HISTORICAL SKETCH
TWENTY-EIGHTH REGIMENT IOWA VOLUNTEER
INFANTRY
The Twenty-eighth Regiment of Iowa Infantry was organized under authority of the
proclamation of President Lincoln, bearing date July 2, 1862. The ten companies of which it was
composed were ordered into quarters by Governor Kirkwood, on dates ranging from July 24 to
September 8, 1862. Camp Pope, near Iowa City, was designated as its place of rendezvous, and,
there, on October l0, 1862, the regiment was mustered into the service of the United States, by
Captain H. B. Hendershott, of the Regular Army. At the completion of the muster rolls, the
regiment had an aggregate strength of 956, including one additional enlistment. 1 But little time
was given the officers and men to learn their duties as soldiers before they were ordered to take
the field. They had only acquired the rudiments of military knowledge and we yet to gain, in the
hard school of the soldier in time of war, that practical knowledge which would enable them to
make for themselves and their regiment a record of which they could all feel justly proud. The
regiment was composed of the same class of men that had already won honor and glory for the
State of Iowa on the battlefields of the South; these men of the Twenty-eighth Iowa needed only
the opportunity and the experience, (which had come to their comrades who had preceded them
to the field,) and—as will be shown in this brief sketch—they were to have both in full measure.
Their short stay in rendezvous was improved to the best advantage and, when the order to move
south was received, the regiment was probably as well prepared for active service as any of those
which had been mustered in at an earlier period of the war.
On November 2, 1862, the regiment was ordered to proceed to Davenport at which place it
was to await further orders. After considerable delay in procuring transportation, the regiment
embarked on steamer, and was conveyed to Helena, Ark., where it arrived November 20th, and
went into camp. A week later, a detachment of three hundred men of the regiment, under
command of Major Lynch, joined the command of General Hovey upon an expedition, the main
object of which was to divert the attention of the enemy from the moment of General Grant's
army, then moving toward Vicksburg. The troops under General Hovey did not encounter any
considerable force of the enemy and the only casualty sustained by the detachment from the
Twenty-eighth Iowa was one man killed, (Private William M. Hall, of Company C,)—the first
man of the regiment who fell in defense of his country. The troops engaged upon this expedition
returned to Helena on December 7th. The march had been rapid and toilsome and the men
suffered greatly from the inclemency of the weather. In the meantime, that portion of the
regiment which had remained in camp had suffered almost equal hardship. The camp was
located on low ground and the continuous rains had made it but little better than a swamp. The
regiment soon after moved its encampment to higher ground, but sickness prevailed to an
alarming extent. Many of the men died. Survivors of the regiment recall that winter in Helena
and the regions adjacent (which comprised the territory covered by the operations of the troops)
as the most gloomy and depressing period in all their experience as soldiers.

On January 11, 1863, the regiment embarked on steamer and proceeded, with other troops,
under command of General Gorman, on an expedition up the White River, to Devall's Bluff. The
weather conditions were the worst ever known in that part of the country. Soon after the fleet got
under way a heavy rain began, which soon changed to snow and freezing temperature; the decks
of the boats were covered with ice, and the troops suffered intensely from the cold. The boats
were crowded and but few could procure shelter, most of the men being completely exposed,
their clothing saturated, and many were nearly frozen. The result of this frightful exposure was
death to many and permanent disability to many more. The expedition returned to Helena on
January 23rd. The results were meager, as compared with the amount of suffering and death
involved. Some prisoners were captured, but no great amount of damage was inflicted upon the
enemy. Rude log cabins were constructed for winter quarters, in which the men were somewhat
more comfortable than they had been in tents, but the winter of 1863 was the most disastrous
period in the history of the regiment, in the number of deaths from disease and discharges for
disability resulting from the same cause.
