HISTORICAL SKETCH
FOURTH BATTERY IOWA LIGHT ARTILLERY

    The Fourth Iowa Battery was mustered into the service of the United States at Davenport, Iowa, on November 23, 1863. Its muster-in roll contains the names of one hundred fifty-two men, rank and The.' The official records show that the battery was first assigned to service on the northern frontier, and that it was associated with the troops under the command of General Sully, engaged in the protection of the settlers against incursions of the hostile tribes of Indians. While engaged in this service, the battery performed garrison duty, and there is no record of its having come into direct conflict with the Indians. It faithfully discharged the duty to which it was assigned, however, and thus assisted in guarding the frontier until February, 1864. It was then ordered South, going first to New Orleans, where it was again assigned to garrison duty, and continued in the discharge of that duty at New Orleans and. at other military posts during its entire term of service.

    The battery was well equipped for active service in the field It was composed of good and true-men, a number of whom had seen service in other Iowa military organizations. It had a capable and efficient set of officers, and only lacked the opportunity of meeting the enemy in actual conflict, in order to have enabled it to establish a record of valor and courage equal to that made by the other three batteries which the State of Iowa sent into the field. Lacking such opportunity, it nevertheless rendered important service at the various posts to which it was assigned. In its comparatively brief term of service and in the limited sphere to which its operations were confined it obeyed every order which it received, and is, therefore, entitled to the credit of having done an that was required of it by the different Generals under whose command it served.

    1 Report of Adjutant General of Iowa, 1864, pages 189 to 193 Inclusive Original Roster or the Battery.

    A brief summary of the history and service of each of the military organizations in the armies of the United States, during the period from 1861 to 1865, is contained in "Dyer's Compendium of the War of the Rebellion," from which the following quotation, relating to the Fourth Iowa Battery, is made:

    "Organized at Davenport, November 23, 1863. Attached to the Department of the Northwest to February, 1864. Defenses of New Orleans, Department of the Gulf, to June, 1864. District of LaFourche, Department of the Gulf, to July, 1865

    Service: Garrison duty in the Department of the Northwest, until February, 1864. Ordered to New Orleans, La., and assigned to duty in the defenses

Page 1786

of that city, and at Thibodeaux, La., District of LaFourche, until July, 1865. Mustered out July 14, 1865." 2

     The foregoing condensed statement embraces all the history that is obtainable of the service of the battery. No details are given in the reports of its officers on file in the office of the Adjutant General of Iowa, except as to the changes noted in the monthly returns, and entered upon the records, including the deaths from disease, the discharges for disability or from whatever cause, and promotions of its commissioned and non-commissioned officers and privates. Additional enlistments are also reported, and, therefore, the subjoined roster, carefully transcribed from the records, contains all that can be found with reference to each man whose name was at any time borne upon the rolls of the battery. As heretofore stated, the Fourth Iowa Battery performed faithful service, doing all that was required of it, and it is, therefore, entitled to an honorable place in the history of Iowa soldiers.
