SIEGE OF CINCINNATI.

When Ohio was threatened by invasion in September, 1862, Cincinnati especially being in danger of destruction, and the Governor called for immediate help, hundreds of strong men poured forth from every county In the State. On horseback and on foot-in companies, battalions and regiments-with squirrel rifles, shotguns and bayoneted muskets-in regulation uniforms and in plain home-spun, they hurried forward to the music of the soul-stirring drum and fife, and took their places in the ranks of war. Inside of three days Cincinnati was swarming with legions of brave soldiers, and "from early dawn to dewy eve," the streets resounded to the tread of martial columns. The rebels were before the city about eight days, but it was not attacked. And soon after their withdrawal, the men who were thereafter to be known in history as "squirrel-hunters," were permitted to return to their homes

VETERANS.

In 1863, over twenty thousand soldiers, the remnants of about eighty Ohio regiments that for three years had endured the hardships of camp life, the sufferings of the march, and the horrors of many battle-fields-offered themselves anew, a willing sacrifice to their country's need, by re-enlisting in the same regiment for "three years more, or during the war."

Of these regiments, the Sixty-sixth was the first to return to the State after its re-enlistment, on the veteran furlough of thirty days, by which the Government, expressed, in a measure, its gratitude and admiration for their loyalty and patriotism. It arrived at Columbus, Ohio, on the 26th of December, 1863, and was followed in rapid succession by a stream of others.

While home their broken ranks were filled wit It new recruits, and after "a month of joys and pleasures, a day of leave-taking and tears," they again took the field, perhaps for three years, perhaps never to return.

Of the whole number of interments indicated above there are about 6,900 known and 1,500 unknown civilians, and 6,900 known, 3,200 unknown confederates. Of these latter the greater portions are buried at Woodlawn Cemetery, Elmira, N. Y., Finn's Point Cemetery, near Salem, N. J. The interments at Mexico City are mainly of those who were killed or died in that vicinity during the Mexican war, and include also such citizens of the United States as may have died in Mexico, and who under treaty provision have the right of burial therein.

From the foregoing it will appear that after making all proper deductions for civilians and confederates there are gathered in the various places mentioned, the remains of nearly 300,000 men, who at one time wore the blue during the late war, and who yielded up their lives in defense of the Government which now so graciously cares for their ashes.

RELIEF WORK AND AM SOCIETIES.

During the long weary years of the war, those who went to the field were not the only sufferers nor the only persons who devoted their services and lives to their country. The heroism displayed by the loyal women of the North as thev labored at home, in the hospitals and on the battle-field, proved that they were not unworthy their soldiers.

Of the vast amount of work done by the fortunate ones whose privilege it was to devote their means and their services to the care of the soldiers and their families, there is no record save that inscribed in the minds and hearts of a grateful and sympathetic people. The real history of their service never has been, never can be written.

Societies were organized in every town, village and hamlet, in which the whole people joined in the unofficial efforts in behalf of their stricken ones.

The first movement in Union County for the relief of soldiers was in October, 1861, in response to an appeal of the Governor made to the generosity of all friends of the Union to contribute blankets and articles of clothing for the men in the field-the Government being unable to supply these goods in such quantities as they were demanded. Accordingly, committees were appointed in ea& township and the work of collecting and shipping the required articles was pushed rapidly forward.

To the citizens of Union Township is due the honor of having taken the first steps in the county for the purpose of rendering material aid and comfort to the families of volunteers from their township. At a meeting held in Milford Center, in November, 1861, there was appointed a committee of one from each school district of the township, whose duty it was to learn the necessities of such families and to solicit and receive money for their use.

In pursuance of the proclamation of the Governor of Ohio, issued April 11, 1862, calling for donations for the relief of the sick and wounded Union soldiers, a large number of the citizens of Marysville assembled at '.the court house on Monday. April 14, and organized a Soldiers' Relief Society, with the following officers: Mrs. W. W. Woods, President; Mrs. Ingman, Vice President; Miss Marv Coe, Secretary and Treasurer; and Mrs. Pickett, Mrs. Mary Cooper, Mrs. B. F. Kelsey, Mrs. J. W. Robinson, and Mrs. S. C. Lee, Executive Committee.

