NOTES. —The Seventy-third was recruited largely in Ross county, and was organized at Chillicothe, December 31, 1861. It left Ohio on the 24th of January, 1862, for West Virginia, where it served under Lander, Milroy, and Fremont, and was engaged in several expeditions and minor engagements. It fought at Manassas -then in McLean's (2d) Brigade, Schenck's (ist) Division, Sigel's Corps — losing 25 killed, 87 wounded, and 36 missing, with only 312 muskets taken into action. Soon after this battle the regiment was placed in Barlow's (ist) Brigade, Steinwehr's (2d) Division, Eleventh Corps, with which command it remained encamped in Virginia during the ensuing Maryland and Fredericksburg campaigns, and during the winter of i862-'63-Barlow's Brigade was only slightly engaged at Chancellorsville, but at Gettysburg the brigade (Smith's) did some hard fighting, the regiment losing 21 killed, 120 wounded, and 4 missing, out of about 300 present in action. In September the Seventy-third accompanied its corps to Tennessee, where it was engaged, a few weeks after, in the midnight battle of Wauhatchie. In that affair the Seventy-third Ohio and Thirty-third Massachusetts carried a strong position by storm — a gallant action, which General Grant alluded to in his official report as " one of the most daring feats of arms of the war." While on the Atlanta Campaign the Seventy-third was inWoods's (3d) Brigade, Ward's (tf) Division, Twentieth Corps. At Resaca it lost 10 killed, and 42 wounded ; at New Hope Church, 15 killed, and 59 wounded ; and at Bentonville (Cogswell's Brigade), 5 killed, and 25 wounded. _09491