On February 14th, a large force, under command of General Washbern, left Helena for the
purpose of removing obstructions from the Yazoo Pass and securing a navigable channel through
the tortuous windings of that stream. In this arduous labor the men and officers of the Twentyeighth
Iowa, who were table for duty, participated and, when the work was completed, returned
to Helena. With the opening of spring the health of the men was. somewhat improved, and they
were cheered by the prospect of a speedy removal from winter quarters and the transfer from an
environment that had been the scene of the struggle of so many of their comrades with sickness
and death. On the 11th of April, 1863, the regiment, with its brigade,—consisting of the Fortyseventh
Indiana, Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth Iowa, and the Fifty-sixth Ohio designated as
the Second Brigade of the Twelfth Division, Thirteenth Army Corps,—entered upon the
Vicksburg campaign, which resulted in such important victories to the Union armies, under the
command of General Grant. The first general engagement in which the Twenty-eighth Iowa
participated, in that great campaign, was at Port Gibson, May 1, 1863. Colonel William E. Miller
had resigned on March 13,1863, and Lieutenant-Colonel Connell had been promoted to Colonel
of the regiment. His official report of the operations and conduct of his regiment, in its first
conflict with the enemy, is here quoted in full:
Colonel—I send the following as the report of the action taken by my command in the battle
of Port Gibson, on May 1, 1863. On the evening of April 30, we were landed on the bank of the
Mississipp1, and started for Port Gibson. At 1 o'clock A. M., of May 1st, we could distinctly hear
the boom of artillery in our advance. We quickened our pace and arrived at the foot of
Thompson's Hill at sunrise. General Hovey, commanding our division, rode up and said, "Boys,
prepare your breakfast soon, for we go into battle In half an hour." After breakfast I formed in
line or battle, and moved to the west of Thompson's Hill, where we remained one hour under
fire. Three companies, -B, G, and K,—were at this time sent to support the Thirty-fourth Indiana
in a charge on a rebel battery, which was taken, with about 300 prisoners. After this I reformed
the regiment, and was ordered to the extreme left (by General McClernand), which was
vigorously attacked by the enemy. upon arriving at this point, I found that the enemy had massed
a large force to turn our left, among which were two Missouri regiments; who were placed
directly in our front. I formed my command so as to meet them, and, after a contest of nearly two
hours, the enemy fell back, and we succeeded in planting the Eighth Michigan Battery on the
knoll we held against the charge of the enemy, which
battery played with telling effect on their
3
lines. At about 4 P. M. they again appeared in force, still attempting to turn our left; but after a
brisk engagement of about one hour they retired in confusion. A company of skirmishers, having
been sent out to the left and front of our lines, discovered a refuel battery, which had command
of the Port Gibson road. Our artillery soon got into position and commenced shelling it. My
command lay in support until the battery had silenced the enemy's guns. By this time it was
nearly dark, and General Stevenson, coming up, relieved us from the left, and we rejoined our
brigade, which was encamped for the night on the field. There we lay on our arms, in support of
the Peoria battery during the night. With regard to the conduct of the officers and men during the
action, I can only speak in terms of highest commendation. Although they had marched all day
and night previous to the engagement, carrying three days' rations and one hundred rounds of
cartridges to the man, and having never been under fire before, they fought with that fearless
spirit and determination which has always characterized the American soldier.

2 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1867, Vol. 2, page 602.
In the official report of the brigade commander, Colonel James R. Slack, of the Forty-seventh
Indiana, the following reference is made to the two Iowa regiments which were detached from
the brigade and rendered important service as reinforcements to the troops of General Logan's
division at a critical period in the battle: "In the afternoon the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth
Iowa were ordered to the rear and extreme left of the line, to support Major General Logan's
division; which was hotly engaged, and there continued fighting like veterans, as men of that
gallant State always have done, until the enemy was driven from the field and utterly routed at
every point, and the curtain of night closed the scene." 3 Colonel Slack highly commends the
conduct of the field and line officers of his brigade, and makes special mention of Lieutenant
Theodore Schaeffer, of Company F, Twenty-eighth Iowa, who rendered most efficient service as
Aide on the staff of the brigade commander. The report gives the number of casualties in the
brigade as follows: Killed, 16; wounded, 62; missing, 11; total, 89. The casualties in the Twentyeighth
Iowa were: Killed, 3; wounded, 14; missing, 3; total, 20. It will thus be seen that, in its
first battle, the Twenty-eighth Iowa had sustained about the average loss of the other regiments
of its brigade and had won for itself an honorable record. Its officers and men could now go
forward with the feeling that they had established a reputation which they were in duty bound to
sustain. They had passed the crucial period in their history, and could face the future with that
confident feeling of self reliance which sustained them in all the conflicts in which they were
subsequently engaged.

inclusive.

Statement of Casualties at the battle of Port Gibson.
In the pursuit of and operations against the enemy, which followed, the Twenty-eighth Iowa
performed its full share of duty and, on May 16th,
participated in the hard-fought battle of
4
Champion's Hill, in which it bore a most conspicuous part and suffered heavy loss. In the official
report of the brigade commander, the preliminary movements of his command and the
skirmishing which took place prior to the commencement of the battle are described in detail.
The report occupies too much space to permit its being quoted in full but a brief extract will
suffice to show the desperate character of the fighting which ensued. After the skirmishing had
been in progress for one hour and the position of the enemy had been developed, Colonel Slack
was ordered to move his brigade forward to the attack. He thus describes the movement and that
part of the engagement in which his brigade sustained its heaviest loss:
.....I advanced the whole line, with the Forty-seventh Indiana on the right and the Twenty-eighth
Iowa on the left. The thick growth of underbrush and vines and the ravines and hills made it very
difficult to advance, but it was accomplished with little disorder, until we reached the crest of the
hill, where we found the enemy in very heavy force, about 200 yards in front of us, and under
cover of a wood beyond a field. Then the battle began with great fury, our troops advancing for
the purpose of driving the enemy from the cover of the woods, which was done at double quick
and, in a most gallant manner. the men loading and firing as they advanced, and unfalteringly
receiving a most deadly fire from the enemy: yet they pressed forward as men only can do who
are prompted by intelligent motives of patriotic devotion to a common country, until the rebel
force was driven from the covering and forced to fall back a distance of 200 yards, with terrible
loss, the ground being literally covered with dead and wounded rebels. In this daring and
determined charge all the regiments lost most severely. . . . .5

Report of Colonel James R. Slack. commanding Second Brigade, Twelfth Division, Thirteenth
Army Corps.
