ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEENTH INFANTRY. 315

HISTORY OF ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEENTHINFANTRY.

The troops composing this Regiment enlisted under the call of the President of

July 2, 1862, and the companies were formed during August, 1862, and from the follow-

ing places and counties: Company A, Captain Thomas J. Campbell, Fountain Green;Company B, Captain R. W. McClaughry, Carthage; Company C, Captain A. W. Marsh,Hamilton; Company E, Captain J. S. Allen, Warsaw, and Company H, Captain F. G.Mourning, Basco, all in Hancock county,—Company D, Captain J. H. Holton, Quincy;Company F, Captain W. J. Evans, Richfield, and Company K, Captain J. D. Rosen-book, Mendon, Adams county; Company G, Captain Joseph Shaw, Terre Haute, Hen-derson county, and Company I, Captain Charles During, Gallatin county.

The companies rendezvoused at Camp Butler during the month of September, 1862,

were respectively sworn into the service by Adjutant General Fuller, and organizedinto a Regiment. In October an election was held for Regimental officers, at whichMajor John G. Fonda, of the Twelfth Illinois Cavalry, then commanding Camp Butler,

was selected Lieutenant Colonel, Captain R. W. McClaughry, Major, Madison Reece,

Surgeon, J. K. Boude, Assistant Surgeon, W. K. Davison, Quartermaster, and ThomasM. Walker, Chaplain.

The Regiment remained on duty in charge of the post and guarding rebel prisoners

until December. It was mustered into the United States service on the 7th of Novem-ber, 1862, by Captain Washington, for three years,—with a total of 820 men and officers.

November 21, it was armed with Enfield Rifles. November 29, Lieutenant Colonel

Fonda was promoted to Colonel, and Captain Thomas Logan, of Company G, TwelfthIllinois Cavalry, was made Lieutenant Colonel. December 1, left by Chicago andAlton Railroad, for Alton, and there by boat to St. Louis and below, arrived at

Memphis, Tenn., and wtent into camp on Wolf River. Here the Regiment was as-

signed to the First Brigade (Colonel Sheldon, Forty-second Ohio commanding) ThirdDivision, General G. W. Morgan—and Thirteenth Army Corps, Army of the Tennessee.While here received its first tents, first watery beds, first "powder and ball" cart-

ridges, its first scare, first "turn out for firing on the pickets," and first introduction

to rebel jay hawkers, in a night and a day skirmish.

On December 20, embarked on the steamer "Northerner" with forces under GeneralSherman, for Vicksburg, Miss. Reached Milliken's Bend December 25, and the follow-

ing day proceeded up the Yazoo River, and participated in the attack upon ChickasawBluffs, from the 26th of December to January 2, 1863. On January 2, after the troops

had re-embarked, the Regiment while on boat was under a heavy fire from a rebel

line.

From here proceeded with the force under General McClernand to Arkansas Post,

the District of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which command he held until October, 1865.
