Roster and Record of Iowa Troops In the Rebellion, Vol. 4

By Guy E. Logan

HISTORICAL SKETCH

FIRST REGIMENT IOWA VOLUNTEER CAVALRY

The official records in the office of the Adjutant General of the State of Iowa show the

original rosters of the twelve companies which composed the First Regiment of Cavalry, at the

date of their muster into the service of the United States, together with the additional enlistments

in each company, which followed soon after the completion of the muster of the regiment. The

regiment was organized under the proclamation of President Lincoln, bearing date May 3, 1861.

Burlington was designated as the general rendezvous, and the companies were ordered into

quarters at that place, by Governor Kirkwood, July 18, 1861, with the exception of Company M,

which was ordered into quarters at Davenport, September 2, 1861, and was there mustered into

the service September 12, 1861, and was shortly afterwards ordered to join the other companies

at Burlington. Companies A to I, inclusive, were mustered by Captain Alexander Chambers, of

the United States Army, at Burlington, on the 30th and 31st days of July, 1861, who also

mustered Companies K and L, at Burlington, August 17, 1861, and Company M, at Davenport,

September 12, 1861. The total number of the regiment—rank and file—at muster in was 1,035,

and this number was soon increased, by additional enlistments, to 1,245.1 The regiment had the

honor of being the first volunteer cavalry organization, which had enlisted for a three years' term

of service, to be accepted by the Government. The personnel of the regiment was of the highest

character, both as to enlisted men and officers. Among its commissioned officers were some of

the ablest men in the State. Its first commander, Colonel Ritz Henry Warren, was one of the most

noted journalists of his time. He had become the Associate Editor of the New York Tribune, and

his earnest advocacy of the cause of the Union, and his insistence upon an active and vigorous

prosecution of the war had been effectual in arousing the patriotism of loyal citizens, and causing

them to realize the magnitude of the rebellion, and the tremendous task of subduing it, which

confronted the Government.

1 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1863, Vol. 2, pages 335-392, inclusive.

The officers and men of the regiment preferred to select and own their horses, many of which

they had brought with them from their homes. The law at that time permitted this personal

ownership, the Government allowing ample pay for the use and risk of the animals. The regiment

was thus able to secure a better average quality and value of horses than those usually supplied to

the cavalry regiments of the Regular Army.

The short time the regiment was allowed to remain in its first camp, near Burlington, was

utilized to the utmost extent in learning the rudiments of the cavalry drill and the general

character of the duties of officers and men in camp and field. The time was too short, however,

to properly fit them for the arduous work of an active campaign against the enemy, in which the

greater part of the regiment was very soon to engage. In fact, no amount of previous training

could have fitted them for the peculiar character of the service they were called upon to perform

during the first year of their term. They had to learn, by practical experience in the field, the

character and methods of the enemy with whom they were contending, and, as will be seen, they

passed through a hard and most difficult school of experience, which involved vastly more than

is taught in the regular military curriculum.

2

On the 30th day of September, 1861, six companies of the regiment embarked on steamers

and barges and were conveyed to St. Louis, where they arrived October 2d, and went into

quarters at Benton Barracks, where troops were constantly arriving and departing for the field.

Here they were joined by four companies, two days later. Companies L and M were detained in

camp at Burlington, waiting to receive their uniforms and horse equipments, and did not arrive at

Benton Barracks until October 17th. The Government was not at that time, and for a long time

later, able to procure the arms necessary to fully equip all the cavalry regiments. Revolvers and

sabers were the arms with which the regiment was first equipped. With such arms it was

necessary to engage the enemy at close quarters, in order to secure effectual results. The carbine

was an important part of a cavalry soldier's armament, particularly when fighting dismounted, as

he was more or less frequently required to do when engaged against an infantry or dismounted

cavalry enemy. The cavalry soldiers not provided with carbines were, therefore, placed at a

disadvantage, except when fighting at very close range or engaged in a hand to hand conflict,

when the saber and revolver were the most effective weapons.

The State of Missouri was rent and torn by the terrible factional strife between those of her

citizens who adhered to the cause of the Union and those who had espoused the cause of the

Rebellion. Armed conflicts were of frequent occurrence, and the number of those who had cast

their lot with the rebel cause had increased to such proportions as to tax to the utmost the

available resources of the Government, in its endeavors to protect the loyal citizens, who were

subjected to pillage and murder at the hands of lawless bands, often composed of those who had

been their friends and neighbors previous to the breaking out of fratricidal war. These rebel

bands, being mostly well mounted and familiar with the country, could only be successfully

pursued by cavalry. Into this difficult and dangerous field of service came the First Iowa

Cavalry, to learn its first lessons in the dreadful trade of war. The conditions which then

confronted the regiment were largely the same during the greater part of its long term of service

and have been well described by one of its members, who subsequently achieved fame and

distinction in civil life, and whom the compiler of this sketch takes the liberty of quoting, as

follows:

The early October days found us in Missouri, and thenceforth we were assigned to duties

such as none could have well performed save only the highest in the soldierly and patriotic

qualities of patience, fortitude, unflinching courage, and supreme devotion to a cause. Every

hardship known to war fell to our lot. The somber picture we daily faced was for years unlit by a

single gleam of those glories which, in regular warfare, light up the soldiers pathway to glory or

the grave. Our battlefields were in the byways and waste places, where the human foxes we

followed had their holes. Our marches were often in the night time, for from every hilltop. and

sometimes from the tree tops, looked out a watcher to note our progress and fix the ambush. And

though compelled to this duty, we were left without proper arms, and for two-thirds of our term

of enlistment were not so well armed for the business we were engaged in as were the enemies

we followed. But our duty was performed without repining, and I believe that if the history of

our whole service could be written up with that minuteness with which Kinglake has told the

story of the Crimean campaign, that it would appear that for individual daring, for extent of

country covered and protected, for extent of marches. for number of conflicts, and for soldierly

endurance and self denial, no regiment in the service excelled that to which we belonged, or

deserved better of its country.

