NOTES. —This regiment was raised through the efforts of Colonel McCarter, a Methodist clergyman who had served as a Chaplain in the three months service. It was organized at Lebanon, Pa., in October, 1861. In March, 1862, it was assigned to Peck's Brigade, Couch's Division, Fourth Corps, and went to the Peninsula. The regi ment was in the hottest of the fight at Fair Oaks, where it displayed remarkable steadiness under fire. Its losses there were 20 killed, 84 wounded, and 22 missing; Colonel McCarter was severely wounded and lost two horses killed. After Antietam the division was transferred to the Sixth Corps, the Ninety-third becoming a part of Rowley's Brigade, Newton's Division. General Wheaton commanded the brigade at Salem Heights, where the regiment lost 8 killed, 53 wounded, and 18 missing. In February, 1864, about 300 reenlisted, and a large num ber of recruits were received. The regiment entered the spring campaign of 1864 with about 750 men; in the opening battle at the Wilderness it lost 15 killed and 114 wounded, which was followed the next week by further heavy losses at Spotsylvania. It fought under Sheridan in the Valley, and at the Opequon lost 7 killed and 32 wounded. Returning to Petersburg, it was engaged with severe loss, March 25, 1865, in the advance of the Sixth Corps at the time Fort Stedman was re-captured. Having served through the whole war, it was mustered out June 27, 1865. _08194
