HISTOKY OF THIRTY-SEVENTH INFANTRY

The Thirty-seventh Infantry, known as "Fremont Rifles." was organized by Colonel

Julius White in August, 1861, and was mustered into service September 18th. The Regi-ment rendezvoused at Camp Webb. On the 19th of September it left for St. Louis, TheKegiment numbered: Field and staff, 15; company officers, 30 and 964 enlisted men. It

was composed of ten companies of infantry and two of cavalry. Companies C and F werefrom Lake county, commanded respectively by Captain Eugene B. Payne and Captain

E, B. Messer; Companies A and H, from Rock Island county, commanded respectively byCaptain John A. Jordon and Captain John B. Prick; Companies D and G, from Chicago,

commanded respectively by Captain John W. Laimbeer and Captain Henry N. Frisbie;

Company I, from Boone, commanded by Captain Ransom Kennicott; Company E, fromLaSalle, commanded by Captain P. B. Rust; Company B, from Henry and Stark, com-manded by Captain Charles V, Dickinson, and Company K, from Vermilion, commandedby Captain William P. Black.

Before departure, the Regiment was presented with battle flags by the Board of Tradeof Chicago, and upon reporting to General Fremont, at St. Louis, Mo., was reviewed byhim and his staff in front of his headquarters, upon which occasion ribbons of red, white

and blue were tied to the spear-head of the battle flag of the Regiment by the hands of the

distinguished wife of the General, Mrs. Jesse Benton Freeraont. The Regiment was armed—the eight inside companies with Springfield rifles, and the two flanking companies andall non-commissioned officers with Colt's repeating rifle (seven shooters).

About October 2, the Regiment proceeded to Booneville. Mo., where it went into

camp. About October 10th, Captains Black and Payne embarked their companies onboard the steamer "War Eagle," and proceeded up the Missouri to Arrow Rock, and after

exploring Saline county for the rebel General Claib Jackson, returned. About October 13,

Captain Payne was left in command of the post at Booneville with Companies C and H,and seven companies of Home Guards, and Colonel White proceeded with the other eight

companies, as a part of General Fremont's army, to the capture of Springfield, Mo., thenheld by Price's (rebel) army. The rebels retreating, the Regiment went into camp on the

Lamine river, where it was joined February 7th, 1862, by Captain Payne's command fromBooneville, when the Regiment became a part of the Army of the Frontier, under GeneralsCurtis and Herron. From the Lamine, the Regiment marched by way of Cassville, Mo.,

along the "Wire road," skirmishing all the way with the retreating rebel army, to SugarCreek, in Arkansas, where, on the 6th, 7th and 8th of March, 1862. it participated in the

battle of Pea Ridge, Arkansas, where, although the rebel army outnumbered the Federalarmy two to one, we won a complete and brilliant victory, and saved St. Louis from Price's

grasp. At this battle. Col. Julius White commanded the Brigade, composed of the Thirty-

THIRTY-SEVENTH INFANTRY. tl

After this battle, the Thirty-seventh Infantry, with the Peoria Battery and Hubbard'sMissouri Cavalry, were stationed at CHSsville, Mo., on outpost duty.

In June. 1862, General White received his commission as General, and departed east to

report for duty. Lieutenant Colonel Barnes was then promoted Colonel; Major John Chas.Black Lieutenant Colonel, and Captain H. N. Prisbie Major.

During the summer of 1862, the report coming in that a large force of rebels and Indianswere at Neosho, Mo., 40 miles distant. Lieutenant Colonel Black, taking all the available

force at the Post, started at sunrise, marched to Neosho, met and defeated the enemy anddrove him into the Indian Territory; returned to Neosho at midnight, and reached Cass-

ville by sundown the next day. with over 300 prisoners and a large number of horses, mulesand wagons captured from the enemy, having marched 100 miles and fought a battle in

two days.

The Thirty-seventh guarded the frontier in southwest Missouri all through the summerof 1862, having frequent fights with roving bands under Coffee and Quantrell, alternating'

between Springfield and Cassville, Mo.

During the summer of 1862, Company F, of Thirty-seventh Illinois, Captain E. B.

Messer commanding, was detailed as a guard of the College Military Prison at Springfield,

Mo., and occupied part of the summer in the construction of a stockade, and otherwisefortifying Springfield.

September 29, 1862, found the Thirty-seventh again on the march after the enemy.October 1, reached Pond Springs, Mo. October 4th, drove the rebels out of Newtonia. Mo.;

thence to Gadfly, thence to Cassville. Mo., thence to old battle-field of Pea Ridge, thence to

Huntsville. Ark., arriving there October 20th. Started on the evening of October 22 for

Bentonville; marched all night. Crossed White river, and camped four miles south of

Cross Hollows October 23d. Reached Osage Springs October 24th. Broke camp on the

evening of October 27th, marched all night, and at daylight surprised the rebels at Fayette-

ville. Ark.; took some prisoners, and returned to Osage Springs October 30th.

