RECORD OF THE ORGANIZATIONS ENGAGED IN THE CAMPAIGN, SIEGE, AND DEFENSE OF VICKSBURG. COMPILED FROM THE OFFICIAL RECORDS BY JOIHN S. KOLUNTZ. SECRETARY AND HISTORIAN OF THE COMMISSION. WASHINGTON: GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE. 1901. PREFACE. The Vicksburg campaign 'opened March 29, 1863, with General Grant's order for the advance of General Osterhaus' division from Millikens Bend, and closed July 4, 1863, with the surrender of Pemberton's army and the city of Vicksburg. Its course was determined by General Grant's plan of campaign. This plan contemplated the march of his active army from Millikens Bend, La., to a point on the river below Vicksburg, the running of the batteries at Vicksburg by a sufficient number of gunboats and transports, and the transfer of his army to the Mississippi side. These points were successfully accomplished and, May 1, the first battle of the campaign was fought near Port Gibson. Up to this time General Grant had contemplated the probability of uniting the army of General Banks with his. He then decided not to await the arrival of Banks, but to make the campaign with his own army. May 12, at Raymond, Logan's division of Grant's army, with Crocker's division in reserve, was engaged with Gregg's brigade of Pemberton's army. Gregg was largely outnumbered and, after a stout fight, fell back to Jackson. The same day the left of Grant's army, under McClernand, skirmished at Fourteenmile Creek with the cavalry and mounted infantry of Pemberton's army, supported by Bowen's division and two brigades of Loring's division. After the battle of Raymond, Sherman's and McPherson's corps of Grant's army moved toward Jackson. They reached that city May 14, and occupied it after a brief and spirited engagement with the small force there under Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, who reached that place the night of May 13. General Grant had now interposed. his army between the armies of General Johnston and General Pemberton. He left Sherman's corps one day at Jackson to complete the 4 destruction of the stores and as much as possible of the railroads there. McPherson's corps marched from Jackson, May 16, toward Vicksburg. May 16, McClernand's and McPherson's corps of Grant's army engaged three divisions of Pemberton's army at Champions Hill. Pemberton's forces were driven from the field in some confusion and with severe loss in killed, wounded, prisoners, and guns. Two divisions fell back toward Vicksburg. One division (Loring's) was cut off from the others and did not fall back to Vicksburg, but marched 3 4 to Crystal Springs and a little later united with Johnston's army at Jackson. May 17, a part of Pemberton's army attempted to hold the works on the east side of Big Black River, but was driven from its intrenchments, with considerable loss in prisoners and guns, by the Thirteenth Corps of Grant's army. May 18, Pemberton's army took position in the defensive works around Vicksburg, Stevenson's division on the rights Forney's in the center, and M. L. Smith's on the left. Bowen's division and Waul's Texas Legion were held in reserve, but later Green's (Dockery's) brigade of Bowen's division was placed in the line of defense on the right of Smith and the left of Forney. Late in the afternoon of the same day Grant's army began taking position in the line of investment, Sherman's corps on the right, resting its right on the Mississippi River above the city, McPherson's corps in the center, and McClernand's corps on the left of McPherson. May 24, Lauman's (Fourth) division, Sixteenth Army Corps, took position on the left of McClernand, and, June 15, the investment was completed by Herron's division, from the Department of the Missouri, taking position on the left of Lauman and resting its left on the Mississippi River below Vicksburg. May 19 and again May 22, assaults were made by Grant's army, but were repulsed with severe loss to the assailants. From May 23 to July 4 regular siege operations were carried on by Grant, and opposed by Pemberton. During this time Admiral Porter's fleet rendered valuable assistance, and Grant was also reinforced by three divisions of the Sixteenth Corps, two divisions of the Ninth Corps, and Herron's division. With the exception of Lauman's and Herron's divisions, which took position in the line of investment as above noted, all these reinforcements and a part of the army with which he began the campaign were employed by Grant against the army of General Johnston. This last-named army, with headquarters at Jackson, was assembled with the hope of raising the siege or assisting Pemberton to break through Grant's line. No considerable force of Johnston's army crossed the Big Black River during the siege and defense. At the surrender, July 4, it was close to and on the east side of that river. The following pages give the organizations, a brief record of the movements and engagements, and the casualties of the three armies during the campaign, siege, and defense. 1 Brig. Gen. Martin E. Green was killed May 27. ORGANIZATION OF THE UNION FORCES OPERATING AGAINST VICKSBURG, MAJ. GEN. ULYSSES S. GRANT, UNITED STATES ARMY, COMMANDING, MAY 18 TO JULY 4, 1863. ARMY OF THE TENNESSEE. Maj.

Two divisions of this corps were ordered from the Department of the Ohio June 3. They arrived at Snyders Bluff on transports from Cairo, disembarked June 17, took position from Milldale to Templetons, and slightly fortified that line. June 29, by order of General Sherman, the corps moved to the east and took position in the new line extending from Haynes Bluff to the railroad crossing of Big Black River, resting its left at Neily's and its right at Brant's. One regiment (Thirty-sixth Massachusetts) was left at Templetons, and a detachment, probably a regiment, at Milldale. The corps fortified this position and remained in it until the surrender of Vicksburg. First Divison.-Brig. Gen. THOMAS WELSH. First Brigade, Col. Henry Bowman: Thirty-sixth Massachusetts, Lieut.

The Thirteenth Army Corps opened the campaign by the advance of Osterhaus' (Ninth) division from Millikens Bend to Richmond March 31. April 28, the corps was concentrated at Perkins' plantation, on the Mississippi River, at the mouth of Brushy Bayou, where on that day it went on board transports, under orders to attack the enemy next day at Grand Gulf after his guns should be silenced by the fire of the gunboats. The attack of the gunboats having failed to realize this expected result, the corps disembarked at Hard Times Landing in the afternoon of April 29 and marched across the peninsula to De Shroon's, where it again went on board transports, dropped down the river the forenoon of April 30, and disembarked at Bruinsburg. Here it drew rations, and at 4 p. m., with Carr's (Fourteenth) division in advance, began the march toward Port Gibson. At Port Gibson, May 1, the entire corps was engaged. On the morning of May 2 the corps, with A. J. Smith's (Tenth) division in advance, entered Port Gibson, and May 3, crossed the South Fork of Bayou Pierre and marched via Willow Springs, Rocky Springs, Big Sandy, and Fivemile Creek to Fourteenmile Creek, where, May 12, it skirmished with the enemy. May 15 the corps was concentrated on the roads leading from Raymond to Edwards Station, Hovey's (Twelfth) division on the upper road, Osterhaus' (Ninth) division and Carr's (Fourteenth) division on the middle road, A. J. Smith's (Tenth) division on the lower road. The battle of Champion's Hill, May 16, was opened by the advance of the corps along these roads. All the divisions were engaged, but the brunt of the fighting by the corps fell on Hovey's division. At 1 Relieved June 19. 7 the close of the battle Hovey's division remained on the field and the other divisions marched to Edwards Station. These divisions were engaged, May 17, in the battle of Big Black River Bridge. May 18 the corps (except Hovey's division) crossed the river and marched via Vicksburg and Jackson road to Mount Albans, and thence on the Baldwins Ferry road to within four miles of Vicksburg, where it rested for the night. During the 19th the corps advanced, skirmishing, to within some 500 yards of the enemy's intrenchments. May 22 it joined in the general assault, and later participated in the operations of the siege-A. J. Smith's division on the right, Carr's division on the rightcenter, one brigade of Osterhaus' division on the left-center, and Hovey's division on the left of the corps line of investment. The corps held the left center of the army, its right connecting with McPherson's left and its left with the right of Lauman's division, Sixteenth Army Corps. Ninth Division.-Brig. Gen. PETER J. OSTERHAUS.1 First Brigade, Brig. Gen. Albert L. Lee, Col. James Keigwin: 2 One hundred and eighteenth Illinois, Col. John G. Fonda; Forty-ninth Indiana, Maj. Arthur J. Hawhe, Lieut. Col. Joseph H.

