Thirteenth Regiment Infantry. (From "Reminiscences of the War," by Samuel Toombs. Published
by him in 1878.)
- The call for
volunteers under which the Thirteenth was raised,
was issued by President Lincoln, in July, 1862. Ezra
A. Carman, Lieutenant-Colonel Seventh New Jersey
Volunteers, was commissioned by Governor Charles
S. Olden, and the work of recruiting was at once
begun.
The pressing need of troops at the front, stimulated
those who were raising companies for the Thirteenth
Regiment to active work, and as rapidly as enlistments
were made the recruits were taken to Camp Frelinghuysen and assigned to their respective quarters.
Camp Frelinghuysen was located on what is now
called Roseville avenue, a delightful situation, convenient to the city of Newark and the surrounding
towns of Orange, Belleville, Bloomfield, Montclair,
Caldwell, Millburn and South Orange, each of which
places was represented in the regiment. The cities of
Paterson and Jersey City also contributed a number
of men - two companies each.
Life at Camp Frelinghuysen during the brief stay
of the regiment at that point was very enjoyable.
The food was good, with now and then an exception,
and the sports engaged in by the men were of the
most pleasing and exhilarating character, and almost
made those who were not, almost wish they were
soldiers. The only duty was that usually performed
in camp, and but very little of that.
On the 25th of August, the regiment was mustered
into the service of the United States by Louis D.
Watkins, First Lieutenant Fifth United States Cavalry, having a full complement of men and officers.
On Thursday, the 28th, marching orders were received and the regiment was commanded to move
without unnecessary delay. Orders were at once issued forbidding the granting of passes to the men, and
the camp was closed to the public. During the day
the men discussed the situation among themselves,
and it was deemed very unjust that they should not
be given an opportunity to bid their families and
friends good-bye before the departure of the regiment,
and that night a stampede from camp took place,
even the guards throwing down their guns and going
home. The camp presented a very desolate appearance the next morning, but during the day the
men began to return, and before night the camp had
resumed its usual activity. The regiment was supplied with clothing,
blankets, knapsacks and haversacks on Thursday, and on Friday and Saturday the
arms and accoutrements were distributed.
A pleasant incident occurred in camp on Friday, the 39th of August, when the regiment was presented
with a large and handsome bunting flag by several
ladies of Newark. The presentation was made by
Rev. Dr. Levy, then pastor of the South Baptist
Church of Newark. The following account of this
interesting event appeared in the Newark Daily Advertiser the next day:
"At 6 P. M., the regiment was ordered out for dress
parade, and after the usual evolutions, was formed
into a hollow square with a view to a flag presentation. Rev. Mr. Levy, of the South Baptist Church,
accompanied by a number of ladies, one of whom
bore an elegant standard, then advanced to the centre
and made the presentation substantially as follows:
Col. CARMAN: In behalf of Miss Landell, it is my agreeable duty to
present to your Regiment this flag. It is not made for holiday uses, nor
to float in the quiet breezes of home. It is intended for the smoke of
battle, the rallying object in the hour when you and the enemy shall
meet face to face. Woman's hand has wrought it; it remains now for
you and your men to follow and defend it. There has always been, in
times of national danger, a strong incentive to heroic action. It is found
in the participation of the soldier's toils by that sex, whose delicate
nature might well shrink from the tempest of war-in their sympathy
with the sufferings of the brave, and aversion and contempt for the timid
and wavering. The women of Sparta carried their jewels into the public
treasury and gave up their lovers, husbands and sons to their country,
and the narrative of our Revolution is alternately ornamented with
female constancy and manly achievement.
Be assured Colonel, female patriotism still survives ; and while your
Regiment is far away from home and loved ones, tender hearts will be
praying for your success, and gentle hands will be preparing to wreathe
your brows with honor, or strew your graves with flowers.
"After an allusion to the new era in the history of
the war, to be marked with greater energy and boldness, the speaker committed the flag into the keeping
of the Colonel and the Thirteenth Regiment, as an
emblem of our institutions, dear to every patriot.
He called upon them to let its past renown stimulate
them to deeds of heroism, and concluded by invoking
the God of Battles to prosper them as they adhered
to the sacred cause of Liberty.
"Colonel Carman received the standard with the
following remarks:
Kind Sir: In behalf of my fellow officers and the soldiers of my
command, I receive at your hands this elegant standard, prepared by
the ladies of this city. We shall look upon this beautiful flag as no
holiday thing, to be borne merely on parade, but shall follow it to the
battle-field, fight under it, and if need be die beneath its fads, shedding our blood for the glorious cause in which we are engaged. We go
forth as Jerseymen, to sustain the honor of our State which is already
noted for the bravery of its soldiers, the noble deeds of its citizens, and
I may add, the beauty and patriotism of its women. Rest assured Sir,
that though we may be called upon to endure hardships and privations,
the memory of the kind friends at home will ever cheer us and stimulate
us to renewed exertions in this sacred cause. Again Sir, I return you
my thanks.
