IXTRODUCTORY.
Althouiili many years have clapped since the close of the ^lexican
War, aud a mucli greater period of time since the Bhick Hawk War,
the archives in the Adjutant-Gcnerars oifice have shown no record of
the services of our soldiers in either of these wars. In fact, excepting
the meagre and occasional rolls of the militia and riflemen, deposited by
Governor Edwards' heirs some years ago, there has been until quit^ a
recent date no record of the service of any Illinois soldiers in this office
prior to the late War of the Kehellion. The organization of the society
of the "Veterans of the ]\[exican, Black Hawk and Florida wars," in
1ST4, revived an interest in this subject, and the members have, at their
annual reunions since that date, agitated the subject with more or less
etfect, until they have, no doubt, largely aided in securing their demands
in the present publication. In 18T7, Hon. Cornelius Hourke, a mcm-
lier of the House of Representatives, from Menard county, otfered a bill
to authorize the Governor to employ a clerk to transcribe these records
from the ofTicial rolls of the War Department. This, however, did not
become a law. This bill was, no doubt, offered in response to the action
of the "^Mexican War Veteran Association." which, at the September
meeting ])revious. Ju'ld at Springfield, had ])assed tlie following resolu-
tion:
Uesolvpd. Tli.U it is tlie sense of the Mexican War Veterans, now in session at the
State capital, tliat a commission slioulcl be appointed by the next Legislature of
Illinois, with instiMictions to procure from the archives at Washington, D. C, all In-
formation, statistical and otherwise, relative to the operations of the troops from
Illinois, and that said information be placid on tile in the .Vdjutant-Generars office
in this State.
The Legislature, in IS';!), added to the general a]ipropriation l)ill a
section authorizing the Governor to a])])oint a clerk to go to Washing-
ion and transcril)e all the records, of botli volunteer and regular soldiers
from Illinois, in the Black Hawk or Mexican wars, and appropriated
llie sum of five hundred dollars for the inirpose. (Laws ISTi), p. 30.)
In pursuance of this fact. Governor Culloin apjtointed Col. Ferris Fore-
man, of Vandalia, late the Colonel of Third Regiment Illinois volun-
teers, and the only surivivjng Colonel of the ^lexican War, to that duty.
Col. Foreman ])roceeded to Washington, and in his report to the Gov-
ernor, under date of ])eceml)er 1(5, 1ST!), states that 'he was denied the
])rivilege of access to the records by the Adjutant-(Jeneral, under the
standing orders and regulations of the War I)e]iartment, and reported
that it would be necessary to have a resolution ])assed ])y Congress be-
fore access could be had to the rolls on file in the War Department.
After the Hon. Robert T. Lincoln became Secretary of War. Governor
Cullom, who has always taken an active interest in the pfTort to ob-
tain these records for the State, visited him in Washington, and on the
personal solicitation of the Governor, Secretary Lincoln was induced
to cause these rolls to be transcribed by clerks in the War Dejiartment,
and correct cojiies of all such have been furnished by him to this ollice,
and are ]>ublislie(l eoniiilete in this book.
X IMUUDLCTOUV.
The section of the appropriation bill passed in 1881, which author-
izes this publication, was drawn np and offered by the Hon. Samuel H.
Martin, a member of the Thirty-second General Assembly from White
county, himself a Lieutenant in the Fourteenth United States Infantry
during the ^lexican War, and to whose efforts, as well as to the efforts
of the Honorable Secretary of War and His Excellency the Governor,
the merit of obtaining and publishing these records is largely due.
Before commencing the preparation of this publication, an adver-
tisement was inserted in all the leading newspapers of the State, re-
questing all persons in possession of facts or any data concerning the
service of the Illinois soldiers in the Black Hawk and the Mexican wars,
to communicate the same to this office. Quite a general response
was made to this request by the surviving veterans of both wars, and
much intersting and valuable material has been thus accumulated in
this office, the larger portion of which cannot, of course, be used in
the limits of a publication like the present. The thanks, however, of this
office are due to those who so kindly responded to our request, and their
communications have all been carefully preserved among the files of this
office for future historical reference, and will make a fund of valuable
military information for the use of the historian of the future.
Believing the intention of the General Assembly mainly met in the
publication of the complete rosters, the briefest possible introductory
sketch is made of the j)rominent facts of the Black Hawk war, which
is compiled from Edward' History of the State of Illinois, and other
trustworthy sources, including the correspondence before mentioned.
This is followed by a short historical sketch of the part taken by the
various commands of Illinois volunteers in the Mexican war, in which
is included any honorable mention made of Illinois soldiers as shown
by excerpts from the official reports and orders of the various <Tenerals
under whom they served, so far as the same appear in the official re-
ports of these officers to the War Department at Washington. It is
of course not intended to give an extended view of the operations of
the Avar, therefore our memoranda is scrupulously confined to the actual
service of our volunteers, and presimts only such data as has been de-
rived from official and other reliable sources, which is considered nec-
essary to make intellegible the official rosters, aud which we hope, when
taken in connection with them, will make an enduring and reliable mem-
orial of their services, tlnis uioi-c ili.iii I'ul filling the wish of the Gen-
erally Assembly, who have neitlier appro])riated for. nor expected the
publication of, little else than the records as received from tlie War
Department. Although this publication as it now stands is incom-
plete, particularly in the matter of the records of service in the Winne-
bago war, and the first caui])aign oT the Black Hawk war, every effort
has been made to obtain the (Kxii-cd information, both by correspon-
dence with individuals aud llic War Department, and the work as pre-
sented gives the final residt of tlu' lu'sl I'll'orts of this otlice to meet the
expectations of the General Assembly.
HISTORICAL MEMORANDA.
THE lil.Atlv HAWK WAK.
The rolls rurnished from the War Department, and publi-slicd in
this volume, although by no means complete, show that the State of
Illinois furnished one hundred and seventy-four companies of volun-
teer rangers and spies, which were actually mustered into the service
of the United States for various periods of time, during the Black
Hawk War. Tliis, of course, does not include large numbers of the
State militia, who were under arms, and performed servies of greater
or less importance, and whose names will remain forever unknown,
many of whom were never actually mustered by any United States
military olUc-er, nor have any rolls or other account of their st-rviee been
preserved.
That the public may understand the service of these companies, and
the part performd by them in that most important of any of the Indian
Avars of the West, we give a brief sketch of the causes which led to, and
the principal events which occurred in, the Black Hawk War. The
causes which led to that war reach back to, and even before, tlie Winne-
bago or Sauk War of 1827, and are, as briefly stated by Edwards.in his
History of Illinois, as follows:
••Durinj: Governor Edwards' adiiiinistraion, as Executive of the State, the Indians
upon the Northwestern frontier began to be very troublesome. The different tribes
not only coiunienced a warfare among themselves, in regard to their respeetlve
boundaries, Itut they extended their hostilities to the white settlements. A treaty of
peace, in which the whites ucted more as mediators than as a party, had been signed
at I'rairie du Chien, on the I'Jth day of August, lS-25, by the terms of which the
boundaries lietween the Winnebagos and Sioux, Chippawas, Sauks. Foxes, and other
tribes, were defined, l)ut it failed to keep them (luiet. Their depredations and murders
continued frequent, and in the summer of 1827 their conduct, particularly that of the
Winnebagos, became very alarming.
There is no doul)t, however, that the whites, who at tiiis period were immigrating
In large nuuil)ers to the Northwest, and earnestly desired their removal further west-
ward, purposely exasperated the Indians, at the same tiine. that they greatly exagger-
ated the hostilltiis committed."— (Edwards' Hist. p. 21S.)
A combination was soon formed by the dilTerent tribes of Indians un-
der Vivd Bird, a chief of the Sioux, to kill or drive otf all the whites
above Kock river. This league, which included the Winnebagoes, Pot-
tawotamie.^, and other tribes of the Northwest, commenced their offen-
sive operations by killing two white men in the vicinitv of Prairie
du Chien, on the 24th day of July, 1827. and on the ;?Oth of the same
month thev attacked two returning keel boats which had, on their
XII BLACK ITAAVK WAR.
upward trip, conveyed military stores to Fort Snelling, killing two of
the crew and Avoiinding four others, before they were repulsed. Gov-
ernor Edwards, anticipating tro])ule, had, on the 14th day of July,
issued an order to the commandants in Gen. Hanson's brigade, (lo-
cated on the east side of the Illinois river), to detach one-fourth of
their respective regiments, and be ready to meet any attack made by the
Indians. On the same day he wrote to Col. Thomas M, Neale, of the
Twentieth Eegiment (from Sangamon county), to accept six hundred
volunteers, who were to equip themselves, find their own subsistence,
and continue in service thirty days, unless sooner discharged; to ren-
dezvous the same at Fort Clark, and march with all possible expedi-
tion from there to Galena, to the assistance of the whites, as the Indians
had threatned the settlers at the lead mines, near that place. The pos-
session of these mines by tlie whites had always excited the serious
jealousy of the Indians,
Under this call Col. JSTeale recruited one cavalry company, which was
commanded by Capt. Edward Mitchell, and four companies of infantry,
commanded, respectively, by Captains Thomas Constant, Eeul)en Brown,
Achiles Morris and Bowlin Green. The whole force under command
of Col. Xeale, (the other field officers are imknown except James D.
Henr}- — Sheriff at the time of Sangamon County — Adjutant), marched
to Peoria, where the regiment was more fully organized, and from
thence to Galena. Before their arrival, however, in the Indian country
Red Bird and six of his principal warriors had surrendered, and the