There was much more fighting before the battle was ended, in which the Twenty-eighth Iowa
bore its full part. At one time the enemy gained a temporary advantage. The Twenty-fourth Iowa
had advanced beyond the other three regiments of the brigade and, by a gallant charge, had
succeeded in capturing a rebel battery. The enemy. being reinforced, made a counter charge and
recaptured the battery, when the Twenty-eighth Iowa, Forty-seventh Indiana and Fifty-sixth Ohio
advanced to the support of the Twenty-fourth Iowa, and the reunited brigade charged upon the
enemy. The rebel battery was again captured and, reinforcements coming up, the enemy, after
making a most desperate resistance, was driven from the field with heavy loss. At the close of his
report, Colonel Slack highly commends the conduct of the officers and men of each of the
regiments of his brigade, and again makes special mention of the efficient service rendered by
Lieutenant Theodore Schaeffer of the Twenty-eighth Iowa, who, as a member of his staff, rode
along the lines under the fire of the enemy, carrying his orders to the regimental commanders.
The casualties in the brigade were as follows: Killed, 108; wounded, 365; captured or missing,
93; total, 566. The total losses, by regiments, were as follows: Forty-seventh Indiana, 140;
Twenty-fourth Iowa, 189; Twenty-eighth Iowa, 97; Fifty-sixth Ohio, 138; First Missouri Battery,
2; total, 566. General Alvin P. Hovey, the division commander, reports the number of his
command engaged as follows: First Brigade, 2,371; Second Brigade, 1,809; total, 4,180. Of this
number there were 211 killed, 872 wounded and 119 missing; a total loss in the division of
1,202, 6—over 28 per cent of the number engaged. Two-hundred-twenty-one of the enemy's
dead were buried on the field in front of the positions occupied by the troops of General Hovey's
Division, and, upon the presumption that none of the enemy's dead were removed, the number
killed on both sides was about the same. The number of
rebel prisoners taken by General
5
Hovey's Division was 700, while he reports but 119 captured or missing from his command.
Sixteen guns of the rebel batteries were captured by the division Of the Twenty-fourth and
Twenty-eighth Iowa, General Hovey says:
.....Not more than six months in the service, their record will compare with the oldest and best
tried regiments in the field. All honor is due to their gallant officers and men; and Colonels
Byam and Connell have my thanks for the skill with which they handled their respective
commands. and for the fortitude, endurance and bravery displayed by their gallant men" The
General also makes special mention of the gallantry and devotion to duty of Surgeon Vest and
Chaplain Simmons of the Twenty-eighth Iowa. 7 Adjutant Joseph G. Strong, of the Twentyeighth,
—whose description of the part taken by his regiment in the battle of Champion's Hill is
in accord with that portion of Colonel Slack's report from which quotation has been made,—
says: "....Four companies of the regiment came out of the fight without a commissioned officer.
Lieutenant John J. Legan, of Company A, (Captain Shutts acting as Major,) was killed while
gallantly leading his men; Captain Benjamin F. Kirby, of Company I, was also killed while doing
his duty nobly; Lieutenant John Buchanan, of Company H, lost his arm; Captain John C. Staley,
of Company F, was taken prisoner while crossing the field north of the Raymond Road, gallantly
disputing the advance of the enemy. ., 8 There is a slight discrepancy in the number of killed and
wounded as given in the report of Adjutant Strong and the tabulated statement of the War of the
Rebellion Record, the one giving the total as 100, the other as 97. As the keeper of the
regimental records, the statement of the Adjutant—with the list of the names, numbering by
actual count an even 100—must officially determine the matter. Such discrepancies are
frequently found in officials reports, and are accounted for by the returns of losses being made
up on the field immediately after the close of battles, and which are subsequently found not to
include all the names which should have been reported. It will be seen from the foregoing reports
that the Twenty-eighth Iowa fully sustained the splendid reputation of the soldiers of Iowa, in the
hard-fought battle of Champion's Hill. In transmitting his report to Adjutant General Baker,
Adjutant Strong says: "The Twenty-eighth has added new laurels to the noble young State of
Iowa, and will continue to do so." How well and faithfully that promise was fulfilled will be
shown in the subsequent history of the regiment.

Champion's Hill. The names of all the killed and wounded in these as well as the other
engagements in which the regiment participated, together with all casualties from whatever
cause. will be found noted in the subjoined Roster. The compiler has made diligent search for the
official report of Colonel John Connell, who commanded the Twenty-eighth Iowa at the battle of
Champion's Hill, but has failed to find it, either in the Reports of the Adjutant General of Iowa or
the Official Reports of the War of the Rebellion, published by the War Department.
Soon after the battle of Champion's Hill, the regiment, with its brigade and division, marched
by way of Edwards' Station to Black River, where it remained for a few days guarding the
bridge, and then marched to the rear of the enemy's outer
works at Vicksburg, where, on May
6
25th, it was assigned to a position near the center of the left wing of the investing army. During
the long siege which followed, the Twenty-eighth Iowa performed its full share of the arduous
duties involved in the operations against the formidable works of the enemy, who made a most
gallant defense of that almost impregnable stronghold. General C. P. Hovey, at the close of his
official report of the operations of his division, says: "Officers and men displayed great firmness,
coolness and bravery during this ever memorable siege, and I cannot discriminate among them."
There were ten infantry regiments in the Twelfth Division, and General Hovey reports his loss
during the siege: Killed, 19; wounded, 76; total 95. 9 Of this number the Twenty-eighth Iowa
lost 3 killed and 7 wounded. The regiment also lost during the same period, by death from
disease, 16, and by discharge for disability, 7; making its total casualties at the siege of
Vicksburg, 33. The regiment had thus sustained its full average share of casualties at the hands of
the enemy during the prolonged contest, and had shown itself the equal of any of the veteran
organizations with which it was associated.