The compiler of this historical sketch finds it impossible to go into particularity of details

without exceeding the limitation of space allowed him in this work, and he will, therefore,

confine himself to a brief description of the principal events in the history of the regiment.

3

On the 18th of October, 1861, the First Battalion of the regiment, consisting of Companies A,

B, F and G. under command of Captain Leffingwell, left Benton Barracks under orders to report

to General Pope. The battalion joined the troops under General Pope's command and was

assigned to the duty of advance guard and scouts, on the march to Springfield. On the 9th of

November the Union forces evacuated Springfield, and that portion of the State was, for a time,

left in the possession of the rebel army under General Price. Captain Leffingwell was ordered to

proceed to Otterville with his detachment. In the meantime, the Second Battalion had been

ordered to take the field, and shared, with the First, the hardships of the winter campaign; while

the Third Battalion, under Colonel Warren, remained on duty at Benton Barracks until March 6,

1862, at which time he was ordered to Sedalia, Mo., where he arrived, with the Third Battalion,

on March 9th. From that date the entire regiment was engaged in active operations, by

companies and detachments, operating from different points and covering a wide extent of

territory.

The first engagement in which any portion of the regiment participated was fought on the

19th day of December, 1861, on Black River, near the town of Milford, Mo., by a detachment of

the First Iowa Cavalry, under command of Major Torrence, a detachment of the Fourth United

States Cavalry, and a section of artillery belonging to a Missouri battery. This force attacked a

camp of recruits, who were on their way to join the rebel army under General Price. In his

official report to General Halleck, General Pope gives a detailed account of this engagement, 3

from which the following extracts are taken:

3 War of the Rebellion Official Records Series 1, Vol. 8, pages 39-40, inclusive.

. . . Colonel Davis marched promptly and vigorously with the forces under his command, and at

a late hour in the afternoon came upon the enemy, encamped in the wooded bottom land on the

west side of Backwater opposite the mouth of Clear Creek. His pickets were immediately driven

in across the stream, which was deep, miry, and impassable, except by a long narrow bridge

which the enemy occupied in force, . . . Colonel Davis brought forward his force, and directed

that the bridge be carried by assault. The two companies of the Fourth Regular Cavalry being in

advance under the command respectively of Lieutenant Gordon and Lieutenant Amory, were

designated for that service, and were supported by the five companies of the First Iowa

Lieutenant Gordon of the Fourth Cavalry led the charge in person with the utmost gallantry and

vigor, carried the bridge in fine style, and immediately formed his company on the opposite side.

He was promptly followed by the other companies. The force of the enemy posted on the bridge

retreated precipitately over a narrow open space in the woods, where his whole force was

posted.... Our forces still continuing to press forward, and the enemy finding his retreat south and

west cut off, and that he was in presence of a large force, and at best could only prolong the

contest a short time, surrendered at discretion. His force, reported by the Colonel commanding,

consisted of parts or two regiments of Infantry and three companies of Cavalry, numbering in all

1300 men.... About 500 horses and mules, 73 wagons heavily loaded with powder, lead, tents,

subsistence stores, and supplies of various kinds, fell into our hands, as also 1,000 stand of arms.

. . . The numbers as stated were reported to me by Colonel Robinson, Colonel J. C. Davis, and by

Major Torrence, First Iowa Cavalry.... Within five days the infantry forces comprising this

expedition have marched 100 miles, the cavalry more than double that distance; have swept the

whole country of the enemy west of Sedalia and as far as Rose Hill to a line within 15 miles of

the Osage; have captured nearly 1,500 prisoners, 1,200 stand of arms, nearly 100 wagons, and a

large quantity of supplies. The march alone would do credit to old soldiers, and it gives me

4

pleasure to state that it has been performed with cheerfulness and alacrity.... A list of our killed

and wounded will be transmitted as soon as possible....

It will thus be seen that very important results were obtained from the expedition and

engagement, in which the First Iowa Cavalry bore a very conspicuous part.

The next engagement—known as the "Battle of Silver Creek"—was participated in by four

companies of the First Iowa Cavalry, associated with detachments from the First Missouri and

"Merrill's Horse" and the Fourth Independent Company Ohio Volunteer Cavalry, (commanded

by Captain John S. Foster,) all under command of Major Torrence, of the First Iowa. The

following brief extracts from the official report of Major Torrence will serve to show the

efficient service rendered by the detachment of the First Iowa:

FAYETTE, HOWARD COUNTY, Mo., Jan. 11, 1862.

.... By order of General Pope we proceeded from Otterville to this county, for the purpose

of dispersing sundry rebel camps which were being formed in the vicinity, and arrived here

Sunday, Jan. 5, 1862. On the morning of the 8th five companies of the Fifth Iowa Infantry

arrived from Boonville and, leaving them to guard our camp here, the command was on the

march a18 o'clock. We arrived near the location of their camp, which was situated on or near the

headwaters of Silver Creek, . . . about 4 P. M., and made the attack at half past four P. M. The

enemy were protected by dense woods and underbrush and there was no approach to them save

through a narrow road, only wide enough for two men to ride abreast. Our troops were ordered to

dismount, every fifth man holding horses, and we prepared to fight on foot. The engagement

commenced at once.... The enemy faltered, gave back, retreated in disorder, and we soon had

possession of their camp.

