Francis L. Lee; 45th, Col. Charles R. Codman; 46th, Col. George
-Bowler; 47th, Col. Lucius B. Marsh; 48th, Col. Eben F. Stone; 49th,
-Col. William F. Bartlett; 50th, Col. Carlos P. Messer; 51st, Col.
-Augustus B. R. Sprague; 52d, Col. Halbert S. Greenleaf; 53d, Col. John
-W. Kimball, and the 11th Battery, Capt. Edward J. Jones, which was the
-only battery of nine months’ men raised in the Commonwealth.
-
-Of these regiments, the 3d, 5th, 6th, 8th, 43d, 44th, 45th, 46th, and
-51st, served their time on the Eastern coast; the 4th, 42d, 47th,
-48th, 49th, 50th, 52d, and 53d served in the Army of the Gulf, on the
-Mississippi River; the 11th Battery served in the Army of the Potomac.
-
-During the month of September, 1862, the men being recruited for the
-Essex County regiment began to rendezvous in “Camp Lander,” Wenham,
-Mass., and the Hon. Eben F. Stone, a prominent lawyer of Newburyport,
-was appointed “Commandant of Camp.”
-
-Barracks had been provided for two or more regiments, wells sunk, and
-every arrangement made for the comfort of the men, several partially
-formed companies of which came into camp during the month and were
-mustered into the U. S. service as soon as they were recruited to a
-minimum number.
-
-Not much of special importance occurred to disturb the regular routine
-of camp life while here, the days being spent in actively drilling and
-becoming acquainted with the duties of a soldier; but occasionally
-some little break would be made in the monotony of camp life; it
-seems that there had grown up a feeling of jealousy among some of
-the officers of another regiment in the camp, because Mr. Stone
-had been appointed Commandant of Camp from civil life, and without
-previous military training, when there were other officers in camp
-who had had such training in the Volunteer Militia, and on October
-24 the dissatisfaction culminated in an assault upon Capt. Stone’s
-headquarters with bricks and other missiles, and for a time matters
-assumed rather a warlike aspect, but finally settled down with but very
-little bloodshed.
-
-The quota of Massachusetts under this call was 19,090 men. The great
-numbers already in the field and the fact that the last previous call
-of July 2, for 300,000 men for three years’ service had not been
-entirely filled, made it more difficult to secure these additional men
-but the officers worked with a will, and soon no doubt was felt that
-the object would be attained, and the call promptly answered. The first
-company to secure the requisite number of recruits was the company
-from Newburyport under command of Capt. Stone, which was mustered
-September 16, and from that time forward companies were mustered as
-they obtained the requisite number of men, until about November 1,
-when there were about 750 men in camp, distributed in eight different
-companies.
-
-On the day previous to Thanksgiving Day the several companies were
-furloughed to go home to spend Thanksgiving, to report again in camp
-Saturday morning; only one company reported in accordance with orders,
-and as no other company put in an appearance, the Captain gave his men
-leave to return home, but to report again Monday morning, which they
-did, as did the other companies, only to feel a little chagrined to
-find that Adjt. Gen. Schouler, with a part of his staff, had visited
-the camp on Sunday, and was very angry to find the camp deserted by all
-but one Lieutenant and just enough men for camp guard. His remarks were
-reported to have been very forcible, succinct and pithy, the air was
-said to have been lurid.
-
-He said, “By God! I’ll send this regiment South or to Hell!” and the
-men concluded that they hadn’t much preference as to the two locations.
-As a compromise between, the regiment was ordered to move to Camp
-Meigs, at Readville, Mass., forthwith; but expecting to be sent to one
-of the aforementioned places later on.
-
-December 4, the regiment broke camp at Wenham and left for Camp Meigs.
-While marching through Boston at the intersection of Washington
-and Boylston Streets, the two companies from Lawrence, commanded
-respectively by Capts. Colby and Rollins left, being transferred to
-the 4th Regiment which had been recruiting at Lakeville, Mass., thus
-filling up that regiment, and the unorganized 55th Irish Regiment,
-which had been also recruiting at Lakeville was brought to Readville,
-and merged with the remaining six companies from Wenham, which
-completed the organization of this regiment, thus disposing of all
-expectation of an Essex County regiment.
-
-All the officers of the Wenham companies petitioned the Governor to
-allow the Lawrence companies to remain as formerly connected. They were
-a fine body of men and officers, and, being in the same camp together
-so long, a strong attachment had sprung up between the different
-companies; but the request was denied. The men and officers in the
-Irish regiment were also much dissatisfied, and there were a great many
-desertions, which (it was said) were encouraged by their officers;
-a large number of the latter resigned and others were summarily
-discharged. They had volunteered with the understanding that they were
-to form an Irish regiment, and they were very indignant that that
-arrangement was not carried out.
-
-The accession of these new men having given the regiment the necessary
-number of men, on December 6 an election for field officers was held,
-and the regiment became the 48th Regiment of Massachusetts Infantry.
-
-Capt. Eben F. Stone of Newburyport was elected Colonel, Mr. James
-O’Brien of Charlestown was elected Lieutenant-Colonel, and Capt. George
-Wheatland of Salem was elected Major.
-
-The companies were designated as follows:--Co. A, from Newburyport and
-vicinity; Co. B, from West Newbury and vicinity; Co. C, from Salisbury
-and vicinity; Co. D, from Newbury and vicinity; Co. E, from Salem and
-vicinity; Co. F, at large; Co. G, at large; Co. H, from Lowell; Co. I,
-at large; Co. K, at large.
-
-The line officers were as follows:--Co. A, Capt. Woodward, Lieuts.
-Lawrie and Morrison; Co. B, Capt. Stanwood, Lieuts. Rollins and
-Merrill; Co. C, Capt. Pettengill, Lieuts. Currier and Schoff; Co. D,
-Capt. Noyes, Lieuts. Lord and Wilson; Co. E, Capt. Howes, Lieuts.
-Sanders and Lee; Co. F, Capt. Sherman, Lieuts. Noyes and Burnett;
-Co. G, Captain (vacant), Lieuts. Rudderham and O’Brien; Co. H, Capt.
-Rogers, Lieuts. Frawley and Maginness; Co. I, Capt. McGuire, Lieuts.
-Smith and Reade; Co. K, Capt. Todd, Lieuts. Clark and Bellen.

-December 22. Capt. McGuire of Co. I was discharged and on the 26th
-Lieut. Smith was promoted to fill the vacancy. This evening Edward
-Galligher of Co. H was shot dead by Lieut. Lord of Co. D, Provost
-Marshal, while drunk and disorderly, resisting arrest and assaulting
-the Marshal.
-
-The regiment remained in Camp Meigs until December 27 actively drilling
-and the raw recruits getting whipped into shape for active duty in the
-field, but this morning orders were received to break camp and leave
-for New York and the South (or the other place previously alluded
-to) and the regiment left at an hour’s notice, proceeding by rail to
-Groton, Conn., where they went on board the Sound steamer for New
-York arriving there at an early hour in the morning of the 28th and
-going at once on board the “Constellation,” an old sailing vessel,
-just arrived from Europe with a load of immigrants. It had not been
-properly cleansed and was very foul and dirty; but it is a soldier’s
-duty to bear with all sorts of inconveniences, and we soon learned to
-accept them without an undue amount of grumbling. There was no chance
-for a fire on board except in the first cabin, consequently the line
-officers, who occupied the second cabin, and the enlisted men who were
-quartered between decks, suffered considerably with the cold, but we
-were consoled with the thought that if we were destined for either
-of the places threatened by Gen. Schouler we should not be likely to
-grumble on account of cold weather.
-
-Friday, January 2, got under way at 12.30 P. M., being towed out by tug
-“Rattler,” which cast off and left us at 4.15, taking ashore a large
-mail for friends left at home.
-
-January 8 we arrived off the mouth of Chesapeake Bay with little of
-special importance transpiring. Pilot came on board at 9.30 A. M. and
-we passed up the bay where we found many of the fleet composing the
-“Banks Expedition” of which we now find the 48th is a part, and came
-to anchor just below and near Fortress Monroe where we remained till
-January 15, when under sailing orders the tug hitched on again and we
-sailed away South at 2.30 P. M. in a gale of wind. The voyage South
-lasted until the 30th day of January during which the deadly ship fever
-(the surgeons call it “Purpura”) broke out on board and several of our
-men died from its effects and received a soldier’s burial at sea.
-
-It is a sad sight to see the poor fellows launched into the deep dark
-waves, while their comrades stand nigh with anxious tearful faces.
-The fever increasing rapidly the men all came upon deck, the hatches
-battened down and the ship thoroughly fumigated.
-
-The following letter is self-explanatory:
-
- On board Ship “Constellation,”
- in Gulf of Mexico,
- January 24, 1863.
-
- My dear Madam:--I have sad news to communicate. Your son is no more
- on this earth. He was taken ill last Wednesday, and, in less than
- twenty-four hours, he was a corpse. He died at four o’clock P. M.,
- on Thursday and was buried at sunset in the Gulf Stream off coast of
- Florida, Latitude 25, Longitude 20 west.
-
- Let me assure you that everything possible was done for him, by his
- comrades and our good surgeon, Dr. Hurd, to save him from ravages
- of ship fever, but all our efforts were in vain. The light of his
- youthful countenance has gone out forever.
-
- What can I say to you, his good mother, who gave her only son an
- offering upon the altar of our common country?
-
- A fond mother will desire the sad details, his last acts and words. An
- hour before he died, I told him the doctor feared he could not live.
- He seemed to be fully aware of his condition, and, turning his head
- toward me he said, “Tell mother I should rather have died fighting the
- battles of my country, but God’s will be done.” Very soon he drew his
- blanket over him and calmly sank into the arms of death, like one “who
- wraps the drapery of his couch about him and lies down to pleasant
- dreams.”
-
- His last thoughts were of his mother and he died lamenting only his
- inability to do more for his country.
-
- He was a mere boy in age and looks but he had the judgment of an older
- patriot.
-
- There are many creeds which will tell you that your son has not gone
- to happiness or Heaven. He lived an honest life, but died according to
- those creeds “unconverted.”
-
- “The upright, honest-hearted man,
- Who strives to do the best he can,
- Need never fear the Church’s ban
- Or Hell’s damnation;
- For God will need no special plan,
- For His salvation.”
-
- He died full of faith and hope, with a belief that he had done his
- whole duty to his country and his God. And I believe, in the language
- of the Mayor of our goodly city, “He was a soldier in a good cause,
- and at the command of the Supreme Governor, he has laid down his arms
- and gone up higher. Watchworn and weary, he has laid his armor off and
- rests in Heaven. The everlasting gates of fame have lifted up their
- heads and he has passed through to imperishable renown. The portals of
- history have been thrown wide open and he has marched in a hero.”
-
- Think then of your darling boy, not as dead but as having gone over to
- the majority in Heaven.
-
- Permit me, my dear madam, to mingle my tears in sympathy with yours in
- this hour of your great affliction. May God bless and comfort you, I
- am,
-
- Sincerely your friend,
- EDGAR J. SHERMAN, Captain.