Artillery, Capt. Jacob T. Foster: Michigan Light, Seventh Battery, Capt. Charles H. Lanphere; Wisconsin Light, First Battery, Lieut. Oscar F. Nutting. This division reached New Carthage April 6, from Millikens Bend, and on the 15th its advance skirmished near Dunbar's. At Port Gibson, May 1, it opened the battle on the left, but was unable to make much progress. Late in the afternoon, being reinforced by a part of Logan's division, the force on the left advanced and drove the enemy from the field. The division was slightly engaged at Champion's Hill, May 16, and also at Big Black River Bridge, May 17, where it was in support of Carr's division. During the operations of May 19 the division was the extreme left of the army, and on the 22d it advanced to the assault on the left of Carr's division and against the enemy's intrenchments south of the railroad redoubt, but failed to reach his line at any point. May, 24, General Osterhaus was ordered 1Wounded at Big Black River Bridge May 17. 2 Assumed command May 19. 8 to the railroad crossing at Big Black River and took Keigwin's (First) brigade with him, where it remained to the end of the siege. Lindsey's (Second) brigade, under temporary command of General Hovey, held a position in the investment line south of the railroad and between the divisions of Carr and Hovey, and took part in the siege operations.

This division moved from Millikens Bend April 14, and reached Perkins' plantation on the 26th. It crossed the Mississippi River to Bruinsburg late on the 30th, and reached the battlefield near Port Gibson about 7 a. m. May 1, where Landram's (Second) brigade joined Hovey's (Twelfth) division in an attack, and was later relieved by Burbridge's (First) brigade. At daybreak, May 16, it was marching on the Raymond road toward Champions Hill, with two brigades of Blair's division, Fifteenth Army Corps, in support. After slight skirmishing in the early part of the day, the division in the afternoon joined in the pursuit of the enemy. May 17, at Big Black River Bridge, the division formed in line of battle on the left of Osterhaus, charged across the field, and captured the colors of the Sixtieth Tennessee Regiment and a number of prisoners. Burbridge's brigade reached the vicinity of Vicksburg about sunset May 18, and Landram's brigade the following morning, both taking part in the operations of the corps during that day. In the assault, May 22, Burbridge's brigade attacked the lunette on the Baldwins Ferry road, supporting Benton's brigade of Carr's (Fourteenth) division; Landram's brigade attacked the railroad redoubt, supporting Lawler's brigade of Carr's division. Its advance reached the ditch, and the colors of the Seventy-seventh Illinois were planted on the parapet of the redoubt. The position was held, under a heavy fire, until about sunset. During the siege the division held the right of the corps in the investment line (Landram's brigade on the right and Burbridge's brigade on the left), and made an approach to the lunette on the Baldwins Ferry road. The enemy used mines against the approach and burned both sap rollers, but the approach was pushed to within ten feet of the enemy's ditch and a mine started, which was not completed at the surrender.

William H. Raynor. Artillery: First Missouri Light, Battery A, Capt. George W. Schofield; Ohio Light, Second Battery, Lieut. Augustus Beach; Ohio Light, Sixteenth Battery, Lieut. Russell P. Twist. This division left Millikens Bend April 16, and on the 18th made reconnoissance in the direction of the Mississippi River near the mouth of Gilberts Bayou in search of a practicable route. With the assistance of the pioneer corps the division in four days constructed four bridges and opened 2 miles of road through the forest, thus making a new route to the Mississippi below Vicksburg. Crossing the river to Bruinsburg soon after noon of April 30, the division marched throughout the night, reaching the battlefield near Port Gibson early on the morning of May 1. McGinnis' (First) brigade took a position near the enemy's line, at right angles with the road, Slack's (Second) brigade in the rear. Moving forward about 7 a. m. in connection with Benton's brigade of Carr's, the division made an assault, carried the ridge, and captured 2 pieces of artillery, a stand of colors, and between 200 and 300 prisoners. Later in the day the advance was renewed and the enemy driven from the field. May 13 the division covered the flank and rear of the Thirteenth Army Corps, camping that night at Dillons Crossroads and the night of the 15th near Bolto.n Station. May 16 the division moved on the Clinton road, arrived near Champion's Hill about 10 o'clock a. m., and encountered the enemy, strongly posted. McGinnis' brigade formed line of battle on the right and Slack's brigade on the left. At 11 o'clock McGinnis advanced up the hill, broke the line of Cumming's brigade, captured 6 guns, and followed the broken and retreating enemy about 600 yards. Slack then advanced on the left, broke the enemy's line, and captured 5 guns. Just at this time Bowen's division came on the field, formed line of battle under fire, and with the help of fragments of regiments from the brigades of Lee and Cumming, drove the division back almost to the guns captured by McGinnis, recapturing those taken by Slack. Here a determined stand was made. The division was reinforced, first by Boomer's, and a little later by Holmes', brigade of Quinby's division, Seventeenth Army Corps, and again advanced. Several batteries of artillery, posted in a favorable position by order of General Hovey, assisted in the final rout of 15 the enemy, who was in full retreat at 4 o'clock p. m. The division remained on the battlefield to assist in caring for the dead, wounded, and prisoners. May 19 it reached Big Black River Bridge. On the 22d McGinnis' brigade moved to the Vicksburg lines, where it was joined by Slack's brigade May 24. During the siege the division held the left of the corps line of investment-Slack on the right, McGinnis on the left- and made an approach to the Square Fort.

Leaving Millikens Bend April 12, this division arrived at Perkins' plantation April 22, and crossed the river to Bruinsburg April 30. May 1, Stone's (Second) brigade came upon the enemy near Magnolia Church at 1 o'clock a. m. and the division formed line of battle. At 6.30 a. m. it advanced in line, Benton's (First) brigade on the right and Stone's brigade on the left. The right was joined by a portion of Hovey's division and made an attack that broke the line of the enemy and captured 2 guns and 200 or 300 prisoners. At the battle of Champions Hill, May 16, the division was but slightly engaged. At Big Black River Bridge, May 17, Benton's brigade formed across 1 Assumed command May 31. 2 Assumed command June 27. 17 the road, and Stone's (now commanded by Lawler) advanced on the right, vigorously assaulted the enemy, carried his line of works and captured 18 guns, 5 stand of colors, 1,421 small arms, and 1,751 prisoners. May 19 the division reached the vicinity of the enemy's works at Vicksburg, and on the 20th relieved A. J. Smith's division in the advance. In the assault, May 22, Benton's brigade advanced against the lunette on the Baldwins Ferry road, on or very near the parapet of which some of its colors were planted. Lawler's brigade advanced against the railroad redoubt, on the parapet of which the colors of the Twenty-second Iowa were placed. A few men of this regiment forced their way inside the redoubt, but those not killed were soon compelled to retire to the outside of the parapet. Part of the brigade remained in the trench until sundown, when some were captured and the others forced to fall back. During the siege the division held the right-center of the corps line of investment-its right resting at the railroad-and made an approach to the railroad redoubt. This approach was 30 feet from the enemy's ditch at the surrender. The three approaches of the Thirteenth Army Corps were under charge of Lieut. Peter C. Hains, engineer, who is given high praise for untiring energy and devotion to the work. CASUALTIES. Port Gibson, May 1, 1863. Killed. Wounded. Enlisted n - -- -men cap- AggreCommand.

Wood's (Second) brigade was on the right, Manter's (First) brigade in the center, and Thayer's (Third) brigade on the left of the division line, positions which were substantially maintained throughout the siege. May 20 and 21 were devoted to throwing up rifle pits and strengthening the position. At about 3 o'clock p. m. May 22 the division, Thayer's brigade in advance, made an assault on the enemy's line at a point about one-half mile west of the redan on the graveyard road. A few officers and men reached the foot of the parapet, where they remained until dark, when the division retired to the position already indicated, four or five hundred yards from the enemy's works, which it retained during the siege. Manter's brigade joined the expedition to Mechanicsburg May 26, but returned to its position in the investment line June 4. An approach 1 Assumed command June 13. 2Maj.