The report further states that the pursuit was soon abandoned and the troops returned to the

rebel camp, which was destroyed, there being no transportation for the captured property. It was

found impossible to overtake the rebels, they being well mounted and familiar with the roads and

by-ways of the wooded country in which they made their camps. In this engagement the

command lost 27 men, killed and wounded. The loss of the enemy could not be definitely

learned, but was supposed to be about 60 in killed and wounded. James Convey, of the First

Iowa, was mortally wounded and died the next day. The others belonging to the regiment, who

were wounded, were James Scott, Thomas Fletcher, Stephen M. Sexton, Cornelius Thompson

and Andrew Johnson.

During the remainder of the winter the companies of the First and Second Battalions of the

regiment were almost constantly on the move. They dispersed many rebel bands, and made it a

difficult matter for recruits to get through to the rebel army, except those who went in small

squads or singly, and kept off the main roads. Among the important captures was that of

Brigadier General Tom Price, son of Major General Price, the commander of the rebel army.

Many horses, mules, wagons and other property useful and necessary to the enemy were

captured or destroyed. But the men who supported the rebel cause were of such desperate and

stubborn nature that no disaster seemed sufficient to discourage or conquer their resolute spirits,

and they continued their efforts to regain control of the State, even believing that they might

eventually reverse conditions and transfer the theater of war to the North. It became evident that

the struggle was to be prolonged, and that all the resources at the command of the Government

would be required to fully restore its authority in those border States. In fact, that result was not

accomplished in every portion of the State of Missouri until the close of the war.

5

With the opening of spring, and under more favorable weather conditions, the operations of

both Union and rebel troops became more active and aggressive. On the 6th of March, 1862,

Colonel Warren left Benton Barracks with the Third Battalion and arrived at Sedalia, Mo.,

March 9th. The whole regiment was now in the field. The headquarters of the regiment were, for

a time, at Clinton and, later, at Sedalia, the different detachments reporting their operations to

Colonel Warren, who made his reports to Brigadier General James Totten, commanding the

District of Central Missouri. There are many of these reports showing the constant activity of the

different detachments, their skirmishes with the enemy, prisoners, horses and other property

captured, casualties sustained, etc., which demonstrate the importance of the service rendered by

the regiment during this period of the war. The following account of one of these encounters will

serve to show the general experience of the different detachments and may be considered as

typical of all, differing from the others only in matters of detail, number engaged, etc.

6 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1963, Vol. 2, pages 845, 846, 847.

On the 14th of April, 1862, a detachment of the regiment, under command of Lieutenant

Colonel C. E. Moss, had a skirmish with a band of rebels on Sac River. On the evening of the

same day, Lieutenant Colonel Moss, who had proceeded with Lieutenant Barnes and a part of

Company K to the town of Montevallo, leaving Captain Bryan to bring forward the rest of the

command found himself with his small force suddenly surrounded by a superior force of the

enemy. In the fight which ensued the leader of the rebel band was killed and quite a number of

his men were killed and wounded. The First Iowa Cavalry had two men killed and seven

wounded in this engagement The following brief extract, from the official report of Lieutenant

Colonel Moss, shows the conduct of his men in this engagement:

.... Never did men under similar circumstances display greater gallantry than those with me

that night. Being exposed to a most murderous fire from double their number of men well armed,

not a man pinched or showed any disposition to surrender, or give up the contest. Lieutenant

Barnes and Andrew J. Pugh (my guide) deserve my warmest thanks for their cool gallantry and

determined courage. The rebel band was found to be composed mostly of persons living or

staying in the immediate vicinity of the place.

During the month of May, 1862, 6 headquarters of the regiment were at Butler, Mo. On May

2d, Colonel Warren, with 200 men and a section of the First Missouri Light Artillery, started on

a scout to the Marias Des Cygnes River, and, on the 11th, returned with 30 prisoners and a

quantity of arms, ammunition and a number of horses and mules captured from the enemy. On

the 16th, the forage train was fired upon, four miles from camp, by a band of bushwhackers and

three men were killed and one wounded. On the 26th and 27th the forage train was again

attacked and four men were killed and one wounded. These attacks were made with a rush, the

enemy quickly disappearing, and in neither case were the cavalry, sent in pursuit, able to

overtake them. During the month of June, 1862, the twelve companies of the regiment were

engaged in scouting over a wide range of territory covering six counties, and doing guard duty at

the various posts in the military sub-district to which they were assigned.

6

The headquarters of the regiment remained at Butler during the month of July. On the 8th, a

detachment of 100 men, under command of Lieutenant Reynolds, attacked a band of guerrillas,

led by the notorious Quantrill, on the Lotspeach farm in Cass County; but, finding the enemy

strongly posted and their number superior to his own, he gave up the effort to dislodge them,

after having lost one man killed and two men wounded. He retreated to Clinton. On the 9th, all

the men and officers of Companies A, G and H, stationed at Clinton, left camp under command

of Major James O. Gower, and were joined near the Lotspeach farm, on the 10th, by detachments

from the companies of the regiment stationed at Butler, under command of Captain W. H.

Ankeny, of Company M, and also by a small body of troops from Warrensburg belonging to

other regiments; the entire force being under command of Major Gower. In the meantime the

rebel force, under Quantrill, had retreated to a strong position among the wooded hills of Big

Creek timber, four miles west of Pleasant Hill, in Cass County. There Major Gower attacked

them and, after a short but fierce engagement, succeeded in routing them, killing and wounding a

large number and capturing some property. In this engagement the troops under Major Gower

exhibited great bravery and received his hearty commendation. The First Iowa Cavalry lost 3

killed and 10 wounded in the engagement, among the latter Lieutenants Reynolds and Foster and

Adjutant D. A. Kerr. During the remainder of the month the companies of the regiment were

engaged in scouting in the vicinity of the various posts occupied by them.