had but one man wounded.
11 War of the Rebellion Official Records, Vol. 24, Series 1, Part 2, pages 603 to 605,
inclusive; Reports No. 29 and 30. In making this reference, the compiler has in mind the
tremendous loss of another Iowa regiment, during the siege of Jackson, in obedience to an order
from an officer high in command, and which should not have been given. The loss was followed
by no more important results than were accomplished by the Twenty-eighth Iowa on the same
day, without loss. Both regiments implicitly obeyed orders the one protected and fighting behind
breastworks, the other assaulting the strongest position on the line of the enemy's fortifications,
without support, and suffering a loss, in killed and wounded, of nearly one-half its number
engaged.
On the 4th day of July, 1863, General Grant announced to his army the glad tidings of the
surrender of Vicksburg. General Hovey received orders to report with his division to Major
General Sherman, and, on the morning of July 5th, his troops were again upon the march, in
pursuit of the rebel army, commanded by General Johnston. The Twenty-eighth Iowa performed
its full share of duty during the short campaign which ensued, ending with the evacuation of
Jackson, Miss., by the rebel army on July 16th. Its casualties were light, as shown by the report
of the brigade commander. 10 It suffered much hardship, however, both upon the march and in
the trenches before Jackson, obeyed every order with alacrity and acquitted itself with honor,
receiving the commendation of its division and brigade commanders. 11
The regiment returned to Vicksburg, at the conclusion of the Jackson campaign, and went
into camp there on the evening of July 27th. A few days later it embarked on steamer and was
conveyed to Natchez, Miss., where it remained but a short time, and, again embarking, was
conveyed to Carrollton, near New Orleans. Going into camp, the regiment enjoyed a season of
rest for nearly a month, during which time the health of the men was greatly improved. On
September 13, 1863, the Twenty-eighth Iowa joined the troops under command of General
Franklin, in an expedition which extended to the western
part of the State of Louisiana. While no
7
considerable force of the enemy was encountered on the expedition, there were several
skirmishes, and the record shows that the regiment had six men captured. No detailed report of
the operations of the regiment during this period is found, and it does not appear that any
important results were accomplished, although a wide extent of territory was covered by the
troops. The regiment returned to New Orleans and moved thence to Algiers, arriving at the latter
place December 25, 1863, where it remained until about the middle of January, 1864, when it
moved to Madisonville, near the northern shore of Lake Pontchartrain. While encamped at that
place a considerable number of recruits joined the regiment, and its numbers were further
increased by the return to duty of many who had recovered from wounds and sickness.
About the last of February the regiment moved to New Orleans, crossed the river and again
went into camp at Algiers. A few days later it moved to Brashier, crossed the bay and, going into
camp, awaited the arrival of the troops with which it was to cooperate on the famous and—as the
event proved— ill-fated Red River Campaign. On March 12, 1864, the Twenty-eighth Iowa and
the other regiments of its brigade—the Twenty-fourth Iowa, Forty-seventh .Indiana and Fiftysixth
Ohio, with which it had been so long associated— again took up the line of march. The
regiment had at that time 550 men on duty, in good health and spirits and ready to meet the
enemy with confidence, in themselves and the officers who commanded them. The campaign
began with bright prospects for complete success, and had the General who had been placed in
command of all the Union forces possessed the same ability shown by several of his subordinate
officers, or had he been guided by their advice and suggestions, success instead of failure would
have resulted. The only notable engagement in which the Twenty-eighth Iowa participated in the
Red River Campaign was at the battle of Sabine Cross Roads, in which it bore a most
conspicuous part and sustained the greatest loss, in killed and wounded, of any regiment in its
brigade or division. Colonel John Connell commanded the regiment and directed its movements
until near the close of the engagement, when he was severely wounded and fell into the hands of
the enemy. Captain Thomas Dillin then succeeded to the command of the regiment and, a few
days later, submitted his official report of its conduct during the battle. He describes in detail the
terrific fighting which took place and the gallant manner in which his regiment stemmed the
unequal tide of battle and held its last position for two hours, only giving way when its
ammunition was exhausted and there was no alternative but to retreat or surrender. A part of the
concluding portion of Captain Dillin's excellent report is here given, as follows:
We went into the engagement 500 strong, and in the best of order . . . All most nobly did
their duty. Not an officer flinched, not a man gave back. Colonel John Connell had his horse shot
under him early in the action but he remained on the field, cheering and urging his men to the
last, and, it was supposed. fell mortally wounded while retreating from the field. Loved most by
those who knew him best, his loss to the regiment is irreparable. He possessed not only the
respect but the affection of his men. 12 Adjutant J. G. Strong, while heroically and fearlessly
doing his duty, was knocked from his horse by a minie-ball. inflicting a severe wound in the
right shoulder. and was taken from the field. Having his wound dressed, he returned to the field
and continued rallying the men in the thickest of the fire. First Lieutenant H. H. Weaver was
wounded in the right cheek while leading his company and was compelled to leave the field.