-
-
-Captain Sherman, after returning home, was met by the clergyman who
-officiated at the funeral of the young soldier, who said, “Captain, I
-read your letter at the funeral, and I do not think there was a dry
-eye in the audience.” “But,” said the Captain, “did you not regard the
-poetry as heretical?” “You were fully justified,” said the clergyman,
-“in writing anything you could to comfort that poor heart-broken
-mother. But who knows that he died unconverted? Were not his last
-words, ‘God’s will be done?’”
-
-In passing Cape Hatteras we experienced a fierce storm, but the old
-ship floundered safely along through the boiling sea with but little
-serious damage. The violent motion of the ship and the corresponding
-and sympathetic motion of our stomachs reminded us forcibly of the old
-bass aria in Haydn’s Oratorio of “The Creation,” “Rolling in foaming
-billows uplifted roars the boisterous sea.” Except these and a few
-minor incidents the voyage was uneventful.
-
-The vacancy in Captain’s office in Co. G was filled on January 15 by
-appointment of Lieut. Schoff to that company as Captain.
-
-On looking at the map of the United States we observe that the State of
-Louisiana lies on both sides of the Mississippi River and that the
-States of Arkansas and Mississippi lay on the right and left banks of
-that great stream, 500 miles of whose lower course was thus controlled
-during the first year of the Civil War by those three States unitedly
-inhabited by hardly as many white people as the city of New York.
-

-
-Port Hudson, La., After Surrender, July 8, 1863.]
-
-[Illustration: CEMETERY BATTERY,
-
-Baton Rouge, La., Looking Toward Port Hudson.]
-
-If we observe then the course drained by that river and its
-tributaries, commencing with Missouri on its right bank and Kentucky
-on its left bank, we find it to consist of eight or nine large States,
-large portions of three or four others, and several large Territories,
-in all a country as large as Europe, as fine as any under the sun,
-holding at the commencement of the war more people than all the
-revolted States and destined to become one of the most populous and
-powerful regions on the face of the globe.
-
-If any at the opening of the war supposed that those powerful States,
-comprising a great and energetic population, would ever consent to a
-peace that would put the lower course of that great national outlet to
-the sea in the hands of a foreign power far weaker than themselves,
-they were blind indeed to the lessons of history.
-
-The people of Kentucky alone before they were constituted a State gave
-formal notice to the Federal Government that if the United States did
-not conquer Louisiana they would conquer it themselves. In the words
-of a distinguished citizen of that martial State: “The mouths of the
-Mississippi belong by the gift of God to the inhabitants of its great
-valley. Nothing but irresistible force can disinherit them.”
-
-Akin to this was the feeling of the men of the Northwest at the
-outbreak of the Civil War. With them the opening of the Mississippi was
-an absorbing passion and they entered on that enterprise with alacrity
-and with a grim determination not to cease from their efforts until
-that great river which forms a part of the life and very existence of
-the West should be repossessed, and the insulted ensign of the Republic
-planted on the last battlements of the Rebellion.
-
-By the Summer of 1863, after many a bloody fight on the river and on
-the land, they had reached Vicksburg, and Grant had drawn his lines of
-investment around that stronghold. Meantime their brethren of the East
-had ascended the river from its mouth and had taken possession of all
-the rebel defences on the lower Mississippi. Subsequently Farragut,
-being away on the Gulf coast, the rebels seized the opportunity to
-fortify and garrison Port Hudson, in Louisiana. There remained then at
-the opening of the Summer of ’63 these two strongholds, Vicksburg and
-Port Hudson, the retention of which was necessary to the Confederates
-if they would maintain their hold on the Mississippi.
-
-Both parties to the struggle realized the importance of these
-positions. Jefferson Davis, while on a visit to Mississippi to inspect
-the defences of Vicksburg, spoke as follows in a speech at Jackson
-before the Mississippi Legislature: “Vicksburg and Port Hudson are
-the real points of attack. Every effort will be made to capture these
-places with the object of forcing the navigation of the Mississippi
-and severing the eastern from the western portion of the Confederacy.
-Let all then who have at heart the welfare and safety of the country
-go without delay to Vicksburg and Port Hudson. Let them go for thirty
-or sixty or ninety days. Let them assist in preserving the Mississippi
-River, that great artery of our country, and thus conduce more than in
-any other way to the perpetuation of the Confederacy and the success of
-our cause.”
-
-Most people probably have a tolerably clear idea of Grant’s campaign
-against Vicksburg. As the history of the 48th Regiment is inseparably
-connected with the siege and capture of Port Hudson, it is proper that
-at this point some description of that place and its defences should be
-given.
-
-Port Hudson is situated on a bend on the eastern side of the
-Mississippi about twenty-two miles north of Baton Rouge, and 147 miles
-from New Orleans. It is 300 miles below Vicksburg. The bluff rising
-abruptly some forty feet above the surface of the river was covered
-with fortifications for a space of nearly four miles, constructed
-upon the most scientific principles of military art and armed with
-the heaviest and most approved guns which England could furnish the
-Confederates.
-
-The river as it approaches the bend suddenly narrows and the current
-striking the west bank is thrown across with great velocity and carries
-the channel almost directly under the precipitous cliffs. Any vessel
-attempting the passage would be compelled to run the gauntlet of a
-plunging fire from the batteries which commanded the river for several
-miles above and below. Thus it will be seen that on the river side the
-position was so fortified by nature and art that it was practically
-impregnable.
-
-On the land side it was scarcely less so. There it was protected by a
-high parapet extending some seven or eight miles in a semi-circle from
-river to river, in front of which was a ditch from ten to twelve feet
-wide and six feet deep. Along nearly the whole line in front of this
-ditch and extending from half a mile to a mile from it was formerly a
-heavy growth of timber. This had all been cut down; so that in every
-direction the fallen tops of trees interlaced, trunks blocked up every
-passage and brambles were growing over the whole. Moreover, the space
-where this forest had stood was cut up in every direction by gullies
-and ravines, all containing more or less fallen timber. Under favorable
-circumstances, that is with a good supply of ammunition and provisions,
-and a garrison of 20,000 men, Port Hudson could have resisted any force
-that could have been brought against it.
-
-The task of taking this stronghold fell to the lot of the Army of the
-Gulf, consisting mainly of the 19th Army Corps, to which the 48th M. V.
-M. was attached.
-
-Two o’clock in the morning of Jan. 30, 1863. The old ship
-Constellation, bearing the 48th Regiment, is lying off the southwest
-pass of the Mississippi River and is throwing up rockets as a signal
-for a pilot. Presently a tug comes steaming out from the river and as
-daylight is breaking we leave the muddy waters of the gulf behind us,
-not, however, without the assistance of a second powerful tug to take
-us over the bar, and enter the still muddier waters of the Mississippi.
-For some miles the river presents no objects of interest. Low marshy
-shores covered with coarse sedges, fit haunts for alligators and other
-venomous reptiles--in all about as uninviting a place as can well
-be imagined. Towards noon we reach the famous Forts Jackson and St.
-Philip, one of which gives us a salute as we pass.
-
-They were occupied at this time by the 26th Massachusetts Regiment
-who cheered us lustily as we passed. At 9 o’clock A. M., January 31,
-arrived at quarantine where the ship was boarded by the health officer,
-who discovered no reason to detain us, although so very recently having
-been scourged by the ship fever, and he declared us “all right” and
-gave us a clean bill.
-
-The only evidence of the desperate fight of the year before when
-Farragut ran the gauntlet of these forts are the remnants of several
-rebel gunboats which were destroyed during the fight and driven as
-high as possible on the banks of the river, and the Union sloop-of-war
-Varuna, which lay on the bottom of this river with only the tops of
-her masts out of water. After passing the forts, as we approach New
-Orleans the country becomes somewhat more interesting. We pass some
-fine plantations with stately mansions, large sugar houses and long
-rows of cabins, the habitations of the blacks. Much of the way we
-run close to the bank and as we turn bend after bend in the river we
-are tantalized by the sight of orange groves laden with the luscious
-fruit--so near and yet so far. We see very few white men. Most of
-them have doubtless gone into the rebel army. Now and then a planter
-standing on the bank gazes at us sullenly as we pass. It seemed evident
-that they were not over-pleased to see us. Our only welcome was from
-the negroes. Their shouts from the levee, accompanied by laughter and
-frantic gesticulations, bespoke their joy. One white man, bolder than
-his fellows, shouted the inquiry: “What regiment is that?” and being
-informed he imparted the cheerful information that we had come all the
-way from Massachusetts to find our graves--a prophecy which proved true
-of many a boy on board that ship.
-
-February 1, Sunday, at 3 A. M., we reached New Orleans and anchored
-opposite the central part of the city, where we remained during the
-next day. Looking at New Orleans at that time, it was hard to realize
-that just previous to the opening of the war it had the largest export
-trade of any city in the world. Its stores closed, its fine business
-blocks deserted, its levee which had once groaned with the burden
-of a great commerce empty and desolate, the great metropolis of the
-Southwest lying under the guns of our ships of war was a mute but vivid
-witness of the folly of rebellion.
-
-Leaving New Orleans on the 3rd at 11.45 A. M. we proceeded up the
-river. Above New Orleans the desolation became more marked. War had
-written his autograph over the whole face of the country. Crops of
-sugar cane which should have yielded thousands of pounds of sugar were
-still standing in February, when they should have been gathered months
-before. No hope of saving them, for the frost had been at work upon
-them. Moreover, the planter’s negroes had left him, his horses had been
-stolen, his mules and teams confiscated by the Government. Defiant
-amid the general wreck, the planters were said to be bitterly cursing
-President Lincoln and praying for the destruction of the Union armies.
-
-The village of Donaldson, the first place of importance above New
-Orleans, presented a sorry sight. Its inhabitants had had the bad habit
-of firing on our weaker steamers as they passed up and down the river.
-Farragut bore the outrage until forbearance ceased to be a virtue, and
-then assured the people that if the outrage were again repeated he
-would shell the town. It was again committed and Farragut, true to his
-word, bombarded the place until only about half of the original town
-was left.
-
-Approaching Baton Rouge, 125 miles above New Orleans, on the morning of
-the 4th, the first thing that attracted our attention was the ruined
-Capitol of the State, grim and ghastly in the morning light. This fine
-building was fired when our forces took possession of the town, by whom
-will never be known. The rebels charged the Unionists with doing the
-deed when they entered the place, and the Unionists as stoutly asserted
-that it was the last act of the rebels before leaving. The magnificent
-library, fine furniture and works of art were all destroyed. Only
-Powers’ statue of Washington, the work of Northern genius, was rescued
-from the flames.
-
-Our steamer drew up to the levee at Baton Rouge just as the sweet notes
-of the reveille were sounding from camp to camp, bugles echoing bugles,
-fifes warbling, drums beating, while here and there from a distant camp
-came the rich swell of a full band.
-
-It was with the greatest delight that we disembarked, for we had
-already learned what it was to suffer. Confined for six weeks on an old
-hulk for which the Government was paying more every week than the ship
-was worth, we had not escaped the ravages of disease. The transport on
-which we had made the trip from New York had formerly been an emigrant
-ship. The seeds of disease were lurking in her timbers. While we were
-on the Atlantic a fatal disease--a spotted fever--broke out, and in a
-few days several of our boys had fallen victims and were consigned to a
-watery grave.