This division, under the personal direction of General Sherman, embarked on steamboats from Youngs Point, April 29, and moved to the Yazoo River for demonstration on Haynes Bluff. Returning, the division remained at Millikens Bend until May 7, when Giles A. Smith's (First) brigade and Thomas Kilby Smith's (Second) brigade marched to Hard Times, opposite Grand Gulf, crossed the Mississippi River the night of May 11, and on the 12th marched toward Jackson by the road through Willow Springs and Auburn, reaching Raymond the evening of the 15th. May 16 the brigades marched toward Edwards Station, on the lower road, with A. J. Smith's division of McClernand's corps. After the battle opened at Champion's Hill, Giles A. Smith's brigade formed on the right of the road, connecting with the left of Osterhaus. Late in the afternoon the brigades advanced in line of battle and assisted in the pursuit of the enemy. Twelve pieces of artillery and about 300 prisoners were captured during the evening and the following morning. May 17, the two brigades moved forward by Edwards Depot to Bridgeport and crossed the Big Black River at that point. May 18 they took the advance on the march to Vicksburg, and that night approached to within a few hundred yards of the enemy's works to the right and left of the graveyard road. Ewing's (Third) brigade arrived from Millikens Bend during the night and joined the division in this position, having marched 85 miles in three days. May 19 the division was formed for the assault, T. Kilby Smith's brigade on the left across the graveyard road, Giles A. Smith's in the center, Ewing's on the right, and at 2 p. m. the line advanced and planted flags at several points upon the enemy's works, but were unable to make a 1 Assumed command May 24. 23 lodgment therein. The positions gained were held until night, when the division was withdrawn. May 22 it was massed in a ravine to the left of the graveyard road, and a storming party of 150 volunteers was formed for the assault. Four batteries were placed in positions from which their fire could be concentrated on the stockade redan on the graveyard road. At 10 o'clock a. m. the signal was given and Ewing's brigade, led by the storming party, dashed forward by the flank on the road under a heavy fire. The storming party and some men of the leading regiment (Thirtieth Ohio) reached the outer slope of the redan, where the brigade headquarters flag was planted. Most of Ewing's brigade took position behind the crest of a ridge on the left of the road and about 140 yards from the enemy's line, and maintained a heavy fire on the enemy until night. Giles A. Smith's brigade took position on the left of Ewing, and in the afternoon, in connection with Ransom's brigade, McArthur's division, Seventeenth Corps, made a vigorous but unsuccessful assault on that part of the enemy's line, with T. Kilby Smith's brigade in support. This last-named brigade formed part of the expeditionary force under General Blair, and marched, May 27, to Mechanicsburg. It returned June 4, and took position on the right of the division in the investment line and made an approach to a lunette in its front. Ewing's brigade held the center of the division investment line and made an approach to the stockade redan. Giles A. Smith's brigade held the left and made an approach to a lunette in its front. All the approaches were pushed close to the works in their respective fronts and mines were started from them, but had not been charged at the surrender. CASUALTIES. Vicksburg, May 19, 1863. Killed.

This division moved from Duckport, La. (near Millikens Bend), via Richmond, May 3, to Smith's plantation on the 4th, Hard Times the 'Assumed command June 22. 2Assuinued commrand June 1. 25 7th, crossed the river to Grand Gulf the same day, and on the 8th marched to Willow Springs and on the 12th to Fourteenmile Creek. May 13, it marched in the advance to Mississippi Springs, where the enemy's pickets were encountered. At daylight, May 14, the division moved toward Jackson. On the advance of Mower's (Second) and Matthies' (Third) brigades the enemy retreated, leaving 10 pieces of artillery and 150 prisoners. May 16, at noon, the division left Jackson and marched, via Bolton and Bridgeport, to the rear of Vicksburg, where it arrived the evening of May 18. In the assault at 2 p. mn., May 19, Buckland's (First) brigade supported Blair's division, with three regiments on the right and one on the left of the graveyard road. The division took no part in the attack the forenoon of May 22. In the afternoon Mower's brigade assaulted the stockade redan on the graveyard road. The colors of the Eleventh Missouri were planted on the parapet beside the headquarters flag of Ewing's brigade. The division commander in his report says: The attack was made with the greatest bravery and impetuosity, and its failure only serves to prove that it is impossible to carry this position by storm. May 26, this brigade was detailed as part of the expeditionary force under General Blair and marched to Mechanicsburg. When this force was recalled the brigade remained in the vicinity of Haynes Bluff until June 8, when it was ordered to Youngs Point, Louisiana, and from there advanced to Richmond, where it skirmished with the enemy. Returning to Youngs Point, it was engaged in picketing the river and watching for hostile demonstrations on the Louisiana side until the end of the siege. Col. Andrew J. Weber, Eleventh Missouri Infantry, was killed on duty in the trenches opposite the city of Vicksburg. From May 23 to June 22, Buckland's and Matthies' (First and Third) brigades participated in the operations of the siege, holding a place in the investment line between the right of Blair's division and the left of Steele's. On the last-named date, under the division commander and as part of the force commanded by General Sherman, both brigades moved to Bear Creek, where they remained to the end of the siege. CASUALTIES.

May 18 the leading steamer was fired on at or near Greenville and 14 men of the Third Iowa Infantry were wounded, as reported by Colonel Brown of that regiment. The division reported at Youngs Point, May 19, and was ordered to Snyders Bluff, arriving there May 20. It left this place, May 24, and marched to take position on the extreme left of the investment line. By order of General Grant, dated May 28, it moved to the right, connected its right with McClernand's left and rested its left on or near the Halls Ferry road. During the siege the division made an approach to the outlying fort of the enemy on the east side of the Halls Ferry road. This fort, being very salient, was much exposed to attack. The enemy, conscious of this, made repeated sorties to drive off the working parties. By order of General Ord, dated June 24, the division was temporarily attached to the Thirteenth Army Corps. The positions of the respective brigades in the division investment line are not clearly shown by the official reports, which are meager. According to reports by General Lauman and by the statement in the official records of officers killed and mortally wounded, the division lost, during the siege and not covered by the casualty tables, 1 officer and 7 enlisted men killed, 1 officer and 22 enlisted men wounded, 1 officer and 5 enlisted men captured or missing. The official report of Gen. Thomas A. Taylor, ITransferred to Third Brigade June 22. 2 Assumed command June 9. 29 General Pemberton's inspector-general, also notes the capture, May 25, of 5 officers and 109 men, presumably belonging to the Forty-sixth Illinois Infantry of this division. The approach against the enemy's outlying fort on the east side of the Halls Ferry road was within 25 to 30 yards of the ditch at the surrender. Provisional Division.-Brig. Gen. NATHAN KIMBALL.

It moved to Haynes Bluff June 6, strongly fortified that point, and remained there to the end of the siege. SEVENTEENTH ARMY CORPS. Maj. Gen. JAMES B. MCPHERSON. Escort: Fourth company Ohio cavalry, Capt. John S. Foster. This corps was concentrated near Smith's plantation April 26. Leaving McArthur's (Sixth) division to guard the line of communication from Millikens Bend to Perkins' plantation (43 miles), Logan's (Third) division and Quinby's (Seventh) division moved to Hard Times Landing, the former crossing the river on the evening of April 30 and the latter on the following day. Logan's division participated in the battle at Port Gibson May 1, and, with Quinby's division in reserve, fought the battle at Raymond May 12. Both divisions reached Jackson May 14 and took part in the capture of that place, Quinby's alone being engaged. The two last-named divisions also participated in the battle of Champions Hill, May 16, and May 18 crossed Big Black River and moved toward Vicksburg, arriving before the enemy's intrenchments May 19. The corps, except Reid's (First) and Hall's (Third) brigades, McArthur's division, took part in the assaults, May 19 and May 22, and held the right-center of the investment line during the siege, its right connecting with the left of the Fifteenth Corps and its left with the right of the Thirteenth Corps. 30 Third Division.-Maj. Gen. JOHN A. LOGAN. Escort: Second Illinois Cavalry, Company A, Lieut. William B. Cummins. First Brigade, Brig. Gen. John E. Smith, Brig. Gen. Mortimer D. Leggett: Twentieth Illinois, Maj.