campaign being ended the volunteers returned to their homes. Xo
rolls of these companies have been obtained, and if they were mustered
into the United States service at all, the rolls were either never re-
turned/to the department, or have been mislaid.
While Col. Xeale was recruiting and marching his regiment to Ga-
lena, the settlers there were not idle. A committee of safety had been
formed and temporary defences Avere erected, and in pursuance of an
order from Governor Edwards the miners were formed into companies
and equipped for action, (the rolls of only one company of these militia
have been furnished us, Capt. James M. Strode's, page 187.) These
militia were placed under the immediate command of Gen. Henry
Dodge, and formed an auxiliary force to the command of Brig.-Gen.
Henry Atkinson, U. S. A., whose force consisted of six hundred regu-
lars. Before the arrival of Col. Xeale, these forces combining under
Gen. Atkinson, marched into the Winnebago country and captured
Eed Bird, wiio. it a])pears hy a letter of Gen. Street to Governor Ed-
Avards, voluntarily surrendered himself to the whites, coming into camp
displaying a white flag. Witli Eed Bird there also surrendered them-
!:-elves six other Indians, including Black Hawk, Avho had not yet become
famous. These Indians were retained in captivity several months, Red
Bird dying during confinement; and some of them havinc heen tried
lUSTOlIU'AL .MKMOHANDA. XIII
and convicted of conii)licity in the murder of Avhite settlers, were
executed on tlie 2Gtli day of December, 1837. Black Hawk, against
whom nothing could be proven, was acquitted, but it is alleged afterwards
acknowledged his guilt and boasted of his connection with the murck'rs
for wliich he had been tried. With the deatli of Ked Bird ended tlie
Winnebago war. The tribe seemed to be thoroughly huml)led by the
result of the campaign, and although fears of further hostilities from
tlieni were for some time after entertained, they continued peaceable.
In regard to the lands about which the diilieulty originated, until the
question of ownership could be adjusted amicably, they promised to
keep away from the mines entirely, Gen. Atkinson promising them
that "the next sunnner persons would come from their Great Fatlier
to consult with them about the matter."
"A talk was v^ubsequently had with tln'ui in wliich I hey abandoned all
the country south of the Wisconsin river. After this there was a general
peace with the Indians throughout the wi'stern frontier.' (Edwards'
His. p. 22i. ) In the meantime Governor Edwards did not cease his
efforts to urge on the War Department the necessity of the entire re-
moval of the Indians from the State, their presence being a constant
menace, and their continued residence on lands which they had ceded
being dangerous to the peace of the white settlers, who were constantly
increasing in numbers, and whose animals the Indians did not hesitate
to appropriate whenever opportunity offered. In October the Secre-
tary of War informed the Governor that Governor "Cass had been in-
structed to "take measures with regard to the removal of the Indians.*'
But delays having occurred, and the Indians still remaining, on the
2oth day of ^lay, 1828, Governor Edwards wrote to Gen. Clark urging
immediate action on the part of the Government. This he followed
by a letter addressed to the Secretary of War, dated June ITth, in
which he stated: "This grievance still continuing, and aggravated as
it is by recent occurrences of which I am bound to i)resume you are
informed, I feel it my duty to ask you what further in regard to this
matter mav l)e expected from the General (iovcrninent.' (Edwards'
Hist. p. 22(!.)
UpOn the urgent request of the Indians, and notwithstanding tlie
earnest protest of the Governor (Edwards), twelve months additiomil
time was given them in which to remove from the State. With regard
to this delay and in a sjjirit of protest against the action of the Gov-
ernment in the premises, Governor Edwards wrote (Jen. Clark, Indian
agent at St. Louis, a letter, in the conclusion of which Ik- used the fol-
lowing significant language: "If any act of hostility shall be com-
mitted on the frontiers, T will not hesitate to remove them on my own
responsibility as (iovci-nor of the State.''
XIV r.i.A( K HAWK WAi;.
As to the subsequent historv of the causes wliich finally led to this
outbreak, Edwards says :
About this time (1829) the President issued his proclamation, according to law, and,
in pursuance thereof, all the country above the mouth of Rock River (the ancient seat
of the Sank nation) Avas sold to American families, and in the year following it was
taken possession of by them. To avoid difficulty with the tribes another treaty, con-
firming previous ones, was made with the Sacs and Foxes," on the 15th of July, 1830,
by the provisions of which they were to remove peacefully from the Illinois country.
A portion of the Sacs, with their principal chief, Keokuk, at their head, quietly retired
across the Mississippi. With those who remained in the village, at the mouth of
Rock River, an arrangement was made by the Americans who had purchased the
land, by which they were to live together as neighbors, the Indians still cultivating
their old fields as formerly. Black Hawk, however, a restless and uneasy spirit, who
had ceased to rocogni/.e Keokuk as chief, and who was known to be still under the
pay of the British, emphaticallly refused either to remove from the lands or to
respect the rights of tlie Americans to them. He insisted luat Keokuk had no authority
for making such a treaty, and he proceeded to gather around him a large number of
the warriors and young men of the tribe, who were anxious to distinguish themselves
as "braves," and, placing himself at their head, he determined to dispute with the
whites the possession of the ancient seat of his nation. He had conceived the gigantic
scheme, as appears by his own admissions, of uniting all the Indians, from the Rock
River to the Oiilf of Mexico, in a war against the I'nited States, and he made use of
every pretext for gaining accessions to his party.
In the meantime, on the 9th day of December, 1830, the Hon. John
Eeynolds had been elected Governor of the State.
In pursuance of his declared intention of regaining possession of the
ancient hunting grounds and the principal village of his tribe, in the
month of April, 1831, Black Hawk recrossed the river, at the head of
M force variously estimated at from three to five hundred braves of his
own tril;)o, with from one to two hundred allies of the Pottawotamies
and Kickapoos, bringing with them his women and children, with the
avowed purpose of remaining.
Black Hawk immediately notified the whites that they -must depart
from the village, and they refusing to comply, their property was de-
stroyed, and they suffered in person various indignities at the hands
of the Indians. On the 30th of April, forty of these settlers sent a pe-
tition to (^o^'ernor Reynolds, setting forth their grievances, and asking
relief. Governor Eeynolds, thus informed of the state of affairs, and
believing that Black Hawk and his band were determined to retain
possession of the country by force, resolved to effect their expulsion.
A call was therefore made for volunteers {May 27, 1831), and when
it became known, the whole nothwestern part of the State resounded
with the clamor of Avar, No county south of St. Clair nor east of Sanga-
mon was included in the call, which was limited to seven hundred men,
who were to report within fifteen days' time, mounted and equipped,
at the place of rendezvous, which was fixed at Beardstown, on the
Illinois river. More than twice the number of men called for responded,
and the Governor, finding so many willing and ready to go, decided to
accept the services of the whole 1,600 men. They were moved to
a camp two miles nortli of Eushville. and lliere organized into two
llllbTUKKAL .\li:.\l(»liANUA. W
regiments, and two battalions. One of the regiments elected James
D. Henry, of Sagamon county. Colonel, *and the other elected Daniel
Lieb, while ]iIajor Xathaniel Buckmaster was elected to command
the "Odd Battalion." ^lajor Samuel Whitesides was appointed by the
(lovernor to the command of the "Spy Battalion," and the whole bri-
gade was placed under the command of lion. Joseph Duncan, then the
member in Congress, and afterward Governor of the State, who was
commissioned by Governor Keynolds as Brigadier General of militia.
Colonels Enoch C. Marsh and Samuel C. Christy were appointed quar
termasters, while the Governor himself accompanied the expedition in
his capacity as Commander-in-Chief of the militia of the State. They
immediately (Juno 15th, 1831), took up their march from camp
near Rushville to Eock river, where they arrived on the 2oth of Jime.
Six companies of regular troops, which had been dispatched from
Jefferson Barracks, under the command of Gen. Gaines, had arrived
at Fort Armstrong a few days liefore, and had already had an unsatis-
factory conference with Black Hawk, who declined to return across
the river. Gen. Gaines met Governor Eeynolds and his force at their
encampment on the Mississippi, eight miles below the old Sac village,
and after receiving the volunteers into the United States service. Gens.
Gaines and Duncan concerted measures of attack. But the wily Black
Hawk, no doubt well apprised of the number of the force which was
reatly to attack him, concluded not to risk an engagement, but on the
night of the 25th -had quietly recrossed the river, leaving his deserted
cainp and village to be peaceably taken possession of by the forces of
the opposing Generals on the following morning. Out of vengeance,
no doubt, for their disappointment at the escape of the Indians, and
to remove future cause of dispute, the soldiers destroyed tlie village
riitirely by fire. As Governor Ford says in his history, "Thus perished
this ancient village, Avhich had been the delightful home of (5,000 to
T.OOO Indians, where generation after generation had been born, had
died and been buried." Gen. Gaines sent an order to Black Hawk re-
quiring him and his band to return and enter into a treaty., They
refusing to respond to the first invitation, a second and more peromp-
lory mandate had the desired effect, and on the 30th day of June, 1831,
lihukllawk and about thirty chiefs of the Sacs came, and in full council
with Governor Eeynolds and Gen. Gaines, signed an agreement, in
which they agreed, among other things, that "no one or more shall ever
be permitted to recross said river, to the usual place of residence, nor
any part of their old hunting grounds east of the Mississippi, without
l)ermission of the President of the United States, or the Governor of
the State of Illinois." The volunteer troops were then disl)anded,
and returned to tiieir homes, while the subsistence gathered for their