-
-And now once again on terra firma our spirits rose accordingly, and
-there was a general feeling of hopefulness and cheer in our ranks as
-we marched over the bluff to a plain about two miles from the village,
-where we pitched our tents on a spot which was to be our home for
-several weeks. Our camping ground had once been occupied by the rebels
-for the same purpose. It was a part of the field on which the battle
-of the previous year had been fought. The trees in the vicinity still
-showed the effects of the shot and fragments of shell, the bones of
-animals and soldiers’ graves showed that our troops had gained no
-bloodless victory.
-
-Picket duty, guard duty, and the routine of drill was our life for
-several weeks. The battlefield with its terrors had thus far kept aloof
-but we were brought face to face with a chapter of army life hardly
-less sad.
-
-Though Baton Rouge and the country northward is much more healthful
-than the fever level below, still there is no place in all that region
-where one can lead the exposed life of a soldier with impunity. Many
-of our most rugged men yielded to the fatal miasm with which the night
-air is laden, and those who had never known a day’s sickness in their
-lives went daily at the surgeon’s call to get their dose of quinine.
-Death came and mustered out many. Funerals were of daily occurrence
-and sometimes it seemed of almost hourly occurrence. The notes of the
-dead march, the sad, sad wailing of the fife, the mournful throb of
-the muffled drum, the march with downcast eyes and arms reversed, the
-parting volley above the grave, and then the return march, quick time,
-arms at the right shoulder, fifes warbling like birds in springtime,
-and drums beating merrily--these sights and sounds were far too common.
-
-Our sojourn at Baton Rouge was a period of waiting expectancy. We were
-learning that to wait is one of the chief duties of a soldier as it is
-indeed one of the most irksome.
-
-On February 5 the regiment received a few old “Sibley” tents, a lot
-which had been left behind by some departing regiment. They were musty
-old things, but some of the boys went into them until our new ones,
-which we are entitled to, should arrive. Today the 48th was brigaded
-with the 116th New York, the 21st Maine and the 49th Massachusetts,
-constituting the 1st Brigade, 1st Division, 19th Army Corps, with
-Maj.-Gen. C. C. Augur--a regular army officer--in command of the
-Division; Col. E. P. Chapin of the 116th New York (Senior Colonel) in
-command of the Brigade, and Maj.-Gen. N. P. Banks in command of the
-Department, which was designated as the “Department of the Gulf,” and
-on February 6 muskets and ammunition were dealt out and we then for the
-first time considered ourselves full-fledged soldiers of “Uncle Sam.”
-
-On March 11 there was a grand review of the troops then at Baton
-Rouge. The sight of 20,000 well-drilled troops, infantry, cavalry,
-and artillery is no ordinary spectacle. Banks on his coal-black
-stallion with his Division and Brigade Commanders made a distinguished
-appearance, but the writer recalls that his interest centered chiefly
-in Farragut who with the Captains of the fleet had been invited to
-witness the parade.
-
-At length on March 12 at 9 P. M. an order came to have twenty-four
-hours cooked rations and forty rounds of ammunition and be ready to
-march at a moment’s notice. At daybreak the next morning we marched
-to the levee at Baton Rouge where we embarked on board a steamer and
-sailed slowly up the river. Another regiment accompanied us and two
-companies of cavalry. We had started on a reconnaissance. We were
-convoyed by the famous gunboat Essex which kept a half a mile ahead of
-us and occasionally threw a shell into the woods along the shore. We
-disembarked a few miles below Port Hudson under cover of the guns of
-the Essex. The road leading to the bluff a distance of a quarter of a
-mile from the river, swollen by the spring freshets, was entirely under
-water, in some places reaching nearly to the waists of the shorter men.
-Wading through this the order of march was formed upon the bluff. The
-cavalry went ahead, filling the road and stretching out over the fields
-on either side. We approached within a few miles of the Confederate
-works and drove in their pickets who left their posts so rapidly as
-to leave their cooking utensils lying near the smouldering embers of
-the fire where they had cooked their morning meal. Presently we came
-upon a company of guerillas who fled to the woods, all but one young
-fellow who was captured. At about noon, hot, tired and thirsty, we
-halted for a brief rest at a plantation some sixteen miles from Baton
-Rouge and I doubt if at any time or place during the great conflict
-the confiscation law was more vigorously and thoroughly enforced.
-Within a few minutes after our arrival the feathered inhabitants of
-the plantation had nothing further to say. Our march from this place
-to Baton Rouge was a rapid one. We were within a short distance of a
-comparatively large and powerful army of the enemy and it was quite
-within the bounds of possibility that a force might be sent out to
-fall upon us before we could reach our camp. But the reconnaissance
-on the whole was a success. The road was clear of rebels and about
-five miles from Baton Rouge where the Montecino Bayou crosses the
-road we met the division of General Cuvier Grover fresh from their
-camp at Baton Rouge. No one who witnessed those regiments of infantry
-and cavalry and the fine batteries accompanying them as they crossed
-the pontoon bridge and came springing up the hillside, and with their
-gun-barrels glistening in the rays of the setting sun disappeared from
-view on the winding road ahead will ever lose the impression there
-gained.
-
-We reached our camp at Baton Rouge at about 9 o’clock. Most of us were
-footsore and all were weary, and creeping into our tents we were just
-settling down to a good night’s rest when down from headquarters came
-an order to march at 3 the next morning. So in the early morning we
-fell in each heavily laden with knapsack, a full supply of cartridges
-and two days’ rations, and started on the road over which we had come
-the previous day. The morning was cool, the road in good order, trees
-just budding out and festooned with vines and moss. On the whole we
-enjoyed the scenery of the Southern forest road and the fresh morning
-air. Neither the heavy burdens nor the blistered feet caused by
-yesterday’s weary march could wholly repress our enthusiasm, ignorant
-as we were of campaign life and eager for a change. But as we got out
-into the open country and old Sol rising higher and higher got in his
-work upon us our burdens seemed heavier and heavier every moment and
-every step was an agony. With rout step and arms at will, on, on we
-plodded through clouds of dust. No wonder that some of the boys sank
-by the side of the road exhausted, only to come up late in the evening
-after the regiment had bivouacked. But the longest day and the weariest
-march must have an end and as the shades of night were falling we
-halted at a corn field where, after a hasty meal, we bivouacked for the
-night. With knapsacks for pillows and the starry heavens for canopy
-we lay along the ridges of the corn field and tired Nature’s sweet
-restorer, balmy sleep, soon came to our relief.
-
-The writer remembers being hastily awakened after a few hours sleep by
-the comrade by his side who said, “Look up over the trees!” and there
-we could easily trace the course of the shells from Farragut’s mortar
-boats and could hear their dull, explosive thud as they fell inside the
-works at Port Hudson. But even that display of fireworks interested
-us but for a moment. Soon we were again sleeping soundly unconscious
-of the tumult on the river. Shortly after midnight the cry, “fall in”
-passed along the lines and slinging knapsacks and shouldering rifles
-we passed out of the field past the long, long lines of sleeping men
-and were again on the march, this time away from Port Hudson. What
-this movement meant we could not comprehend. Had disaster befallen the
-fleet or our troops at the front? Were we beginning the retreat? All
-was doubt and uncertainty. We stumbled along in the thick darkness
-through the dense woods, the silence of which was broken only by an
-occasional heavy booming sound from the river. The black darkness of
-the night grew heavier and heavier. It was at that darkest hour just
-before the dawn when all at once the entire heavens were aglow. An
-instant flash of lights as bright as the brightest noonday penetrated
-the inmost recesses of the forest and for a moment sharply outlined
-every soldier’s form--then came a sound that shook the very earth,
-that thundered and reverberated along the entire horizon--then all was
-still and dark. “What is it?” was the question on every lip. Not until
-morning had fully dawned did we learn that it was the dying cry of the
-old warship Mississippi as she sank to her rest beneath the waters of
-the river whence she had received her name.
-
-The events of that memorable night form one of the most stirring
-chapters of the history of the war. Farragut having learned of our loss
-of the steamer Queen of the West between Vicksburg and Port Hudson
-determined to run past the batteries at the latter place and recover
-command of the river above. So in his stout flagship, the Hartford,
-lashed side by side with the Albatross he led the perilous adventure
-arriving abreast of the rebel works at about midnight. The rebels were
-on the watch and immediately the flames of a vast bonfire in front of
-the heaviest batteries lighting up the entire breadth of the river
-shot up into the sky and the next instant the earth trembled to the
-roar of all the rebel batteries, whereupon our mortar boats below
-began firing thirteen-inch shell, and four frigates and five gunboats
-moved up into the fight. As our ships came past within pistol shot
-of the batteries grape and canister swept their decks with murderous
-discharges, the crescent shape of the river enabling them to rake each
-vessel as it approached and again as it receded. By 1 o’clock the fight
-was virtually over, the Hartford and the Albatross having passed while
-most of their consorts had failed and dropped down to their anchorage
-below, when a fresh blaze told of a heavy loss. The Mississippi had run
-aground directly abreast of the heaviest and most central battery where
-her helpless plight was soon discovered and she at once became a target
-for them all. Here Capt. Melancthon Smith fought her nearly half an
-hour until she was completely riddled, when he ordered her set on fire
-and abandoned, and she was burning ashore until she was so lightened
-that she floated, when she drifted down the river a blazing ruin,
-exploding several miles below when the fire had reached her magazine.
-
-The morning after this memorable night found the 48th guarding a bridge
-on a road parallel to the main road from Baton Rouge to Port Hudson. We
-had fuel prepared ready in an emergency to burn the bridge as it was
-feared the enemy’s cavalry might attempt to make a dash on the flank of
-our army. No cavalry appeared, however, and we were soon withdrawn and
-went into camp on the banks of the Montecino Bayou. And now the troops
-came pouring back from Port Hudson. They had advanced to the outer
-works, fired a few shots and retired. Not realizing that the movement
-was but a feint intended to deceive the enemy in the hope that they
-might withdraw some of their heavy guns from the bluff and thus make
-easier the passage of the fleet, Bank’s soldiers showered curses on him
-and his tactics. They grew calmer when he issued a proclamation saying
-that the object of the expedition had been successfully accomplished.