"The regiment responded to these speeches by loud
and repeated cheers. The standard is made of bunting, handsomely trimmed, and has for its field the
State arms."
The announcement that the regiment would move
on Sunday, or early on Monday morning, brought
crowds of visitors to camp. The scene at Camp
Frelinghuysen on Sunday morning was very affecting.
The parting with wives, mothers, sisters, daughters
and other dear ones, proved a severe trial to most of
the men. Strong men said their last good-bye and
"God bless you," with tears coursing down their
cheeks ; and to many it was indeed a final parting.
The line of march from camp was down Orange to
Broad, to Chestnut street, where the regiment boarded
the train, and arrived in Camden about dusk, where
it crossed the Delaware, and was bountifully entertained
at "The Soldiers Rest" in the "City of Brotherly Love."
On Monday night, September 1st, the regiment
arrived in Washington, and after partaking of breakfast the next morning at the "Soldiers Retreat," the
officers and men took a bird's-eye view of Washington,
and about noon the regiment marched across Long
Bridge, and went into camp at Fort Richardson, on
Arlington Heights.
The stay of the regiment on Arlington Heights,
though short, was delightful. The scenes about them
were historical, and full of interest. The view northward toward Washington, where the stately Capitol
building arose prominent above all its surroundings,
was a pleasant picture. The Capitol presented a magnificent sight in the early morning when the sun
gilded its front, and it was a special object of admiration when lit up at night. Those were the days of
long sessions. The veterans of the Army of the Potomac were encamped between them and Alexandria,
and visits from friends in the old New Jersey brigades
were frequent. The death of General Kearny occasioned deep regret among them, and was the chief
theme of conversation next to the desire for news
from Newark.
The appearance of these old soldiers was in striking
contrast to the Volunteers who were enjoying the
luxury of Sibley tents ; clothing and equipments were
new and in perfect order, and it was difficult to believe that they should ever present an appearance so
devoid of soldierly bearing as the men with whom they
came in daily contact.
On Saturday night, September 6th, the regiment
broke camp and entered upon the Maryland campaign, the objective point being Rockville, Md.,
which place was reached on the next day (Sunday),
when the regiment went into camp two miles north of
the town. Here the regiment was brigaded with the
Second Massachusetts and Thirty-Seventh Indiana, the
whole being assigned to Williams' Division, Banks'
corps. Wednesday, September 10th, moved off along
the direction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad ;
forded the Monocacy River on the 12th, reaching
Frederick City on the morning of the 13th. The
regiment subsequently participated in the capture of
South Mountain Pass, and the battle of Antietam,
where the losses of the regiment were quite severe ;
nine being killed and sixty wounded. The following
names of the killed and wounded are taken from the
State records ; no mention, however, being made of
the wounded, except where a man has been discharged
or died, and in many of these instances the word " Disability " covers cases were discharges have been
granted resulting from other causes.
Company A.-Killed, James M. Taylor. Wounded, William A. Ball,
Charles M. Onghletree, Samuel Question (died Sept. 20th).
Company B.-Killed, William Casey.
Company C-Wounded, Peter Arlington, John 101. Shepherd, George
Meyers (died Out. 26).
Company D.-Killed, James C. Armstrong, Jesse R. Coles, George It.
Harrison, Alexander Osborne. Wounded, George Whitfield, Ira W.
Conselyea, Abram Atkins, John H Egbert, Abram n. Harris, Byron
C. Hopper (died Oct. 12), David S. Milburn (died 0ct. 2), Stephen Freeman.
Company E.-Wounded, Albert Bradley, Frederick Walter, Amzi P.
Williams.
Company F.-Killed, John T. Brant. Wounded, Edwin D. Callen,
Isaac Crawfoid, John Campbell (died Oct. 1), Harvey W. Dobbins,
Samuel C. Shippen, Emanuel Shirdon, John E. Wilson.
Company L-Wounded, William Pell.
Company K-Killed, Captain H. C. Irish, Abraham Margroff.
Wounded, Curtis Bowne (died March 13, 1863), John H. Doremus
(died Dec. 9, 1862), Robert Gaminall (died Dec. 11, 1862), Frederick C.
King (died Sept. 30, 1862).