2. That the last meeting in November will be the annual meeting.

3. That a quarterly report be made from the Secretary and Treasurer.

About the time of the organization of the Ladies' Soldiers' Aid Society in Marysville, similar societies were organized in the various townships of the county. Large sums of money and great quantities of supplies were collected and sent forward for the soldiers. No better outline of the work of these so cieties can be given than the following summary of sanitary stores which wore, shipped from Marysville during the last two weeks of April, 1862:

Blankets, 9; bed ticks, 1; bandages, 25 rolls; books, 6; butter, 25 pounds; comforts, 18; cushions, 73; clothes, combs, crackers, cocoa; drawers, 71 pair; dried fruit, 25 packages; dried beef, 8 packages; dressing gowns, 12; eggs, 184 dozen; handkerchiefs, 60; ham, 400 pounds; jars of fruit, 82; jolly, 3 glasses: loaf sugar, 50 pounds; maple sugar; mattress, 1; needle cases, 4 needles; pillows, 117; pillow cases, 249 pairs; perpared chicken, 84 cans: paper and envelopes, pens, pencils, pins, periodicals, pin cushions; pickles, 1 barrel; quilts, 32; rice sheets, 179; shirts, 209; socks, 60 pairs; slippers. 12 pairs; table cloths; 4; towels, 233; tea cakes, I bushel; tapioca; wine, 1 bottle.

Few if any of the societies have left a report that would satisfactorily exhibit the barest outline of their efforts. But from the time of their organization until the close of the war--when help was no longer needed-the work was carried on with indefatigable vigor, and on a scale proportional with the number of soldiers furnished by the county.

As the war progressed, other and more public movements for relief were inaugurated, in which Union County expended $30,786 as a Military Relief Fund, $39,604 as a Bounty Fund, and $2,000 as a Veteran Bounty Fund$72,390 in all. This amount was raised by public tax and entirely outside of the thousands of dollars donated in a private way by individuals and aid societies of the county.

UNION COUNTY EX-SOLDIERS' ASSOCIATION.

A number of ex-soldiers assembled at Union Hall, Marysville, Ohio, on Monday evening, July 26, 1880, and organized themselves into a society, styled " The Union County Ex- Soldiers' and Sailors' Association."

The following plan of organization was adopted by the society.

" This organization shall be known as The Union County Ex-Soldiers' and Sailors' Association.

"All officers and soldiers in the United States service (luring any part of the war of the rebellion, who were honorably discharged, may become members by signing the Constitution and By-Laws of the Association.

" The officers of the society shall be a President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, to be elected by ballot annually, and to serve until their successors are elected.



" The main object of this organization shall be to perpetuate the memories of the service and cherish its friendships by annual meetings or celebrations and re-unions under the charge of the officers of the society and such assistants as may be appointed for the purpose; on the death of a comrade, to attend the funeral in a body and to reader assistance in any way that may be deemed necessary and to aid in perpetuating the National Decoration Day.

" The objects of the organization may be furthered in any other appropriate manner the society may adopt."

The first officers elected by the association were: J. L. Cameron, President; W. L. Curry, Secretary, and J. Van Pearse, Assistant Secretary.

The first re-union of the ex-soldiers of Union County was hold under the auspices of this society at Marysville, on the 26th of July, 1881.

Everything conspired to render this first re-union a grand success. A beautiful, bright blue sky, a cool, refreshing breeze, the beating of drums and flaunting of banners, a host of distinguished visitors and a long line of battlescarred veterans ushered in the day which was to witness one of the greatest events in the history of the town.

The decorations both public and private were universal. Big flags and little flags waved and fluttered everywhere in the breeze, and the view up and down the leading streets of festooned arches and Iona, lines of buildings bedocked with bunting, evergreens and inscriptions, was the admiration of the many visitors and a surprise to our own citizens.

An account of the exercises of the day would be but a repetition of the programme, which read as follows:

NATIONAL SALUTE AT SUNRISE.

Procession will form at 11 o'clock A. M., with right resting at the public square, in the following order, under the direction of Col. W. L. Curry, Chief Marshal:

1. Cornet Band.

12. As the head of the column arrives at the grounds, a salute will be fired from battery to Commander-in-Chief,

13. Review of Veterans and Military by Governor, Adjutant General and distinguished military officers. Invocation by Rev. H. Thrall, and Welcome Address by President J. L. Cameron.