-A week later all the troops were withdrawn to Baton Rouge. Banks
-with the larger part of the army left for an expedition in Western
-Louisiana and our Division was left to garrison Baton Rouge. We took
-up again the daily routine of picket duty, guard duty, and drill,
-varied occasionally by a night alarm from the picket line when we
-would hastily fall in in the darkness and prepare to meet an enemy
-that did not come. Such was our life for two months. Its monotony was
-broken on the 2d of May when Grierson with his troopers dusty, haggard
-and wayworn, rode into Baton Rouge. The story of their coming and of
-their incredible adventures flew like wild fire through the camps and
-the excitement was at a high pitch. Nothing like it had been known
-before in the war. Seventeen hundred men had ridden through the entire
-length of the State of Mississippi from the northeast to the southwest
-corner, encountering every conceivable danger and hardship. Thousands
-of Confederates had been trying to find and intercept them. But with
-matchless skill Grierson had escaped them by circuits, outwitted them
-by ruses, and attacked and routed them with far inferior numbers. In
-this raid of 600 miles through a country swarming with foes they had
-cut two railroads, burned nine bridges, destroyed two locomotives
-and nearly 200 cars, broken up three rebel camps, destroyed more
-than $4,000,000 worth of Confederate government property, captured
-and paroled 1,000 prisoners and brought in with them 1,200 captured
-horses. Hundreds of dark-hued patriots accompanied them into Baton
-Rouge mounted on mules and horses they had borrowed from their late
-masters. Some idea of the pluck and endurance of the Westerners may be
-obtained from the fact that during the twenty-eight hours preceding
-their arrival at Baton Rouge they had marched more than sixty miles,
-had four fights and crossed the Comite River where it was necessary to
-swim their horses.
-
-As the month of May wore away boat load after boat load of troops
-arrived at Baton Rouge and it soon became evident that the long-looked
-for movement against Port Hudson was at hand. The 48th received
-marching orders on the 11th and on the 18th was again on the familiar
-road to Port Hudson, starting on an expedition from which many in that
-column were never to return.
-
-That night we camped sixteen miles from Baton Rouge where we remained
-until the 21st, on which day we received our baptism of fire. The
-regiment got into line at an early hour and took up line of march for
-Port Hudson. We had not moved a mile before the booming of guns ahead
-announced that our advance had found the enemy and in all probability
-we would soon be engaged.
-
-On arriving at the intersection of the Bayou Sara and Port Hudson roads
-near the “Plains Store,” so called, located at that point, the advance
-was checked by shots from a rebel battery planted at the “store.” Col.
-Dudley’s Brigade was in the advance and received the first shock; some
-of his troops skirmished in front while others made a flank movement,
-and the rebels were routed after quite a sharp engagement.
-
-Lieut. Tucker of the Massachusetts 49th, acting on Col. Chapin’s staff,
-lost a leg by cannon shot. After the battle was supposed to be over,
-and the rebels had precipitately retired, the Division (excepting the
-48th) made preparations to bivouac in the field at the right and left
-of the Bayou Sara road near the “Plains Store.” A section of the 5th U.
-S. Regular Battery was sent a short distance up the Port Hudson road
-and the 48th Massachusetts was ordered to its support.

-
-Col. Stone was informed that the Illinois cavalry were picketing on his
-front and right, and the 174th New York infantry on his left, and he
-was cautioned very strictly to be careful and not shoot those pickets
-by mistake.
-
-The Staff Officer who conducted the 48th to its position, led them
-(and also the battery), entirely outside the pickets, so that unknown
-to Col. Stone the 48th was in a very exposed position, with neither
-front nor flanks protected. Cos. H and K were detached from the right
-wing and sent to the rear to guard the baggage train, leaving only
-three companies, B, E and D, in that wing; these three companies of
-the right wing, under Lieut.-Col. O’Brien, filed into the woods on the
-right hand side of the road; and the left wing, Cos. F, G, I, A and C,
-with Col. Stone, into the woods on the left-hand side of the road, and
-the battery was placed in the road between the two wings which were
-entirely separated from each other. Scarcely had the regiment taken
-its position when the rebels commenced shelling us and our battery
-smartly returned their fire. While this was transpiring a force of
-rebel infantry passed around the left flank, and to the rear of the
-left wing, and as soon as the artillery fire ceased, fell upon them
-while totally unprepared. The suddenness of the attack threw them into
-confusion and they gave way and retreated to the rear. The advance of
-the rebels was met by a countercharge of the 116th New York and the
-rebels were routed.
-
-A portion of the rebel forces crossed the road and came upon the
-left flank and rear of the right wing. Lieut.-Col. O’Brien attempted
-to change front by throwing back his left, but a portion of the men
-became confused, and Col. O’Brien ordered a retreat. This order was
-not heard by Capt. Stanwood. Seeing some of his men about to fall back
-in disorder he ordered them to stand fast, which they did, and with
-a portion of Cos. E and D fell back about 100 yards and took a new
-position, rallying on the colors.
-
-General Augur was at the rear and near the Plains Store and witnessed
-the occurrence: The battery guns went to the rear before the right wing
-left its position. Col. Stone lost both his horses, captured. At night
-Co. B went on picket.
-
-The 48th lost two killed, several wounded and prisoners in the fight
-today.
-
-May 22. Co. B was relieved from picket by Co. F. Calvin A. Farrington
-of Co. B was missing at roll call, having been taken prisoner.
-Lieut.-Col. O’Brien and Captain Stanwood were requested to come to
-Maj.-Gen. Augur’s headquarters, which they did, and were complimented
-very highly for the part sustained by the right wing in yesterday’s
-battle; and also some of the officers and men of the left wing who
-rallied on the colors. The numbers in the right wing were so few that
-the General supposed at the time that there was but one company. He
-said the regiment did as well as any but veteran troops would do under
-the circumstances; that they had by mistake been placed in the wrong
-position and were very badly posted on either side of the road. He
-kindly criticised Lieut.-Col. O’Brien and told him that he made a
-great mistake by trying to make a wheel to the rear in the face of an
-aggressive enemy, his men being under fire for the first time; none but
-seasoned troops could do that safely. He said the Lieutenant-Colonel
-should have ordered the right of his command forward and met the
-enemy, and taken the aggressive, and he had confidence, from what he
-witnessed of their steadiness, that the men would have supported him.
-He then complimented the men for coolness under fire and said no doubt
-the regiment would feel chagrined at the outcome of their first battle,
-but no doubt an early opportunity would be given them to retrieve
-themselves. He also said that if the regiment should be called upon
-for volunteers for an assaulting party, in a future assault (which he
-thought would be the case very soon) he directed Captain Stanwood of
-Co. B and his company not to feel as if called upon, but to remain
-with the main body of the regiment, that he would not be expected to
-volunteer in any forlorn hope or assaulting party. His 1st Lieut.
-(Rollins) detailed to Col. Chapin’s staff. Lieut. Merrill was acting
-Quartermaster of the regiment for some considerable time.
-
-May 23. Alarm in the night--long roll beaten--regiment turned out under
-arms, but the alarm proved to be false. 48th ordered far down to the
-rear of the 1st Battery fight on the Bayou Sara road.
-
-Co. E’s men proved themselves good foragers, bringing in quantities of
-poultry and pigs.
-
-May 24. Regiment ordered to march to the front with one day’s rations
-at 6 o’clock A. M. Co. B was detached and sent forward skirmishing into
-a narrow strip of woods; the mud and water were very deep and almost
-impenetrable. They advanced, however, with great difficulty through the
-woods to within about 300 yards of the rebel works and there remained
-through the day, lying in the edge of the woods, and witnessed the
-artillery battle between the opposing batteries in our immediate front
-till nearly dark when they were relieved by the Massachusetts 49th.
-
-May 25. There was a smart fight near night upon our right in Gen.
-Grover’s Division and some rebs attempted to cut their way out but
-failed and were taken prisoners. The regiment ordered to sleep on their
-arms tonight.
-
-May 26. One false alarm during the night. Regiment got into line
-promptly, but as promptly dismissed. Orders received from headquarters
-for volunteers for a “Forlorn Hope” to charge in advance of the brigade
-line, and storm the enemy’s works tomorrow morning.
-
-There were more than the required number came forward from the brigade
-(the call was for 200 men from the brigade) and ninety-two men were
-accepted from the 48th Massachusetts. The following are the names
-of those accepted from the 48th: Lieut.-Col. O’Brien; Co. A, Capt.
-Woodward, Lieut. Morrison, Privates E. C. Varina, N. F. Peabody, Isaac
-F. Porter, Henry M. Cross; Co. C, Lieut. Emery; Co. D, Private J. F.
-Kinsman; Co. E, Privates Geo. Wagner, John Lewis, H. Mansfield, Henry
-Krone, J. F. Stoddard; Co. F, Lieut. Noyes, Privates Austin Smith,
-George Bocock, P. Noonan, A. Mullins, John McDougal, J. P. Blanchard,
-D. C. Morrill, E. J. Oakes; Co. G, Capt. Schoff; Co. H, Capt. Rogers,
-Lieut. Frawley, Lieut. McGinness, Sergts. Thomas McLaughlin, John W.
-Leyes, Richard Ward, Corporals Timothy Lehiffe, Robert Leach, James
-Gildee, Daniel Desmond, Privates Michael Farley, Morrissey A. Hearn,
-Joseph Burgess, John Boyle, John Bradley, Michael Bates, Patrick
-Cullins, Patrick Dumey, Wm. Finnigan, James Gilogby, Matthew R.
-Gleason, John Kelley, James Leach, Dennis Leon, Dennis Noonan, James
-Walsley, Thomas Scully, Peter McCauley, Patrick Manus, William A.
-Murphy, Patrick Murray, James O’Connell, Wm. Powers, James Quigley,
-Patrick Riley, James Spear, Edward Slyne, William Tagget, Hugh Willey;
-Co. I, Capt. Smith, Lieut. Ricker, Lieut. Bassett; Co. K, Lieut.
-Harding, Privates Daniel Crowley, Ed. Ryan, J. Gallagher, James Rand,
-J. Keenan.
-
-May 27. Before the men had had their breakfast orders were received
-to assault the enemy’s works. Immediately we advanced quietly to
-the extreme edge of the woods where we laid on our arms till about
-2 o’clock in the afternoon, the “Forlorn Hope” under command of
-Lieut.-Col. O’Brien in the advance. At that hour and before the main
-line had fairly formed for the assault we received a volley from the
-enemy’s guns and at the same time the zip of the rebel bullets was
-getting unpleasantly frequent. General Augur, who stood very near,
-seeing the men dodge their heads at the disagreeable sound said, “No
-use boys to dodge them after you hear them,” a fact we soon learned
-by experience. The “Forlorn Hope” had commenced the charge, O’Brien
-saying, “Come boys! pick up your bundles and follow me,” and General
-Augur gave the command, “Forward the Brigade,” and the whole brigade
-advanced into the “slashings.” The whole forest of large trees and
-small had been felled and the limbs lopped off and left upon the
-ground, which was entirely covered with the stumps, logs and brush; and
-through this almost impenetrable Chevaux de Frise, the men attempted
-to charge, and over which a perfect storm of shell, canister and
-rifle bullets flew like hail; no formation could be maintained over
-such grounds and in a few moments it was every one for himself. The
-“Forlorn Hope” and the main line became inextricably mixed, and
-advanced together, charged nearly up to the rebel works, but the fire
-was so severe that human endurance was not equal to the task set for
-us, and the men were compelled to drop behind stumps and logs, and
-take advantage of any shelter to be found, and acted as sharpshooters,
-hoping that reinforcements might be sent up and continue the assault.
-The 2d Louisiana from Dudley’s brigade came up the road later, but too
-late to be of any service, and the assault was abandoned, and the men
-dropped back individually to their old line as best they could. Col.