Second Lieutenant O. F. Dorrance, while cheering his men in action, was severely wounded in
the right hip and had to he borne from the field. I regret that space will not permit me to speak of
all the officers standing up bravely and racing the rain of death, and of the non-commissioned
officers and privates, many of whom fell in the conflict, yielding up their lives upon their
country's altar. . . . 13
8
12 Colonel Connell's wound although severe was not mortal. He was taken prisoner, but was
subsequently exchanged and returned to his regiment.
13 War of the Rebellion Official records, Vol. 34, Series 1, Part 1, pages 287 to 289
inclusive.
The casualties in the battle of Sabine Cross Roads were: 8 killed, 41 wounded and 26
captured,—the greater number of the latter supposed to be wounded,—making a total loss of 75.
The report of the brigade commander— Colonel W. H. Raynor of the Fifty-sixth Ohio—gives
the numbers of the different regiments engaged and their casualties, as follows: Twenty-eighth
Iowa, 419 ;Twenty-fourth Iowa, 188; Fifty-sixth Ohio, 243 total 840. Loss of Twenty-fourth
Iowa and Fifty-sixth Ohio, 70; Twenty-eighth Iowa. 75; total loss of brigade, 145. 14 It will thus
be seen that the Twenty-eighth Iowa sustained a loss of more than that of the other two
regiments, owing to the fact that it occupied a more advanced position and was compelled to
fight its way out, after the enemy had gained its rear. In the official report of Colonel Raynor,
(heretofore referred to,) the following reference is made to the heroic conduct of the commander
of the regiment: "Colonel John Connell, of the Twenty-eighth Iowa, is among the missing, and is
supposed to have been mortally wounded. Brave, even to a fault, he remained on the field too
late and was seen to fall before the last heavy volley poured upon the devoted division. His loss
will be severely felt, not only by his regiment, where it is irreparable, but by his brother officers
and comrades in arms, to whom his many noble and generous qualities had endeared him."
Colonel Raynor also mentions the gallant conduct of Thomas Hughes, of the Twenty-eighth
Iowa, who was Acting Brigade Quarter-master, and was captured with Colonel Connell.
14 War of the Rebellion Official records, Vol. 34, Series I. Part 1, pages 259 and 286.
The retreat continued during the night, and, on the morning of April 9th Instead of retaining
every man of his available force to meet the victorious enemy, General Banks ordered his
cavalry, and that portion of the infantry which had fought the enemy at such a disadvantage the
day before, to proceed with the trains to Grand Ecore. Had he kept his army intact, instead of
withdrawing a portion of it in the face of the enemy, there is every reason to believe that he could
have won a decisive victory in the battle of Pleasant Hill on the 9th of April, 1864. The officers
and men who had met defeat the day before were ready and anxious to assist in retrieving the
disaster, but were denied the privilege by the officer who had shown his unfitness to command
an army. The Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth Iowa were thus compelled to ac as train guards
on the march to Grand Ecore, while their comrades of the Fourteenth, Twenty-seventh, Thirtysecond
and Thirty-fifth Iowa, were braver fighting at Pleasant Hill, and—as admitted by General
Banks-saving the army from utter defeat at the hands of the enemy. 15
15 War of the Rebellion Official Records, Vol. 34, Series I Part 1, page 309. Report of
General C. J. Smith, to whom General Banks said upon the field at Pleasant Hill, "God bless you,
General, you have saved the army."
The subsequent experience of the Twenty-eighth Iowa, in the closing scenes of the Red River
Campaign, was marked by toilsome marches an great hardships. It halted for a time at Grand
Ecore, where it assisted in the construction of fortifications which were soon abandoned, then
marched with the army to Alexandria, and thence by way of
Marksville to Morganza where it
9
arrived on May 22nd. About this time the troops with which the regiment was operating passed
from the command of General Banks to the of General Canby and, instead of continuing the
retreat, assumed an aggressive attitude toward the enemy. In the movement which followed, the
Twenty-eighth Iowa participated. The enemy declined to accept the gage of battle, and managed
his retreat so successfully that the pursuit was finally abandoned. Returning to Morganza, the
regiment embarked for Carrollton arriving there about the middle of June. During most of the
operations of the Twenty-eighth Iowa on the Red River Campaign, Lieutenant Colonel Wilson
and Major Meyer had been absent on recruiting service in Iowa, an the former had rejoined the
regiment at Grand Ecore, bringing with him a number of recruits. This compensated in some
degree for the loss which had been sustained, and the regiment was ready and anxious to enter
upon another campaign. Colonel Connell had been released from prison and rejoined, his
regiment at Carrollton, with an empty sleeve hanging by his side. As heretofore stated, he was
supposed to have been mortally wounded at the time of his capture. He received a joyful
welcome at the hands of the officers and men of his own regiment and from those of the brigade,
in which he had many warm friends. The regiment, with other troops, soon moved again in
pursuit of the rebel forces, but did not succeed in overtaking them, and returned to Algiers,
where it went into camp and enjoyed a brief season of rest.
On July 22, 1864, the Twenty-eighth Iowa embarked on the Steamer "Arago," and was
conveyed to Alexandria, Va., where it arrived and disembarked on the 2nd of August. The
voyage had been marked by great hardship on account of extremely hot weather and the crowded
condition of the ship, and the men were glad to find themselves once more upon the land. The
regiment was conveyed by ferry to Washington, and from thence marched to Tennallytown
where it went into camp and remained until the commencement of General Sheridan's Campaign
in the Shenandoah Valley. The first engagement of that Campaign in which the Twenty-eighth
Iowa participated was the battle of Winchester, September 19, 1864. Lieutenant Colonel B. W.
