NOTES.— Organized at Keene, N. H., leaving the State Dec. 25, 1861. It sailed from Annapolis, Jan. 7, 1862, with the Burnside expedition, disembarking at Hatteras Island, where it went into a camp of instruction. After some active service with Reno's Brigade in North Carolina, it returned to Virginia with the Ninth Corps, in August, 1862. It had been assigned in the meantime to Nagle's (ist) Brigade, Reno's (2d) Division, in which command it fought at Manassas, where it lost 30 killed, 11 7 wounded, and 70 missing, out of 450 engaged; the missing ones were killed or wounded men who fell into the enemy's hands. In March, 1863, the Ninth Corps was transferred to the West, where the regiment spent two pleasant months on post duty in Kentucky. It then went to Mississippi where it participated in the siege operations about Vicksburg and Jackson ; thence it returned to Kentucky, and in the spring of 1864 rejoined the army of the Potomac in Virginia. While in Kentucky— December, 1863 — two hundred and eighty-eight of the men reenlisted, and were furloughed, leaving the recruits in camp. The regiment took the field with Grant, in May, 1864, as a part of General S. G. Griffin's ( 2 d) Brigade, Potter's ( 2 d) Division. Lt.-Col. Henry H. Pearson was killed at the North Anna. In the siege of Petersburg, the regiment occupied an exposed position in the trenches, losing men daily; its losses there, from June 2 oth to August 2 oth, 1864, amounted to 18 killed and 108 wounded; being under fire constantly, the nervous strain and fatigue was terrible. _04049