7 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1868, Vol. 2, page 849.

During the month of August, 1862, the headquarters of the regiment remained at Butler. On

the 2d, detachments from Companies E, L and M, under command of Captain Caldwell,

Company I, encountered in the timber on Clear Creek, St. Clair County, a band of guerrillas, said

to number 300 or 400 men, well armed and mounted, under command of one Clowers, a

notorious outlaw. After a brief but desperate struggle, in which the enemy lost 11 killed, our

troops, being greatly outnumbered, retired and awaited reinforcements, having sent for them to

Butler, Clinton and Osceola. The next day Colonel Warren arrived with the needed

reinforcements, but, in the meantime, the enemy had fled and could not be overtaken. In the

engagement on the 2d, Captain H. H. Heath, of Company L, led the charge with his detachment

of 75 men. In his reports Captain Heath says:

.... In this engagement our loss was four killed and fourteen wounded, myself among the

latter number. The names of the gallant men who fell that morning are Albert C. Alford, Caleb

C. Botwood and Michael J. Driscoll, of Company L, and Elisha A. Roland of Company M. We

also lost several horses killed, among which was my own. In this engagement were many who

had never been under fire before, but their courage was manifest amidst a most terrific fire of

musketry within a few paces of them and from an enemy, for the most part, concealed within a

thickly studded ambush of undergrowth, and who could only be discovered as they rose and

poured forth their murderous fire upon us. Lieutenants Berryman and Edsell, and Sergeant

Dunham, of Company M, particularly distinguished themselves as brave and worthy officers

Subsequent pursuit by Colonel Warren, with a considerable force, discovered the fact that the

rebels had placed a wide tract of country between themselves and the First Iowa Cavalry. 8

About one week later the headquarters of the regiment were removed to Sedalia, and from

there Colonel Warren, with a large detachment of his regiment, proceeded to join General Blunt's

forces at Lone Jack, Mo., and took part in the pursuit of several thousand rebels, marching, while

absent over 300 miles. On the 26th, the regiment returned to Camp Warren, near Clinton, and

7

went into camp there for a brief rest. Previous to starting on this expedition—on August 7,

1862—the posts at Butler and Osceola had been evacuated and all the companies of the regiment

were, for the first time in many months, concentrated in one camp. The regiment remained in

camp until September 20th, on which date it started on the march to Springfield, arriving there

on the 28th, at which time it was assigned to the Second Brigade, First Division, Army of the

Southwest, Colonel Dye, of the Twentieth Iowa Infantry, commanding, and marched to Camp

McClellan, twelve miles west of Springfield, where it remained until the close of the month.

On the 1st of October, 1862, the regiment, with its brigade and division started on the March

1n pursuit of the enemy,—a march made memorable to all the troops of the brigade and division

on account of its length, its circuitous course, the elusive and baffling movements of the enemy

and the hardships endured. On the 2d the command passed through Mt. Vernon and camped on

Center Creek. On the 3d continued march to Newtonia. On the 4th came up with the rear of the

enemy and had a slight skirmish. On the 9th continued march to Cassville. On the 16th the

regiment was transferred to Second Brigade, Third Division, Army of the Frontier. On the 17th

continued march and on the 18th marched all day and went into camp near Bentonville,

Arkansas. On the 20th marched all night and the next day and bivouacked on White River.

Marched night of 21st and 22d to Glade Creek, near Huntsville and, halting there for supper,

marched all night to camp on White River. On the 23d marched back to Cross Hollow, Arkansas,

going into camp at Valley Springs. On the 27th ten companies of the regiment made a night

march to a point eight miles southeast of Fayetteville, Arkansas, and had a skirmish with the

enemy on the morning of the 28th, in which Samuel C. Dickerson Quartermaster of the regiment,

was killed. On the 29th the ten companies returned to camp at Valley Springs.

On the 1st day of November, 1862, the regiment was in camp at Valley Springs, Ark. On the

4th it marched to Elkhorn Tavern, on the old Pea Ridge battlefield, arriving there late at night.

During the remainder of the month the regiment marched from point to point in pursuit of the

enemy, and officers and men were in the saddle almost constantly during the day and, many

times, far into the night. The record shows a distance of 154 miles marched prior to the 25th of

the month, on which date all the available officers and men of the regiment started from Camp

Curtis on a scout to Yellville, Ark., from which they returned on the 30th having marched while

on the scout 250 miles and making over 400 miles for the month.

* It will be noted that the names of the wounded men are not given in this report, and that often

the names of neither killed nor wounded are given in other reports of engagements in which the

regiment took part. The reader is therefore referred to the subjoined Roster, in which the names

of all the killed and wounded appear.