There being no record of the wounded who afterwards returned to the regiment, it is impossible to
mention by name all the casualties which occurred.
Color Sergeant James Kilroy, of Company G, was
among these, also David Mack, of Company E, and
many others.
Col. Carman was obliged to retire to a hospital during the day, and the command of the
regiment devolved upon Lieutenant-Colonel Robert S. Swords, by whom they were conducted to
the brigade. On the night of the battle the
Color Sergeant, Kilroy, was obliged to relinquish
the colors on account of his wound, and Lieut-Col.
Swords passed down the line asking for a volunteer to
carry the flag. Private George W. Haulenbeck, of
Company F, promptly responded, and though he did
not come up to the standard either in build or height
- he was small of stature and apparently not very
strong-the colors were given to him for a trial. That
night the regiment was posted in the front line of
battle, anticipating a renewal of hostilities on the
18th. Gen. Gordon, in his official report to Gen. A.
S. Williams, who commanded the Corps after the
death of Gen. Mansfield, gives a detailed account of
the part borne by each of the regiments of his brigade
in the fight of the 17th.
We next find the regiment, with the brigade, moving towards Harper's Ferry, which place was reached
on the 23d of September, where it went into camp on
Maryland Heights, opposite the Ferry. Up to this
time the regiment had been in service but twenty-
nine days, and none regretted the prospect of a short
rest, after such a severe campaign in so short a time.
While in camp here, the men were exposed to many
hardships for want of tents and cooking utensils,
until the 17th of October, when the knapsacks they
had left at Rockville a month before, arrived, and
"the boys" were again happy.
During their stay at Harper's Ferry, quite a number
of resignations occurred in the regiment, which gave
general dissatisfaction to the men. They were Capt.
Alex. Vreeland, Company F; Capt. James Brannin,
Company H; Capt. Chas. Mackey, Company I; First
Lieutenant Flavel W. Sullivan, Company F; First
Lieutenant Henry Reynolds, Company I.
The duties of the regiment consisted of daily drills,
picket and camp guard duty and the general routine
of camp life. A good story was told of one of the
camp guards, which will bear repeating here. One
cold, stormy night, after the guards were posted a
member of Company "A," was stationed near the
Commissary tent. The rain came down unmercifully, the wind blew a gale, and he soon became
chilled to the marrow. It seemed an age before the
relief came, and he was about making up his mind
that the guards were all asleep at headquarters when
he heard a body of men approaching. "Halt!" he
shouted, "who comes there?" As the squad of men
advanced, the guard congratulated himself on his
speedy relief from duty, but his dismay can be better
imagined than described when the reply came "Officer
of the Day, on grand rounds." The "grand rounds"
were generally performed at midnight, the Officer of
the Day being escorted to all the posts by a squad of
men from guard headquarters. The poor fellow, wet
through, almost stiffened with the cold, and angry
with himself and everybody else, was in no condition
to appreciate the situation properly, and instead of
saying, "Advance, Officer of the Day, and give the
countersign," he retorted, "The devil take the grand
rounds, I thought it was the Third Relief."
From Harper's Ferry the regiment moved to Sharpsburg, Va., and relieved Fitz John Porter's Corps who
were doing picket duty. The following were the
losses while at Sharpsburg:
Company A, Alexander Mann, died December 5, 1862.
Company C, Ellsworth Brower, died November 8, 1862.
Company E, John Fitzgerald, died November 1, 1862.
Moses L. Rogers, died November 21, 1862.
Company F, Frederick W. Bines, died December 4, 1862,
Company G, Jacob R. Sythoff, died November 26, 1862.
On Thursday, Dec. 11, the regiment was at Loudoun
Heights, Va., and the next day marched to within
two miles of Leesburg. Crossing Goose Creek, the
corps, to which the Thirteenth was attached, marched
some fourteen miles oil the road to Aldie, where a halt
was made. On the 14th, the regiment passed through
Chantilly and entered Fairfax Court House in the
afternoon, halting at Fairfax Station about dusk.
The next day the march was resumed, and crossing
Occoquan Creek at Wolf Run Shoals the regiment
bivouacked for the night about two miles below that
stream. The next camping place of the Thirteenth was
at Stafford Court House, where it went into camp on the
24th of January, 1863, in a thick pine woods about
a mile from the court house. Here the regiment remained for some time, doing light picket duty and
enjoying the sports incident to camp life.
