At the

Chattanooga.
At
Chickamauga the regiment lost 14 killed, 71 wounded, and 18 missing,
Major Samuel C. Brown being among the killed.
In October, 1863, the regiment was placed in
Harker's (3d) Brigade,
Newton's (2d) Division, Fourth Corps, in which command it fought during the long and bloody campaign against
Atlanta.
General Harker was killed while leading the assault on
Kenesaw Mountain, June 27, 1864.
After the fall of
Atlanta the Fourth Corps served in
Tennessee, on the campaign against
