eenforcements were coming on the run, but I knew that before they could reach the threatened point the Confederates, unless checked, would seize the position. I would have ordered that regiment in if I had known every man would be killed. It had to be done, and I was glad to find such a gallant body of men at hand, willing to make the terrible sacrifice that the occasion demanded. The regiment took 262 officers and men into this affair. The morning report of the First Minnesota for June 30th--the last return made before the battle — shows 27 officers and 358 men present for duty, not including a company of sharpshooters attached (Co. L), which was not present, having been detailed as a support to Kirby's Battery. This number--present for duty --included the non-combatants, the Chaplain, Quartermaster, three Surgeons, Quartermaster-Sergeant, Commissary-Sergeant and his assistants, Hospital Steward and assistants, from ten to twenty musicians, ten company cooks, officers' serva

es of the age, in point of loss, are Waterloo and Gettysburg. Between them there is a remarkable similarity, both in numbers engaged and extent of casualties. At Waterloo, the French numbered 80,000 men, and 252 guns; Allison. the Allies numbered 72,000 men, and 186 guns. At Gettysburg, the Union Army numbered 82,000 men, and 300 guns; The Comte de Paris, in his history of the war, estimates that the union army had only 82,000 actually on the field. Gen. Meade's monthly return of June 30th, shows 99,131 Present for duty, equipped. Still, in view of the constant discrepancy between the number reported by Union regiments as present for duty, and the number reported by them as taken into action, the estimate of the Comte de Paris may be assumed to be substantially correct. It is very doubtful if Meade had over 82,000 men on the field, including the Sixth Corps, which was in reserve. Historians vary as to the numbers engaged at Waterloo. the Confederates, 70,000 men, and 250

missing out of 300 engaged, the loss occurring in a charge against a superior force; a charge which Custer pronounced unequalled for brilliancy and gallantry in the annals of warfare. in the spring campaign of 1864, the losses from May 4th to June 30th were 40 killed, 138 wounded, and 65 missing; total, 243. The list of battles given above are those only in which men were killed, but the regiment participated in many others in which it lost men wounded or captured.

At Hawes's Shop, Custer's Brigade fought dismounted, the Sixth Regiment losing 16 killed and 19 wounded out of 140 engaged. In Sheridan's cavalry campaign in 1864--from May 4th to June 30th--the Sixth lost 29 killed, 60 wounded, and 64 missing; many of the latter were killed or wounded. After the close of the war the brigade was ordered to the far West where it was engaged in fighting Indians. The Sixth was organized at Grand