Marching orders were received on the 14th of April,
but the regiment did not move until Monday, the
27th, when, with eight days' rations, the Thirteenth
broke camp, and on Wednesday reached Kelly's Ford,
on the Rappahannock, crossed on a pontoon, pushed
on to the Rapidan, where the men fixed bayonets,
fastened their knapsacks and haversacks to them, and
waded through the river, the water in some places
being over four feet deep, and the next day reached
Chancellorsville, where the Thirteenth participated
in that memorable campaign under Hooker, when the
regiment returned to camp at Stafford Court-House.
Here an account was taken, and the following
casualties reported.

After the battle and return to Stafford Court-House
through a drenching rain, and no tents or blankets
for protection, the next thing to be done was to again
prepare for camp-life. Requisitions were made and
speedily filled, and the camp soon wore its accustomed
appearance, and the regiment naturally fell into the
ordinary routine of duty. In this vicinity the regiment remained until near the commencement of the
Gettysburg campaign, when the order came to "fall
in," and the long and tedious and never-to-be-forgotten marches towards Gettysburg were commenced.
The regiment left Leesburg on Friday, June 26th, crossing the Potomac at Edwards' Ferry, and encamped for
the night at Poolesville and Point of Rocks. The
next day the regiment crossed the Monocacy River,
and passed through Point of Rocks. On Monday, the
29th, the regiment passed through Frederick, thence
through Walkersville, Woodsborough, and Middleburgh, where it encamped for the night. June 30th it
passed through Bruceville, Taneytown, and Littlestown, Pa., where a halt was made. The regiment was
not long in this position before it was brought face to
face with the enemy at Gettysburg, yet not in as
perilous positions as some others, but it performed all
the duties required of it in a manner that elicited
praise from the commanding officers. Its loss during
the battle was but slight, as follows:
Company A.-Wounded, Edward S. Smith.
Company B.-Wounded, Thomas Ferris.
Company C.-Wounded, Captain D. A. Ryerson, Alex. Barnes, Jas.
Winter, James parliament (died July 27th), William Remington.
Company L.-Wounded, James P. Howatt.
Company E.-Wounded, Corporal Thomas H. Williams (leg amputated), John Van Mickle.
Company F.-Wounded, Cornelius Clark.
Company G.-Henry Darnig, killed. Wounded, Captain John H. Arrey, Corporal Cyrus Williams, and John Welsh, drummer.
Company H.-Wounded, David Latourette.
Company I-Wounded, Lieutenant Charles W. Johnson, (acting adjutant), Aaron Chamberlain, S. P. Brown, Valentine Holler.
Company K.-Wounded, Archibald Brown.
Assistant-Surgeon Freeman, of the Thirteenth Regiment, was placed
in charge of the Twelfth Corps FieldHospital, and remained at
Gettysburg while the regiment participated in the pursuit of Lee.
The Federal loss at Gettysburg was twenty-three
thousand one hundred and ninety, of whom two
thousand eight hundred and thirty-four were killed,
thirteen thousand seven hundred and thirty-three
wounded, and six thousand six hundred and forty-three missing. The Confederate loss amounted to
about thirty-six thousand, of whom nearly fourteen
thousand wounded and unwounded remained as prisoners. The entire loss of the Confederates from the
time when they started upon the invasion to the close
of July, when they returned to their starting-point,
was fully sixty thousand.
The morning of the 6th of July, 1863, was rainy
and disagreeable; however, the army was on the march
in pursuit of Lee, and on the 7th the Thirteenth,
for the third and last time, marched through Frederick, Md., then by way of Middletown to Crampton
Gap, through Boonesborough, Rohrersville, and at
last came up with the enemy at Williamsport, on the
12th of July. Lee escaped without a fight, and the
course of the Thirteenth was turned towards Boonesborough, and on the 17th reached Sandy Hook, and
finally, on July 31st, they reached Kelly's Ford.
The camp at Kelly's Ford was located on an open
plain, about two hundred yards from the river. A
day or two after our arrival the enemy's pickets established themselves on the south bank, some distance
from the river, but occasionally a few of them would
come up to the stream and engage in conversation
with the men, generally in the expectation of bartering
tobacco for coffee or salt. The first attempt resulted rather discouragingly for the "Johnnies," as
they were designated. One day a Confederate soldier
made his appearance on the opposite bank of the
river, and yelled out:
"Hello, Yank!"
"Hello, yourself," was the reply.
"Have you got any coffee left?" asked the anxious
Reb.
"Yes," said the Yank, "a little of the kind
we gave you at Gettysburg,"- meaning powder and
ball.
"To h- with Gettysburg. We've had enough of
that."
Finally a good feeling exhibited itself between both
sides, and there were frequent meetings between the
pickets, when exchanges of desirable articles were
made.