Lowell; Second Illinois Light, Battery L, Capt. William H. Bolton; Michigan Light, Eighth Battery, Capt. Samuel De Golyer, Lieut. Theodore W. Lockwood; Ohio Light, Third Battery, Capt. William S. Williams. While the division was crossing the Mississippi River to Bruinsburg, the night of April 30-May 1, a collision between the steamboats Horizon and Moderator resulted in the sinking of the former, the drowning of two enlisted men belonging to Battery G, Second Illinois Light Artillery, and the loss of the guns, the equipment, and most of the horses of this battery. At Port Gibson, May 1, J. E. Smith's (First) brigade attacked on the left of McClernand, and Stevenson's (Third) brigade was sent to the support of McClernand's right. Dennis' (Second) brigade was but slightly engaged. The division crossed the south fork of Bayou Pierre, May 2, marched via Willow Springs to Hankinsons Ferry, where it bivouacked three days. May 7 it moved, via Rocky Springs, toward Raymond, near which place, May 12, it sharply engaged the enemy under General Gregg. The enemy was driven from the battlefield and the division encamped that night in Raymond. May 14 the division was near Jackson. May 15 it marched via Clinton and bivouacked 7 miles west of that town. May 16 it followed Hovey's division. on the march, deployed and formed line of battle on his right, Leggett's brigade on the left of the division line, J. E. Smith's on the right of Leggett, and Stevenson's at first in reserve, but soon in line on the right of Smith. In this order the division was engaged at Champions Hill, flanking the enemy on his left and finally driving him from his position, capturing 5 guns and many prisoners. The division crossed Big Black River May 18, 1Assumed command June 3. 31 and arrived in rear of Vicksburg at 10 a. m. May 19, taking position on the right and left of the Jackson road. May 22, at 10 a. m., John E. Smith's brigade unsuccessfully attacked both curtains of the Third Louisiana redan, and Stevenson's brigade advanced to the ditch of the redoubt south of the Jackson road, Leggett's brigade being in reserve. At 2 o'clock p. m. Smith's brigade made a second unsuccessful assault upon the enemy's position. During the siege this brigade held the right of the division line, its camps being clustered about the "White House." When the mine under the Third Louisiana redan was fired, June 25, the brigade occupied the crater, was closely and sharply engaged with the enemy, and suffered severely. Leggett's brigade moved to Mechanicsburg, May 26, as part of the expeditionary force under General Blair, returning to the rear of Vicksburg June 4. June 22 the brigade, as part of a provisional division commanded by General McArthur, moved to Strauss' plantation on the Birdsong Ferry road, and thence, June 30, to Tiffin, where it constructed earthworks and remained until'Vicksburg surrendered. Stevenson's brigade, during the siege, held the left of the division line, its right resting on the Jackson road. Under the personal direction of Capt. A. Hickenlooper, corps engineer, the division made an approach to the Third Louisiana redan, on the north side of the Jackson road. This approach began east of the " White House," crossed the Jackson road five times (a branch trench running west of south from the main one, making a sixth crossing), and reached the redan against which it was directed June 22. A mine was then run under the redan, charged with 2,200 pounds of powder, and fired at 3.30 p. m. June 25. The troops rushed in and occupied the crater made by the explosion, but a parapet in the rear was successfully held by the enemy. A second mine was started June 28, from a covered gallery in the crater, and fired July 1, doing greater damage to the enemy's earthworks than atlthe first explosion. No attempt was made to occupy the new crater. On the surrender July 4, by order of General Grant, the division marched within the enemy's intrenchments, and its commander, General Logan, was assigned temporarily to the command of the city of Vicksburg. As reported by Gens. J. E. Smith and Leggett, brigade commanders, the First Brigade lost during the siege, and not covered by the casualty tables, 31 killed and 176 wounded. This does not include any losses prior to May 23. The division held the center of the corps investment line. 32 CASUALTIES. Port Gibson, May 1, 1863. Killed. Wounded.

It skirmished with the enemy at Bayou Tensas, June 9, and repulsed an attack at Goodrichs Landing June 29. Ransom's (Second) brigade marched from Grand Gulf, May 10, reached the battlefield of Champions Hill May 16, at the close of the engagement, and participated in the pursuit of the enemy. On the morning of May 18 the brigade crossed Big Black River and marched to the rear of Vicksburg. It joined in the assaults, May 19 and May 22, on the later date planting its colors near the base of the enemy's parapet. During the siege the brigade made an approach (Ransom's) to a reentrant part of the enemy's line immediately north of Glass Bayou. Hall's (Third) brigade, at the beginning of the siege, was stationed at Grand Gulf, Miss. May 20 it moved on transports to a point on the Louisiana shore 2 miles below Vicksburg, where it disembarked and marched to Youngs Point. May 21 it moved on transports to Haynes Bluff, where it remained but a few hours. It returned via Youngs Point to the landing below Vicksburg, was transported to Warrenton, disembarked, and marched 4 miles toward Yicksburg. May 22 it advanced along the Warrenton road and drove the skirmishers of the enemy within his intrenchments. May 23 the brigade moved about 3 miles to the right, but returned to its previous position, where it was relieved, May 26, by General Lauman. May 27 it joined General Blair's expedition to Mechanicsburg. June 4 it returned to the Vicksburg lines and remained there until June 23, when it moved to Strauss' plantation, and, June 27, to Fox's plantation, 4 miles from Messengers Ferry, where it remained to the end of the siege.

John B. Sanborn, left Millikens Bend April 21-25, and marched, via Richmond, Smith's plantation, and Hard Times Landing, to the point of embarkation, where it arrived May 1, and, with the exception of the Fifty-sixth Illinois Infantry, went on board transports and crossed to Bruinsburg. Here it rapidly disembarked and marched to the sound of the guns at Port Gibson, but was not engaged there. May 2 the division marched into Port Gibson, and Brig. Gen. M. M. Crocker assumed command. It crossed the south fork of Bayou Pierre in the afternoon in the advance of the corps and marched to the north fork of the same stream. The division crossed this stream next morning and moved, skirmishing with the enemy, to Hankinsons Ferry. May 5 a detachment under Colonel Boomer crossed the Big Black River and made a reconnoissance 5 miles toward Vicksburg. May 7 the division marched via Utica and reached Raymond May 12, but was not actively engaged in the battle near that place. At Jackson, May 14, the division was in advance on the Clinton road and drove the enemy from his defensive works. At Champions Hill, May 16, the division bore a conspicuous part. All the brigades were closely engaged; those of Holmes and Boomer (Second and Third) came to the support of Hovey at the critical time, turned the tide of battle, and suffered severe loss. May 17 General Quinby relieved General Crocker in the command of the division. Boomer's brigade arrived at Vicksburg May 19 and skirmished with the enemy. Sanborn's (First) brigade and Holmes's brigade (the latter having been left on the battlefield at Champions Hill) arrived on the 20th. May 22 the division was in line of battle on the immediate left of Logan's division, but did not take an active part until after noon, when Sanborn's and Boomer's brigades were ordered to the support of Carr's division (Thirteenth Army Corps), 2 miles to the left. Sanborn's brigade moved against the enemy just north of the Baldwin's Ferry road, reinforcing Burbridge's brigade, there closely engaged. It held its position three hours under a heavy fire, retired under orders, and took from the ground a gun of the Chicago Mercantile Battery that had been pushed by hand within a few yards of the enemy's lunette. Boomer's brigade was ordered to assault the enemy's line between the Baldwin's Ferry road and the railroad. It advanced over the principal ridge, when its commander, Colonel Boomer, was killed while reconAssumed command June 6. 2Temporarily attached to Kimball's division, Sixteenth Army Corps, June 6. 38 noitering and no further advance was made. The brigade was withdrawn after dark, bringing away its killed and wounded. Holmes' brigade was in reserve in the first position of the division, and late in the evening was ordered to the support of General Osterhaus, but was not engaged and returned the next day to its position with the division. During the siege the division held the left of the corps line of investment-Sanborn's brigade on the left, Holmes's brigade in the center, and Boomer's brigade on the right of the division line. Sanborn's brigade joined the expedition to Mechanicsburg May 26, and returned to Vicksburg June 4. June 24, Boomer's brigade, as part of the provisional division commanded by General McArthur, moved to the vicinity of Tiffin, intrenched, and remained to the end of the siege. Upon the removal of this brigade the ground vacated was occupied by Sanborn's brigade. CASUALTIES. Jackson, May 14, 1863. Killed. Wounded. Enlisted Command, men cap- Aggreommand Officers.