Wilson was in command of the regiment during the battle and wrote the official report, which is
here given in full:
HEADQUARTERS, TWENTY-EIGHTH IOWA INFANTRY VOLUNTEERS,
FOURTH BRIGADE:, SECOND DIVISION, NINETEENTH ARMY CORPS,
NEAR HARRISONBURG, VA., Sept. 26, 1864.
Colonel: In compliance with orders from Brigade Headquarters, I submit the following report
of the part taken by my regiment in the engagement near Winchester, Va. on the 19th day of
September. 1864. Early on the morning of the 19th inst., I broke camp near Berryville, Va., and
advanced with the rest of the brigade on the Winchester Pike. After crossing the Opequam we
formed in line of battle, my regiment occupying the extreme left of the brigade. On receiving
orders to advance, I immediately moved forward and was soon warmly engaging the enemy. The
First Brigade of our division (being in advance) gave way, and were pressed back through our
lines, yet we moved steadily forward for about fifty yards, under one of the most withering fires
of shot, shell and canister, I have ever witnessed. Here I was ordered to halt. At this point the
fighting was most terrific, yet I am happy to say none showed a disposition to either flinch from
duty or fall back. We remained in this position until the right of the brigade, being pressed back,
exposed my command to a severe flank fire, and I was forced to fall back a short distance to the
cover of the timber, where we rallied and drove back the enemy, who were in the act of charging
one of our batteries (the First Maine). We soon charged forward and took possession of our
former position, where we remained until, our ammunition being expended. we were relieved by
troops from General Crooks' command. We then obtained a
fresh supply of ammunition and
10
pressed forward to the front line again, where we remained until ordered to join the brigade in
pursuit of the retreating foe. We followed them beyond Winchester. Here, night overtaking us,
we lay down to rest and dream over the events of the day. Too much cannot be said in praise of
both officers and men, who stood boldly forth in defense of the old flag, and did their duty so
nobly. Not an officer flinched nor a man gave back, except by my order. I cannot forbear making
special mention of the following officers for their gallantry on the field: Captain J. W. Carr, of
Company C, was severely wounded, yet he continued to cheer the men under his command until
borne from the field. Adjutant Joseph G. Strong was wounded in the early part of the
engagement, had his wounds dressed on the field. and refused to leave the same, although
advised to do so by surgeons, but continued to rally and cheer the men until victory was ours. He
is a brave and fearless officer and worthy of promotion. First Lieutenant D. S. Dean of Company
C was wounded, and told his own son not to leave the ranks to assist him, until the rebels were
whipped, and he did not, until ordered to do so by me. Appended you will please find a list of
killed, wounded and missing.
With high respect, I remain,
B. W. WILSON, Lieutenant Colonel
Commanding Twenty-eighth Iowa Infantry. D. SHUNK, Colonel
Eighth Indiana Veterans,
Commanding Fourth Brigade, Second Division, Nineteenth Army Corps. 16
16 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1865, Vol. 2, pages 1182, 3.
The casualties among commissioned officers of the regiment, not mentioned in the official
report, were: Captain Palmer, killed; Captain Houseworth, mortally wounded; Captain Wilson,
wounded, and Lieutenants Haverly Summers and O'Hair, wounded; total 9 (including 3
mentioned in report). The casualties among enlisted men were as follows: Killed, 11; wounded,
55. missing, 25; total, 100. 17 The Twenty-eighth Iowa had again gloriously maintained the
honor of its State, while fighting by the side of the trained veterans of the eastern army.
17 Report Of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1865, Vol. 2, pages 1183, 4.
The army under General Sheridan pressed forward after its Victory at Winchester and, on the
morning of September 22nd, found the rebel forces strongly entrenched at Fisher's Hill. In the
battle which ensued, the Twenty-eighth Iowa was not ordered into action until just before the
enemy abandoned his position and began to retreat, when it was ordered to make a charge, in
which it captured a six gun battery, a large quantity of ammunition and a number of prisoners. In
this charge the regiment had five men wounded. 18 In his official report, Lieutenant Colonel
Wilson describes the different positions he was ordered to occupy, the gallant manner in which
his regiment responded to the order to charge, and again commends his officers and men for their
bravery and good conduct in action. The regiment did not again come into conflict with the
enemy until the 19th of October, 1864, on which date it fought its last battle. The battle of Cedar
Creek, Va., was one of the most notable of the great battles of the war. It is fitting, therefore, that
the excellent report of Major Meyer should be here transcribed, showing, as it does, the splendid
manner in which the officers and men of the regiment acquitted themselves on that historic field:
HEADQUARTERS TWENTY-EIGHTH IOWA INFANTRY, FOURTH
BRIGADE, SECOND DIVISION, NINETEENTH ARMY CORPS,
CAMP RUSSELL., VA., Nov. 30, 1864.
11
GENERAL:—I have the honor to report that, in compliance with orders, the regiment at 5 A.
