The heroic part taken by Iowa in the war may be better appreciated by a study of the following figures:
There were only three missing numbers in the Iowa line.
The 41st was a battalion which was transferred to the 7th Iowa Cavalry.
The 42d and 43d Regiments failed to complete their organizations.
Missouri.--The losses of the Missouri regiments were severe in proportion to their numerical strength.
The regiments were small and received but few recruits.
It could not have well been otherwise.
Throughout the war the State was one vast battle-ground, and was continually overrun with contending armies.