-Chapin, 116th New York, commanding the brigade, Lieut.-Col. O’Brien,
-48th Massachusetts, commanding the “Forlorn Hope,” and many others were
-killed; Capt. Rogers, Co. H, Capt. Smith, Co. I, Lieuts. Morrison,
-Frawley, Maginnis, Ricker, Bassett and Harding, and many others
-wounded, and a large number of the rank and file of the regiment were
-killed or more or less seriously wounded; Lieut. Ricker suffered the
-amputation of his leg. As we came back from the front, we had our first
-sight of the dreadful effects of a battle and burial of the dead in one
-line, about twenty dead bodies lying at the side of the road, and the
-long trench all ready to receive them. Poor fellows, with no coffin and
-no shroud but the blue uniform in which they had shed their blood for
-the flag they loved.
-
-May 28. Ambulances and stretchers under flags of truce have been
-going all night, bringing in the bodies of the dead and wounded. Col.
-Chapin’s body has been sent to New Orleans. Lieut.-Col. O’Brien’s body
-has just been found in the most advanced line. When his clothes were
-opened the bullet which penetrated his body fell out, it having passed
-entirely through him and flattened up against a steel vest which he
-wore into the battle. He recklessly exposed himself and lost his life
-by so doing, seeking to retrieve himself from Gen. Augur’s kindly
-criticism of his mistake of the 21st at Plains Store.
-
-May 29. The regiment laid on their arms all night in expectation of
-an attack by the garrison, but the night passed away and all has been
-quiet in camp today. Several heavy thunder showers in the afternoon.
-Orders received to fall in with all our traps and go to the rear; mud
-very deep and the march tedious.
-
-The 2d Louisiana has been attached to our brigade and Col. Charles J.
-Paine of that regiment, being senior Colonel, takes command of the
-brigade. He is a Massachusetts man and is said to be a fine officer.
-
-May 30. Cannonading going on all the night and day from the batteries
-and from the fleet. Marched back to our old camp in front.
-
-June 1. A Lieutenant of sharpshooters wounded during the early morning.
-Gen. Banks was much chagrined at the failure of the first assault.
-Regiment marched back to the rear after dark to support batteries. Laid
-in cornfield with cornstalks for bedding and pillow.
-
-June 2. Regiment got into line at 4 o’clock and marched back to old
-camp ground. Co. E detailed to go to the rear to guard the baggage
-train to relieve Co. G.
-
-June 3. Smart cannonading all night. Gen. Banks and Admiral Farragut
-give the rebs no peace day or night.
-
-June 4. Regiment marched back to the old camp in front. Four men of Co.
-B reported from Baton Rouge.
-
-June 5. Officers ordered to report at Brigade Headquarters to confer
-about Lieutenant-Colonelcy. The laws of Massachusetts state explicitly
-that the vacancy shall be filled by the votes of the line officers of
-the regiment.
-
-June 6. Rumored preparations for another assault. Col. Stone sent for
-Capt. Stanwood and requested him to act as Lieutenant-Colonel till the
-vacancy could be legally filled, saying that an election would soon be
-ordered.
-
-June 7. False alarm in the night. Man with nightmare disturbed camp
-by upsetting a stack of guns and bringing out the whole regiment.
-Inspection at 9 o’clock A. M.
-
-June 8. Harrison W. Dearborn, Co. B, died at Baton Rouge. Immense lots
-of cotton bales being hauled to the front for breastworks.
-
-June 9. Smart firing during the night. Large fire to be seen in Port
-Hudson.
-
-June 10. Some heavy cannonading during the night. Chaplain came up from
-Baton Rouge with mail today. Quartermaster came up from Baton Rouge
-with new teams.
-
-June 11. Many of the men are suffering badly from rheumatism, malaria
-and kindred ailments, acquired from lying in the rifle pits, which
-are much of the time half full of water. Nothing more has been said
-regarding an election of Lieutenant-Colonel, and there is much
-speculation among the officers and men as to the reason.
-
-June 12. An election for Lieutenant-Colonel was ordered by Col. Stone
-and held today and Capt. Stanwood was unanimously chosen.
-
-June 13. The regiment received orders at 10 o’clock A. M. to report to
-Gen. Augur’s headquarters at once. On reporting to Gen. Augur we were
-ordered to march away to the right to report to Gen. Arnold, chief of
-artillery. Reported at about 11 o’clock after a very quick march, in
-which many of the men suffered terribly, it being in the very heat
-of the day and with but one halt on the road; we must have marched
-at least seven or eight miles. Stacked arms and took entrenching
-tools--which in plain English means picks and shovels and axes. Some
-of the companies were detailed to clear out a big ravine which led
-up in the direction of the rebel breastworks and just in the rear of
-where it was intended to plant a battery, while others were busied in
-throwing up the breastworks, carrying up ammunition and other duties.
-Worked till dark and without supper; made preparations to bivouac, when
-we were ordered to take up our march again to our old camp at the rear
-near the Plains Store, whence we had started in the morning. Arrived in
-camp late in the evening, and after enjoying (?) coffee and hardtack
-laid our tired bones on the ground with the hope of gaining some rest;
-but our hopes were blasted. We had got scarcely settled to rest when
-the following order was received directly from Gen. Banks’ headquarters:
-
- “Headquarters, Department of the Gulf.
- “Before Port Hudson, June 13, 1863, 8.45 P. M.
-
- “Maj.-Gen. Augur will order the 48th Massachusetts, Col. Stone, to
- proceed at once to the headquarters of the 2d Division and report for
- temporary duty to Brig.-Gen. William Dwight, commanding the Division.
- A general assault upon the works of the enemy at Port Hudson will be
- made tomorrow morning, 14th instant.”
-
-The regiment got into line, being nearly 500 strong (or weak), but so
-used up that many fell out during the march through the woods, which
-occupied nearly all the night--the guide sent with us losing the
-way--and it was nearly morning when Col. Stone reported to Gen. Dwight.
-It was intended that we should occupy the extreme left on the river
-bank and make our charge at that point; but after reconnoitering the
-ground we were moved further to the right, to near the Mount Pleasant
-road, and bivouacked at the side of the road.
-
-June 14. A dense fog prevailing and terribly hot. Col. Stone reported
-to Gen. Dwight at a very early hour, before light, with 175 men and
-four Captains present for duty, the rest of the men having become
-exhausted by the work of yesterday and the night march through the
-woods, having started from Plains Store yesterday morning with nearly
-500 men.
-
-A tremendous artillery fire for an hour commenced at about 3 o’clock,
-both from land forces and the fleet. The men present in the regiment
-were consolidated into four companies, and Capt. Todd volunteered to
-take command of the right company, consisting of remnants of Cos. B and
-E.
-
-The bombardment continued fiercely for an hour, during which time the
-columns were being formed for the assault in the rear of a piece of
-woods; the formation was in column by companies and Capt. Todd led the
-advance. We in the 48th could see the effect of the rebel fire on the
-brigade in advance of us, as it turned the corner of the woods into
-the Mount Pleasant road. Quickly the order came down to “Forward the
-Brigade” (we were attached for the day to the brigade commanded by Col.
-Benedict). When we came out from the shelter of the woods the fire of
-the enemy was terrible, but the column moved forward firmly; the rebel
-line of breastworks was clearly defined before us, with the “Citadel”
-frowning in the front. As we advanced the march from quick time soon
-became double quick, and finally a mad rush, passing over dead and
-wounded in the road. The air fairly hissed with bullets and shell, the
-groans of the wounded mingled with the cheers and yells of the charging
-troops, the shouts of the officers and also their imprecations as some
-poor fellows, losing their presence of mind, would try to dodge the
-flying missiles as they passed to bury themselves with a sickening
-“thud” in some other doomed comrade’s body; it seemed as if pandemonium
-was let loose, and when we overtook and passed over the prostrate
-bodies of the red clothed fascine bearers, who had started in advance
-of the main column and who, unable to face the leaden storm, had
-dropped their burdens and taken shelter behind them, they were greeted
-with cries of derision, which quickly changed to cries of dismay when
-we came into the vortex and saw the ground swept as it were by a
-whirlwind, and every man sought shelter in ravines, behind stumps, logs
-and any object which could afford shelter.
-
-This ended Gen. Dwight’s movement. But it had advanced our lines so
-that we held possession of a rough hill which commanded the “Citadel,”
-which had been the objective point of our assault, and which was the
-most formidable point in the rebel works. The men held themselves
-well and showed that former experiences had had a good effect. Capt.
-Todd was seriously wounded in the mouth; Adjt. Ogden was slightly
-wounded; Darius Nelson of Co. B was killed and others both killed and
-wounded. The Lieutenant-Colonel was thrown down by the explosion of a
-shell, which happily did not wound him, but his right leg was serious
-paralyzed and he laid on the field all day exposed to the pitiless
-fire of the rebel sharpshooters and the scarcely less endurable rays
-of the burning Louisiana sun, until night came and the Ambulance Corps
-and brought relief. The scenes on the field were heart-rending, and
-the sufferings of the wounded appealed so strongly to the sympathy of
-their more fortunate comrades that lives were lost and others risked
-attempting to succor these unfortunate men.
-
-The movement was much criticized by some of the officers, especially
-the cannonade which preceded the assault, as it is said that by it
-the rebs were apprised that an assault was to be made and they were
-prepared to repel it, and the day which had opened so auspiciously
-ended in gloom. Details of stretcher-bearers plying their melancholy
-duty carried the wounded to the hospitals, and the dead swiftly to the
-long trenches.
-
-June 15. Regiment was relieved from support of battery and marched
-leisurely back to our old camp near the front center. The men were
-almost entirely exhausted, but it was impossible to excuse them from
-duty, as all are in the same condition.
-
-June 16. Received orders during the day calling for volunteers for
-another storming party of 1000 men.
-
-June 17. Passed the night in the rifle pits. There was a very heavy
-rain early in the morning, filling the pits and making the situation
-very disagreeable. Order in regard to detail of one officer and
-twenty-five men for storming party countermanded, as more than the
-required number had volunteered.
-
-June 18. Regiment supporting an Indiana battery, at the front, early in
-the morning having moved in to the rifle pits.
-
-June 20. Sharpshooters are making things lively. There are rumors
-floating through the camps that Vicksburg has fallen. Regiment ordered
-to move into the rifle pits at dark.
-
-June 21. Regiment occupied the rifle pits last night. The 2d Vermont
-Battery kept up a kind of intermittent firing. Regiment relieved at
-night and returned to the rear, bivouacking in the woods.
-
-June 22. Election held in Co. B for vacant offices. Lieut. Merrill
-was elected Captain, receiving 16 votes to 15 for Lieut. Rollins; 1st
-Sergt. James S. Walsh was elected Second Lieutenant.
-
-June 23. There has been considerable discussion of the vexing question
-of termination of service. There are very few officers left with the
-regiment, and the duty is very hard in consequence.
-
-June 24. Lieut. Maginnis (who was wounded in the assault of the 27th of
-May) died of his wounds today.
-
-June 26. Orders received to take the regiment to the rear and bivouac
-near Brigade Headquarters, and just at night ordered to relieve the 2d
-Louisiana in the advance rifle pits.