On the 3d day of Decembers 1862, the regiment, with its brigade and division, left Camp

Curtis, marching southward, and, at midnight on the 6th reached the headquarters of General

James G. Blunt, at Cane Hill, Ark., having marched 98 miles, and having been in the saddle 18

consecutive hours. The Second Battalion of the regiment was detailed as rear guard for the

wagon train of the division, and consequently did not arrive in time to participate in the battle

which ensued. Owing to the fact that General Herron's division had been fighting for several

hours before General Blunt's division arrived upon the battlefield and attacked the enemy in the

rear, the heavy part of the fighting was over at that time, and darkness soon put an end to the

conflict. Moreover, the conditions were unfavorable for bringing the cavalry into close contact

with the enemy, and therefore the part taken by the two battalions of the First Iowa was mainly

that of skirmishers and flankers, which subjected them to smaller loss than they had sustained in

many previous engagements. Nevertheless, the First and Third Battalions of the regiment

8

performed their whole duty at the battle of Prairie Grove. They obeyed the orders they received

implicitly and accepted the minor but important positions assigned them after their arrival upon

the field, and received the full share of credit to which they were justly entitled. The Second

Battalion was also doing its full share of duty where it had been placed, guarding the supply

train, the protection of which was so important to all the troops composing the division. Every

true soldier knows that to be assigned to such duty, when a great battle is in progress to hear the

roar of battle and know that, when the official reports are written, his name and that of his

company or regiment will not be included among those who were active participants, always

occasions a feeling of regret. The battle of Prairie Grove was the one of greatest magnitude in

which the First Regiment of Iowa Cavalry participated during its long and arduous term of

service. That it did not have a conspicuous part in that hard-fought battle was not the fault of its

officers and men or of its Brigade Commander. The regiment did all that it was ordered to do,

and earned the full measure of credit that was accorded to it in the official reports. While it was

not theirs to share in the glory of having been in the midst of the battle, it was theirs to have

stood ready and willing to lead the charge into the thickest of the fight, had they been called

upon to do so.

On December 27th the regiment started with the expedition, under command of Generals

Blunt and Herron, to Van Buren, Ark., and took part in the capture of that place on the 28th,

together with five Arkansas River steamboats loaded with large quantities of army supplies, and

many prisoners. Returning from that expedition on the last day of the month and year 1862, the

regiment went into camp at Prairie Grove, but only remained there during the first day of the new

year.

On the 2d day of January, 1863, the Third Division of the Army of the Frontier, of which the

regiment was now a part, left its encampment at Prairie Grove and marched by way of

Fayetteville, Huntsville and Carrollton to Forsyth, on White River, Mo. Major Daniel Anderson,

with about 400 of the regiment, left the division at Fayetteville on January 4th and proceeded to

scour the country in advance and along the flanks of the line of march, captured a number of

prisoners, gained much valuable information, and arrived at Huntsville two days in advance of

the division. On January 10th, Major J. W. Caldwell with 400 men, marched from Huntsville to a

point on Buffalo River, a distance of 60 miles, and, early on the morning of the 11th, surprised

and captured 75 guards in charge of extensive saltpeter works, which had been constructed by

the rebels for the manufacture of powder. These works were situated near the summit of a

mountain. The troopers of the First Iowa Cavalry clambered up the mountain side, taking the

guards by surprise, and causing them to beat a hasty retreat. The machinery and, buildings,

together with several tons of saltpeter, were destroyed by fire. Captain McQueen, with 200 men,

was sent to destroy works of a similar kind about ten miles distant, which was accomplished in

like manners, the guards offering but feeble resistance. While returning, Captain McQueen

succeeded in capturing a drove of horses and mules destined for the rebel army, together with the

guards in charge; in this affair Lieutenant Dustin, Sergeant Morrill and Corporals Newell and

Wisener displayed great efficiency and gallantry. On the same day Captain Jenks, who was on

picket duty with the detachment, was attacked by a band of rebels, and, in the fight which

ensued, the rebel leader was killed by Captain Jenks. The detachment rejoined the main

command at Carrollton on the 14th.

On the 15th, all the available cavalry force of the division, under command of Colonel

Cower, made a rapid march to Yellville, to intercept the rebel General Marmaduke on his retreat,

after his unsuccessful attack on Springfield. A few prisoners captured, with a considerable

amount of property, was the result of the expedition, the rebel General succeeding in making

good his retreat into the mountains of Arkansas. Colonel Gower then proceeded to Forsyth with

9

his command. While the regiment was in camp there, Colonel Gower went to St. Louis to receive

a supply of carbines which had been received there for the use of the First Iowa Cavalry. During

his absence the main part of the command marched to Lake Springs, near Rolla, Mo., where they

arrived March 31st, going into camp and establishing regimental headquarters at that place. To

this camp Colonel Cower returned, bringing with him 250 Colt's revolvers, 600 Sharp's breechloading

carbines, and 400 cavalry sabers, thus giving the regiment a complete set of arms, for the

first time in its history. The regiment was also supplied at this time with a remount of fresh

horses, and was thus splendidly equipped for the active work of the next campaign, which was

about to begin.

On the 20th of April, 1863, about 600 men and officers of the regiment, under command of

Major Caldwell, joined the expedition under General Vandever, against the rebel forces under

Marmaduke, then advancing against Cape Girardeau, Mo. General Vandever did not succeed in

intercepting Marmaduke's force, which attacked the troops under General McNiel at Cape

Girardeau and having been repulsed, fell back towards Jackson. General Vandever, moving

rapidly, came in close proximity to a portion of the rebel forces on their retreat, and the First

Iowa Cavalry, which led the advance, came up with them. In the skirmish which ensued the

regiment had five men wounded. The pursuit was continued to Chalk Bluff, where the enemy

succeeded in crossing the St. Francis River and rejoining the main body of Marmaduke's

command. The regiment returned to Lake Springs May 15th, having been gone 26 days,

marching over 500 miles and suffering greatly on account of insufficient rations.