sustentuico, was from time to time givn by Gens. Gaines and the kin.l-
hearted Governor to the Indians, who had, by their foolish invasion,
rendered it impossible to raise any crop for that season, it being loi^
late to plant any crop after the war had closed. Thus ended with-
out bloodshed the first campaign of the Black Hawk war. Of the forces
engaged therein, there are but the rolls of two companies, published
herein, Capt. Solomon Miller's, from St. Clair county, and Capt. Wil-
liam Moore's, of the same county, both in ^laj. Buckmasters "Odd
Battalion." (See pages 188, 190.")
18;3"^ — SECOND CA:\irAUiX.
A'^otwithstanding the treaty, the troul)le was not yet entled. In the
spring of 1832 Black Hawk recrossed the Mississi})pi (April Gth) and
commenced his march up Eock Biver Valley, accompanied by about
five hundred warriors on horseback, while his women and children
went up the river in their canoes. Gen. Atkinson, then stationed at
Fort Armstrong, warned him against this aggression and ordered him
to return, but this they refused to do, and went forward to the country
of the Winnebagoes, with whom Black Hawk nuide arrangements to
make a crop of corn, which reason he alleged to be the cause of the
expedition. The Winnebagoes and Pottawotamies, however, both re-
fused to yield to his solicitations to join him in a war against the whites.
On being informed of tlie movements of Black Hawk, Governor
Eeynolds (April IGth) called for a thousand mounted volunteers, from
the central and southern parts of the State, to rendezvous at Beards-
town, on the 2'2d of the same month. Daily accounts of the opera-
tions of the Indians w'ere received. Judge Young, Col. Strode and
Benjamin Mills wrote the Governor, urging speedy protection of the
frontiers, as the inhabitants were in great danger. On receipt of
this intelligence two hundred men (see pp. 151-4), under Major
Stillnian, were ordered to guard the frontier near the ^lississippi, and
two hundred (see Col. Johnson's regiment), under ]\Iajor Bailey, the
frontier between the Mississippi and the settlements on the lllionis.
Such was the threatening aspect of affairs, that the call was extended
to every part of the State. In the meantime eighteen hundred men
had met at Beardstown, and were organized into a brigade of four
regiments and an "odd" and a ''spy'' battalion. An election (April
28) for field officers, resulted in the election of Col. John Thomas to
comnuind the First Regiment, Col. Jacob Fry the Second Eegiment,
Col. Abram B. DeWitt the Third Eegiment, Col. Samuel M. I'homp-