Incidents like this and the following were often
indulged in by the old "vets," and sometimes by
those not as old. The following incident was related
by one of the jokers as an actual fact, and shows the
sort of fun indulged in when in camp. On his way
to the spring for a canteen of water, the "old vet"
was met by a " substitute," who came limping towards
him, with a pair of damaged boots in his hand. Stopping the old soldier, he says, "Say, old soldier, do you
have any shoemakers in any of these camps?"
The old soldier stopped a moment, when a bright
idea came to him. (General Knipe, who commanded
the First Brigade, used to be in the shoe business),
and seeing the opportunity of perpetrating a joke, he
said, "Oh, yes. Do you want your boots mended?"
"Yes," said the innocent fellow; "you see we have
had to foot it pretty lively down here from Alexandria, and my boots are all busted out. Where is your
shoemaker?"
The soldier pointed to a row of wall tents that
skirted the woods, and said
"You see that middle tent over there?"
"Yes."
"Well, that's where you will find him when he's
in. You just go up and ask for General Knipe - we
call him General down here, and he might get mad if
you called him anything else. He'll attend to you."
"What does he charge?"
"Oh, he's reasonable enough. You go right up
there and you'll find out all about the cost."
The poor fellow went up, and was of course accosted by the guard, with - " What do you want?"
"I want to see General Knipe."
"Well, there's his tent," said the guard, pointing it
out to him.
The man knocked on the pole in front, and the
General spoke up quick
"Who's there? Come in."
He went in and asked if that was General Knipe.
"Yes," said he.
"Well," said the fellow, " I've got a pretty bad pair
of boots here, and I'd like to have you fix them up
for me right away. Pin in dreadful need of 'em,
and" -
General Knipe, who had risen from his couch when
the man entered the tent, caught the recruit by the
collar of his coat, and was about to administer a severe castigation to the poor dupe, when he suddenly
took in the situation and bade him begone and not be
made a fool of again.
There was one death in the regiment while encamped
at Kelly's Ford. Andrew Anderson, of Company H, who died from typhoid fever.
Surgeon J. J. H. Love was assigned to the duties of
Surgeon-in-Chief of the First Division, on the 1st of
August, by special orders from corps headquarters.
A new departure was now to take place. The old
Eleventh and Twelfth Corps, with General Joseph E.
Hooker in command, were to be transferred to new
fields, where other battles were to be fought, victories
gained and laurels heaped upon their deserving
brows. The Thirteenth, with other troops; left Raccoon Ford, Va., on the 24th of September, 1863, and
went by railroad to Nashville, Tenn., and soon became a part of the grand army operating in and
around Chattanooga, and which soon became the Army
of the Cumberland. The Thirteenth took active part
in the battles of Lookout Mountain, or "The Battle
among the Clouds," also all other engagements where
General Hooker was the grand moving spirit.
From this time forward, in the "grand march to
the sea," and to the final collapse of the so-called
in the great drama, and when, and not till then, the
last " reb " had grounded arms, did the old Thirteenth
turn its back to the sunny south, and look forward to
the happy time when those of the old guard that were
left could greet loved ones at home, turn their instruments of war into implements of husbandry, and
Confederacy, the Thirteenth performed well its part
learn war no more forever.
The Final Muster Out.-On Thursday, June 8th,
the muster out rolls were signed by the proper officers,
and on Friday, June 9th, the regiment took passage
on the cars at Washington for home At Baltimore a
telegram was sent to Newark with the information that the regiment was on its way home. Major
Arey had started for Newark in advance of the regiment
that morning, and every one naturally anticipated an enthusiastic welcome. Saturday morning
shortly after daylight, they passed through Philadelphia, and about two o'clock in the afternoon the train
stopped at the Market street depot, Newark. No one
was there to receive them. They formed in line across.
Market street and awaited further orders. All were
anxious to get home. A shower of rain fell and the
men became dissatisfied with the delay. At last
Tucker Council of the Union League, with a band of
music appeared, and taking up position at the head
of the line, the column moved through the crowd
which had by this time congregated. The command
was halted in front of Lockwood's Hotel, and after
listening to an address of welcome by Mayor Runyon,
which was replied to by Colonel Carman, the regiment moved up to Broad street, and thence to Ward
United States Hospital, near the Centre street depot,
where guns were stacked and the men dismissed.
Battles of the Regiment.-The Thirteenth Regiment New Jersey Volunteer Infantry was mustered
into the service of the United States, for three years,
on the 25th of August, 1862, at Camp Frelinghuysen,
Newark, N. J., and was mustered out on the 8th day
of June, 1865, by reason of the close of the war.
