nto the hands of the enemy. The capture or destruction of the squadron, with some two millions of dollars, would involve the blockade of the Red River, and great inconvenience to the army, if not its destruction, and would also for a time give the rebels control of the Mississippi. After the gunboats succeeded in passing over the bar near Grand Ecore, the army moved from there to Alexandria, having on the way several severe skirmishes with the enemy, and a battle at Monett's Bluffs, on Cane River. On the arrival of the fleet at the falls near Alexandria, which are about a mile in length, filled with rugged rocks, it was discovered that the water had fallen so low that it would be impossible for the vessels to pass them. This difficulty had been anticipated by many officers of the army, who were acquainted with the treacherous character of Red River navigation, before our return to Grand Ecore, and the idea had been suggested of rescuing the squadron by means of a dam.

with its garrison — about three hundred and fifty men, eleven pieces of artillery, and many small arms. Our loss was but slight. On the fifteenth he pushed forward to Alexandria, which place he reached on the eighteenth. On the twenty-first he had an engagement with the enemy at Henderson Hill, in which he defeated him, capturing two hundred and ten prisoners and four pieces of artillery. On the twenty-eighth he again attacked and defeated the enemy under the rebel General Taylor, at Cane river. By the twenty-sixth General Banks had assembled his whole army at Alexandria, and pushed forward to Grand Ecore. On the morning of April sixth he moved from Grand Ecore. On the afternoon of the seventh his advance engaged the enemy near Pleasant Hill and drove him from the field. On the same afternoon the enemy made a stand eight miles beyond Pleasant Hill, but was again compelled to retreat. On the eighth, at Sabine Cross-roads and Peach Hill, the enemy attacked and defeated his adv

his own State, nor were many of them engaged in the important twin battles of Sabine Cross Roads and Pleasant Hill, April 8-9, 1864. The Massachusetts troops actually involved were the 3d and 31st Mass. infantries (the latter mounted) and the 2d and 13th batteries, brigaded under Colonel Dudley and assigned to the cavalry division. They lost in all about eighteen killed and about one hundred and fifty wounded, missing or prisoners. In the battle which took place at the crossing of Cane River, La., April 23, 1864, the 31st and 38th Mass. infantries were again engaged with loss, the 3d Cavalry with some wounded (during several days of skirmishing) and the 13th Battery without loss. For some reason Irwin fails to give his usual accurate statistics on this occasion. He, however, mentions the 38th Mass. as present (pp. 328, 331） This was the last pitched battle fought before the transfer of the 19th Army Corps from Louisiana to Virginia, where it was to take part in the Shenandoa

ver campaign; in the latter part of July, organized as infantry, it was transferred to Maryland, becoming part of the 2d Brigade, 19th Army Corps, and engaged in the battles of the Opequon and Cedar Creek, going into winter quarters at Pleasant Valley, Md., on Dec. 28, 1864. In February, 1865, it was again equipped as cavalry, and in March returned to Virginia. At the close of the previous year the three independent cavalry companies were mustered out and their places were filled by other Massachusetts men. On May 20 those who had originally formed the 41st Infantry were mustered out. The regiment left Washington for Fort Leavenworth, Kan., June 14, 1865; served in Kansas and Nebraska during the summer, and was mustered out of service Sept. 28, 1865. Proceeding at once to Boston, the members of the regiment were paid off and discharged, October 5, at Gallop's Island. Present also at Irish Bend, Henderson Hill, Georgia Landing, Cane River, Muddy Bayou, Piney Woods and Snag Point.