14. Picnic dinner.

AFTERNOON.

15. Music-" Honor to the Soldiers "--Philharmonic Society.

16. Oration-Gen. J. Warren Keifer.

17. Music-Band.

18. Song-" Tenting on the Old Camp Ground "--Philharmonic Society.

19. Address.

20. Music-" Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean "-Philharmonic Society.

21. Business meeting of Regiments at Fine Art Hall.

22. Amusements and drill by military and cavalry.

Eighteen different Ohio regiments were represented in the procession, each regiment carrying its own old battle-flag which had been taken from the flag room in the State House to be present at this re-union.

Addresses were also made on this occasion by Gov. Foster, Hon. George K. Nash, Hon. Charles Townsend, Hon. J. F. Oglevee, Gen. J. S. Jones, Gen. J. S. Robinson and other distinguished guests. And thus pleasantly closed the exercises of the day. All concerned are to be congratulated on the entire success of the re-union, and not the least of these are the ladies who so untiringly gave their labor and taste to the work of making the occasion a success. The number in attendance was estimated at, from ten to twelve thousand.

The second re-union of this association was hold at Marysville on the 17th of August, 1882, Dr. D. W. Henderson presiding, and D. T. Elliot acting as Secretary.

" Not only the soldiers themselves were present on this occasion, but they brought their families and remained all day and interlarded the proceedings with a basket dinner, thus making the occasion one of real social pleasure."

One of our newspapers, in commenting on these reunions, says:

" The annual re-union of the soldiers of Union County has become one of the permanent institutions, as it ought to be. We hope these re-unions may become more prominent every year. The number of soldiers will from now be thinning out, but with their decreasing number will come a more vivd recollection of the events which they helped create."

Twenty years hence they will be very scarce. Hence the necessity of the present organization, which is designed to bring into closer fellowship the old veterans who bore the heat and burden of the conflict, and to keep them in the kindest regards for each other while they are living.

Let us, therefore, cherish the Soldiers' Association Of Union County for the good its members have done and for the glorious memories it is designed to perpetuate. D. Webb is the present President, arid W. M. Winget, Secretary of the Association.

GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC.

A Post of the Grand Army of the Republic was organized in Marysville, August 25, 1881. The Post was named Ransom Reed Post, in honor of the first soldier from Union County who lost his life in the war for the preservation of the Nation. Ransom Reed was a private, Company F, Thirteenth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry, who fell at the battle of Carnifex Ferry, September 10, 1861.


MILITARY RECORD. - 555

The number of the Post is 113, Department of Ohio. The Post was organized and instituted by Capt. D. Lanning, of Columbus, Ohio, mustering officer. The charter members were W. L. Curry, M. C. Lawrence, John Hobensack, Andrew Sabine, J. V. Pearse, W. P. Anderson, S. G. Fry, S. M. Landon, D. T. Elliott, D. W. Ayers, J. L. Cameron. William M. Winget. J.

B. Cole, G. P. Robinson, Frank Filler, T. P. Freeman, William H. Robb, William M. Liggett, Homer Thrall, John L. Porter. 1. N. Hamilton, Thomas Martin, T. S. Mullen, B. AV. Keyes, D. Webb, John E. Baxter. W. H. Robinson and William Torrence.

The first officers chosen were: W. L. Curry, Post Commander; John Hobensack, Senior Vice Commander; M. C. Lawrence, Junior Vice Commander; W. M. Liggett, Adjutant; W. H. Robb, Quartermaster; Andrew Sabine, Surgeon; Homer Thrall, Chaplain; W. P. Anderson. Officer of the Day; S. G. Fry, Officer of the Guard; D. T. Elliott, Sergeant Major; S. M. Landon, Quartermaster Sergeant; J. B. Cole, Assistant Inspector; and W. M. Winget, Aid-de-Camp.



Ransom Reed Post has had uninterrupted growth and prosperity. There have been only one or two meetings in eighteen months that recruits have not been mustered. The total Dumber mustered in the Post since its organization is 220; of these ten have been transferred to the Scribner Post, since organized at Plain City. In this large number of comrades there are representatives of over seventy different regiments and battalions.

Only one member of the Post has died sines the organization, M. C. Lawrence, late Lieutenant Colonel of the One Hundred and Twenty-first Ohio Infantry, who at the time of his death was Junior Vice Commander. His death occurred December 15, 1881, and on the 18th he was buried by the Post according to the service prescribed in the ritual for the burial of the dead.