iment (pp. Il()-r2'3), also served in this brigade. Governor Keynolds,
who also accompanied the expedition, placed Brigadier Gen. White-
side in the immediate command, while Cols. March and Christy, the
etlicimt (juartermasters in the campaign of 1831, were relied on to
gather the sui)i)lies for the present campaign. William Thomas was
ai)ointed Brigade Quartermaster, while Capts. James B. Stapp and

On the 29th day of April, the army left camp near Beard stown and
marched to the ilississippi river, at or near the present town of. Oquawka.
On arriving at that place, and some delay occurring in the receipt of
sup])lies, messengers were dispatched to Gen. Atkinson, at Fort Arm-

From here they marehcd \\]^ tlic river to the mouth of Rock river,
Avhere they were all received into tlie United >States service by Gen.
Atkinson. From this point the commanding general proceeded up
the Eoclv river on a steamer, accompanied by a force of 400 regulars
and an arman.cnt of cannon, while the volunteers under Gen. Wbitr-
side marched through the swamps in the vicinity of the stream. Thi
moved up Kock river without encountering savages until they arrived
at the town of Dixon, on the evening of the 10th of ]Nlay, where they
found ]\Iajors Stilhnan and Bailey, who were at this place Avith their
forces where they had been directed to remain in their duty of protecting
the frontier. Gen. Atkinson then sent out a scouting party of five
men to confer with the cliiefs of the Pottawotamies, and who, after
getting lost, returned the third day afterward, reporting to have fallen
in with some of Black Hawk's men who were encamped on a small
stream known as Old Plan's Creek, twelve miles above Dixon. ]\Iajors
Stillman and Bailey having done ])ut little service, besought the Gov-
ernor to grant them the privilege of reconnoitering the enemy. There-
upon Governor Reynolds issued to them the following order: "Major
Stillman : You will cause the troops under your immediate command,
and the battalion unrler Major Bailey, to proceed without delay to the
head of Old ]\Ian"s Creek, where it is supposed there are some hostile
Indians and coerce them into subniission." On the following morn-
ing, ]\Iay 14, IH;]'^), they started with 275 men (Stillman's Brigade.

suing their course up that stream some fifteen miles, to Sycamore
Creek. They dismounted for the purpose of passing the night. While
engaged in camp duties, three Indians, b(?aring a white flag, came into
lamp, and were taken into custody. These were soon followed by five
more, who came near the camp, no doubt with the ])ur)>ose of inviting
an attack. In this they succeeded, and a party of Stillman's men im-
mediately started in pursuit, while others followed as soon as they could
mount, and soon three-fourths of the command had Joined in an irregu-.
lar chase across the prairie. The soldiers overtook and killed two of
the Indians, and pursued the others to the edge of the forest. At this
juncture Black Hawk, with about forty of his men, arose from an am-
Imsh. and with terrific yells charged on the assailants, who, in their turn,
retreated in hot haste, followed by the infuriated savages. The fearful
din caused by the retreating soldiers and their pursuers caused a stam-
jK'de in the remainder of the force of the camp, and they all fled, in an
inglorious panic, and in spite of the efforts of ^lajor Stillman and
others to rally them, the retreat was continued until they all reached
the main force at Dixon. Major Perkins and Captain Adams, of Taze-
well County, with about fifteen men, made a stand in which they some-
what checked the Indians, and thus saved the lives of many of the
fugitives, who would otherwise have fallen victims to their ])ursuers.
This rally cost the brave Adams his life, his body Ijeing found the next
day near the dead bodies of two of the savages, Avhom he had un-
dou])tedly slain before he himself was killed. As a result of the fight,
eleven whites and seven Indians were killed, besides many woundcil
on both sides.
During the night of the battle, known since as ''Stillman's Kun,"
Governor Eeynolds made a requisition for 2,000 men to be in readi-
ness for future operations, while the unnu^st consternation spread
throughout the State and Xaiion. Exaggerated reports of the num-
bers of the Indians, and the skill, ability, cunning and cruelty nf Black
Hawk, added much to the general alarm.
General Scott, with 1,0000 United States troops, was immediately
ordered to the Xorthwest, to superintendent the future 0])erations of
the campaign.
When the news of Slillman's defeat reached the camp
a council of war was held, and it was determined to n-lur
atelv to the battle field.
The next morning, after obtaining ten oxen from Col. Jol
whieli were slaughtered and issued to the men, without lu-ea
the whole force marched to the scene of the encounter. '

every ilirection, the cneiiiy could not be found, and the whole force fell
back to Dixon.
The new levies, under the call of Gov. Reynolds, were to meet, some
on the 3d of June, at Beardstown, and the others on the 10th of the
same montli at Hennepin.
The men first recruited, now asked to be discharged, but the Gov-
eimor appealing to their patriotism, they agreed to remain from 13 to
15 days longer, and the companies under Bailey (Covell's, McClure's
Pugh's and Adams'), with Stillman's battalion, (Captains Eads',
Barnes' and Ball's companies) were organiezd into a regiment, known
as the Fifth Regiment of Whiteside's Brigade, under Colonel James
Johnson, nnd received into the service of the United States, and one part
ordered to Ottawa, for the defense of tliat place, while the other re-
mained at Dixon to guard the stores, around which General Atkinson
had caused embankments to be thrown.
On the 19th of ^lay the whole army marched up the river in pursuit
of the enem}^, and on the evening of the same day received news of the
massacre of several whites on Indian Creek, not far from Ottawa.
General Atkinson ordered Gen. Whiteside's and Col. Taylor (after-
wards President of the United States) to continue the pursuit with the
volunteers, while he, with the regulars, returned to Dixon. After fol-
lowing trails in several directions, which proved that the Indians had
divided and left the immediate country for the north, and the troop:>
expressing a determination to return to their homes, were brought to
the mouth of Rock river, and there discharged on the 27th and 28th
(lays of May, and thus the campaign ended without effecting any im-
portant results.
SECOND CAMPAIGN — 1832
On the requisition of Gen. Atkinson, the Governor called for 1,000
additional men, which were recruited out of the disbanded men for im-
mediate service, for a term of twenty days, until the new levies should
arrive. This regiment, which was filled without difficulty, organized
l)y the election of Jacob Fry, as Colonel; James D. Henry, as Lieuten- .
ant-Colonel.

after bravely guarding the imperiled frontier, was mustered out of the
service on the loth day of June, except Capt. lies' comi)any, which was
discharged the IGth, and Capt. Snyder's discharged the 31st of June.
This latter company had some severe skirmishing witli the enemy, some
sventy in numl)er, near Kellogg's Grove, in whicli four of the Indians
and two of the whites were killed.
On the 6th of June, Black Hawk, with aliout 150 warriors," made an
attack on Apple River Fort, situated a quarter of a mile north of the
present village of Elizaljeth and twelve miles from Galena. Three
messengers, on their way from Dixon to Galena, were fired upon when
one-half mile from the fort, and one of them wounded, but all of them
escaped to the fort. The inhaliitants, alarmed at the shots, fled to the
fort( which was invested, and a continual fire kept uj) for fifteen hours
by the savages, who had taken possession of the dwellings of the whites,
from which they fired through holes made for that purpose through
the walls. The twenty-five men composing the garrison, made such a
determined resistance that the savages, after having destroyed every-
thing within their reach, departed, taking with them all the stock, pro-
visions and movable property of the settlers. Only one man of the
whites was killed, while the loss of the savages has never been ascer-
tained. Col. Strode, of the militia, arrived the next day from Dixon
with a force to their relief, but the enemy had made good his escape.
The savages having attacked and killed two men near 1-t. Hamilton
five miles from Galena, Gen. Dodge, of Wisconsin, followed them, with
a force under his command, and, overtaking them at Pecatonica, charged
upon them and killed the whole numljer. with a loss of three men killed
in his own force.
Capt. Stephenson, of Galena, and a ])art of his comi)any, had a little
skirmish with the enemy between Apple Kiver Fort and Kellogg's Grove,
and were repulsed by the Indians, who had taken shelter in a small
grove, with the loss of three killed and the Captain and several others
seriously wounded.
Tlic new levies met as provided in tlie call, at Beardstown and Hen-
nei)in, lait. were afterward ordereil to Fort Wilbourne, a snuill fortifica-
tion on the south bank of the Illinois river, about a mile al)0ve Peru,
which had been erected by Lieut. Williourne for the protection of the
stores entrusted to his care by Col. ^larch.
A promiscuous multitude of several thousands had assemlded, among
them many of the most i)rominent men in the State, and the selection
of officers was a matter requiring great delicacy and tact. But after
the organization of the comjianies, the ca])tains of the several companies
and the (Governor agreed that the ]trincipal officers should be deter-
mined by an election, in which all the troo])s should participate. The