M. was standing at arms, awaiting the issue of a reconnaissance to be made by the First, Second
and Third Brigades of our division: but, before the reconnaissance was made, the enemy, in
overwhelming numbers, attacked the Eighth Corps, which was on the left of the army. That
corps, failing to be under arms, was soon driven from their works, and the enemy was rapidly
advancing toward the Nineteenth Army Corps, occupying the center of the army, when General
Grover, commanding the Second Division, ordered the regiment, with the Fourth Brigade, by the
left flank, to change front and assist the Eighth Corps. The regiment was on the extreme left of
the brigade and division, and, under the personal direction of the division commander, it was
taken about one-fourth of a mile to the east of the Winchester Pike to hold the crest of a hill. In
the hurry, the remaining regiments of the brigade were left west of the pike, and the Twelfth
Maine was ordered to form on our right, but, after several unsuccessful efforts, it failed to come
to the line and retired in confusion, which left our right exposed. A brigade from the First
Division, Nineteenth Army Corps, formed on the line on our left, but the right of the line of the
enemy extended far beyond the left of that brigade. It was soon outflanked and gave way. The
Twenty-eighth was the last to fall back, but, being engaged on both flanks and front, there was
no hope left of holding our ground.
At first we fell back slowly. It was, however, soon discovered that our retreat was being
closed. I gave the order "double quick," and for one-third of a mile we passed through one of the
most destructive fires ever witnessed, losing six men killed, and between thirty and forty
wounded a few of the regiment, rather than run that great hazard of life, laid down their arms and
have gone to Libby Prison. 19
18 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1865, Vol. 2, pages 1184, 5. Official Report of
Lieutenant Colonel B. W, Wilson, of the part taken by the Twenty-eighth Iowa in the battle of
Fisher's Hill, Va.
19 There were only 9 men. as shown by report of number missing, in Summary of Casualties
at conclusion of Report.
Arriving at Major General Sheridan's headquarters, which were about half a mile northwest
from the crest of the hill where we first engaged the enemy, with other regiments, we rallied and
for a short time held the enemy in check. Here, while rallying and encouraging his men, Captain
Riemensehneider of Company I was instantly killed, and Lieutenant Colonel Wilson was
wounded and taken from the field. The Sixth Corps, which was on the right of the army, now
engaged the victorious foe, but every effort failed, because the enemy continued to flank us on
the left. The whole army was, therefore, ordered to fall back about two miles, so that our left was
no longer exposed to the rebel right. The enemy, finding that they no longer had the advantage
and seeing that our brave boys were not subdued, but ready to renew the conflict, ceased to
advance. Then during a pause, such as is wont to prevail before a terrible storm, our army lines
were formed, front to front with the enemy. The Twenty-eighth as well as the whole army had
been repulsed. The enemy had our camps and all we had except our arms; they had possession of
the battlefield, of our dead and our wounded; but we were unconquered.
Major General Sheridan comes upon the field. The Nineteenth Corps is placed on the right,
the Sixth in the center, and the Eighth on the left. The
Twenty-fourth and Twenty-eighth Iowa
12
form the connecting link between the Sixth and Nineteenth Corps. The awful scene opens. We
notice nothing except our own commands and the enemy in front. No officers ever did better, nor
any soldiers ever fought more bravely, than did those of my command in that hour, which turned
our defeat into a glorious victory. We press forward, the enemy yields, he flees. The victory is
won, the rout transcends all others of the war. It seems so cruel, yet so satisfactory to the loyal
heart, to see our boys drop the running foe, and when he gets beyond the reach of the rifles of the
infantry, to see the cavalry plunge with their carbines, revolvers and sabers right into the
disorganized masses of the traitors, to kill, to terrify, and to scatter them in all directions. The
Twenty-eighth goes into its old camp; our food and clothing are all gone. We had no breakfast,
no dinner and nothing for supper; nor any rations nearer than Winchester, thirteen miles away.
We go forward to guard a captured train two miles long. It is cold and dark. The mind grows
calm sadness and solemnity come over us all. The last struggles of our brave comrades, the
heroic dead, are forever engraver on our memories. In after years we invite all interested in the
Twenty-eighth, as they pass by on the hill, on the right of the pike, just before they cross Cedar
Creek, to pause and read the names over the nine graves of the killed of the regiment on that day.
They, with those mortally wounded, and the crippled and scarred for life, are some of the tokens
of the unflinching fidelity of the regiment to an undivided nationality. I herewith append a list of
the killed and wounded.
I have the honor to be,
Yours truly,
JOHN MEYER, Major
Commanding Regiment.
N. B. BAKER, Adjutant General, State of Iowa. 20
20 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1865, Vol. 2, pages 1185, 6.
The casualties sustained by the regiment in the battle of Cedar Creek were as follows: Killed,
9; wounded, 77; missing 9; total, 95. Among the officers wounded—who were not mentioned in
the report—were Lieutenants Taggart and Barker. Lieutenant Colonel Wilson remained in
command of the regiment until he was wounded and disabled, when the command devolved
upon Major Meyer. In this last battle, as in all the others in which it had taken part, the Twentyeighth
Iowa had made an unbroken record of valor. From the time it entered upon the
Shenandoah Campaign, the regiment had lost two hundred. men and officers in battle.