As the public are interested in knowing the objects of the Grand Army of the Republic, it may be well to give a brief statement of them here. First, the object is not political; this is, distinctly declared in the following emphatic language in the rules:

" No officer or comrade of the Grand Army of the Republic shall in any manner use this organization for partisan purposes. and no discussion of partisan questions shall be allowed at any of its meetings nor shall any nomination for political office be made.."

The objects are: 1st, "the preservation of the spirit of comradeship, to preserve and strengthen those kind arid fraternal feelings which bind together the soldiers, sailors and marines who united to suppress the late rebellion, and to perpetuate the memory and history of the dead. "

To secure the last-mentioned object, a day is set apart, the 30th of May, to be observed as Decoration Day. The Post has an impressive service to be used on that day. 2d, mutual helpfulness. "To assist such former comrades in arms as need help and protection, and to extend needful aid to the widows and orphans of those who have fallen." It is the design of each Post to accumulate a fund to be used for charitable purposes. 3d, the promotion of loyalty to the Nation. "To maintain true allegiance to the United States of America, based upon a paramount respect for and fidelity to the National Constitution and laws, to discountenance whatever tends to weaken loyalty, incites to insurrection, treason or rebellion or in any manner impairs the efficiency and permanency of our free institutions: and to encourage the spread of universal liberty, equal rights and justice to all men." No man can become a member of the Grand Army of the Republic who has ever borne arms against the Government, or upon whom "the stain of treason rests." All honorably discharged soldiers and sailors of the war for the preservation of the Nation are eligible to membership. All distinction of rank are done away,


556 - UNION COUNTY

the title by which members are addressed or referred to in the meeting's and business of the Post being " Comrade."

The several constituted bodies of the association are Post, the State organization or Department, and the national organization, known as the National Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic.

A badge, consisting of a bronze star made out of cannon captured during the war and upon which is represented every corps of the army, is given to each comrade at his muster in.

The Commander of a Grand Army Post ranks as Colonel; S. V. Commander, Lieutenant Colonel; J. V. Commander, Major; Surgeon, Major; Officer of the Day, Captain; Quartermaster, First Lieutenant; Adjutant, First Lieutenant; and Officer of the Guard, Second Lieutenant.

CURRY CADETS.

BY A. H. BEIGHTLER.

On the 18th day of July, 1877, under the statute of the State, authorizing the organization of military companies, to be known as the Ohio National Guard, and to be subject to the order of the Governor for the purpose of suppressing riots or repelling invasion, a company was organized in Marysville, composed of forty-five young men from among the best families in the town. Their enlistment was for the term of five years. On the same date William L. Carry was elected Captain of the company, William M. Liggett First, and Charles W. Radebaugh, second Lieutenant. The company was at once furnished with fatigue uniforms and Springfield breech-loading rifles by the State.

From the organization of tile company its officers were very diligent in drilling it, and it soon became one of the best drilled and disciplined companies in the State.

The company was assigned to the Fourteenth Regiment, then being formed, with headquarters at Columbus, and was at first Company "E " of that organization, and afterward changed to "D." By a resolution unanimously adopted July 4, 1878, the company was named the "Curry Cadets, " in honor of Capt. Curry, who had then been elected Lieutenant Colonel of the Fourteenth Regiment. On November 23, 1877, William M. Liggett was promoted to the captaincy of the company, and Charles W. Radebaugh to the First Lieutenancy. John F. Zuerner was elected Second Lieutenant.

The Fourteenth Regiment having its headquarters at Columbus, was often called upon to do active duty, on important public occasions, and in which the Curry Cadets always participated. On January 14, 1878, it took part at Columbus in the inauguration of R. M. Bishop, as Governor of Ohio, and formed a part of the great military review on that occasion.



August 11, 1880, it took part in the National Re-union of ex-soldiers and sailors at Columbus, where it was reviewed by President Hayes, General Sherman, and other distinguished officers of tile Regular Army and formed a part of the President's escort.

It was also at the funeral of President Garfield at Cleveland, October, 1881, and was the recipient of special attention and honor on that memorable occasion.