This division arrived, June 13, at Youngs Point on transports from the Department of the Missouri, and took position, June 15, on the extreme left of the investment line, its right connecting with the left of Lauman's division, on or near the Halls Ferry road, and its left resting on the Mississippi River, below Vicksburg. Orme's (Second) 41 brigade held the right and Vandever's (First) brigade the left of the division line. The reported loss of the division from June 15 to July 4, inclusive, as shown by the official reports of commanding officers, and not included in the casualty tables, was 5 enlisted men killed, 1 officer and 15 enlisted men wounded. A short parallel was completed 200 yards from the enemy's line, and an approach started from it against the redoubt immediately west of the Warrenton road. This approach was 100 yards from the enemy's ditch at the surrender. Unattached cavalry, Col. Cyrus Bussey: Fifth Illinois, Maj. Thomas A. Apperson; Third Iowa (6 companies), Maj. Oliver H. P. Scott; Second Wisconsin, Col. Thomas Stephens. Two of the regiments in this command (Fifth Illinois Cavalry and Third Iowa Cavalry) seem to have been at Helena, Ark., May 29. The other regiment (Second Wisconsin Cavalry) was at Memphis, Tenn., at that time. A detachment of the Fifth Illinois participated in a skirmish at Mechanicsburg June 4. Colonel Bussey's headquarters was at Haynes Bluff. June 26 he was sent by General Sherman toward Mechanicsburg. June 29 he was ordered by General Sherman to mass his command on Bear Creek, and was charged to especially watch the lower Benton road and the ford below Birdsong. First Lieut. W. M. Wilson (Forty-third Tennessee Infantry, Confederate), reports the capture, June 25, at Ellisville, Miss., of Captain Mann, a first lieutenant, and 35 enlisted men, all of the Fifth Illinois Cavalry. June 25 three companies of the Fifth Illinois, under Major Farnam, joined the expedition from Snyders Bluff to Greenville, commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Nasmith, Twenty-fifth Wisconsin Infantry.

The troops enumerated in this command appear to have been assembled from time to time between May 19 and June 12 and their selection determined by necessity or convenience. No orders of assignment either for the regiments or for the district or brigade commanders 42 appear in the Official Records. The command included a brigade of colored troops in process of organization during the siege. In connection with the two regiments composing General Reid's brigade of the Sixth Division, Seventeenth Army Corps, and, after about June 10, Mower's brigade, Third Division, Fifteenth Army Corps, the command guarded the Louisiana shore of the Mississippi River from Lake Providence to the landing below Vicksburg. At Millikens Bend, June 7, the Twenty-third Iowa Infantry was present and bore the brunt of the fighting on the Federal side. The Ninth and Eleventh Louisiana Infantry (colored) were the other regiments engaged. The loss (not given in the casualty tables) was 11 officers and 90 enlisted men killed, 17 officers and 268 enlisted men wounded, 2 officers and 264 enlisted men captured or missing-26 of the killed and 60 of the wounded belonging to the Twenty-third Iowa. The gunboats Choctaw and Lexington assisted in repulsing the attack of the enemy. At Lake Providence, June 9, 300 of the Eighth Louisiana Regiment (colored) were present and assisted General Reid's force in repulsing an attack. Mississippi Marine Brigade.-Brig. Gen. ALFRED W. ELLETT. This was a semi-independent command, consisting of artillery, infantry, and cavalry, and a fleet for their transportation. At its organization in April, 1862, it consisted of about 350, officers and men, including boat crews, using nine small light-armored boats, mostly fitted as rams. One of these vessels was captured and one sunk by the enemy before the beginning of the Vicksburg campaign. The brigade was in the vicinity of Vicksburg at the opening of the campaign and for some time previously, but April 5, by direction of Admiral Porter, went to the Tennessee River. Returning, it reached the fleet above Vicksburg May 29. June 14 the brigade joined General Mower's expedition to Richmond, La., and skirmished with the enemy, losing 3 wounded. Under date of June 20 Admiral Porter reported that two 12-pounder rifled howitzers, placed by the brigade on the Louisiana side, had much annoyed the enemy for two or three days. The night of June 19, by order of General Ellett, work was begun on a casemate fort on the point opposite the city of Vicksburg. The fort was completed in four days, being covered with one thickness of railroad iron. A 20-pounder Parrott gun was placed in it and fire opened on the city the morning of June 23. The enemy promptly responded, firing 77 rounds from five different guns. The fort was further strengthened by adding another thickness of railroad iron. Fire from the- Parrott gun in it was maintained until the end of the siege, 98 rounds in all being fired. Considerable damage to the enemy, especially by stopping work at his foundry and machine shop, was done. The fort was repeatedly struck, but without material damage to it 43 and without loss to the brigade. The fort was erected and the gun put in position under the direction of Lieut. Col. George E. Currie. The gun was commanded and sighted by Captain Groshon in person. June 25-30 a detachment of the brigade, on the steamer John Rains, formed part of an expedition to Greenville, under command of Lieutenant-Colonel Nasmith, Twenty-fifth Wisconsin Infantry. June 30 the brigade lost at Goodrichs Landing, 1 officer (Captain Wright), killed. A ruling of the Judge-Advocate-General, dated June 11, 1863, seems to make this brigade " a special contingent and portion of the Army, and not of the Navy," but as late as July 23 General Grant wrote "They [the officers and men of the Marine Brigade] are not subject to my orders." PORTER'S FLEET. Rear-Admiral DAVID D. PORTER. The campaign and siege of Vicksburg is the only great operation of the civil war in which there was active, continuous, and successful cooperation between the two arms of the service. General Grant is authority for the statement that without the assistance of the Navy the campaign undertaken by his army could not have been successfully made with twice the number of men engaged and would not have been contemplated. The most perfect harmony existed between the commanding officers of the respective branches of the service, and the navy rendered all possible aid throughout the campaign. Its first important duty was to provide supplies, ammunition, and means of ferriage at a point below Yicksburg. To accomplish this it was necessary to run by the river batteries, consisting of 31 pieces of heavy artillery and 13 of light, occupying commanding positions along more than four miles of shore line. The vessels selected for this service were given such added protection as could be devised with logs of wood and bales of wet hay, and, with lights out and every precaution against being seen or heard, started from the mouth of the Yazoo River at 9.15 p. m. April 16, in the following order: The flagship Benton with the tug Ivy lashed alongside, the Lafayette and the ram General Price lashed together, the Louisville, Mound City, Pittsburg, Carondelet, and Tuscumbia-the transports Silver Wave, Forest Queen, and Henry Clay, laden with stores, being just in advance of the Tuscumbia. Each vest sel except the Benton had a barge of coal lashed to her starboard side. They were successively under fire nearly an hour, and although repeatedly struck by heavy missiles, all except the transport Henry Clay (which was burned and sunk), anchored safely below Warrenton at about 2 a. m. April 17. During the passage 1 officer and 15 men 44 were wounded. The gunboats fired shell and grape while passing the town and the main batteries, the crews working their guns without light on the deck. April 29 after the advance divisions of the army had reached the west bank of the Mississippi River at Perkins' plantation, Louisiana, the Benton, Lafayette, Louisville, Tusculnmba, Mound City, Carondelet, and Pittsburg made a gallant attempt to silence the batteries of the enemy at Grand Gulf, recently very strongly fortified. The engagement began about 8 a. m. and continued for five hours. Every vessel was struck repeatedly and some of them considerably injured, although none were seriously disabled. Failing fully to accomplish the undertaking, the vessels moved out of range, but renewed the attack about 7 p. m. for the purpose of permitting the transport fleet, now augmented by five that were sent down from above during the night of April 22, to pass the batteries, after which they were joined below by the armed vessels. The loss was 1 officer and 18 men killed, 6 officers and 50 men wounded. April 30 and May 1 the gunboats and transports carried the Thirteenth Army Corps and two divisions of the Seventeenth across the river, landing them at Bruinsburg. Later they carried Ransom's and Hall's brigades of the Seventeenth Corps and the Fifteenth Corps to the east bank of the river. This service of the navy was an indispensable condition of General Grant's plan of campaign. He was thereby enabled to turn the enemy's flank and begin the series of operations which resulted in the capture of Pemberton's army and the city of Vicksburg. April 30 an attack was made upon the fortifications of the enemy at Haynes Bluff by a naval squadron under command of Lieut. Commander K. A. Breese, consisting of the Tyler, Choctaw, De Kalb, Signal, Roneo, Linden, Petrel, and Blackhawk, with three 13-inch mortars in tow of tugs. This attack was made by order of General Grant as a feint to cover his operations below, and -in conjunction with a demonstration on the land by Blair's division of the Fifteenth Army Corps under the personal direction of General Sherman. The navy was under fire for three and one-half hours on April 30 and renewed the attack May 1 without loss on either day. May 18, upon hearing firing in the rear of Vicksburg, Admiral Porter sent Lieutenant-Commander Breese, with the De Kaalb, Choctaw, Linden, Romeo, Petrel, and Forest Rose, up the Yazoo River, and succeeded in opening communication with General Grant and furnishing a much-needed supply of provisions. Lieutenant-Commander Walker, on the De fKalb, pushed on up to Haynes Bluff, which had been evacuated by the enemy and was in the hands of a detachment of the Fourth Iowa Cavalry. A large quantity of military stores and equipage, including 13 heavy guns, was found there and taken possession of by the navy. 45 May 20, Lieut. Commander John G. Walker, with the De Kalb, Choctaw, Forest Rose, Linden, and Petrel, left Siyders Bluff for an expedition to Yazoo City, which was reached, May 21, and found evacuated. Three vessels in process of construction were destroyed, with material, shops, and machinery, and 115 soldiers in hospital were captured and paroled. The expedition returned to the mouth of the Yazoo May 23. At Liverpool Landing the fleet was fired upon by a masked force of field guns and riflemen, losing 1 man killed and 8 wounded. In response to a request from General Grant, the Benton, Xound City, Carondelet, and liuscumbia were ordered by Admiral Porter, May 22, to attack the batteries of the enemy on the river front. The attack was made upon the hill and water batteries below the city, and was vigorously sustained for two hours and until nearly noon, a number of the enemy's batteries being temporarily silenced. The vessels were repeatedly struck but not disabled. The fleet lost 1 officer and 3 men wounded. May 24, Lieut. Commander John G. Walker, with the De Kalb, Signal, Forest Rose, Linden, and Petrel, started on a second expedition up the Yazoo River. With the three boats last-named he pushed on to within 15 miles of Fort Pemberton and burned four of the enemy's steamers. In a skirmish next morning 2 men on the Petrel were wounded. Three more of the enemy's steamers were burned in tributary bayous on the return to the mouth of the Yazoo, which was reached May 31. May 27, at 8 a. m., the Benton, iound City, Carondelet, and Sterlinng Price renewed the attack on the lower batteries of the enemy along the river front. The engagement lasted an hour and fifteen minutes, with slight injury to the boats and no loss to the crews. At the same time an attack was made by the Cincinnati, from above Vicksburg, upon the batteries at that end of the enemy's line. She was repeatedly struck by heavy missiles, her masts and flagstaff were soon shot away, and she was fatally. injured by plunging shots from the hills. Running to the north shore of the great bend, the Cincinnati sunk in 18 feet of water, her flag still floating from the stump of the mast, where it had been nailed during action. The loss was 3 men killed, 16 wounded (2 mortally), 1 captured and paroled, 14 drowned; total, 34. Lieut. George M. Bache, commanding the Cincinnati, and the other officers and men of the vessel were highly commended for coolness and bravery by Admiral Porter, by General Sherman, who witnessed the engagement, and by the Secretary of the Navy. During the entire campaign the navy was alert in patrolling the river, preventing communication with the enemy, and assisting the land forces whenever possible. It rendered efficient service in the attack upon Millikens Bend and Youngs Point, June 7, and again in the attack at 46 Goodrich's Landing June 29, but after May 2T little occurred aside from the routine of siege operations. In the latter the mortar boats, under command of Gunner Eugene Mack, and later of Ensign Miller, bore an important part. Anchored in front of the city, under the east bank of the western channel of the river, for forty-two days and nights the 11 and 13-inch shells from these boats were continually falling in all parts of the beleaguered territory, and proved both annoying and demoralizing. Thirteen heavy cannon, from 32-pounder to 9-inch guns, were landed from the fleet and placed in position along the investment line. Lieut. Commander T. 0. Selfridge, Acting Masters C. B. Dahlgren and T. F. Reed, and as many officers and men as could be spared were sent with the guns. In addition, three heavy guns, a 10-inch, 9-inch, and 100-pounder rifle, under the command of Lieutenant-Commander Ramsay, were placed on scows in front of the city and north of the mortar fleet, enfilading the enemy's defenses in front of General Sherman's right.