was elected General of the First, Milton K. Atkinson of the Second,
and James D. Henry of the Third, (u-n. Atkinson received them into
the service of the United States, and took the general command of the
force tlms organized, which amounted to 3192 men.
The Governor appointed to his stalf, as Aids, Benjamin F. Hickman
and Alex. F. Grant, James Turnev, Adjutant General, and Col. E. 0.
March, Q. M. General. Besides the main army four battalions were
organized for special purposes, commanded severally by ilajors Bogan
and Bailey, and Colonels Buckmaster and Dement.
The brigades were composed of three regiments each, commanded by
officers of their own selection, but no rolls of the regimental field and
staff, nor of the staff of the different brigade commanders are in the pos-
session of this otHce, though supposed to exist among the records of thi'
\Yar Department at Washington, D. C.
In view of the disasters which threatened the northern frontier, the
Governor ordered a chain of forts to be erected from the Mississipjii
to Chicago.
On the 17th day of June, Col. Dement, with his si)y battalion of 150
men, was ordered to report himself to Col. Taylor at ]3ixon, while the
main army was to follow. On his arrival at Dixon he was ordered to
take position in Kellogg's grove, where, on the ^oth day of June, h >
was visited by Mr. Funk, of McLean county, who, while on his way from
the lead mines the night before, reported that a trail of about 300 In-
dians leading northward had been seen that day. A council of war,
held that night, determined that Col. Dement and fifty picked men
should reconnoiter the surrounding country the next day. At day-
light the party sallied forth, and when within 300 yards of the fort
discovered several Indian spies. Eegardless of the cries of Col. De-
ment and Lieut- Governor Casey, who accompanied him, and without
waiting for direction, these undrilled and undisciplined men immedi-
ately charged on the foes, and recklessly following them, despite all
efforts of Col. Dement to cheek them, were led into an ambush, and sud-
denly were confronted by 300 howling naked savages under the com-
mand of Black Hawk in person. The sudden appearance of the savage-
created a panic among the whites, and each man struck out for him-
self in the direction of the fort, witli a speed which equalled, if it did
not excel, the alacrity with which they left it in the morning.
In the confused retreat which followed, five of the whites, who werr
without horses, were killed, while the remainder reached the fort, and
dismounting, entered it, closely pursued by the enemy. The fort was
vigorously assailed for over an hour l)y the savages, who were repidsed,
and forced to retire, leaving nine of their number behind them, dead on
the field, ])esides several others carried away wounded. Xo one in th^
fort was killed, but several wounded. Col. Dement received three shots
through his clothing, but fortunately escaped unhurt. At 8 o'clock in
the morning, messengers were sent fifty miles to Gen. Posey for assist-
ance, and towards sundown tlint General and his Fris^ade made their
lll^l()l;u AL .\ii;.\H)i;.\M)A. XXill
nppi'arancc, and no furllar attack was made on the fort by the savages.
General Posey started out in seareli of the enemy the next day, but the
trail, showed that they had pursuid their favorite taeties of scattering
their forces, and the pursuit was abandoned. The army continued its
marili up K'ock Kiver, near the source of which they expected to find the
mcniy. .\s provisi(ms were scarce and ditlicult to convey for any dis-
tance, tlie command of Gen. Akwander, with a detachment under Gen-
Ilenry and ^fajor Dodge, was sent to Fort Winnebago, between Fox and
Wisconsin rivers, to obtain su])plies. Learning that Bhick Hawk was
encamped on the Whitewater, Gen. Henry and Major Dodge started in
immediate pursuit, leaving Gen. Alexander with his command in charge
of tile })rovisions to return to Gen. Atkinson. After several days' hard
marches, and much sulfering from exposure and lack of food, on the
•^Ist day of July, the enemy were overtaken on the bluffs of the Wis-
consin, and a decisive battle fought, in which Gen. Henry commanded
the Ami'rican forces, Avhich consisted of !Major Dodge's battalion on
the right. Col. Jones" regiment in the CvUter. and ("ol. Collins' on the
left, with ^lajor l-Jwing's battalion in the frDiil. aiul CdI. Fry's regiment
in the rear as a reserve force. In this order ihey charged the enemy,
and drove him from ])osition after position with great loss, till the sun
went down, leaving them victoi-s, in the first important advantage gained
over the.enemy during the war.
In the morning it was discovered that the Indians had lied in the di-
rection of the ^[ississij)pi river, lea\ing KiS dead on the field, and of
their wounded, taken witii tiienu twenty-live were found dead tlie next
day on their trail, while Gen. Henry lost one man kiUed and eight
wounded. Litters were constructed for the wounded, and on the '2?h\
of July, the army was again in motion, and after some difficulty on ac-
count of high water, reached Blue ^lounds in safety, where they inef".

A return of the force at this time showed in l*osi-y"s brigade "300 effec-
tive men, Alexander's .S50, in Henry's oOO. while the regulars unde^-
Gen. Brady mustered 4-00 men: all told, the force mustered about l,vO0
effective men — though much reduced since the. beginning of the cam-
paign, still more than twice the number possessed by BUuk Hawk when
in his best state of prejiaration, l)efore any of tiu' fights.
On the '^.")th the whole army was again ])ut in motion, to ii\ lo lind
the Indians. Having spent two days in crossing the Wisconsin river,

ward iv.ulK'd in a starving condition. In this condition the Indians,
Avhen they arrived at the river, were attacked hy a force under Capt.
Throckmorton, who was on the steamer Warrior, and who. with a six-
pound cannon, loaded witli canister, destroyed many of the luckless
fugitives, although they liad displayed a white flag, Avhich he refused
to recognize. The fuel in the steamer having failed, it fell down the
river to Prairie du Chien. Although he had killed twenty-three In-
dians and wounded may more, Capt. Throckmorton intended to return
after wooding up, and finish the remainder. Before he could execute
his intention, however, Gen. Atkinson had fallen on the unfortunate
savages Avhere they were encamped, at the mouth of the Bad Axe, a
creek emptying into the Mississippi river, and had commeJiced a gen-
eral battle, in which the Indians were completely routed, and suffered
8 loss of 150 killed, Ijesides many drowned, and many more wounded.
A large number of women and children lost their lives, owing to the
fact tliat it was impossil^le to distinguish them from the men. [David-
son and Stuve's Hist. 405.] The American loss was seventeen killed.
This battle virtually ended the war. Gen. Atkinson, with his force,
and prisoners, [about fifty women and children], fell down the river
to Prairie duGhien. On the 7th day of August, Gen. Winfield Scott,
who, with nine companies of infantry, had been sent from Fortress
Monroe, arrived, and assumed command. He had arrived with four
of these companies at Chicago the day before, making the march of
1,800 miles in eighteen days, part of the way by steamer on the lakes,
having left behind three companies, who had contracted Asiatic cholera
at Detroit, at Fort Gratiot, forty miles from that. city. This disease
preyed to such an extent on the forces who came through, that they re-
mained in Chicago until the latter part of the month before coming on
to Fort Armstrong, their final destination. The volunteers now re-
turned to Dixon, and were discharged on the 17tli day of August. On
the 2?tli Black Hawk, having been captured. by some treacterous Win-
nebagocs, was delivered to the whites at Prairie du Chien, and he and
his family were seiitas hostage^ to Fortress ]\Ionroe, and there retained
until June. IS:]:]. \n September, 1832, a treaty was made which ended
tile Indian troubles in this State, and although a few companies were
detained a icw weeks longer, the inain l)ody,of the force returned to their
homes in August, 1832.
Black Hawk, upon regaining bis liberty, ever after conducted himself
in a friendly numner to the whites. In 1837 he again visited Wash-
ington with a deputation of the cbiefs of -his tribe, on the invitation of
the President, to sdllr (lilTci-eiu-; s wbieh had occasioned a violent war
with them and Ibc Sioux. Aftcv bis return he settled in what is now
known as Lee eouiity. Iowa. In tbe spring of 1838 he built himself a