In an interview with Gen. W. S. Hancock, published in the Cleveland Daily Globe, at that time, the General spoke in terms of the highest praise of the military bearing, strict discipline and soldierly appearance of the Fourteenth Regiment.

During the funeral ceremonies, the Fourteenth Regiment was given the post of honor, and placed on guard duty in Lake View Cemetery, and by orders from headquarters, the Carry Cadets were placed at the vault to guard the same and assist in tile decorations; and they remained oil duty there till the last Bad rites in honor of the martyred President had been per. formed, and the distinguished men of the Nation there assembled had moved sadly and silently away.

One week in each year the regiment went into camp, being furnished by the State with all necessary equipments for that purpose.

The time in camp was always well improved, by company and battalion drill, and learning the details of camp life. The first camping- place of the regiment was on the fair grounds, near Marysville, in August, 1878, where a week was spent in active service.

The next camping place was near Delaware, where tile Regiment stayed from August 12 to 17, 1879.

In 1880, from August 5 to 10, at Niagara Falls, N. Y., and from the 10th to the 12th of the same month at Columbus, Ohio.

In 1881, from August 8 to 9, at Lakeside, Ohio.

On the 18th of July, 1882, twenty-five of the members of the company, who enlisted July 18, 1877, were discharged by reason of the expiration of their term of enlistment, and the remaining members, with a number of recruits, re-organized the company, and it still maintains its reputation as a very efficient organization.


MILITARY RECORD. - 557

In 1882, Capt, William M. Liggett was elected Lieutenant Colonel of the Fourteenth Regiment, vice W. L. Curry, resigned.

The Curry Cadets then elected Junot D. Buxton, Captain, John L. Sellers, First Lieutenant, and D. S. Alexander, Second Lieutenant.

From August 17 to 24, 1882, the regiment camped on Belle Isle, near Detroit, Mich.

MARCHES, BATTLES AND SIEGES.

Believing that not only soldiers but. the general reader, after having perused the brief history of the services of Union County's soldiers, would be interested in the " maxims of war " which govern the movements of an army 'in the field, I have carefully compiled, from the Army Regulations and the best military authorities, this short chapter on marches, battles and sieges.

MARCHES.



The object of the movement and the nature of the ground determine the order of march, the kind of troops in each column and the number of columns.

The "general," sounded one hour before the time of marching, is the signal to strike tents, to load the wagons and pack-horses, and send them to the place of assembling. The fires are then put out; and care taken to avoid burning straw, etc., or giving to the enemy any other indication of the movement.

The " march " will be beat in the infantry, and the " advance " sounded in the cavalry, in succession, as each is to take its place in the column.

When the army should form suddenly to meet the enemy, the "long roll" is beat and " to horse" sounded. The troops form rapidly in front of their camp.

Batteries of artillery and their caissons move with the corps to which they are attached; the field train and ambulances march at the rear of the column, and the baggage with the rear guard.

In cavalry marches, when distant from the enemy, each regiment, and, if possible, each squadron, forms a separate column, in order to keep up the same gait from front to rear, and to trot, when desirable, on good ground. In such cases, the cavalry may leave camp later, and can give more rest to the horses and more attention to the shoeing and harness. Horses are not bridled until time to start.

The execution of marching orders must not be delayed. If the commander is not at the head of his troops when they are to march, the next in rank puts the column in motion.


558 - UNION COUNTY

In night marches. the Sergeant Major of each regiment remains at the roar with a drummer, to give notice when darkness or difficulty stops the march. In cavalry, a trumpeter is placed in roar of each squadron, and the signal repeated to the head of the regiment.

In approaching a defile, the Colonels are warned; they close their regiments as they come up (each regiment passes separately, at an accelerated pace and in as close order as possible).' The leading regiment, having passed and left room for the whole column in close order, then halts, and moves again as soon as the last regiment is through. In the cavalry, each squadron, be. fore quickening the pace to rejoin the column, takes its original order of march.

If two corps meet on the same road, they pass to the right, and both con tinue their march, if the road is wide enough; if it is not, the first in the order of battle takes the road, the other halts.

A column that halts to let another column pass resumes the march in advance of the train of this column. If a column has to pass a train, the train must halt, if necessary, till the column passes. The column which has precedence must yield if the commander, on seeing the order of the other, finds it for the interest of the service.