The regiment now proceeded to Pilot Knob, with orders to report to General J. W. Davidson's

and was assigned to the Second Brigade of the cavalry division commanded by that officer, then

encamped at Arcadia. Here everything that could possibly be dispensed with, in the way of camp

equipage, was stored, and the troops, unencumbered with anything that would impede rapid

movement, were put in readiness for the prosecution of an active and vigorous campaign. On

July 1st the division marched from Arcadia to Fredericktown, thence to Bloomfield, where it

arrived on the 12th and remained eight days. The town was fortified, a garrison left to defend it,

and a hospital established. in which all the sick and disabled men of the division were left in

charge of Assistant Surgeon C. H. Lothrop, of the First Iowa Cavalry. On the 20th the division

resumed its march over difficult roads, crossed the St. Francis River at Chalk Bluff and

continued its march southward Captain J. D. Jenks and Lieutenant Hursh, with 50 men of the

First Iowa Cavalry, were sent in advance with dispatches to General Steele, at Helena, Ark.,

which difficult and dangerous duty was gallantly performed. The command reached Clarendon,

on White River, on the 9th of August, and there joined the army under command of General

Steele. The movement of the combined Union forces against Little Rock now began.

On August 13th, Captains McQueen and Jones, with 170 picked men of the First Iowa

Cavalry, were embarked on a gunboat and barges, with orders to proceed down White River,

effect a landing on the west side and made a reconnaissance, in order to find where the main

body of the enemy was encamped. A landing was effected at Aberdeen, in presence of a rebel

picket post. Leaving the gunboat at anchor in White River, for a cover in case of retreat, the

detachment dashed through the country to the westward, commenced to drive the rebel pickets

within half a mile of the place of landing, and moved up the river, behind the line of rebel pickets

stationed along the river, to Devall's Bluff a distance of 55 miles, then moved west through

Brownsville, eluding the superior forces of the enemy by shifting positions during the night, until

ascertaining beyond a doubt that the rebel encampment was on Bayou Metoe. The detachment

then countermarched, keeping under cover of the timber as much as possible, until a superior

force was discovered marching on the prairie which had to be crossed. The detachment charged

from the timber, taking the enemy unprepared; a running fight for five miles ensued, the rebels

10

making a rapid retreat. The detachment then re-embarked and arrived at Clarendon the evening

of the 15th. The whole army crossed White River on the 18th, and the cavalry division arrived at

Brownsville on the 26th, where a brisk engagement ensued, in which the First Iowa Cavalry had

the advance, driving the enemy into their encampment beyond Bayou Metoe. In the engagement

which followed on the 27th, the First Iowa, under command of Colonel Anderson, charged the

rebels driving them across Bayou Metoe, and following them to the end of the bridge in face of a

heavy fire of artillery and musketry from the enemy posted on the other side, with the hope of

saving the bridge,—the only means of crossing the deep and sluggish bayou,—but were unable

to do so, as the rebels had prepared combustible material, which was lighted quickly and the

bridge destroyed. In this engagement the regiment had 37 men killed and wounded, the heaviest

loss they had thus far sustained in any single encounter with the enemy. The officers and men

behaved with the greatest gallantry. Colonel Anderson had his horse shot under him while

leading his men in the charge .

The cavalry division now moved southward; a pontoon bridge was laid across the Arkansas

River during the night of September 9th, and, on the morning of September 10th, the cavalry led

the way across the bridge and brought on the engagement which resulted in the capture of Little

Rock about sunset of that day. After crossing the river, the First Iowa was actively engaged

throughout the day, and recaptured two howitzers which had been taken by the enemy during the

early part of the engagement. The regiment now went into camp near Little Rock, where it

remained during the following winter in comparative quiet. Scouting parties and guards to forage

trains had occasional skirmishes with the enemy, in which the casualties were not heavy, but

there was much sickness and many died from malarious diseases, while many others were

months in a state of doubtful convalescence. Among the latter was Captain A. G. McQueen,

who, on account of a severe attack of typhoid fever, was for months prevented from participating

in the operations of the regiment, and is who twice tendered his resignation in order to give his

position to some one who was in physical condition to discharge the duties of the office; but, as a

just recognition of his value as an officer, his resignation was not accepted, and an order was

issued detailing him as Senior Inspector General of Cavalry for the Military Division west of the

Mississippi, and assigning him to duty at New Orleans, La., until his health should have been

sufficiently recovered to enable him to rejoin his regiment and resume active duty in the field.

The regiment was thus able to retain the services of one of its most capable and efficient

Officers, who subsequently won well deserved promotion and became its Commander.

On the 8th of December, Captain Jenks, with a detachment of 250 men of the regiments

made an attack on a rebel encampment and captured 39 men and a considerable amount of camp

equipage. Colonel Goner having resigned, Lieutenant Colonel Anderson was promoted to

Colonel, Major Caldwell to Lieutenant Colonel, and Captain McQueen to Major.

During the early part of 1864 a sufficient number re-enlisted to entitle the regiment to assume

the title of a veteran organization. According to the terms of their re-enlistment, the men were

entitled to a thirty days' furlough in the State of Iowa. but the conditions then existing

imperatively demanded their presence in the field, and it was more than a month later when those

who survived were permitted to enjoy the brief visit to their homes. The regiment started on the

march to Camden on the 22d of March, 1864. Owing to the great scarcity of forage, many horses

had died during the winter, and about 400 men were without mounts and compelled to march on

foot. The regiment was much of the time in advance of the army, and, on March 30th, had a brisk

engagement with the enemy, and again on April 2d, when it engaged in a running fight for five

miles, driving the enemy before it, and again, on April 4th, when the enemy made a stubborn

resistance, inflicting a loss upon the regiment of 39 men, killed and wounded. The regiment was

the first to enter the rebel works at Prairie d'Ane. On April 15th the mounted men were again

11

ordered to the front and skirmished with the enemy for six hours, when, by order of General

Rice, the dismounted men were brought to the front and deployed as skirmishers, and the enemy

was driven back through the city of Camden. It will thus be seen that, upon this important

expedition, the First Iowa Cavalry had done its full share of the fighting and had fully sustained

its reputation for bravery and efficiency. The object of the expedition having been accomplished,

the veterans of the regiment, 520 in number, were ordered to proceed to the State of Iowa on

furlough. The following extract from the order of the division commander will serve to show the

high estimation in which the regiment and its gallant Lieutenant Colonel was held:

"V. The Brigadier General commanding the division has been highly gratified with the

cheerfulness and alacrity shown by the regiment under the particular hardships of this campaign,

as well as its handsomely sustaining the reputation for bravery which belongs to Iowa troops.