-
-June 27. Col. Stone on the sick list. After being relieved from
-the rifle pits ordered to go to the left and support the 49th
-Massachusetts and 21st Maine, which we did, bivouacking at 11 o’clock
-P. M.
-
-June 29. Heavy cannonading all night. An attempt was made a little to
-our left and front to capture an outpost of ours, but it failed; the
-rebs were repulsed, and it is said with a loss of 90 prisoners; cannot
-vouch for the truth of the rumor. Regiment ordered into the rifle pits
-to support Holcomb’s 2d Vermont Battery.
-
-June 30. Were in the rifle pits near Holcomb’s Battery all night.
-There were sounds of a smart skirmish down on the extreme left, which
-continued about an hour. Col. Stone left today for Baton Rouge, sick.
-
-July 1. Regiment bivouacking near Brigade Headquarters. Rebs made a
-raid into Springfield Landing, stampeding the guards and destroying a
-considerable amount of government stores.
-
-July 2. Regiment has laid in the woods near Brigade Headquarters this
-forenoon. Near noon orders came to fall in to repel an attack from
-the rebs in the rear who had raided Springfield Landing and after
-destroying the government stores there were now on the march for
-Port Hudson. The “march to Port Hudson” proved to be a hoax, and the
-regiment was soon dismissed and at night went into the front rifle pits.
-
-July 3. Regiment occupied the rifle pits, supporting Holcomb’s Battery.
-Rebel sharpshooters very active. Gen. Grover visited the battery this
-afternoon. He looks anxious and careworn. Relieved from rifle pits by
-the 116th New York.
-
-July 4. National salute fired at sunrise with shotted guns. This is not
-our usual way of celebrating our National birthday. Regiment received
-orders to get into line prepared to make another assault. The “Forlorn
-Hope” was already in position at the front. The regiment stood in
-line many long and weary hours, anxiously awaiting the signal gun to
-commence the assault. For some reason the assault was not made, and
-after a tedious wait we were relieved and allowed to return to camp.
-Another salute with shotted guns was fired at noon by Nims’ Battery. A
-member of Co. E, who was captured from us on May 21st at Plains Store,
-escaped from Port Hudson today and came back to camp.
-
-July 5. Gen. Banks has just passed up to the front with a flag of
-truce. Ordered into the rifle pits at night.
-
-July 6. Passed the night in the rifle pits. The regiment is being
-rapidly decimated by hard duty and exposure to this terrible hot
-weather.
-
-July 7. Two rebels came into headquarters from Port Hudson, and their
-accounts show that the garrison can hold out but a very short time.
-
-Official news has been received from Gen. Grant that Vicksburg
-surrendered on the 4th. A gunboat came down river from that place
-early this morning bringing the news. Communication with the army was
-for some reason broken and it was quite late in the day before the
-message was delivered to Gen. Banks. It was at once communicated to the
-troops in the trenches; from man to man, from company to company, from
-regiment to regiment the word passed, and the cheers from the men rang
-out and the long silenced bands filled the forests with the strains
-of the “Star Spangled Banner,” “America,” “Yankee Doodle” and other
-patriotic music. Received orders for the 48th to occupy the rifle pits
-and support Holcomb’s 2d Vermont Battery tonight.
-
-Before going on duty the Lieutenant-Colonel visited Gen. Augur’s
-headquarters, by his request, and was particularly instructed and
-cautioned as to his duty. He said, “You are going into the most
-important position on the line, and as the ranking officer on the
-brigade picket line you will be expected to exercise the greatest
-vigilance. The information we have leads us to expect that the enemy
-will offer to surrender or make an attempt to break out through our
-thin lines, and it is expected that you will be prepared for either or
-any emergency. Double your outer picket line, keep your men well in
-hand and allow none to sleep. If any attempt is made to break out it
-must be prevented at all hazards till reinforcements reach you, which
-you may feel assured will be pushed forward to your assistance at the
-first alarm, and you must check the attack at the hazard of your lives;
-two companies from another regiment will be ordered into the rifle pits
-to strengthen your line.” Regiment went into the rifle pits at about 9
-o’clock in the evening.
-
-July 8. The inevitable has happened! Port Hudson has fallen! Regiment
-laid quietly in rifle pits till shortly after 12 o’clock, midnight,
-the notes of a bugle were heard in our front sounding “a parley,” and
-a few seconds later an officer with a small escort approached, bearing
-a lantern fixed to a long pole, with a white handkerchief tied beneath
-it to serve as a flag of truce. At the outpost the flag was halted and
-its object ascertained, which was the delivery of a dispatch to Gen.
-Banks from Gen. Gardner, in command of the Confederate forces in Port
-Hudson, which was immediately dispatched to Gen. Banks’ headquarters
-by messenger. The dispatch contained a request for official assurance
-as to the truth of the report that Vicksburg had surrendered. If
-true, Gardner asked for a cessation of hostilities, with a view to
-consider terms of surrender of Port Hudson, and soon a blast upon a
-bugle brought back the little party of Confederates with the lantern
-swinging from the pole and the conference culminated in an agreement to
-surrender, and that a commission be appointed from each side to agree
-upon terms.
-
-[Illustration: LANDING AT BATON ROUGE, LA.,
-
-Looking Up River.]
-
-Orders were immediately issued to cease firing all along the line and
-also from the fleet. Brig.-Gen. C. P. Stone, Col. Birge and Brig.-Gen.
-Dwight were designated by Gen. Banks as such commission. At 9 o’clock
-this morning the commissioners from both armies met just in front of
-our position, and nearly on the spot where Lieut.-Col. O’Brien had
-formed his men while waiting for the word on that eventful 27th of
-May. On the Confederate side the commissioners were Col. Miles, Col.
-Steedman, 1st Alabama, and Lieut.-Col. Smith, Chief of Artillery.
-Gen. Andrew was designated to receive the surrender, which it was
-finally decided should take place tomorrow morning, the 9th. The men
-of the 48th can feel with considerable satisfaction that through the
-carrying out of Col. Paine’s plan (to crowd the hard work of the siege
-onto the nine months regiments) they have been placed in a position
-where they can claim the honor of receiving the flag of truce which
-surrendered this great stronghold after so many weary and exciting
-weeks of fighting, digging and suffering. While the negotiations have
-been going on officers from some of the rebel regiments came over into
-our lines and fraternized with us as socially as though no state of war
-ever existed between the two sections of the country, and one officer
-expressed the wish that the war could now close and the North and South
-combine and whip out England; his reason being “that England had not
-recognized the independence of the Confederacy after the Trent affair.”
-
-July 9. The 48th was in line promptly at 4.30 this morning, in
-accordance with orders, but was obliged to wait until nearly 10
-o’clock before commencing to march into Port Hudson, en route for
-Donaldsonville, at which hour the 48th with the Massachusetts 49th
-and 21st Maine took up the line of march to the landing and embarked
-on board steamer “Louisiana Belle” late in the afternoon after the
-ceremony of surrender, which was very short. The rebels were drawn
-up in line with Gen. Gardner at their head, the right resting near
-the railroad station. When the command “ground arms” was given every
-man placed his musket upon the ground. It was a very affecting sight,
-and there was no man in the victorious army who did not experience
-a feeling of pity go out to the brave men who had been compelled to
-surrender after so long and so brilliant defense. Gen. Gardner tendered
-his sword to Gen. Andrews who declined to receive it. The rebel flag
-was hauled down from the flagstaff where it so defiantly floated
-through the siege. A salute was fired by the naval battery, the stars
-and stripes run up. The garrison filed off as prisoners of war, and all
-was over.
-
-More than 6,000 rebels surrendered. The soldiers were paroled but
-the officers were held as prisoners of war. Twenty pieces of heavy
-artillery and more than 30 pieces of field artillery were captured.
-The loss of the 19th army corps during the siege has been nearly
-5,000 men. No correct account has been made of the rebel loss, but
-an approximate calculation will give it as nearly 1,000, which,
-considering that their fighting has been entirely behind breastworks,
-is very heavy. Port Hudson is a very strong place and would have cost
-us many more men to have taken it by storm. As we steamed away from
-the landing and gazed at the bluffs and remembered the long weeks of
-waiting in front of its land batteries we could but take a long drawn
-sigh of relief. We shall no doubt soon be sent home. Home! Can any
-outside the army imagine what this word means to us who have lain so
-many weary weeks in the swamps of Louisiana, watching the lines of the
-enemy with the eyes of hungry wolves, dying by hundreds, by bullet, and
-shell, and disease. It means friends, comfort, life itself, in exchange
-for misery, squalor, dirt, a dog’s life, and death, and an unknown
-grave.
-
-July 10. Reached Donaldsonville at 9 o’clock A. M. While on the passage
-down, and we were at breakfast, the steamer was fired on from the
-shore, but happily no one was hit. The shots were returned from the
-boat, but with what results of course we could not know, but we were
-not further molested.
-
-After landing we made a reconnaissance till nearly dark when the
-regiment bivouacked for the night near the levee. The rebels have
-evidently drawn away their forces from the river and we shall probably
-have to seek them further inland.
-
-July 11. False alarm in the night. Regiment fell in with arms, but were
-soon dismissed.
-
-July 12. A steamer came up from New Orleans which shows that the
-blockade is raised, and the Mississippi river throughout its whole
-length is clear for the first time in two whole years.
-
-July 13. Col. Paine’s brigade received orders while at breakfast to
-fall in and march to support Col. Dudley. Marched out several miles
-and halted to make preparations for dinner, there being no indications
-of being called into action very soon. Some were fortunate enough to
-dine early, their meal being very frugal, and hard tack and coffee
-constituted their principal fare, and a little green corn from the
-fields. We were startled by the rattle of musketry in our immediate
-front, and we were at once ordered into line and found that Dudley
-was engaged with the enemy and had been gradually driving them back
-until he came upon their main line, when he was in turn being slowly
-and obstinately forced back. Our brigade was now ordered to the front
-at “double quick” on the road parallel to the bayou, and soon ordered
-to file to the right into a little green plantation road or path, and
-halted, our left resting on the bayou road. In our front was a rail
-fence with a deep ditch at the side of the road; beyond the fence an
-open field of about 125 yards extent and beyond that an immense corn
-field. By the waving of the corn tops we could trace the movements of
-Dudley’s men and could see that they were slowly retreating and coming
-back gradually towards our line. The regiment was ordered to occupy
-the ditch at the side of the road. Very soon Dudley’s men made their
-appearance out of the corn, loading and firing as they fell slowly
-back. A more soldierly appearance could not have been made than was
-made by the regiment in our immediate front (the 161st New York. Col.
-Harrower,) as they retired, slowly, towards our line, turning and firing
-as they retreated. They came over the fence in our front and passed over
-us to our rear, where they laid down. The rebels followed them closely
-to the edge of the cornfield, and attempted to cross the open field
-in our front, but were immediately sent to the “right about” in some
-confusion, by the fire from the trusty rifles in the hands of the 48th
-boys who laid close to the ground, firing under the bottom rail in the
-fence, and the range being low the shots were very effective.
