notes.--This regiment was raised through the efforts of
Colonel McCarter, a Methodist clergyman who had served as a Chaplain in the three months service.
It was organized at
Lebanon, Pa., in October, 1861.
In March, 1862, it was assigned to
Peck's Brigade,
Couch's Division, Fourth Corps, and went to the
Peninsula.
The regiment was in the hottest of the fight at
Fair Oaks, where it displayed remarkable steadiness under fire.
Its losses there were 20 killed, 84 wounded, and 22 missing;
Colonel McCarter was severely wounded and lost two horses killed.
After
Antietam the division was transferred to the Sixth Corps, the Ninety-third becoming a part of
Rowley's Brigade,
Newton's Division.
General Wheaton commanded the brigade at
Salem Heights, where the regiment lost 8 killed, 53 wounded, and 18 missing. In February, 1864, about 300 reenlisted, and a large number of recruits were received.
The regiment entered the spring campaign of 1864 with about 750 men; in the opening
battle at the Wilderness it lost 15 killed and 114 wounded, which was followed the next week by further heavy losses at
Spotsylvania.
It fought under
Sheridan in the
Valley, and at the
Opequon lost 7 killed and 32 wounded. Returning to
Petersburg, it was engaged with severe loss, March 25, 1865, in the advance of the Sixth Corps at the time
Fort Stedman was re-captured.
Having served through the whole war, it was mustered out June 27, 1865.
