HISTORY OF EIGHTY-THIRD INFANTRY.

The Eighty-third Infantry was orgranized at Monmouth in August, 1862. by Colonel A. C.Harding, and was mustered into the United States' service August 21.

Companies A, B, C. F and H were recruited in Warren county; D. in Mercer; E. G, I andK. in Knox. The Regiment moved from camp August 25, via Burlington and St. Louis to

Cairo, arriving there the 29th, and reporting to Brigadier General Tuttle. commanding post.

September 3, moved to Fort Henry. On the 5th, moved to Fort Donelson. leaving two com-

panies at Fort Heiman and three at Fort Henry. The Regiment remained at Fort Donelsonduring tie year. Colonel W. W. Lowe, Fifth Iowa Cavalry, commanding Brigade.

The companies at Forts Henry and Heiman subsequently rejoined the Regiment and it

remained at Fort Donelson until September 20, 1863, when the right wing moved to Clarks-

ville. The Regiment had heavy guard duty to perform and as the whole country, especially

the banks of the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers, were infested with guerrillas, we haddaily skirmishes with the enemy. Some of them were quite severe, as at Waverly, Tenn.,

and at Garretsburg. Ky., where the lamented General Ranson, then Colonel of the EleventhIllinois, had command.

On the 3d of February, 1863, at Port Donelson, nine companies of the Eighty-third, with

Company C, Second Illinois Light Artillery, successfully resisted the attack of Forrest andWheeler with 8,000 men. The battle lasted from 1:30 until 8:30 o'clock P. M., when the enemywas compelled to retire with a loss of 800, killed and wounded. The loss of the Regimentwas 13 killed and 51 wounded. Colonel Harding was promoted to Brigadier General for gal-

lant conduct on this occasion and Lfeutenant Colonel A. A. Smith to Colonel. Among the

killed were Captain P. E. Reed, Company A, Lieutenant Harmon D. Bissell, Quartermasterof the Regiment, and First Sergeant James Campbell, Company C. Among the woundedwas Captain John McClanahan, of Company B, who while in the act of changing positions to

meet an attack, was wounded with a minnie ball, from the effects o! which he died Febru-

ary 23.

On the morning of the 20th of August, 1864. Captain William M. Turnbull.of Company B,

with eleven of his company, left Fort Donelson in pursuit of a party of five guerillas, whowere making their way to the Tennessee River with a lot of horses, but failing to overtake

them he was overpowered while returning to his command by a party of guerrillas secreted

in the timber, and he and seven of his men were killed, while one had both his legs broken,

but he was afterward cowardly murdered by guerrillas, who found him lying helpless in a

barn where some humane citizen had taken him for safety. But three of the party escapedto tell the sad fate of their companions.

While at Clarksville the Regiment was engaged in several expeditions under Major Gen-eral L. H. Rousseau in pursuit of Forrest and Wheeler, who were attempting the destruction

of Gejieral Sherman's communications.

During the year 1864. the Regiment had some two hundred miles of communications to

guard and much heavy patrol duty. During the winter of 1864-'65. the Eighty-third was onprovost duty at Nashville, Tenn.

Before the muster out of the Regiment, the following order was received by Colonel

Smith commanding.

HEADQUARTERS DISTRICT OP MIDDLE TENNESSEE.Nashville. Tenn., May 31, 1865.

Colonel A. A. Smith, Comniandina Fifth Sub. District Middle Tennessee.

Deae Colonel.—By an order just received the troops of 1862 will be mustered out of

service. Your Regiment will go out under that order. I am unwilling to part with you and


your officers and men without expressing my highest commendation of the soldierly bear-

ing and gentlemanly conduct of all during the time they have been under my command.At the time when I most needed brave men and steady soldiers to drive Wheeler and For-

rest out of the district I was but too happy to avail myself of the services of as many of yourRegiment as could be spared for that duty. And relying greatly upon them I was not disap-

pointed in their deportment.I have not been troubled with complaints against them for disorderly conduct and ma-

rauding, but their deportment in the army and community has been brave and soldierly,

proving that the brave man and true soldier is always honest and just. I can truly say I

do not know a regiment in the service whose brave and soldierly bearing more fully entitles

it to the respect and gratitude of the country than the Eighty-third Infantry, and you andthey will take with you. individually and collectively, my sincere thanks for your efficient

services and my kindest wishes for your future welfare in all things.

I am. Colonel, very truly, etc.,

LOVEL H. ROSSEAU,Major General Commanding-

On the 26th of June the Regiment was mustered out at Nashville and moved for Chicago^Brevet Brigadier General Arthur A. Smith commanding, where it received final pay and'

discharge July 4, 1865.