This division was in position, April 24, between Warrenton and the lower works at Vicksburg. It furnished one brigade (Tracy's) at the battle of Port Gibson, May 1. ~ May 7 the division was on the Hall's Paroled as the Thirty-first Regiment, and so known prior to June, 1863. 48 49 Ferry road to Warrenton, and on the 11th joined Bowen in the advance. May 15 it reached a position on the Raymond road a few miles east of Edwards Depot. At Champions Hill, May 1P, Barton's (First) brigade was, after the withdrawal of Reynolds's brigade to guard the division train, on the right of the division line as first formed. It remained inactive, save an occasional change of position, till near noon, when it, moved at double quick to the left to support General Lee. It was then on the left of the division line, and in this position was sharply engaged with the enemy, by whom it was nearly surrounded. It fell back in some confusion, crossed Bakers Creek at the bridge on the middle Raymond road, and held that position until the army had crossed at the ford below. After the withdrawal of Reynolds' brigade to guard the train, Cumming's (Second)' brigade held the center of the division line, May 16.'and was formed on two sides of a right angle, the right wing facing nearly east and the left wing nearly north. One regiment and four companies of another formed the left wing. In this position the brigade received the first attack of the enemy, which was delivered near the angle, broke the brigade line and compelled it Po fall back in some confusion. A portion of the brigade rallied and assisted in resisting the enemy until about 4 p. m., when it joined the retreat across Bakers Creek at the lower ford and bridge. Lee's Third) 2 brigade held the left of the division line as formed after the withdrawal of Reynolds, and faced east. By 8 o'clock a. m. its skirnishers were engaged on both the Clinton and Raymond roads. About 9 o'clock a. m. the brigade marched, under fire and by succesive movements, by the left flank about a half mile, filed left, marched 'early due west for a little over the length of the brigade, and formed mne of battle facing north. The enemy's attack fell upon the brigade 'i this position, which it tnaintained for some time. When forced to all back, it formed on a parallel ridge south of its former position, tnd, later, formed line again south of the Raymond road. At the Jlose of the battle it crossed Bakers Creek by the lower ford and bridge. General Lee had three horses shot under him. The division pommander reported: It was the fortune of General Lee to open and bear the brunt of the battle of Bakers Xreek. Early in the morning of May 16 Reynolds's (Fourth) brigade left ts position at the left of the division line and marched toward Brownsrille as guard of the division train. The train was parked some dis4nce west of Bakers Creek and remained there until 3 o'clock p. m., yhen it moved toward Edwards Depot under guard of two regiments infantry and a section of artillery. The remainder of the brigade 1 Called Third Brigade in official reports of brigade commander. 2 Called Second Brigade in official reports of brigade commander. 6353-01 4 50 started for Bakers Creek bridge in response to a call from General Barton for reenforcements. On approaching the bridge his troops were found in retreat and Colonel Reynolds was ordered to fall back to Edwards Depot. The rapid advance of the enemy, however, separated him from the retreating army, and he successfully crossed the Big Black River with the train at Bridgeport. At Big Black River Bridge, May 17, the division was on the west side of the river, and at 10 a. m. was ordered to retreat to the fortifications around Vicksburg, which were reached by the head of the column about 3 o'clock p. m. May 18 the division took position in the line of defense, resting its left at the railroad, connecting with General Forney's right, and its right at the redoubt on the west side of the Warrenton road. It was also held responsible for the defense of the river front for an indefinite distance between its right and the city of Vicksburg. Barton's brigade held the right, Reynolds's the right-center, Cumming's the left-center, and Lee's the left of the division line. The assault of the enemy, May 22, fell heavily upon the left of the division line, being especially directed against the railroad redoubt at its extreme left. The ditch and outer face of the parapet were occupied by the enemy and a small party entered the redoubt, but was soon compelled to retire to the outer slope of the parapet. The redoubt remained unoccupied several hours, but was retaken late in the afternoon bv a detachment from Waul's Texas Legion. The division maintained the position above indicated to the end of the siege. Saps were pushed by the enemy against the railroad redoubt, Fort Garrott, and the salient redoubt immediately east of the Halls Ferry road. These were resisted by countermines, and in several instances by sorties made by detachments from Cumming's and Reynolds' brigades. Leaving 300 of his troops at Fort Pemberton, Colonel Waul moved, May 4, to Snyder's Mill with the remainder of the Texas Legion. May 14 he reported to General Baldwin at Whittaker's, on the Hall's Ferry road. Colonel Waul reports that the portion of the legion which entered the city, May 17, and was present during the defense, consisted of eleven companies of infantry, one company of cavalry, a detachment of mounted scouts, a battalion of zouaves attached to the command, and Captain Wall's battery of artillery-the latter being ordered to report to General Forney, under whose command it remained during the defense. The afternoon of May 19, by order, the command reported to General Stevenson and was placed in the rear of General Lee's brigade, that being the most assailable and threatened point on General Stevenson's line. May 22 two companies of the legion, under command of Maj. 0. Steele, were sent to support the troops in the railroad redoubt, and later volunteered to recapture the work after its temporary abandonment. A detachment consisting of about one-half of each company, under Capt. L. Bradley and Lieut. 51 J. Hogue, was accepted, and, accompanied by Lieut. Col. E. W. Pettus, Twentieth Alabama, retook the redoubt, captured a stand of colors, and sent it to Colonel Waul, by whom it was transmitted to General Lee with a note. During the defense the command was distributed in the rifle pits and forts, forming nightly scouting parties, parties of reconnaissance, and supporting the working parties and pickets. Colonel Waul reported Assistant Adjutant-General Popendieck and Aid-de-Camp Simmons killed May 22, but their names do not appear in the official list, " Officers reported killed." The Botetourt (Virginia) Artillery was closely engaged at Port Gibson, May 1, where it lost 4 of its guns. At the battle of Champions Hill, May 16, its 2 remaining guns were posted on top of the hill near the angle in the line of Cumming's brigade. They were captured early in the battle by the advance of McGinnis' brigade, which broke the line at the angle. CASUALTIES. Port Gibson, May 1, 1863. Command. Killed. Wounded. Missing. Total.

