NOTES. —A regiment remarkable for the famous names of its various commanders, while others with brilliant National reputations also appeared on its rolls in subordinate capacities. It was mustered-in for three years, on the i ith of June, 1861, at Columbus, O., leaving the State in July, and proceeding to West Virginia, where for a time it was divided — the right wing, under Lieutenant-Colonel Stanley Matthews, operating against the guerrilla bands, while the other five companies were stationed at Weston. Having reunited, the regiment was present at the battle of Carnifex Ferry, and at several minor affairs, remaining in West Virginia until September, 1862, when the Kanawha Division joined McClellan's Army and was assigned temporarily to the Ninth Corps. Under com mand of Lieutenant-Colonel R. B. Hayes, the Twenty-third opened the battle of South Mountain, where its gallant commander was severely-wounded, the loss of the regiment aggregating 32 killed, 95 wounded, and 3 missing. Three days later, at Antietam, it lost 8 killed, 59 wounded, and 2 missing; it was then in Scammon's Brigade. Soon after the battle of Antietam the Kanawha Division returned to West Virginia, making its winter-quarters at the Falls of the Great Kanawha, after which it encamped at Charlestown, W.Va., during the year 1863, and in the spring of 1864. The Twenty-third fought at Cloyd's Mountain, and then served during the summer of 1864 in Crook's Corps, of Hunter's Army. In the fall of 1864 it participated, with the Kighth Corps (Crook's), in all of Sheridan's battles in the Shenandoah Valley, after which it returned to West Virginia where it remained until July, 1865, when it was mustered out. _09097