Continued marching in light order, chasing rebels from one place to another, until De-

cember 1, 1862, when the Regiment went into camp at Camp Lyon, Mo.

On account of the rapid marching qualities of the Thirty-seventh, and the fact that it

was always on the march in pursuit of the enemy, when not actually engaged in battle withhim, it gained the sobriquet of "The Illinois Greyhounds," by which name it was knownall over Missouri and Arkansas.

December 3. 1862. Colonel Barnes having retired from the service, and LieutenantColonel Black being Colonel, H. N. Frisbie Lieutenant Colonel, and Eugene B. Payne,Captain of Company C, Major, the order came to the Regiment, then at Camp Lyon. Mo.,

to proceed to the relief of General Blunt, then besieged at Sugar Hill, Ark.

Leaving the baggage to follow, the Regiment started for the relief of Blunt, andmarched to Prairie Grove, Ark., in three days, a distance of 112 miles, double-quicking the

last ten miles.

On the morning of December 7, 1862, engaged the enemy at Prairie Grove, Ark., nearIllinois Creek. General Herron commanded the Division at that battle, and Colonel Dye,Twentieth Iowa, commanded the Brigade composed of his own regiment, the Thirty-

seventh Illinois, and one battery. The battle lasted all day, and was one of the most hotly

contested and bloody battles of the war, considering the number engaged.

The Thirty-seventh lost about one-seventh of its number in killed and wounded.

Colonel Black, at this battle, commanded the Regiment with one arm in a sling, shat-

tered at the battle of Pea Ridge, and late in the fight had his other arm shattered by a rifle

ball. Many of the company officers were killed and wounded.

That night General Marmaduke. commander of the rebel army, and under a flag of

truce, approached the outpost, under command of Major Payne, Officer of the Day, andafter being disarmed and blindfolded by that officer, was escorted by him to the head-

quarters of General Herron. Exactly what transpired at this conference is not known,except that the battle was named Prairie Grove. It is surmised, however, that GeneralHerron demanded an unconditional surrender, to which General Marmaduke could not

fully accede. Returning, the rebel leader muffled his artillery wheels, and fled during the

night across the mountains. The Thirty-seventh accompanied General Herron the next

day, and rursued the rebel army over the Boston mountains to Fort Smith, Ark., whereGeneral Marmaduke, with the remnant of his rebel army, crossed the river and escaped.

The Thirty-seventh returned to Prairie Grove, and as a part of General Herrou's

Army of the Frontier, spent the winter and spring of 1862-63 in marching from point to

point, in Missouri and Arkansas, having numerous skirmishes with the enemy, until April


24, 1863, when the Regiment proceeded to St. Louis, and from thence to Cape Girardeau, Mo.,

where it engaged the enemy single-handed, and drove him across the sunljen country to

Challs Blu ffs, on the St Francis River. It was at this battle of Chalk Bluffs, fought May 2,

1863. that the brave Lieutenant Joseph Eaton, Company H, was killed.

Returning to St. Louis, the Regiment accompanied General Herron's Division to Vicks-

burg. Miss., where about June 13, 1863, it helped to completely environ v^icksburg by closing

up the gap between General Logan and the river on the south side. Major Eugene B. Payne

was here detailed as "Picket Officer" of General Herron's Division, and had full charge of

the rifle pits during the siege. The Regiment took a prominent part in the siege of Vicks-

burg, and being hardy veterans, marched with every man into the captured city, July 4, 1863.

July 13, 1863, the Regiment proceeded up Yazoo River, landing near Yazoo City and cap-

turing that place after a hard fight, taking many prisoners. Thence marched to the Big

Black River in pursuit of enemy. Was from thence ordered back to Vicksburg, thence to

Port Hudson, and from thence, August 13. proceeded to New Orleans, La., and went into

camp at Carrollton. September 4, 1863, the Regiment was reviewed by General U. S Grant.

Feb., 1864, the Regiment guarded the Rio Grande River as far north as Ringgold Barracks.

In Feb., 1864, the Regiment re-enlisted for three years, and was re-mustered Feb. 28, 1864.

Receiving a furlough of thirty days the "boys" visited their homes for the first time in

three years. Reporting at Chicago, the Regiment proceeded to Memphis, Tenn.. April 30th,

where Colonel Black with his Brigade was sent after the rebel General Forrest, whom he

forced to retreat into interior of State. Returning to Memphis the Regiment proceeded to

"Atchafalaya Bayou," where General Black's Brigade constructed the celebrated "Steam-

boat Bridge" over which General N. P. Banks escaped from the rebel General Dick Taylor.

burned the houses of the leader of the Rebels, and General Steele issued his proclamation

that if his boats were fired on again his troops would burn all buildings within 15 miles of

the shooting. This put a stop to it. On April 29 reached Montgomery, Ala., (seat of Rebel
