The newly recruited regiments, accordingly, ranged in numbers from 845 to 1025. The most of them left their rendezvous with full ranks, especially those which were raised under the second call for troops, in 1862. As their numbers became reduced by disease and wounds, fresh recruits were added, so that the total enrollment of a regiment was often increased several hundred before its term of service expired. Nominally, an infantry regiment consisted of one thousand men, less the depletion incidental to its service, the actual number of effectives being far below the nominal one. In addition to the infantry, there were 32 regiments of heavy artillery in the volunteer service. It would be unnecessa

York regiments became so reduced in numbers that, at Gettysburg, they were consolidated into two companies each; the One Hundred and Sixteenth Pennsylvania had been consolidated into four companies. The brigade, which was organized in 1861, consisted originally of three New York regiments, which selected numbers corresponding to those of certain famous Irish regiments in the British Army. The One Hundred and Sixteenth Pennsylvania and Twenty eighth Massachusetts were added in the fall of 1862. Each of the five regiments carried green flags, in addition to the national colors. While on the Peninsular and Antietam campaigns, the Twenty-Ninth Massachusetts was attached to the brigade, but after Antietam it was detached and its place was taken by the Twenty-eighth Massachusetts. In September, 1864, the remnant of the Seventh New York Heavy Artillery was added; but it was detached in February, 1865, and the Fourth New York Heavy Artillery took its place.

In some regiments there were men who had enlisted several weeks, often months, before their regiment was organized. On the other hand, some of the regiments raised under the second call (1862) organized and left for the front within thirty days after the first man signed the roll. The total enrollments are omitted for lack of space; but the number enrolled in three hundred of these regiments, the leading ones in point of loss, will be found in the various pages of Chapter X. The other regiments numbered about one thousand men each when organized, and received, on an average, 300 recruits. Some of them took the field with only 800 men or thereabouts, and received but few recrui

e ages of 18 and 45--as stated in the census of 1860, is used as a basis for calculating the different percentages. The increase of the military population in 1861-62 was greater, proportionately, in the north-western States; and, hence, if the percentage of men furnished were to be figured on a census of 1861-62, their ratios wo62, their ratios would be decreased more than those of the Atlantic States. It should be understood, also, that the military population was proportionately larger in the new States of the West than in the older States from whence so many of these people emigrated.