On a road, marching by the flank, it would be considered " good order " to have 5,000 men to a mile, so that a full corps, of 30,000 men, would extend six miles; but with the average trains and batteries of artillery, the probabilities are that it would draw out to ten miles. On a long and regular march, the divisions and brigades should alternate in the lead; the leading divisions should be on the road by the earliest dawn, and 'march at the rate of about two miles, or at most two and a half miles, an hour, so as to reach camp by noon. Even then the roar division and trains will hardly reach camp much before night. Theoretically, a marching column should preserve such order that by simply halting and facing to the right or left it would be in line of battle; but this is rarely the case, and generally deployments are made " forward," by conducting each brigade by the flail obliquely to the right or left to its approximate position in line of battle, and there deployed. In such a line of battle, a brigade of 3,000 infantry would occupy a mile of "front;" but for a strong line of battle, 5,000 men, with two batteries, should be allowed to each mile, or a division would habitually constitute a double line with skirmishers and a reserve on a mile of " front."

BATTLES.

Dispositions for battle depend on the number, kind and quality of the troops opposed, on the ground, and or. the objects of the war; but the following rules are to be observed generally:

In attacking, the advanced guard endeavors to capture the enemy's outposts, or cut them off from the main body. Having done so, or driven them in, it occupies, in advancing, all the points that can cover or facilitate the march of the army or secure its retreat, such as bridges, defiles, woods and heights; it then makes attacks, to occupy the enemy, without risking too much, and to deceive them as to the march and projects of the army.

When the enemy is hidden by a curtain of advanced troops, the commandant of the advanced guard sends scouts, under intelligent officers, to the right and left, to ascertain his position and movements. If he does not succeed in this way, he tries to unmask the enemy by demonstrations; threatens to cut the advance from the main body; makes false attacks; partial and impetuous charges in echelon; and if all fail, be makes a real attack to accomplish the object.


MILITARY RECORD. - 559

Detachments, left by the advance guard to hold points in the rear, rejoin it when other troops come up. If the army takes a position, and the advanced guard is separated from it by defiles or heights, the communication is secured by troops drawn from the main body.

At proper distance from the enemy, the troops are formed for the attack in several lines; if only two can be formed, some battalions in column are placed behind the wings of the second line. The lines may be formed by troops in column or in order of battle, according to the ground and plan of attack.

The advanced guard may be put in the line or on the wings, or other positions, to aid the pursuit or cover the retreat.

The reserve is formed of the best troops of foot and horse, to complete a victory or make good a retreat. It is placed in the rear of the central or chief point of attack or defense.

The cavalry should be distributed in echelon on the wings and at. the center, on favorable ground.

It should be instructed not to take the gallop until within charging distance; never to receive a charge at a halt, but to meet it, or, if not strong enough, to retire maneuvering; and in order to be ready for the pursuit, and prepared against a reverse, or the attacks of the reserve, not to engage all its squadrons at once, but to reserve one-third, in column or in echelon, abreast of or in the rear of one of the wings; this arrangement is better than a second line with intervals.

In the attack, the artillery is employed to silence the batteries that protect the position. In the defense, it is better to direct its fire on the advancing troops. In either case, as many pieces are united as possible, the fire of the artillery being formidable in proportion to concentration.

In battles and military operations, it is better to assume the offensive, and put the enemy on the defensive; but to be safe in doing so requires a larger force than the enemy, or better troops, and favorable ground. When obliged to act on the defensive, the advantage of position and of making the attack may sometimes be secured by forming in rear of the ground on which we are to fight, and advancing at the moment of action. In mountain warfare, the assailant has always the disadvantage; and even in offensive warfare in the open field, it may frequently be very important, when the artillery is well posted, and any advantage of ground may be-secured, to await the enemy and compel him to attack,

The attack should be made with a superior force on the decisive point of the enemy's position, by masking this by false attacks and demonstrations on other points, and by concealing the troops intended for it by the ground, or by other troops in their front.

