576 ADJUTANT GENERAL S REPORT

HISTORY OF SEVENTY-THIRD INFANTRY.

The Seventy-third Infantry was recruited from the counties of Adams, Champaign.Christian, Hancocls, Jackson, Logan, Piatt, Pike, Sangamon, Taswell and Vermilion. It

was mustered into the service at Camp Butler August 21, 1862, and numbered nine hundredstrong. It moved almost Immediately for the front. Colonel Jaquess commanding. It

reached Louisville August 25.

Camp Jacquess was the first resting place of the Regiment in Kentucky. The first moveof the Regiment after reaching Louisville was to Camp Yates. The Seventy-third was first

brigaded with the Thirty-fourth and One Hundredth Illinois Infantry, and the Seventy-ninth and Eighty-eighth Indiana. It bore its part in covering the retreat of the forces

which had been defeated in an engagement at Richmond, Ky.; also in the movement by rail

from Louisville to Cincinnati and Covington to assist in resisting an invasion by KirbySmith's forces. The Regiment had acquired such proficiency in the simpler evolutions of

the drill that in marching through Cincinnati spectators were surprised to learn it was not

an old Regiment. Smith's invasion not materializing to any great extent the Seventy-third

with other forces returned from Covington to Louisville the latter part of September.A re-organization of the army placed the Seventy-third in a brigade with the Forty-fourth

Illinois and the Second and Fifteenth Missouri. This brigade, under Colonel Leibold. Sec-

ond Missouri, was assigned to Sheridan's Division, and remained in it until Sheridan wasordered east in the spring of 1864. October 1, 1862, the army under Buell started in pursuit

of Bragg. On the 8th of that month military operations in Kentucky culminated in the bat-

tle of Perryville. A little after noon on this date the Seventy-third was posted in an ex-

posed position, one within easy range of a Confederate battery. The withdrawal of the

Regiment to the main line in an opportune moment no doubt saved it from severe loss. Atabout 3 o'clock p. m. the Seventy-third became engaged and so continued until after 4

o'clock, delivering and receiving a heavy fire. This battle over and Bragg getting off withhis army and supplies, the Union army pursuing only as far as Crab Orchard, a change in

the direction of the latter was ordered, and on November 7 it reached Nashville, Tenn. In

the meantime Rosecrans had relieved Buell in command of the Army of the Cumberland.From the time the Regiment left Kentucky up to and subsequent to the movement on Mur-freesboro it lost a number of men by disability and from disease; quite a number died at

Bowling Green and many more at Nashville. The Regiment broke camp December 25

preparatory to moving on Stone River. The brigade, which at Mill Creek had been placed

under the command of General Schafer, did not participate in any of the preliminaryskirmishing at Stone River. On December 31, however, opportunity was aftbrded for everyregiment to bear a part. General Schafer was killed before noon. Colonel Jaquess waswith his Regiment at Perryville but was not at Stone River, so the Seventy-third was com-manded by Ma.ior William Presson. During the day the Regiment was in several conflicts

and fully established its reputation for courage. It was in the opening of the campaignagainst Tullahoma and Chattanooga, to which points Bragg's forces had retreated. June23, 1863, was the date on which the summer campaign was actively iniated on the part of the

Infantry. At Fairfield and Estill Springs the Seventy-third was present but was not called

into action. Crossing Elk River the first stop was at Cowan Station. After a few days rest

the Division proceeded through Cumberland Tunnel to Stevenson, Ala., where it remaineduntil September 22: thence it moved to Bridgeport, and crossing the Tennessee River joined

in the movement on Alpine, which flanked the enemy out of Chattanooga. The next hard

SEVENTY-THIRD INFANTRY. 577

marching was in the concentration of the Federal forces to meet those of the enemy at

Chickamauga. Colonel Leibold was in command of the Brigade and Colonel Jaquess of the

Regiment. The terrible strain of this memorable battle being over, the remnants of regimentsand brigades fell back to Chattanooga. From the latter part of September to the 24th of

November the Union forces were organizing and preparing for the brilliant achievementsat Lookout Mountain and Missionary Ridge.

