This regiment was
organized at South Bend and was mustered in
at Indianapolis
Aug. 31, 1862. It left the state the same day
for Louisville
where it was assigned to Burbridge's brigade,
but was
transferred on Oct. 1 to the 3d brigade, 3d division,
14th army corps,
and took part in Buell's Kentucky campaign. It was engaged at
Springfield and Perryville; encamped near Mitchellville, Tenn., in
November, and afterward occupied camps at Tunnel Hill, Pilot Knob and
Gallatin. On Jan. 29, 1863, it moved to the south of Nashville and was
engaged in a skirmish at Chapel Hill. Col. Shryock resigned on Mar. 28,
and Lieut.Col. Gleason was promoted colonel in his place. In June it
engaged in the campaign against Tullahoma and was under fire at Hoover's
Gap. It then marched to the Tennessee River; participated in the
movement against Chattanooga; took a conspicuous part at Chickamauga,
where it lost 40 killed, 142 wounded, and 8 missing, over half its
numbers engaged; and was in Chattanooga during the siege. On the
reorganization of the Army of the Cumberland, it formed a part of the
2nd brigade, 3d division, 14th corps. It was in the front line in the
storming of Missionary Ridge and joined the pursuit of the enemy to
Ringgold, participated in the expedition against Dalton, and was in a
skirmish at Buzzard Roost. It was in camp at Ringgold until May 7, when
it joined the Atlanta movement and participated at Rocky Face Ridge,
Resaca Cassville, Dallas, Kennesaw Mountain, Peachtree Creek, the
engagements at Atlanta, Utoy Creek, and Jonesboro. It was in camp at
Atlanta until October, and then took part in the pursuit of Hood through
northern Georgia, marching as far as Gaylesville, Ala. It then returned
to Atlanta and left on Nov. 16 with the 14th corps for Milledgeville. It
was in a skirmish with Wheeler's cavalry near Sandersville and again
near Waynesboro. Upon reaching Savannah it took part in the siege,
remained there until Jan. 30, 1865, when it joined the movement through
the Carolinas. It reached Goldsboro with the army, remaining in camp
there until April 10, 1865. It took part in the capture of Smithville
and from there it proceeded to Raleigh, thence to Holly Springs, and
after the surrender of Johnston marched to Richmond and then to
Washington, where it participated in the grand review. It was mustered
out at Washington June 10, 1865, and the recruits were transferred to
the 42nd Ind. serving with that regiment until its muster out in July.
