Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Capture and Occupation of Richmond: April 3rd, 1865 Our division, the Third of the Twenty-fourth Army Corps, under Brigadier-General Charles Devens, was left behind to extend over and hold the trenches thus evacuated. That night I was withdrawn from our position at the right of Fort Harrison, and stretched out in a thin line over the ground recently held by the three brigades of Foster´s division. Daylight broke to find me established in General Foster´s abandoned headquarters at the sallyport on the Newmarket road, at the salient of our lines, where we approached most nearly to Richmond. Here a new regiment was added to my command, and about 500 convalescents and stragglers, representing nearly every regiment in the other two divisions, were organized into a regiment, equipped, and taken upon my rolls. The brigade then comprised the following regiments: The staff, 7. Officers. Men. 11th Ct. 26 412 Major Chas. Warren commanding. 13th N. H. 13 247 Lieutenant-Colonel Norman Smith commanding. 19th Wis. 15 308 Major Vaughn commanding. 81st N. Y. 11 83 Captain Betton commanding. 98th N. Y. 17 268 Lieutenant -Colonel William Kreutzer commanding. 139th N. Y. 16 306 Major Theo. Miller commanding. Convalescents 14 546 A total of 119 2250 Of these my morning report showed 91 officers and 2219 privates for duty, and 90 officers and 1950 privates effective.