At this date it occupied the line along the Yazoo River from Haynes Bluff to the Mississippi River, including the approach by Chickasaw Bayou. April 30 the division met the feint attack of General Sherman and the gunboats at Haynes Bluff. The brigade of General Hebert remained in this position, to May 17, occupying the entire line above indicated after the withdrawal, May 2, of General Moore's brigade to the vicinity of Warrenton. May 18 the division took position in the center of the line of defense, connecting on its left with M. L. Smith's division at the graveyard road and with that of Stevenson at the railroad on its right. Moore's brigade held the right and IHebert's the left of the division line. Twenty-seven pieces of artillery, mostly light, were in 1 Batteries A, C, D, E, G, and I. Battery L (Vaiden Artillery), reported in Higgins's command, and Batteries B, F, and K, at Port Hudson, La. 53 position on its line. Three or four siege guns were added later. May 19 three regiments and one battalion of Hebert's brigade repelled three several attacks on the left, two colors of the enemy being abandoned within 10 feet of the works, but not taken on account of the severe fire of the enemy's sharpshooters. May 22 the left of Hebert's brigade, at and near the graveyard road, again sustained three distinct and serious assaults, and repulsed each with severe loss to the enemy. May 22 the center of the division, immediately on right and left of the Jackson road, was twice vigorously assaulted. The enemy succeeded in getting into the ditch here, but was driven out with loss by Hebert's right regiment, assisted by Moore's left and by the Sixth Missouri, of Cockrell's brigade. During the day two determined assaults, one at 10 o'clock a. m. and one late in the afternoon, were made on the right of Moore's line, and especially directed against the salient lunette immediately south of the Baldwins Ferry road and the earthworks adjacent to it. The afternoon assault was the more determined, the enemy coming up and even into the outer ditch of the lunette, but being finally repelled by its defenders, the Second Texas, assisted by the Forty-second Alabama on the right and the Thirtyseventh Alabama on the left. Two stands of colors fell into the hands of the Second Texas. June 2, Green's brigade, Bowen's division, was interposed between the left of Forney and M. L. Smith's right, thereby shortening Hebert's line, which closed to the right and rested its left about midway between the graveyard road and Glass Bayou. June 8, Lieutenant-Colonel Russell, Third Louisiana, succeeded in burning the cotton bales placed on a car, under cover of which the enemy had been advancing his works on the Jackson road. The cotton was fired by wrapping musket balls in tow steeped in turpentine and firing them into the bales. The enemy pushed an approach close against the redan immediately. north of the Jackson road, and ran a mine under the parapet. The mine was fired, June 25, and the enemy occupied the crater made by the explosion. A parapet immediately in its rear was gallantly and successfully defended by the Third Louisiana and supporting regiments. July 1 another mine was fired at the same point, but the enemy made no attempt to occupy the new crater, and gained no advantage except the partial destruction of the redan. The enemy also made close approaches against the lunette on the Baldwins Ferry road, which were resisted and much retarded by burning his sap rollers and by countermines. 54 Return of casualties in Forey's division during the siege of Vicksburg.

Baldwin's brigade, of this division, marched from its camp near Vicksburg, April 29, arriving on the battlefield at Port Gibson just before noon of May 1, where it found Bowen's forces falling back before superior numbers. The brigade made a brave but unsuccessful attempt to restore the battle, but was compelled to retire. May 4 it returned to Vicksburg, next day moved 5 miles out on the Baldwins Ferry road, and thence, May 10, to a point on the Warrenton and Halls Ferry road, 10 miles from Vicksburg. May 15 it was ordered to Mount Albans, and May 17 moved to Big Black River Bridge. The Fourth Mississippi crossed to the east side, where it was temporarily attached to Vaughn's brigade, which had been in the trenches here since May 13. The latter brigade, thus reinforced, was driven from the position by a charge of the enemy, losing heavily in prisoners. The remaining regiments of Baldwin's brigade covered the crossing of the troops from the east side of the river, both brigades falling back to Vicksburg, where the division was assigned to the line of defense north of the city and between the graveyard road and the river front, a distance of about 1 miles. Shoup's brigade was on the right, Baldwin's in the center, and Vaughn's on the left of the division line. May 19 the enemy vigorously assaulted the right of the division (Shoup) on the graveyard road, and on May 22 repeated the assault at that point with increased force, and assaulted at a point a half mile to the left. Both assaults were repulsed with severe loss to the assailants. Five approaches against the division line were begun by the enemy, two of which (Ewing's against the redan on the graveyard road and Lightburn's against a lunette to the left of this redan) were pushed close and mines from them run under the ditch and parapet. Countermines were opposed to these mines, considerably delaying the enemy's progress. At the redan a countermine was fired the night of June 26, destroying the enemy's sap roller and damaging his approach. Two organizations of Mississippi State troops, the Fifth Regiment and Third Battalion, not mustered into the Confederate service, but subject to the orders of General Pemberton and by him placed under the command of General Vaughn, are enumerated with the division and rendered efficient service during the siege. No losses during the siege for Vaughn's brigade, Baldwin's brigade, or the Mississippi State troops are shown in the casualty tables. From the official reports of commanding officers it appears that Vaughn lost 8 killed and 22 wounded from May 30 to the end of the defense; that Lieut. 1 Under Vaughn's command. 56 Col. Madison Rogers, Seventeenth Louisiana (Baldwin's brigade), was killed May 20, and is not reported in official list "Officers reported killed;" that Baldwin had 2 killed and 5 wounded June 20; that 3 were killed and 28 wounded in the Mississippi State troops, and that 3 were wounded in the Fourteenth Mississippi Light Artillery Battalion (attached) on dates given.