-
-A short time previous, Col. Paine had taken the 49th out of their place
-in line, which was on our immediate right, leaving a gap in the brigade
-line which the 48th was directed to cover with an oblique fire, thus
-giving us double ground to cover. Col. Paine before leaving with the
-49th came to Lieut.-Col. Stanwood and directed him to hold our ground
-at all hazards till his return.
-
-The rebels tried several times to charge across the open field in our
-front, but were as often driven back by the steady fire from our men in
-the ditch.
-
-While this was transpiring, the rebels had driven back the brigade on
-the opposite side of the bayou until their fire enfiladed the left
-of our brigade, and at the same time were rapidly flanking the whole
-force on our right which began to fall back, and in a short time we
-were left alone upon the field. A staff officer from Col. Dudley rode
-up and ordered the Lieutenant-Colonel to retire the regiment. His
-authority was not recognized, Lieut.-Col. Stanwood having received
-orders from our own brigade commander (Col. Paine) to hold the ground
-at all hazards until his return, which order he held himself bound to
-obey. Soon on looking to the right and left not a blue-coated soldier
-could be seen, and away to the right the rebel could be seen passing
-rapidly to the rear. On the opposite side of the bayou the fighting was
-going on far to our rear while from our front in the corn desultory
-shots came, viciously striking the fence rails above our heads. Feeling
-that in this case “discretion was the better part of valor” and not
-caring to be a second Casabianca, he directed the men to pass the word
-quietly down the line, without rising, and retire from their position
-as best they could, and rally in the rear on the colors.
-
-This they did, and the rebs were so close that many of the men were
-captured before they had time to retire from the ditch! The 48th lost
-in killed, wounded and missing 65 out of a total 201 men engaged.
-Lieut. Wilson, Co. D, and Lieut. Bassett, Co. I, were taken prisoners.
-Lieut. Wilson was reported as also wounded.
-
-The men after retiring from the ditch rallied in the rear, and later
-took their place in the line of the brigade in the rear and in a low
-swamp. A tremendous rain storm came up towards night flooding our camp.
-
-July 14. Our camp is located in a low swamp and is completely
-inundated. The men are all thoroughly soaked to the skin. The day has
-been spent in bringing in the dead and wounded. Among the dead is
-Edward T. Bennett of Co. B.
-
-July 15. Still in camp at Donaldsonville. Received dispatches from
-New Orleans, announcing a great victory in Pennsylvania by Gen.
-Meade’s army, on the 1st, 2d and 3d days of July. The first week
-in July has been a week of tremendous importance to the Union
-cause--Vicksburg-Port Hudson, and now this great victory of Gen. Meade’s
-at Gettysburg--three names long to be remembered in American history.
-We hear that Col. Stone has recovered his horse which was captured from
-him at the battle of Plains Store, May 21.
-
-July 16. Regiment received orders to change camp to the rear to secure
-higher ground, by which move the 48th has secured the best location
-in the brigade line. There are all sorts of rumors in regard to going
-home. Suppose that some of them may be true and expect that now that
-Port Hudson has been taken that we shall be sent home before long.
-Received word from Baton Rouge that Joseph B. Hale of Co. B died in the
-hospital there today.
-
-July 17. All prisoners taken from us on the 13th have been paroled, and
-have returned to camp today having marched from Thibodaux. They say
-that the rebs had less than a thousand men on our side of the bayou in
-the battle, and our defeat was all owing to bad generalship on the part
-of our commanding officers.
-
-July 18. Daniel F. Connell of Co. B who was taken prisoner on the 13th,
-came back to camp today, having been paroled, and walked from the rebel
-camp (which he thinks is nearly 100 miles from here) with one hardtack
-and a little corn meal for his rations during the march.
-
-He thinks there are from 10,000 to 20,000 rebels between Donaldsonville
-and Thibodaux, with considerable artillery. A continued discussion of
-the question of “going home” now principally occupies the time of the
-men.
-
-July 21. Capt. Bainbridge, a U. S. army officer, came to camp today and
-the Lieutenant-Colonel at once went before him and was mustered out as
-captain and immediately mustered in as Lieutenant-Colonel.
-
-July 22. Capt. Schoff, Lieut. Morrison with a detail of thirty-three
-men went foraging at 4.30 this morning and returned at 3 P. M. having
-gone out about nine miles and obtained a large amount of corn. The
-regiment is now nearly destitute of commissioned officers.
-
-July 23. The glorious news from Gen. Meade’s army confirmed. Gen. Lee
-entirely defeated at Gettysburg, Penn., and driven back into Virginia.
-Our friends at home have by this time heard of our victory at Port
-Hudson and will be now looking for our return. Heavy thunder showers
-today.
-
-July 24. Paymaster Maj. Palmer arrived at 7.30 o’clock A. M. and
-proceeded to pay off the regiment, which feat was accomplished at noon.
-Maj. Palmer informs us that the campaign is over and the men are being
-sent home as fast as transportation can be furnished.
-
-July 25. Alarm in the night caused by the pickets firing into some old
-horse or mule.
-
-July 26. Col. Love, 116th New York, in command of the brigade during
-Col. Paine’s absence.
-
-July 27. Very quiet in camp last night.
-
-July 29. Regiment received drums today, and resumed regular dress
-parades which have been greatly interfered with during the siege of
-Port Hudson and during the stay here in Donaldsonville.
-
-July 30. The camp here at Donaldsonville is evidently breaking up; some
-of the troops are on the move at daylight. Gen. Weitzel’s old brigade
-has marched for Thibodaux. We are still kept on the “ragged edge” all
-the time looking for orders to start for Baton Rouge and home.
-
-July 31. Orders have been received at headquarters for our removal
-to Baton Rouge, as soon as transportation can be furnished. At
-11.30 o’clock this forenoon orders were received to prepare to move
-immediately. Several steamers have come and gone but none for us as
-yet, which is very tantalizing.
-
-August 1. Steamer “Kepper” arrived and the 48th immediately went on
-board as also the 49th. Quarters were very much crowded and the men
-have suffered intensely on the hot deck during the passage up the river
-to Baton Rouge where we arrived just before dark. Disembarked with
-military precision.
-
-August 2. Glad to get to our old quarters which seems something like
-home. During the night some of the men were jubilantly celebrating
-their return and became over-boisterous. The chaplain’s tent caught
-fire from some mysterious cause and burned down. Col. Stone, although
-having left the regiment when in front of Port Hudson, and remained
-in Baton Rouge since that time on the sick list, took command of the
-regiment at once.
-
-August 3. Col. Stone decided that he is able to take command of
-the regiment. How little we anticipated when we left Baton Rouge
-in May what changes would take place before we should return in
-August--Lieut.-Col. O’Brien and so many other brave and good men gone.
-
-August 4. The Colonel has reported for duty. Orders have been received
-for an inspection of the regiment which at this time looks much like
-going home.
-
-August 5. Our old parade ground which we used when we first came
-to Baton Rouge does not look at all familiar. The 49th Regiment has
-received orders to take transportation for New Orleans at once.
-
-August 6. We are expecting every moment to get orders to start for
-home, and the delay is very vexatious.
-
-August 7. Received orders to start for home by way of the Mississippi
-river and Cairo, Ill. (and in consequence we are all feeling happy), as
-soon as transportation can be secured.
-
-August 8. The men are all busily engaged cleaning up guns and
-equipments to turn over before going home. Home! how pleasant the
-sound, when it means so much to us who have for so long a time been
-deprived of all the comforts of home.
-
-August 9. Inspection came off this morning at 7 o’clock and everything
-was found in “spick and span” condition. Notice has been received
-that the steamer is awaiting us at the landing, and we have turned in
-all ordnance and ordnance stores, surplus clothing, camp and garrison
-equipage and are now on board steamer “Sunny South” ready for the
-start.
-
-August 10. Steamer started up river at 3 o’clock this morning and
-arrived opposite Port Hudson at sunrise. Our passing of the batteries
-was much more quietly accomplished than was Commodore Farragut’s last
-March. The scenery on the Mississippi River is very monotonous and
-tame. Have passed only one little village today. Fort Adams passed at 3
-o’clock P. M. The men are suffering terribly from heat on the “burning
-deck.” At 10 P. M. arrived at Natchez. Since coming to Louisiana we
-have been using New Orleans horse car tickets and postage stamps for
-change.
-
-August 11. We left Natchez at 5 P. M. The bluffs here at Natchez are
-150 feet in height. The city is very prettily situated. Passed village of
-Washington on the left at 10.30 A. M.; Passed Gen. Taylor’s plantation
-at 11.30 A. M.; Grand Gulf at 3 P. M.--a very strong place. Passed
-wreck of Indianola at sunset. Arrived at Vicksburg soon after 11
-o’clock at night.
-
-August 12. Passed head of the celebrated Vicksburg canal at 11.15 A. M.
-Passed Millican’s Bend at 2 o’clock P. M. Steamer “Tempest” with the
-49th Massachusetts on board has passed up.
-
-August 13. Passed Napoleon Ark at the mouth of the Arkansas River about
-9 o’clock.
-
-August 14. Arrived at Helena, Ark., at 1.30 P. M. Stopped to coal till
-4 o’clock and went on shore to stretch our legs during the stay. It is
-a very strong natural fortification, and many artificial works have
-been erected in addition. Two men were drowned attempting to come on
-board.
-
-August 15. Arrived at Memphis at about 6 o’clock A. M. Left at 11.30 P. M.
-
-August 16. Steamer ran aground and stuck fast for hours; reached Gayoso
-Landing at 4 P. M.
-
-One must travel on the Mississippi River to get any idea of its
-greatness. Here we go puffing along, day after day, and night after
-night, and we wake up every morning and the same grand old river
-stretches away before us.
-
-The distances on the Mississippi River are as follows: Passes to New
-Orleans, 125 miles; New Orleans to Baton Rouge, 130; Baton Rouge to
-Port Hudson, 30; Port Hudson to Natchez, 100; Natchez to Vicksburg,
-140; Vicksburg to Memphis, 360; Memphis to Cairo, 240; total 1125
-miles.
-
-August 17. Arrived opposite Columbus, Kentucky, at 8 A. M. when the
-steamer was brought to by a shot across her bows from the Battery at
-this point. Arrived at Cairo, Ill., at 10 A. M. While stopping here
-there has been some trouble with some of the more turbulent men on
-account of their not being allowed to go on shore.
-
-August 18. At 10 o’clock A. M. commenced changing baggage from the
-steamer to the cars which occupied the time till about dark when
-the regiment went on board the cars and run out about 20 miles to a
-station called Wetaug, arriving a little before midnight and stopped
-till daylight. The delay is very tedious and vexatious. We are going
-home and trains going to the front have the right of way and so we are
-side-tracked to await their passing.
-
-August 20. Still dragging slowly along. Arrived at Indianapolis, Ind.,
-at 11 o’clock A. M. Regiment marched to the Soldiers’ Home where a
-bountiful collation was furnished by the people of the city. James H.
-Short of Co. B, who was very sick when we left Baton Rouge, was left
-here in the hospital, he not being able to travel further.
