notes.--The Ninety-fifth lost six field officers, killed in action; two colonels, two
lieutenant-colonels, a major and an adjutant,--a loss in mounted officers, with but one parallel in all the regiments in the war. I was raised in
Philadelphia, and arrived at
Washington in October, 1861.
It passed the winter of 1861-2 in winter-quarters near
Alexandria, Va., and took the field in March, 1862.
After taking part in the advance on
Manassas, it proceeded to the
Peninsula, with
Newton's Brigade,
Franklin's Division, and with this command was engaged at
West Point.
Slocum succeeded to the command of the division, which, under his charge, distinguished itself at
Gaines's Mill.
In that battle
Colonel Gosline and
Major Wm. B. Hubbs were killed; the regiment lost there 10 killed, 84 wounded, and 18 missing. At
Salem Heights the regiment fought in
Russell's Brigade of
Brooks's Division, its losses there amounting to 23 killed, 110 wounded, and 20 missing; total, 153.
In this action, Colonel Town,
Lieutenant-Colonel Hall,
Adjutant Dunton, and two line officers were killed.
About 250 men reenlisted, and, a large number of recruits having been received, the Ninety-fifth entered the
Wilderness campaign with nearly its full complement of men.
Lieutenant-Colonel Edward Carroll, the commandant of the regiment, fell dead in the first day's fighting at the
Wilderness.
During the fighting at
Spotsylvania, it lost 26 killed, 82 wounded, and 27 missing; and at
Cedar Creek, 8 killed, 27 wounded, and 4 missing.
