M. on Oct. 29 the Nineteenth regiment joined its brigade and took up the line of march for Falmouth, in pursuitFalmouth, in pursuit of Lee. Gen. Couch was in command, Gen. Sumner having been granted leave of absence. The day was beautiful, the sun shining brightly in a clear sky and the air just cool enough to make marching cobarefooted. With the Right Grand Division leading, the army reached the bank of the river at Falmouth, opposite Fredericksburg, on Nov. 17th, having marched about 40 miles in three days.

Chapter 24: the winter camp at Falmouth. The men of the army were much depressed over the result of the battle of Fredericksburg, but rest, better rations and the coming of the paymaster soon put them in a good frame of mind. Lieut. Col. Devereux returned to the command of the regiment during January and Capt. Henry A. Hag duty on Jan. 24. First Lieut. Samuel S. Prime, worn out by the fatiguing campaigns, resigned on Jan. 21 and received an honorable discharge.

Chapter 26: a period of rest in camp at Falmouth. After waiting at the Lacy House for a short time, the regiment was ordered to return to its old camp at Falmouth. While here a large number of British army officers from Canada were, by international courtesy, permitted to visit the army of the Potomac, even at the very front. They were entertained by the Commander-in-chief and then by the various corps commanders. They visited Gen. Hancock, and early one morning Lieut. Col. Devereux rFalmouth. While here a large number of British army officers from Canada were, by international courtesy, permitted to visit the army of the Potomac, even at the very front. They were entertained by the Commander-in-chief and then by the various corps commanders. They visited Gen. Hancock, and early one morning Lieut. Col. Devereux received a note from Gen. Hancock asking him if he would parade his regiment at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and put it through the manual peculiar to it. He replied that his boys would be ready at the appointed time. He said nothing to the officers or men of the fact that they were to give an exhibition drill at 2 o'clock, preferring to take them by surprise. The headquarters of Gen. Hancock were some distance away, on a rising ground from which he could overlook all the camps in his command. A

s being an authentic report. While it may not be the original, verbatim, it is made from notes taken on the field during said campaign, and is substantially correct: The Second Corps, of which the Nineteenth Massachusetts formed a part, left Falmouth, on the Rappahannock, several days after the main body of the army, acting as its rear guard, struck across Manassas Plains to Thoroughfare Gap, where it laid three days; then followed up the East side of the Blue Ridge to Edward's Ferry, Md., crossing after nightfall and then camping. During the march from Falmouth to Edward's Ferry there was some insignificant skirmishing with cavalry, mounted troops and light batteries, but nothing of serious moment. Leaving Edward's Ferry early in the morning, after its arrival there, the corps marched by Poolesville and the Monocacy to Frederick City, Md.; thence through Liberty to Uniontown, making a forced march from early dawn until 9 o'clock in the evening. There had been some cavalry skir