During the remainder of the campaign, the regiment participated in the operations of its
brigade and division, but the records do not show that it met With any further casualties in
conflict with the enemy. About the middle of November it went into winter quarters of its own
construction, in which it remained until the latter part of December, when it moved to Stephen's
Depot, near Harper's Ferry, where winter quarters were again constructed. About this time the
regiment was assigned to the brigade to which the Twenty-second and Twenty-fourth Iowa were
attached, the other two regiments of which the brigade was composed being the Thirteenth
Connecticut and One Hundred Thirty-first New York. In his synopsis of the movements of the
regiment from Jan. 6 to July 31, 1865, Lieutenant Colonel Wilson describes the changes which
occurred in its location and the various incidents connected with the closing months of its
service. 21 For the purpose of this historical sketch, the account of this period of the regiment's
history is condensed from the report referred to, but includes all the incidents of special
importance.
13
21 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1867, Vol. 2 pages 603, 4. Synopsis of movements of the
Twenty-eighth Iowa, from Jan. 6, 1865, to its muster out, by Lieutenant Colonel B. W. Wilson.
On the morning of January 6, 1865, the regiment went on board cars and was conveyed by
rail to Baltimore and, from thence, by transports to Annapolis where it embarked on the steamer
"Illinois," for Savannah, Ga. The five regiments of the brigade were conveyed by the same
steamer, and the voyage was rendered uncomfortable on account of insufficient quarters for so
large a number of men. On January 19th the regiment disembarked at Savannah and was
quartered for a few days in the railway station, while the men erected substantial quarters; which
they occupied during the remainder of their stay at that place. On January 31st Colonel Wilson
was ordered to detail two companies of his regiment to garrison Fort Barlow, on the river east of
the city, and Companies A and D, under command of Captain H. M. Wilson, were assigned to
that duty. Enoch Baird, of Company I, who had been captured by the enemy at Sabine Cross
Roads and had escaped from the rebel prison at Tyler, Texas, rejoined the regiment at Savannah,
after having endured almost incredible hardships. On February 6, 1860, Chaplain John T.
Simmons, who had faithfully performed the duties of his office since the organization of the
regiment, and who had gained the esteem and affection of all the officers and men, resigned and
departed for his home in Iowa. On March 12th the regiment embarked on steamer, with orders to
proceed to Morehead City, N. C., passed Hilton Head on the 13th and, on the 15th, encountered a
heavy gale. The vessel rolled badly and the men suffered much from sea-sickness. On March
18th the steamer reached its destination and the regiment disembarked and proceeded by rail to
New Berne, N. C., where it rejoined the other regiments of the brigade which had preceded it to
that place.
On April 13th the regiment returned to Morehead City and was put upon fatigue duty,
handling and forwarding supplies to General Sherman's army. While engaged in this duty, the
glad news of the surrender of the rebel General Lee and his army was received, followed later by
the sad news of the assassination of President Lincoln. Finally, the news of the surrender of the
rebel General Johnston and his army gave assurance that the war had ended. The officers and
men now confidently expected to be soon released from the service, and were greatly
disappointed when, on the 4th of May, they were again ordered to embark and proceed to
Savannah, where they arrived on the 6th, and, on the 9th, started on the long and toilsome march
to Augusta, Ga. On May 19th the regiment halted at the village of Hamburgh, S. C., on the bank
of the Savannah River, and from there detachments were sent to a number of places to gather up
property which had belonged to the rebel government. The regiment remained in the
performance of this duty until May 31st, when, with the Twenty-fourth Iowa, it moved to
Augusta Arsenal, during the occupation of which place Colonel Tilson was the senior officer in
command of all the troops, whose duty it was to guard the large amount of government property
which had been collected there. It was the finest camp the regiment had ever had, but it was left
without regret when the welcome order was received to return to Savannah, there to be mustered
out of the service. The order was received on the 23rd of June, and in seven days the regiment
was again in Savannah. It was not until the 31st day of July, however, that the regiment was
mustered out of the service of the United States. On August 2nd, it embarked on steamer and was
conveyed to Baltimore, where it arrived on the 5th, and was conveyed thence by rail to
Davenport, Iowa, reaching that place on August 8, 1865. There the regiment was disbanded and,
bidding each other an affectionate farewell, the men returned to their respective homes, there to
again take up the duties of citizenship, with the same
zeal and earnestness which had
14
distinguished their conduct as soldiers. At the close of his report to Adjutant General Baker,
Colonel Wilson says: 22 "Better feeling never existed between officers and enlisted men than in
the Twenty-eighth Iowa Infantry. Many eyes were moistened when separation took place."
It is no disparagement to any of the Iowa regiments which were engaged in the. suppression
of the Rebellion—every one of them having a splendid record of heroic service—to claim for the
Twenty-eighth Infantry a place in the military history of the State surpassed by none. For
bravery, fortitude and all the distinguishing features of honorable and faithful service, it stands
forth conspicuously, and well may its survivors and their posterity, together with all the loyal
sons and daughters of the Commonwealth, cherish the memory of its noble deeds and great
achievements.
22 Lieutenant Colonel B. W. Wilson was commissioned Colonel of the Twenty-eighth Iowa,
June 15, 1865; Major John Meyer was commissioned Lieutenant Colonel on the same date, and
Captain John W. Carr was commissioned Major July 18, 1865. These promotions were all well
deserved, but neither of these officers (as shown by the record) had been re-mustered at the time
the regiment was mustered out, and they were therefore mustered out of the service with the rank
they had previously held.