Perhaps no one of his race ever excelled Black Hawk in patriotism
or love for his country. He fought an unecpial hattle for the home
and the graves of his ancestors. ]n his last s])eech to the Americans,
he said: "Kock I'iver was a heautiful country. I like my towns, my

MEXICAN WAIJ.
The volunteers from the State of Illinois performed sneh a conspicu-
ous part in the war Avith ^Mexico, that it is necessary to give an epitome
of the war, to he able to understand and ap]jreciate the nature and value
of their services, and render them the due credit which their importance
demands.
On the 11th day of May, 184(5, Congress passed an act, declaring that
"By the act of the Bepublic of ^lexico, a state of war exists between
that Government and the United States." At the same time that body
made an appropriation of ten millions dollars to carry on the war, and
authorized the President to accept fifty thousand volunteers.
This force, for convenience sake, to save transportation, and because
of their already well-known familiarity with fire-arms, was drawn prin-
cipally from the Southern and Western Stats. Illinois was called on
for three regiments of infantry or riflemen, and the pay, with all allow-
ances, ])l;u-ed at $15.50 ])er UKMith to Ww ])rivate soldier. The militia
0+' the Stat(> being then in an unorganized condition. Governor Ford is-
sued a c^ill for thirty full companies of volunteers -of a maximum of
eighty men, to serve for twelve months, and with the privilege of elect-
ing their own company and regimental officers.
The response to the call was enthusiastic in the extreme. Within ten
days thirty-five full companies had organized and reported. By the time
the place of rendezvous had been selected, (Alton), there had been sev-
enty-five companies recruited, — each furious to go — of which the Gov-
ernor (Ford) was compelled to select thirty companies — the full quota
of tlie State — and the forty-odd unsuccessful companies were doomed
to the disappointement of remaining at home. Of these thirty com-
panies, were organized the First Kegiment, Col. John J. Flardin; the
Second Regiment, Col. William H. Bissell, and the Third l^\2:iment,
Col. Ferris Foreman, which were recruited during the months of April,
May and June, and mustered into the United States service, at Alton,
111., on the 2d day of July, 1840.
Hon. E. D. Bali-er, then a meml)cr of Congress from the Ca])ital dis-
trict, induced the Secretary of War to accejit another regiment h'om this
State, and thereupon the Fourth Illinois was organized and mustered
into the service on the ISth day of July, 184(5, and served in the saim^
brigade with the Tliird Eegiment until both were diseliarged.
The First and Second Bcfjiments must be (.•ousidered together, as their
history is the same.
lUSTOnU'AL MKMOUANDA. XXVJI
These regiments were transported separately down tlie ^lississippi
river and across the Gulf, and re-joineil each other on the first day of
August at Camp Erwin, near the ohl town of Victoria, on \Veukiop
river, and after marching together to San Antonio, Texas, they joined
General Wool's army of the center. They left that city on the 'iGth
day of Septeml)er. Alarching steadily along, they enti-red Santa Kosa
on the 24th day of Uctoher with no o-pposition. Thence they marched
to Monclova. thence to Parras. w lure the original idea of the march, the
capture of Chihuahua, was ahamh^ned.
After renuiining at this place twelve days, (u-neral Wool started to
intercept, if possihle, Santa Anna's attack on ^lonterey, and on the vlst
of December occupied Agua Xueva, thus completing a six weeks' march
of about one thousand miles, which had been barren of results. In
January, 1847, General Taylor proceeded from Saltillo and formed a
jimction with Gen. Wool. On the 2v!d day of February, 1847, was be-
gun the l)attle of Buena Msta, which ended on the 23d, and resulted in
a complete victory for the American forces, and in which these two Tll-
nois regiments covered themselves with glory.
Concerning the conduct of the Illinois volunteers at the battle of Eucna
Vista, we quote from an extended rejiort made by ^la^'or General Zach.
Taylor, T'. S. A., connnanding. dated
"AGUA XEIVA. March 6. 1S47.
"Thf First aiiil Sicoiid lUiimis anil the St-coiul Kentucky Ucj^inicnts served imme-
diately under my eye. and I bear a willint: testimony to their excellent conduct through-
out the day. The spirit and f;allautry with which the First Illinois and Second Ken-
tucky engaged the enemy in the morning, restored confidence to that part of the field,
while the list of casualties will show how mucli-these three regiments suffered in sus-
taining the heavy charge of the enemy in the afternoon. Captain Conner's Company
of Texas Volunteers, attached to the Second Illinois Uegiment, fought bravely, its
Captain being wounded and two subalterns kilkd. Colonel lUssell, the only surviving
Colonel of these regiments, merits notice for his coolness and bravery on this occasion.
After the fall of the tiehl otlicers of the Fijst Illinois and Second Kentucky Kegi-
raents, the command of the former devolved upon Lieutenant-Colonel Weatherfnrd,
and that of the latttr upon Major Fry. Uegimental commanders and others, who
have reuilered reports, speak in general terms of the good conduct of their otlicers
and men, and have speciliid many names, but the limits of this report forbid a re-
capitulation of them here. I may. however, mention • ♦ * Lieutenat-Colonel Wtath-
orford. First Illinois Uegiment, Lieutenant Colonel Morrison, Major Trail and Adjutant
Wliiteside (severely wonn<ledi. Second Illinois Regiment, and Major Fry, Second Ken-
tucky Uegiment, as bi-ing favorably noticed for gallantry and good conduct. • • •
To Major Warren, First Illinois Volunteers, I feel much Indebted, for his firm and
Judicious course, while exercising command in the city of Saltillo." (MSS. and doc.
184T, p. ];!;t.)
From a return of troops engaged in the action of the 22d and 23d
day of February, A. D. 1847, made l)y General Zachery Taylor to the
Adjutant General of tbe Army, under date of ^larch 6th, we quote fis