VI. To Lieutenant Colonel Caldwell, the division commander is under obligations for the

skill and bravery he has shown as commander of the Third Brigade, and especially for his

untiring energy and hearty, cordial, and effectual cooperation in the plans of the campaign.

By order Brigadier General E. A. Carr,

C. H. DYER, A. A G."

The veterans, having sold their horses to the Government, started from Camden on foot, on

the 24th of April, on their way to Little Rock, from which point they were to be furnished with

transportation to Davenport Iowa. On the march to that place, however, they twice encountered

the enemy,—first at Mono River, near Mark's Mills, on April 24th, and last in the battle at

Jenkins' Ferry, on Saline River, on April 30th, arriving at Little Rock on the 2d day of May,

1864. There the non-veterans (those who had not re-enlisted) remained, while the veterans (those

who had re-enlisted) were given a thirty days' furlough and departed for their homes in Iowa.

Here let it be said that, while the distinctive title of "Veterans" was bestowed upon the men who

were willing to continue in the service of their country until the close of the war, and was an

honorable distinction well deserved by them, their comrades who had faithfully complied with

the terms of their enlistment, and who preferred to return to their homes when their three years

term of service should expire, were not subjecting themselves to criticism by declining to reenlist.

They, too, were veterans, in fact if not in name, and, having been true to the obligations

they had voluntarily assumed, could return to their homes and receive the full meed of thanks

and honor which was freely accorded them by their State and Nation.

The veterans arrived at Davenport on May 17th, where they received a royal welcome. They

were given furloughs for thirty days, and, at the expiration of that time, re-assembled at

Davenport, and were soon on their way south to rejoin their comrades at Little Rock; but, upon

their arrival at Cairo, III., were ordered to return to St. Louis, where they were supplied with

horses and camp equipage and were sent into North Missouri, where they were again divided

into detachments and stationed at different points along the railroad, for the purpose of guarding

the road against incursions of rebel bands, who were constantly making raids to capture trains

and both army supplies and other freight passing over the road. While upon this duty the veterans

lost seven men killed and several wounded. It was a repetition of their past experience in

Missouri, and they found the conditions that existed during the summer of 1861 but little

changed. In their ignorance and desperation the rebels refused to recognize the hopelessness of

their cause and were most bitter and unrelenting in their hatred and cruelty toward Union citizens

and their families, and it was their custom to give no quarter to the Union soldiers who fell into

their hands.

On the 1st of October, 1864, the veterans were relieved by other troops, and, marching to

Jefferson City, were there assigned to General Sanborn's Brigade and at once moved against their

12

old enemy, General Sterling Price, who, with his rebel army, had again. invaded Missouri. After

the battle of Boonville, in which the veterans of the First Iowa Cavalry participated, they were

retained on duty at Major General Rosecrans' headquarters, as escort, scouts and couriers, until

the end of the campaign. They then returned with General Rosecrans to St. Louis, remaining

there for a few weeks and receiving a complete outfit of everything necessary for another

extended campaign. They were then conveyed to Cairo, by rail, and thence, by steamer, to Little

Rock, arriving there on the 29th of December, 1864, and rejoining the non-veteran portion of the

regiment, from which they had been so long separated. The non-veterans had, in the meantime,

been under the command of Major J. D. Jenks, and had performed active and efficient service in

the country surrounding Little Rock., had been engaged in numerous skirmishes. and had

received the commendation of the General commanding for their faithful performance of duty.

Their term of service having expired, the non-veterans were mustered out of the service at Little

Rock and returned to Iowa, while the recruits were assigned to the companies of the veteran

organization.

The beginning of the year 1865 found the veteran regiment united, well mounted and

equipped. ready and willing to perform its full share in crushing out the great Rebellion, which

was everywhere on the wane, and which it was now evident could. not continue throughout the

year. The very desperation of their cause, however, seemed to inspire the enemy with a fixed

purpose to fight to the east and fight they did until their resources were entirely exhausted.

Lieutenant Colonel McQueen was now in command of the regiment. On January 1.4, 1865, a

detachment of the First Iowa, together with detachments from other regiments of the division, all

under the command of Major James D Jenks, of the First Iowa, was ordered to proceed to

Dardanelle, about 100 miles up the Arkansas River. The troops were conveyed by boats. After

effecting a landing, Major Jenks at once led his command against a force of the enemy 1,600

strong, and, after a brisk engagement, defeated them. For his successful management of the

expedition Major Jenks was given the brevet rank of Lieutenant Colonel. On January 22d the

regiment, together with other troops, moved against a rebel force encamped near Camden, and,

after a brief engagement, defeated them, capturing a number of their men and horses. Lieutenant

C. W. W. Dow was particularly commended for his gallantry and efficiency in leading the

advance guard on this expedition. The names of the killed and wounded in these and subsequent

engagements will all be found noted in the subjoined Roster.