Besides the arrangements which depend on the supposed plan of the enemy, the wings must be protected by the ground, or supported by the troops in echelon; if the attack of the enemy is repulsed, the offensive must at once be taken, to inspire the troops, to disconcert the enemy, and often to decide the action. In thus taking the offensive, a close column should be pushed rapidly on the wing or flank of the enemy. The divisions of this column form in line of battle successively, and 'each division moves to the front as soon as formed, in order, by a rapid attack in echelon, to prevent. the enemy from changing front or bringing up his reserves. In all arrangements, especially in those for attack, it is most important to conceal the design until the moment of execution, and then to execute it with the greatest rapidity. The night, therefore, is preferred for the movement of troops on the flank or rear of the enemy, otherwise it is necessary to mask their march by a grand movement in front, or by taking a wide circuit.

In making an attack, the communications to the rear and for retreat must be secured, and the General must give beforehand all necessary orders to provide for that event.

When a success is gained, the light troops should pursue the enemy promptly and rapidly. The other troops will restore order in their columns, then advance'- from position to position, always prepared for an attack or to support the troops engaged.

Before the action, the Generals indicate the places where they will be; if they change position, they give notice of it, or leave a staff officer to show where they have gone.

During the light, the officers and non-commissioned officers keep the men in the ranks, and enforce obedience if necessary. Soldiers must not be permitted to leave the ranks to strip or rob the dead, nor even to assist the wounded unless by express permission, which is only to be given after the action is decided. The highest interest and most pressing duty is to win the victory, by winning which only can a proper care of the wounded be insured.



Before the action, the Quartermaster of the division makes all the neces sary arrangements for the transportation of the wounded. He establishes the ambulance depots in the rear, and gives his assistants the necessary instructions for the service of the ambulance wagons and other means of removing the wounded.

The ambulance depot, to which the wounded are carried or directed for immediate treatment, is generally established at the most convenient building nearest the field of battle. A red flag marks its place, or the way to it, to the conductors of the ambulances and to the wounded who can walk.

The active ambulances follow the troops engaged, to succor the wounded and remove them to the depots; for this purpose the conductors should always have the necessary assistants, that the soldiers may have no excuse to leave the ranks for that object.

The medical director of the division, after consultation with the Quartermaster General, distributes the medical officers and hospital attendants at his disposal to the depots, and active ambulances. He will send officers and attendants when practicable, to the active ambulances, to relieve the wounded who require treatment before being removed from the ground. He will see that the depots and ambulances are provided with the necessary apparatus, medicines and stores. He will take post, and render his professional services, at the principal depot.

If the enemy endanger the depot, the Quartermaster takes the orders of the General to remove it, or to strengthen its guard.

The wounded in the depots and the sick are removed, as soon as possible, to the hospitals that have been established by the Quartermaster General of the army, on the flank or rear of the army.

After an action, the officers of ordnance collect the munitions of war left on the field, and make a return of them to the General. The Quartermaster's department collects the rest of the public property captured, and makes the returns to headquarters.

Written reports for the General commanding-in-chief are made by commandants of regiments, batteries, separate squadrons, and by all commanders of a higher grade, each in what concerns his own command, and to his immediate commander.

When an officer or soldier deserves mention for conduct in action, a special report shall be made in his case, and the General commanding- in-chief decides whether to mention him in his report to the Government and in his orders. But he shall not be mentioned in the report until he has been mentioned in the orders to the army. These special reports are examined with


MILITARY RECORD. - 561

care by the intermediate commanders, to verify the facts, and secure commendations and rewards to the meritorious only.

PRISONERS OF WAR.

Prisoners of war will be disarmed and sent to the rear, and reported as soon as practicable to headquarters. The return of prisoners from the headquarters of the army to the War Department will specify the number, rank and corps.

SIEGES.

In the following regulations, the besieging force is supposed to be two divisions of infantry and a brigade off cavalry. The same principles govern in other cases.

The Brigadier Generals of infantry serve, in turn, as Generals of the trenches; one or more of them are detailed daily, according to the front and number of attacks; they superintend the operations, and dispose the guards of the trenches to repulse sorties and protect 'the works. Officers of the general staff are assigned to them to transmit their orders and attend to the details of service.

The commandants of engineers and artillery accompany the first troops be. fore the works, to examine the works and approaches. When the engineers have completed the reconnaissance of the works, and of each front as far as practicable, the commandant of engineers makes a plan of the works, as exact and detailed as possible, and, under the instructions of the General commanding the siege, draws up the general plan of the siege, and discusses it with the commandant of artillery in regard to & best employment of that arm. These officers then submit their joint or separate opinions to the General, who decides on the plan of the siege, and gives the orders for the execution. The command. ant of engineers directs the construction of all the works of the siege, under the authority of the General, and lays before him every day a report of his operations, and a plan showing the progress of the attack. The commandant of artillery also makes daily reports to the General, of all that relates to his branch of the service.