conmiissioned officers and privates. Sick— Eour commissioned officers, 40 non-commis-
sioned officers and privates. Aggregate, 573 officers and privates.
From an official return of the killetl. wounded and missing in battle
of Buena Yista, we quote:
FIRST ILLINOIS FOOT.
Killed— One Colonel. One Captain, one Subaltern, 26 enlisted men. Total 29.
AVounded— Two Subalterns, \C, enlisted men, missing, 3. Aggregate loss, 50.
SECOND ILLINOIS FOOT.
Killed— Two Captains, one Subaltern, 29 eulisted men.
AYouuded Two Captains, six Subalterns, 03 enlisted men. Missing, four enlisted
men. Aggregate loss, 126.
With the exception of the sending out of an occasional foraging de-
tacliment no further service Avas performed h}- these two regimejits dur-
ing the war. They remained at Buena Yista until the latter part of
May, when the following order was issued:
Headquarters, Bueka Vista, ^
Mav 28, 1W7. \
Orders No. 302.
The term of service for which the First and Second Illinois Regiments have en-
gaged to serve the United States has nearly expired, and they are about to return to
their homes. The General commanding takes this occasion to express his deep regret
at the departure of those who have been so long under his immediate command, and
who have served so well their country.
Few can boast of longer marches, greater hardships, or more privations, and none
of greater gallantry than on the field of Buena Vista. It was there that the General
witnesses with infiinite satisfaction their valor, which gave additional luster to our
arms, and increased glory to our country. To their steadiness and firmness in con-
nection with the Second Kentucky Regiment of foot, in resisting the Mexicans at a
critical moment, and when there were five- to one against them, and as General Santa
Anna said, "where blood flowed in torrents and the field of battle was strewed with
their dead," we may justly ascribe a large share of the glorious victory achieved over
20,000 men. A great victory it is true; but obtained at too great a sacrifice. Hardin,
Zabri.ska, McKee, Woodward, Yell, Clay, and many others, fell leading their men
to the charge. Their names and gallant deeds will ever be remembered by a grateful
people. In taking leave of these regiments, the General cannot omit to express his
admiration of the conduct and gallant bearing of all, and especially of Cols. Bissell
and Weatherford and their officers, who have on all occasions done honor to them-
selves, and heroically sustained the cause of their country in the battle of Buena Vista.
His liest wishes will attend them to their homes, where they will be received with
joy and gladness as the pride of their families and of their States.

were like the first two, brigaded together during their entire service.
They were placed in Gen. Paterson's division, and marching from Mata-
iiibToKiCAL -Mi:.\ioi;a.\ua. X\]X
moras to Tanipico, formed part of Geu. Shields' force while he was in
command of that city. On the 9th day of March, tiie TJiird and Fourth
liegiments took part in the descent on Vera Cruz. Gen. Scott says in
his report, dated Vera (.'ruz, March 14, 1847 : "I coukl not postpone
the descent, successfully made on the 9th inst., for half of the surf boats,
Brig.-Gen. Shields' l)rigade, (old volunteers from Tampico), or the
wagons and teams which were then behind. That General landed with
the army, having a small part of one of his old regiments, (three com-
panies of the Third Illinois Foot), and the Xew York regiment of new
volunteers." (Mess, and Doc. 1847, p. 218). Gen. Scott was mistaken
in attriV)uting to the Third Illinois credit due to the Fourth. Though
both ri'giments took part in tlie expedition, it was com])anies "A,"' ''F"
and "G" of the Fourth Illinois, under the immediate command of Lieut.
Col. John ;Moore. who made the landing referred to, Capt. H. A. Rob-
erts, of Co. ''A," from Sangamon county, being the first man to jilace his
foot on the enemy's soil.
In the battle of Cerro Gordo, the Third and Fourth were hotly en-
gaged, and gained great credit for their bravery. Gen. Scott, in his
report of that battle to the Secretary of War, under date of April 23,
1847, says:
Early on the nioruing of the 18th, the columns moved to the jsoneral attack, and
our success was speedy and decisive. ♦* * The Brigade so gallantly led by General
Shields, and after his fall, by Colonel Baker, deserves high commendation for its fine
behavior and success. Cols. Foreman and Burnett, and Major Harris (Fourth Illinois)
commanded the regiments; Lieut. Hammond, Third artillery, and Lieut. Davis, Illinois
volunteers, constituted the brigade staff. (Mess, and Doc. 1S47, p. 26.3.)
Brig.-Gen. Twiggs who was in the immediate command of all the
advanced forces, in a report to the General-in-Chief, dated April 19,
1847, (the day following the battle), says:
Of the conduct of the volunteer force under the brave General Shields, I cannot
speak in too high terms. After he was wounded, portions of the three regiments were
with me when I arrived first at the Jalapa road, and drove before them the enemy's
.annoneers from their loaded guns. Their conduct and names shall be the subject of a
special report. (Mess, and Doc. 1&17, p. 2f6.)
From the report of Maj.-Gen. Patterson, coniinanding the volunteer
division at tlie battle of Cerro Gordo, under date of April 23. 1S47. and
made to the commanding General, Ave extract :
"On the afternoon of the ivth, a rapid and continuous fire of artillery and infantry,
nnn luncing that the Second division of the regulars was closely engaged with tlic left
of the neemy's lines, I was instructed, and immediately directed the Third Volnuner
Brigade, under Brig.-(;en. Shicds, to proceed at once to its support. Before the brigade
r«a<hed the position of that division, the action had ceased for the day; the niv'ht
was, however, occupied in establishing several pieces of artillery upon a height ad-
jacent to the "Cerro Gordo."
Early on the morning of the 18th the lirigadc nmvcd to turn the extreme left of tlie
enemy's lines, resting on the Jalapa roid. This was done over rugged ascents and
through dense chapparal, under a service iiul continuous tlank lire from the enemy.
Urig.-Gen. Shields, whilst gallantly leading his command, and forming it for the at-
tack of the enemy, posted in force in his front, fell sever.-ly wcniiidrd. and was carried
from the field.

Now York Ileginiont, under the respective coiunianders, Cols. Foreman and Burnett, and
Major Harris. The rout now becoming' general, the brigade pressed forward in rapid
pursuiP, leaving a sufEcient force to secure the artillery, specie, baggage, provisions
and camp equipage left in our hands."
Later in same report Gen. Patterson says: "The attention of the general-ln-chicf is
particularly called to the gallantry of Brig. -Gens. Pillow and Shields, who were both
wounded at the head of their respective brigades; and to Colonel Baker, who led
Shields' brigade during a severe part of the action, and during the piai^uit; and
Lieut. G. T. M. Davis, Illinois volunteer aid-de-camp to Shields' brigade.
The loss of l)oth regiments is given in the official reports of killed
and Mounded, forwarded to the War Department after the battle, as
follows :
Third Illinois— Killed, 1; wounded, 15; total, IG.
Fourth Illinois— Killed. 5: wounded. 43; total, 48.
This office is in receipt of a letter dated February 5, 1882, from Second
Lieut. W. A. Tinney, of the Fourth Illinois volunteers, in which he
says : "We stormed their fort and put the enemy to flight, taking about
six thousand prisoners, and we captured Gen. Santa Anna's carriage,
also his wooden leg, which I have in my possession.'"
The Third and Fourth Eegiments were sliortly afterward returned
by vessels to New Orleans, wliere tlu-y were discharged from the 23d
to the 25th days of May, 1847.
THE FIFTTT REGIMEXT,
which is known officially as the First Regiment, Illinois A'olunteers
"during the war"' (the other regiments having been enlisted for "twelve
months"), was called out, nnder the requisition made by the Secretary
of War April 19th, 1847, for six thousand more volunteers to "serve dur-
ing the war," to take the i^lace of those whose term of enlistment was
to expire. Of this call, but one regiment was assigned to the State of
Illinois, whicli was organized June 8th, 1847, at Alton, Illinois, by the
election of E. W. B. Xewby as Colonel.
This regiment left Alton by steamer, for Fort Leavenworth June 14,
and from thence marched across the plains to Santa Fe. In October,
1847, the first battalion with a part of a IMissouri regiment marched to
El Paso. The other battalion remained at Santa Fe, as a garrison.
This regiment lost heavily by sickness and exposure in its long marches
across the plains, but was. engaged in no battles or skirmishes with the
enemy. It was mustered out of the service at Alton. Illinois, from tho
15th "to the ISth day of October, ISIS.
THE SIXTH KEOniEXT.
othci-wise known as the Second Ifegiment, enlisted "dui'ing the war."
was organized out of the ovei'II(^w of eomj^anies which \\ere raised for
the Fifth Eegiment.

