NOTES. —The Fourth left Brattleboro on the 2ist of September, 1861, joining the other regiments of the brigade at Chain Bridge, Va. It was engaged on picket duty, varied by an occasional reconnoissance, until March, 1862, when active service in the field commenced. It passed through the Peninsular and Maryland campaigns with slight loss, no close fighting occurring until it engaged the enemy at Fredericksburg, Dec. 13, 1862. In that battle it fought on the skirmish line, where it lost 11 killed, 43 wounded, and 2 missing; 4 men were killed and 14 wounded, in Company B, by a single discharge of canister. At the Wilderness, Colonel Foster commanding, the regiment encountered a terrible musketry fire, losing 41 killed, 223 wounded, and 4 missing—a total of 268, out of less than 600 engaged ; 7 officers were killed and 10 wounded, while the missing ones all met the same fate. On June 23, 1864, in the affair at the Weldon Railroad, 8 officers and 133 men of the regiment were surrounded and captured, together with four companies of the Eleventh Vermont. Half of these men died in confederate prisons. Two hundred and ten of the men reenlisted, which, together with the recruits, preserved the organization after the muster-out in September, 1864, enabling the regiment to still hold its place in the renowned brigade and participate in all the subsequent battles of the corps. _04328