-
-August 21. Arrived at Gallion, Ohio, at 6 o’clock A. M. Could get
-nothing to eat on arrival, being at so early an hour. Reached Crestline
-at 6.30 A. M.; Cleveland at noon. Here we met with a very kind
-reception from the citizens with a good dinner; also the same repeated
-at Erie, Penn. Reached Buffalo at 9.30 P. M. and received another
-splendid reception with collation. Here we changed cars and started for
-Albany at about midnight.
-
-August 22. Arrived at Utica at 10.30 A. M. and were tendered another
-fine collation spread at the side of the track. Continued on for Albany
-where we arrived about 4 o’clock P. M.; went at once to the ferry and
-cars en route for Boston at sunset. Made good time and arrived at
-Springfield, Mass., at midnight. Here a few minutes were allowed to
-obtain lunch for which we had to pay a good round price--the first
-which has cost us a cent since leaving Cairo, and some considerable
-comment has been made that Massachusetts should be the first to ask her
-returning soldiers to pay for their rations.
-
-August 23. Arrived in Boston without further incidents at 7.30 A. M.
-Marched to the Beach Street Barracks where we were served a government
-ration (which did not compare favorably with the food served out to us
-by the citizens of the cities and towns through which we have passed
-on our way home) after which the men were furloughed till September 3,
-then to report at our old Camp Lander at Wenham to be mustered out.
-
-September 3. Regiment reported at Camp Lander, Wenham, and were
-mustered out. Casualties during the campaign: Killed and died of
-wounds, 23; wounded, 73; died of disease, 40; total, 136.
-
-Maj.-Gen. Christopher C. Augur was in command of the 1st Division, 19th
-Army Corps, to which the 48th Massachusetts was attached and served its
-whole term of service.
-
-He was born in New York, but was appointed to West Point from Michigan;
-graduated 16th in the class of 1843 (in which class Gen. Grant was the
-21st). He served in the Mexican war with credit, and at the breaking
-out of the Rebellion was given a commission of Brigadier-General of
-Volunteers Nov. 12, 1861; was in command of a Division under Gen. Banks
-in the Shenandoah Valley, and was wounded severely at Cedar Mountain,
-receiving therefor a brevet of Colonel in the Regular Army; was
-promoted to Major-General of Volunteers, Aug. 9, 1862, and assigned to
-the command of the left wing of the army before Port Hudson, retired as
-full Brigadier-General in the Regular Army in 1885.
-
-Colonel Edward P. Chapin, who commanded the 1st Brigade in Gen. Augurs
-Division, of which the 48th Massachusetts constituted a part, was
-the Colonel of the 116th New York. He was a very able and efficient
-officer, and it was expected that he would rise to advanced rank, but
-was killed in the desperate assault on Port Hudson, May 27, 1863, and
-thus the army and the country lost the services of a very promising
-officer. He was succeeded in the command of the Brigade by Col. Charles
-J. Paine of the 2d Louisiana Infantry, who remained in command during
-the remainder of the 48th’s term, and subsequently received the brevets
-of Brigadier and Major-General of Volunteers.
-
-The regiment, as finally made up, represented all classes. It contained
-recruits from the best old New England families in Essex and Middlesex,
-and from emigrants recently from foreign countries. A good example of
-the former was the late Samuel Hoar of Concord (son of the late Judge
-E. Rockwood Hoar and nephew of the late Senator George F. Hoar), who
-left college to enlist as a private soldier in Company E, and who
-served the full term, then re-entered and graduated at Harvard College.
-He subsequently became a very able lawyer and distinguished citizen. He
-died April 11th, 1904, aged 59 years.
-
-Col. Eben F. Stone was a man of high character and standing in the
-community in which he lived, and that had much to do with his selection
-to command the regiment. As time went on he failed somewhat as a
-tactician, and the regiment was at a disadvantage on this account,
-although he could have passed an excellent examination in tactics. He
-was a brave officer and well liked by the officers and soldiers of his
-regiment. Colonel Stone, after the war, made an honorable record in
-the civil service of the government. He served two years in the State
-Senate and two terms in Congress.
-
-Lieut.-Col. O’Brien was regarded as a good officer and brave to the
-degree of recklessness.
-
-Capt. Stanwood earned the promotion which he received by a unanimous
-election as Lieutenant-Colonel by able, faithful, and patriotic
-services.
-
-Dr. Yorick G. Hurd was one of the best surgeons of the Civil War. The
-death rate from sickness in our regiment was less than in any other
-in the Department, and that was due in great part to the faithful,
-conscientious, and untiring services of Dr. Hurd. He had not a lazy
-bone in his body. After the war he rendered good services in the
-military and civil service of the State. He was medical director of the
-Division on the Staff of General B. F. Butler, with rank of Colonel,
-from 1867 to 1876. He served two years in the State Senate. He did for
-many years excellent service as Master of the House of Correction and
-Superintendent of the Insane Asylum at Ipswich.
-
-Capt. Edgar J. Sherman (of the same family of Roger Sherman and General
-William T. Sherman), enlisted as a private soldier and was subsequently
-elected Captain of Company F.
-
-When the regiment advanced on Port Hudson he was in the hospital sick
-of malarial fever. Hearing of the affair of Plains Store, the Captain,
-somewhat relieved of the fever but weak and emaciated, decided to
-join the regiment. The surgeons tried to induce him to remain a while
-longer, but not succeeding in this, gave orders forbidding it. The next
-morning the Captain put on his uniform, left the hospital, and took the
-early steamer for Springfield Landing. There he was met by the surgeons
-who called him a “walking ghost,” and ordered him back to Baton Rouge.
-The Captain said he was not going on duty but only to visit the surgeon
-of his regiment and he was allowed to proceed.
-
-He was there several days, remaining with Dr. Hurd, when he learned
-that there was to be a charge on the enemy’s works the next day. He at
-once determined to go on duty. The Colonel and surgeon advised against
-it, withholding their consent, the doctor saying, “Captain, if you go
-into this fight and are not killed, your fever will come back and you
-will leave your bones in Louisiana.” Capt. Sherman made the long march
-that night, with the aid of his soldiers, and led his two companies
-which carried the colors in the charge next day. When the charge did
-not succeed and the order came to get off the field, the Captain
-finally reached the ravine on the left, and was subsequently carried on
-a stretcher to the rear. Dr. Hurd found him exhausted, with the fever
-returning, and ordered him sent at once to the hospital at Baton Rouge.
-
-[Illustration: THE IRONCLAD ESSEX.]
-
-[Illustration: WHARF BOAT NATCHEZ,
-
-At Baton Rouge, La., 1863.]
-
-Just as the Captain was being put into the ambulance he said to Dr.
-Hurd, “It is too bad about poor Captain Todd; he went down right in
-front of me and we went right on over his dead body.” “Not by a
-d---- sight!” said the Doctor. “I took an old broken French bayonet
-three inches long out of his mouth and he is all right.”
-
-Captain Sherman was seriously and dangerously ill for some time, and
-it was feared that the Doctor’s prophecy might become true,--that
-the Captain would “leave his bones in Louisiana,” but he recovered
-sufficiently to return home with the regiment.
-
-Officers and men were so much needed at the time that Captain Sherman’s
-disobedience of the order “not to leave the hospital” was condoned,
-and upon the recommendation of his superior officers, he was brevetted
-Major “for gallant and meritorious services.”
-
-Major Sherman subsequently served in the military and civil services of
-the State. In 1864, at the time of General Early’s raid on Washington,
-he raised a company for one hundred days and was elected its Captain,
-and the company became Company K of the 6th Regiment.
-
-He served as Assistant Adjutant General, with the rank of Colonel, and
-as Chief of Staff of the Division, General B. F. Butler’s, from 1867 to
-1876. He served fourteen years as District Attorney for Essex County,
-five years as Attorney General, and now a Justice of the Superior
-Court, where he has served since 1887.
-
-Capt. J. Scott Todd was an excellent officer, always faithful to every
-duty.
-
-He was wounded and disabled in the charge on June 14. The enemy were
-short of ammunition and they used broken iron. An old piece of a
-French bayonet three inches long struck him in the mouth, knocking out
-his upper and under front teeth, cutting his tongue in two, its full
-length, and finally embedded itself in the roof of his mouth. The blow
-was so severe that the Captain lay on the field stunned and unconscious
-for a long time. With assistance he finally reached the rear and the
-doctor removed the iron and he was soon in condition for duty.
-
-After the war the Captain did honorable service in the civil government
-of the State. He served two years in the State Senate. He also served
-for many years as a Trial Justice.
-
-The following is taken from Hanson’s History of the Sixth Regiment:
-
-“Company K, Capt. Edgar J. Sherman, Lawrence.
-
-“This company was a new one, raised mostly in Lawrence upon the call
-of the Governor for five thousand one hundred days men. Recruiting
-commenced on the 11th day of July, the company was filled on the 12th,
-went into camp on the 13th, was mustered into service on the 14th
-and on the 15th and 16th the men were clothed, armed and equipped
-throughout and ready to move on the 17th--just six days after the first
-movement was made.
-
-“Captain Sherman, says the Lawrence American (edited by Captain
-Merrill, who was at Port Hudson in the Fourth Regiment), under
-extraordinary difficulties, raised a company of nine months men,
-enlisting himself as a private, from which he was promoted to a
-Captaincy, and, as we personally know, no braver or more faithful
-officer has left our city. Always attentive to the needs of his men,
-and even when weak and emaciated with sickness, as we saw him at Port
-Hudson (in the 48th Massachusetts) leaving the hospital, against the
-positive prohibition of the surgeon, to lead his men in the assault. He
-was brevetted Major for ‘gallant and meritorious services.’”
-

-THE ROSTER
-
-
-
-
-PREFACE TO THE ROSTER
-
-
-The historian does not hold himself responsible for the absolute
-accuracy of the regimental roster as errors may have unavoidably crept
-in. But the roster was carefully compiled from the records kept at the
-State House and is a complete copy of such records.
-
- THE HISTORIAN.
-
-
-
-
-DESERTIONS
-
-
-The large number of desertions from some of the companies is accounted
-for by the fact that the recruits were brought to camp by agents of the
-cities who paid bounties as soon as the recruits were mustered into the
-United States service.
-
-The officers of those companies objected to accepting such recruits,
-prophesying that many of them would desert, but the objections were
-overruled and the officers were compelled to accept them.

-Creating the works from print editions not protected by U.S. copyright
-law means that no one owns a United States copyright in these works,
-so the Foundation (and you!) can copy and distribute it in the
-United States without permission and without paying copyright
-royalties. Special rules, set forth in the General Terms of Use part
-of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm
-concept and trademark. Project Gutenberg is a registered trademark,
-and may not be used if you charge for an eBook, except by following
-the terms of the trademark license, including paying royalties for use
-of the Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything for
-copies of this eBook, complying with the trademark license is very
-easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as creation
-of derivative works, reports, performances and research. Project
-Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and printed and given away--you may
-do practically ANYTHING in the United States with eBooks not protected
-by U.S. copyright law. Redistribution is subject to the trademark
-license, especially commercial redistribution.

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation

-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by

-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