Missionary Ridge was the theater of operation for the Seventy-third in the conflict in

November, 1863. In this engagement the conduct of the Regiment fully merited the praise

bestowed in congratulatory orders. Next came the campaign into East Tennessee to the re-

lief of Burnside. Dandridge was visited by the Seventy-third and other regiments. Thiscampaign was characterized by hard, slavish marching and scant rations. East Tennesseehaving been redeemed the Union army returned to Chattanooga, the Seventy-third encamp-ing at Cleveland. May 3, 1864, the Atlanta campaign opened. The re-organization of the

army after Chickamauga placed the Regiment in the First Brigade, Second Division, FourthCorps. In vicinity of Catoosa Springs the whiz of the enemy's bullets was first heard. AtRocky Faced Ridge was treated to some of the same kind of music. No chance to recipro-

cate at either of these two places, but at the latter some sharp-shooters, specially detailed

from the Regiment, did good work. Some skirmishing near Dalton and between there andResaca. May 14, participated in battle of Resaca. May 17, Regiment broke apart in the

action at Adairsville. and two days later in skirmishes about Kingston. At latter place twoor three days rest were obtained. Starting forward again, and coming in contact with the

enemy, the month of June, 1864, chronicled the following engagements, in the most of whichthe Seventy-third participated: Burnt Hickory, Pine and Lost Mountains, New HopeChurch and Kenesaw Mountain. In the assault on Kenesaw Mountain the Regiment suf-

fered comparatively little, owing to the nature of ground. Was under fire July 4,1864; one

man was killed. Reached Chattahoochie River about July 6, encamping above Vining's

Station. July 9. made an expedition to Roswell, the seat of cotton factories, which were de-

stroyed. Returned to Vining's Station July 12. Crossed Chattahoochie River July 13. Oneweek later participated in battle of Peach Tree Creek. Next came the skirmishing, the slow

advances and delays necessary to the siege or investment of Atlanta. The enemy evacuat-

ing and retreating from Atlanta, the engagements at Jonesboro and Lovejoy's Station oc-

curred. In neither of these was the Regiment actively engaged, though under fire in both.

Arrived at Atlanta September 8. About September 20th the Fourth Corps returned by rail

to Chattanooga. Made reconnoissance in force to Alpine Valley; returned to Chattanooga,

thence by rail to Huntsville, Alabama. Then came the hard marching and the race with

Hood's army for Nashville. Bore a part in the skirmishing near Columbia, Tennessee,

south of Duck River, and crossed the river the night of November 27. Since starting out

in May the Brigade had had three or four different commanders, including Leibold, F.

Sherman and N. Kimball. It was now under Emerson Opedycke, Colonel One Hundred andTwenty-fifth Ohio. Prom Duck River the Brigade fell back to Spring Hill, and beingpressed by the enemy, skirmished a good part of the way. Participated in the action at

Spring Hill the afternoon of November 28. Stood picket that Bight, as on the previous

night at Duck River. With the break of day, November 30, trouble commenced. Beingalready deployed the Brigade skirmished nearly the whole distance from Spring Hill to

Franklin. Arriving within one mile and a half of Franklin, Brigade was relieved fromskirmish line, and marched directly into suburbs of town, passing on the way the troops

posted in front of and also those occupying the works, and halted in position behind Car-

ter's Hill. Fortunate, indeed, was it for the Union forces that a Brigade was posted there.

At a critical moment—a crisis in the battle—this Brigade was thrust iuto the "imminent anddeadly breach," and undoubtedly averted an overwhelming disaster. At the point of the

bayonet the breach was repaired and the line of battle maintained unbroken until late at

night, although the enemy repeatedly dashed wildly and furiously against it. Withdrawingfrom Franklin and crossing the Harpeth, Nashville was reached December 1, 1864, about 1

o'clock p. Ji. With Opedyeke's Brigade, or part of it, here was two nights' picketing in suc-

cession, in face of the enemy, nearly two days' skirmishing, participation in two battles, andthe falling back from Duck River to Nashville, without any sleep that was at all restful.

The Seventy-third took part both days (December 15 and 16, 1864) in battles at Nashville, in

afternoon of 16th making, with many other regiments, its last bayonet charge, which wassuccessful. Joined in pursuit of Hood, going to Pulaski, Tenn., at which place about De-cember 23, 1864, was last exposed to the enemy's fire. Proceeded to Huntsville, Alabama, ar-

riving January 5, 1865. March 28, 1865, went by rail to Blue Springs, East Tennessee, remaining

Vol. 4-87.