On February 12, 1865, the regiment received orders to proceed to Memphis, Tenn., and,

conveyed by transports, reached that city on the 20th, remaining there until March 4th, when it

became part of a cavalry force which went in pursuit of the rebel General Forrest. During this

expedition Lieutenant Colonel McQueen, with a detachment of the First Iowa, met and defeated

a portion of Forrest's command on the Tallahatchie River. The regiment returned to Memphis on

February 22d. It then moved to Collierville, Tenn., and, from its' camp at that place, sent out

detachments in pursuit of the roving bands of the enemy who still infested the country killing

many and finally dispersing them.

The rebellion was now practically suppressed, and it seemed that the Government might soon

be able to dispense with the service of the regiment, and the men were looking forward with fond

anticipation for the order for their discharge. This hope was rudely dispelled, however, when

orders were received for the First Iowa, Fifth and Twelfth Illinois, Second Wisconsin and

Seventh Indiana Cavalry Regiments to embark on transports, proceed to Alexandria, La., and

there report to Major General G. A. Custer for further orders. The command arrived at

Alexandria June 22d, 1865, and on the following day General Custer issued an order, the strict

enforcement of which brought great hardship and humiliation upon the splendid regiments

13

composing his command. The full details of the terrible experience through which the regiment

passed while under command of this Martinet of the Regular Army are given in the report of

Lieutenant Colonel A. G. McQueen to the Adjutant General of Iowa including copies of official

orders, affidavits and correspondence upon the subject, in which the honor of the regiment is

most completely vindicated. 9

9 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1867, Vol. 2, pages 514-538, inclusive.

General Custer was a brave and dashing cavalry officer who had won distinction in the

eastern army for his efficient services in many battles, but he had been trained in a severe school

of discipline and was utterly unfit for the command of volunteers, under the conditions that

existed at the close of hostilities. He lacked the essential qualifications—kindness of heart, tact

and good judgment of human nature—which would have enabled him to enforce a proper degree

of discipline, and, at the same time, have secured the respect and attachment instead of the

cordial hatred of the men under his command. His reckless bravery later cost him his life, and

that of every man under his Command, when he made an attack with an inferior force upon an

overwhelming force of Indians, under the command of the famous chief, "Sitting Bull," on the

northwestern frontier. It is altogether to the credit of the men and officers of the First Iowa

Cavalry that they were able to submit to the cruel indignities to which they were subjected while

under the command of General Custer, instead of being driven to open insubordination and

revolt. Every true soldier understands the necessity for discipline in an army, and yields willing

obedience, even when the discipline is more severe than necessary, and enforced in the most

unpleasant manner by a tyrannical officer. It was a new and hard experience for these brave men,

and the official records show that they submitted to it rather than have the history of their service

tarnished by a single act of insubordination.

From the 22d day of June to the 8th of August the regiment remained at Alexandria, when it

started on the march to Texas. It was halted at various points in that State until November 4th, on

which date it arrived at Austin, the Capital of the State, where the headquarters of the regiment

were maintained during the remainder of its service. Detachments were stationed for a few

weeks at a time at different county seats, from the borders of the Indian Nation to the southern

portion of the State, for the purpose of preserving order and assisting the civil authorities in the

discharge of their functions, and the enforcement of the laws in the trial of offenders by the

courts, which could only be done by the presence of soldiers. The turbulent character of a large

part of the population, and the demoralization resulting from a long continued war, rendered the

presence of soldiers necessary for the protection of the lives and property of the better class of

citizens who were endeavoring to secure the restoration of the functions of civil government. The

First Iowa Cavalry contributed its best efforts to accomplish this desirable result.

On the 15th day of February, 1866, the regiment was mustered out of the service of the

United States at Austin, Texas, and, four days later, started for Davenport, Iowa, where it arrived

on the 13th of March. On the 16th day of March, the officers and men received final payment,

the regiment was disbanded and all returned to their respective homes, to resume the peaceful

avocations they had abandoned when they responded to the call of their country. Lieutenant

Colonel McQueen, who was in command of the regiment at the time it was mustered out, says, in

closing its official history:

"Lieutenant Henry L. Morrill, Regimental Adjutant, is particularly deserving of honorable

mention for his long and efficient services as an officer and soldier, and especially for the

valuable aid rendered in superintending the making out of the final muster out papers of the

regiment."

14

The final paragraph in the history has deeply impressed the compiler of this sketch. It reads

as follows:

"On account of not having the regimental records at hand many deeds of individual heroism,

which might with propriety be mentioned, are omitted in this history. The number and names of

those belonging to the regiment, who died and were killed in battle, have already been reported

to your office, and I will trust to the pen of the future historian to speak, so their immolation will

not be forgotten."

The compiler deeply regrets his inability to fulfill the trust thus imposed. While he had much

of the experience which pertained to the common lot of the soldier who served from the

commencement to the close of that great war, the infantry organization to which he belonged was

never in close proximity to the First Iowa Cavalry, and he has no personal knowledge of the

deeds of individual heroism of its members; but, if he had such knowledge, or had been able to

obtain it from others, the limitations under which this sketch has been compiled would conclude

the reference to such cases, beyond the very limited number found in the official reports. The

brief paragraphs opposite the names contained in the subjoined Roster must therefore suffice.

The official records from which the Roster is compiled give only a brief summary of the facts

connected with the service of each member of the regiment, but they are the only source of

information to which the compiler has had access. While some errors and omissions will no

doubt be found, it is believed that, in the main, the records have been correctly kept, and that this

compilation will preserve to posterity the record of these brave men of Iowa, who, nearly half a

century ago, went forth to fight the battles of their country. In conclusion, it may be justly

claimed for the First Iowa Cavalry—as an organization—that it made a record second to none in

the long list of splendid Iowa regiments which won glory and honor for State and Nation in one

of the greatest wars in history.
