         From Vicksburg the regiment went to Mechanicsville, Miss., thence to Snyder's Bluff, May 31, 1863, where they remained until June 4. They were then ordered back to Vicksburg, where they stayed until the 23rd of the same month, when they were removed to Fox Plantation, Miss., thence to Jackson, thence to Black River Bridge, July 13th. Two days later they went to Clinton, Miss., thence returned to Black River Bridge and back once more to Vicksburg July 28, remaining till the 21st of August, when they moved to Monroe, La., then to Bayou Macon and back again to Vicksburg, where they remained most of the time until March 13.

         From Vicksburg the regiment came to Davenport on veteran furlough and remained from March 22, 1864, to April 25, when once more shouldering their guns, they started for the scene of strife, and going by the way of Cairo, 1ll., Paducah, Kentucky, Clifton, Tenn., and Huntsville, Ala., arriving at Kenesaw Mountain, Ga., June 16, 1864, and were before Atlanta from July 17 to August 25, from there moved to East Point, Ga., Sept. 9, 1864, and were mustered out of service at Louisville, Ky., July 15, 1865, and disbanded at Davenport.