The field officer of the trenches sees that men and litters are always ready, to bring off the wounded. One or more companies of the guards of the trenches are put under his immediate orders for the preservation of order and police in the trenches.



The divisions, brigades, regiments and battalions are encamped during the siege, in the order of battle.

Materials for the siege, such as fascines, gabions, hurdles, pickets, etc., are furnished by the different corps, in the proportion ordered by the General.

Guards and workmen going to the trenches march without beat of drum or music.

The guards always enter the trenches with arms trailed led, and the workmen also, unless they carry materials or tools, when the arms are in the sling.

Sand bags, forming loop-holes, are placed at intervals in the parapet, to cover the sentinels; they are more numerous than the sentinels, so that the enemy may not know where the sentinels are placed.

When detachments are placed at night in advance of the trenches, to cover the workmen, the men sit or lie down, with their firearms in their hands, to hide themselves better from the enemy; the Sentinels put their ears to the ground frequently, that they may hear troops coming out of the place. To prevent mistakes, the workmen are told what troops cover them.

No honors are paid in the trenches. When the General commanding the siege visits them, the guards place themselves in rear of the banquette, and rest on their arms. The colors are never carried to the trenches, unless the


562 - UNION COUNTY

whole regiment marches to repulse a sortie or make an assault. Even in this case, they are not displayed until the General commanding the siege gives formal order.

In the case of a sortie, the guards move rapidly to the places that have been designated by the General of the trenches, and which afford the best defense for the bead of the works, the batteries, the communications or the Banks, or best enable them to take the sortie itself in flank or reverse. Having lined the banquette to fire on the enemy, the troops form on the reverse of the trench too receive him. The workmen take arms, retain their positions, or retire with their tools, as ordered. The officers commanding the detachments of workmen see that their movements are made promptly and in good order, so as to avoid all confusion in the communications.

The troops that advance beyond the trenches, to repulse the sortie, must not follow -in pursuit. The General takes care that they return to the trenches before the retreat of the sortie allows the artillery of the place to open on them. When the workmen return, the officers and non-commissioned officers of the detachments call the roll without interrupting the work, which is immediately resumed.

The general officers of cavalry are more particularly employed in, the serv. ice of posts, and detachments placed in observation to protect the siege. They and the field officers of this arm are employed in the command of escorts to convoys, of whatever arms the escorts may be composed. When these duties are not sufficient to employ them, they take their share of the duties of the trenches.

In war, every commander of a fortified place should always hold himself prepared with his plan of defense, as if at any time liable to attack. He arranges his plan according to the probable mode of attack; determines the posts of the troops in the several parts of the works, the reliefs, the reserves and the details of service in all the corps. He draws up instructions for a case of attack, and exercises the garrison according to his plan of defense. In sea-coast works, he provides the instructions for the different batteries on the approach of ships.

On the approach of an enemy, he removes all houses and other objects, within or without the place, that cover the approaches, or interrupt the fire of the guns or the movements of the troops. He assures himself personally that all posterns, outlets, embrasures, etc., are in proper state of security.

He consults his next in rank, and the senior officer of the engineers and of the artillery, either separately or as a council of defense. In the latter case, he designates an officer to act as Secretary to the council, and to record their proceedings, and their joint or separate opinions, which are to be kept secret during the siege. The members may record their opinions under their own signature. In all cases, the commander decides on his own responsibility.

The commander shall defend in succession the advanced works, the covered ways and outworks, the body of the work and the interior intrenchments. He will not be content with clearing away the foot of the breaches, and defending them by abattis, mines, and all the means used in sieges; but he shall begin in good time, behind the bastions or front of attack, the necessary intrenchments, to resist assaults on the main work.

When the commander thinks that the end of the defense has come, he shall still consult the council of defense on the means that may remain to prolong the siege. But in all cases he alone will decide on the time, manner and terms of the surrender. In the capitulation, he shall not seek or accept better terms for himself than for the garrison, but shall share their fate, and exert his beat endeavors for the care of the troops, and especially of the sick and wounded.