So much honor had l)een achieved Ijy the four regiments sent out hv
this State the first year of the war, that their ])raise was on every lip,
and tlie young and amhitious were ready to make any sacrifice to he
able to go and fight the ^lexicans. When the call was made for the
Fifth Regiment is was difficult again for the Governor to select, as the
men ])oured in hy liundreds. and enough reported in ten days time to
fill half a dozi'ii regiments. Apjdication was again made to the Secre-
tary of War l)y Lieutenant Colonel Ilicks and others for leave to organ-
ize another regiment. It was hard to refuse tliese veterans of Buena
Vista and Cerro Gordo, and the jjcrmission was granted, and tlie regi-
ment was organized at Alton, Illinois, on the ;)d day of August, 1847,
by the election of J. Collins as Colonel.
Shortly after the regiment was mustered into the United States service
it was forwarded by steamer to Xew Orleans, and there divided into two
battalions. Companies A, D. E, F and H, under command of Colonel
Collins, being sent to Vera Cruz, wlu^re they arrived on the 31st day of
August, 184T. They were shortly afterwards engaged in a skirmish
with the guerrillas, but saw no further actual •service, save the duties
of camp and garrison life. The Second Battalion, under Lieutenant
Colonel Hicks, consisted of Companies B, C, G, I and K, and was for-
warded by vessel to Tampico and there performed garrison duty until
discharged. Both battalions, as the muster rolls show, lost heavily from
sickness, incident to the clinuite, as might have Ijeen expected of raw
and unacclimated men in so dangerous a climate. Tliis regiment was
mustered out on the 20th to the ^oih days of July. 18-IS. at A hen. Illi-

scouting service, and was in several skirmishes with the guerrillas and

XXXII MEXICAN WAH.
Xovember, 18-I8, having served eighteen months in all, being distin-
gnished as the longest term of service of an)^ company from this Stale
in the whole ^\'ar.
CAPT. WYATT B. STAPP's COMPANY.
This company was recruited at Monmouth, in the month of June,
1847, and was mustered in at Quincy, Illinois, on the 10th day of Au-
gust, 1847. Tt lost severely by sickness at Perote and Jalapa, and was
finally returned to the States, without adventure of serious nature, and
was mustered out at Alton on the 3Gth day of July, 1848, lacking fifteen
days of serving one year from the date of muster.
FIRST LIEUT. GEORGE C. LANPHERE,
Of this company, returned home in the spring of 1848, to recruit for
his company, and during the months of March, April and May had re-
cruited thirty-one men [page 309], who were never sent to the company,
but were mustered out by order of the Secretary of War, at Jefferson
Barracks, near St. Louis, Mo., June 28, 1848.
CAPT. MICHAEL K. LAWLElt's COMPANY.
During the month of August, 1847, Capt. Lawler, who was a veteran
of the Black Hawk War, recruited an independent company of cavalry
at Shawnectown, which was mustered into the United States service at
place of enrollment, on August 13, and forwarded to Mexico via the Xew
Orleans route. Except the common experience with fever, reptiles and
insects, this company had no encounter with foes of any kind, and after
some routine service, laborious but unimportant, was returned to place
of enlistment, and mustered out on the 26th day of October, 1848,
CAPT. JOSIAII LITTLES COMPANY
was conspicuous as the last company received into the United States ser-
vice, being mustered in at Alton on the 11th day of September, 1847.
No record of its service has been received, and we can only add that it
was mustered out at the same place July 25, 1848.
"regular" ENLISTMENTS FROM ILLINOIS.
On the lltli day of Feliniary, 1848, Congress passinl an act author-
izing the President to raise ten new regiments for the Pegular Army
to be enlisted for ''during the war." These regiments were all recruited
prior to the 30th of Septeml)er of the same year, and consisted of a regi-
ment of Voltigeurs, eight regiments of Infantry, tlie Xinth, Tenth, Ele-
venth, Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Sixteenth and the
Third regiment of Dragoons. These regiments were recruited at vari-
ous stations all over the United States. Of these regiments the Twelfth,
iiiSTOHicAL :mi:m()i;axd.\. xxxiii
'riurtcciith ami Fourteonth roj^iiiieiits wore recruited by Brig.-Gen. Cl.
M. Brooke, at New Orleans, wliile the Fifteenth and Sixteenth were re-
( ruited by Lieut. Col. J. Erving, at Cincinnati. As will appear by the
rolls pubiislied, Illinois furnishtd two companies for the Sixteenth and
one company for the Fourteenth regiment, under this call. As to the
liistory of these regiments we find that the Fourteenth regiment was bri-
gaded with the Voltigeur regiment and the Eleventh Infantry, and un-
der Brig.-Gen. Cadwalader was engaged in the battle of El Molino del
Key. on the 8th day of September, 1847. Concerning their conduct
Major Gen. Worth, in his oliitial report of the engagement, made to the
Commander-in-Chief, dated Tacayuba, September 10th, 184T, says:
'•I desire to bring tlie notice of the General-in-Chief to the gallantry and good con-
duct of Brig.-Gen. Cadwalader and his command, by which the most timely and es-
sential service was rendered in supporting the attack, and following up the suco'ss.
Such movements as he was directed to malse were executed with zeal and pronipmess,"
Mess, and Doc. 1817, p. 366.)
From a return of killed and wounded in this engagement accompany-
ing this report, it appears that tlie Fourteenth regiment lost, Killed —
I Corporal. ■\Voundod — 1 Field OITkht. 1 Captain, 3 Lieutenants, '?
Corporals and KJ Privates.
Xo official report of the service of the Sixteenth regiment is in posses-
-ion of this office or at present accessible.
By General Order No. 25, A. G. 0., June 8, 18-48, the enlisted men
of tliese two regiments, as well as others enlisted under the same act,
^\ere ordered to be mustered out, the Fourteenth at Xew Orleans, and
the Sixteenth at Newport Barracks, Kentucky, which was done accord-
ingly.
As several recruiting stations were opened in the Southwestern States,
(|uite a number of Illinois men were recruited in the Regular Army
]>n»per, notably in the Fourth regiment. A member of this regiment,
Mr. J. W. Thom.-^on, of Princeton, Illinois, and a private of Company
•A," has kindly furnished us an account of the services of his regiment
m the ^lexiean war, but as we have no official statement of the names
or number of the Illinois men scattered through these regiments, we for-
bear to publish this as well as some other interesting matter which we
hav(» concerning the servicer of the regular regiments in the Mexican
war.
In eltising this memoramla of tlie services of the Illinois soldiers in
the Black Hawk and ^lexiean wars, we can not forbear to mention that
in the voluminous eorrespondenee this t)ihce has had with the survivors
of these wars, the idea seems to be universally prominent with them that
the Geni-ral Government shonltl. in the exercise of that spirit of patri-
otic gratitude, heretofore manifc sted in favor of the soldiers of the revo-
lution and of the war of \X\'l. grant eijually to these surviv<u-s some
further reiognition of their serviees in the way of a pension. Whib' ir

or
is 110 i)art of our duty, in editing this record, to attempt to support, o
further any propositions asking such action by Congress, we may be al
lowed to say. without sulijeeting ourselves to criticism, that there is some
thing in the appearance of the letters of these old veterans of a gener
ation gone Ijefore, which appeals to our liveliest sympathies. They al
most unanimously ask in their (piavering and palsied penmanship, tha
the General Oovernment make some additional provision to secure then
against want in their old age.