One infantry regiment and two batteries of this division were engaged in the defense of Grand Gulf at the bombardment, April 29. The loss here, not covered by casualty tables, was 3 killed and 18 wounded, Col. William Wade, division chief of artillery, being among 1 Including the Fourth Missouri by consolidation. 57 the killed. Green's (Second) brigade was in position on the Rodney road near Port Gibson, and received the first fire from the advancing enemy at about 12.30 a. m. May 1. At daybreak the attack was renewed, flanking the brigade and compelling it to fall back with the loss of 2 pieces of artillery. Later three regiments and two batteries of Cockrell's (First) brigade joined in the battle, but the attack of the enemy in superior force, though stubbornly resisted, compelled Bowen, just before dark, to retire from the field with loss of 4 guns of the Botetourt (Virginia) Artillery and a number of prisoners. The division was at Bovina May 7, and on the 11th moved toward Edwards Depot. On the night of May 15 it bivouacked near Bakers Creek, and early in the morning of the 16th held the center in the line of battle at Champions Hill as first formed on the cross-road between the Clinton and Raymond roads. About 2 o'clock the division made a gallant charge, recaptured 4 guns of Waddell's battery, and seemed for a time to restore the broken fortune of the day. On retiring from the field, at about 4 o'clock p. m., the division took position on the left bank of Bakers Creek for the purpose of covering the crossing of Loring's division. That command, however, did not cross, and Bowen moved to Big Black River Bridge, where, on the 17th, the division occupied the rifle pits north of the railroad, Cockrell's brigade on the right and Green's brigade on the left. About 8 a. m. the enemy made a determined charge, capturing a considerable part of Green's brigade and driving the remainder of the division in some confusion and with loss to the west side of the river. Upon reaching the Vicksburg intrenchments the division was at first placed in reserve. During the assault, May 19, Cockrell's brigade rendered material. assistance to the brigades of Shoup and Hebert on the graveyard road. May 22, Green's brigade assisted Moore's brigade in repelling the assaults on its front, while Cockrell again gallantly aided in repulsing the attacks at the graveyard road. June 2, Green's brigade was placed in the line of defense south of the graveyard road, connecting with Hebert's brigade of Forney's division on the right and with Shoup's brigade of Smith's division on the left, where it remained to the close of the defense. June 27 General Green was killed while on duty in the trenches and Colonel Dockery, Nineteenth Arkansas, assumed command of the Second Brigade. Cockrell's brigade continued to act as reserve, assisting in repulsing the assault at the Third Louisiana redan, June 25, and lending aid whenever and wherever called for. 58 CASUALTIES.

It was charged with the defense of the river front. Its line of batteries for that purpose extended from the mouth of Mint Spring Bayou on the north to the redoubt on the west side of the Warrenton road, at which the right of the exterior line of defense ended. Colonel Higgins enumerates the guns on his line at the beginning of the defense as follows: Eight 10-inch columnbiads, one 9-inch Dahlgren, one 8-inch columbiad, one 7.44-inch Blakely, one 7-inch Brooks, one 6.4-inch Brooks, three smoothbore 42-pounders, two smoothbore 32-pounders, eight banded and unbanded 32-pounder rifles, one 18-pounder rifle, one 20-pounder Parrott, one Whitworth, one 10-inch mortar, one 1The troops in this command paroled as of Moore's brigade. 2Bond's, Bruce's, Butler's, Capers', Grayson's, Haynes', Lamon's, and Robertson's companies. 3Barrow's, Grandpre's, and McCrory's companies. 4P.

These batteries were divided into three commands, as follows: The upper batteries, from Fort Hill to Glass bayou, were worked by the First Tennessee Artillery, under Col. Andrew Jackson, jr. The center batteries, or those immediately on the city front, were under charge of Maj. F. N. Ogden, Eighth Louisiana Artillery Battalion, to whose command was attached Capt. S. C. Bains' company of Vaiden Light Artillery. The lower batteries were in charge of the First Louisiana Artillery, under Lieut. Col. D. Beltzhoover. A portion of the Twenty-third (Twenty-second) Louisiana Volunteers was joined to Lieut. Col. Beltzhoover's command. The evening of May 19 the enemy opened fire upon the upper 4-gun water battery, commanded by Maj. F. W. Hoadley, First Tennessee Artillery, and rendered it temporarily untenable. During the night traverses were erected, affording protection to the men at the guns. The enemy also, on May 19, opened a heavy fire from three ironclads on Capt. W. C. Capers' 10-inch columbiad at the left of the line. At daylight on the morning of the 20th the enemy opened fire upon the city and batteries with seven mortars placed under the bank of the river on the Louisiana shore. Three of his ironclads also shelled the lower batteries at long range. May 22, at 9 a. m., four ironclads and one wooden gunboat engaged the lower batteries and were repulsed after an engagement of one and one-half hours. May 23, 11 of the light pieces on the river front were ordered to the rear line of defense, and were there served during the remainder of the defense by detachments from the command. From May 24 to May 26 the 8-inch siege howitzer, one smoothbore $2-pounder, the 20-pounder Parrott, and the Whitworth gun were removed to the rear line of defense, with the detachments serving them. May 27 the enemy's gunboat Cincinnati attacked the upper batteries and was sunk after an action of thirty minutes. May 28 the 18-pounder rifled gun was sent to the rear line of defense in charge of Capt. L. B. Haynes's company (E), First Louisiana Artillery. June 1 a large fire broke out in the city, close upon the magazine of the Whig office battery, which was at one time in great danger. The ammunition was moved to a more secure position. From June 2 to 8 two of the field pieces were turned over to Gen. M. L. Smith to be placed in the rear line of defense. June 12 the 10 -inch mortar was ordered placed in General Forney's line of defense. It was manned by a detachment from Company G, First Louisiana Artillery, under Lieut. C. A. Conrad. June 21 the enemy mounted a 100-pounder Parrott on the Louisiana shore under the bank of the river, at a point about five hundred yards above the mortar boats. It opened upon the city during the evening, doing much damage. June 22 to 27 firing from the enemy's guns on the Louisiana shore was kept up with great vigor. The guns of the command replied with delibera 61 tion, but in consequence of the timber masking the batteries it was difficult to arrive at satisfactory results. June 29 or 30 the mortar was brought from the rear and remounted in its old position in the redoubt on the extreme left of the line, where it was successfully used in driving off sharpshooters. In addition to the other guns on the Louisiana shore, the enemy opened two small Parrott guns close to the bank in front of the city. July 2 and 3 heavy firing from all points. At 4 p. m. on the 3d the command opened fire all along its line, and at 5 p. m. the last gun was fired by the river batteries in defense of Vicksburg. Colonel Higgins makes no exact statement of the loss of the command in killed and wounded during the defense, but reports: " It will probably not amount to more than 30. Among the killed was Maj. F. W. Hoadley, First Tennessee Heavy Artillery, who commanded the upper water battery. Miscellaneous: Fifty-fourth Alabama (detachment), Lieut. Joel P. Abney; City Guards, Capt. E. B. Martin; Signal Corps, Capt. C. A. King. The detachment of the Fifty-fourth Alabama, by order of General Pemberton dated April 15, 1863, was assigned to Buford's brigade, Loring's division. It seems to have fallen back into Vicksburg after the battle of Champions Hill, May 16.

HUTCHINSON, Assistant Adjutant-General. JOHNSTON'S ARMY. Gen. JOSEPH E. JOHNSTON. This army was assembled with the hope that its commander might be able to raise the siege of Vicksburg. Its headquarters were established at Jackson, but General Johnston was at Canton much of the time and occasionally at other points. July 1 the amy was being concentrated along the line of the Big Black River. July 3, General Johnston was near Birdsong Ferry and wrote General Pemberton that he hoped to attack about July 7 and that Pemberton's cooperation would be necessary. On learning of the surrender of Vicksburg, General Johnston withdrew the army to Jackson. The organization of this army as here given is obtained from the abstract of return dated June 25, 1863, which is given below. The names of the commanding officers, except as to Loring's division, are taken from the Organization of the Army of the Department of Mississippi and East Louisiana, dated July 30, 1863. 6353-01 5 66 Abstract from return of the army in Mississippi under the immediate command of Gen.

May 15 the division was in advance in the movement of the army from Edwards Depot, and it held the right of the line at Champions Hill May 16. The first shots of the battle were fired by the skirmishers in front of its line, but the division was not actively engaged until late in the afternoon, when it did good service in covering the retreat of the men of Bowen's and Stevenson's divisions to and across the lower ford and bridge over Bakers Creek. Deciding that his crossing could not safely be made at this ford, after a persistent effort to find a lower one and at about midnight, General Loring determined to abandon the attempt to reach Vicksburg.
