New Orleans and in March joined Gen. Canby's army in the operations
against Mobile. It took part in the investment of Fort Blakely and was
in the front line when the charge was made which resulted in its
capture. While at Mobile it was joined by one new company and
subsequently by five others raising it to a full regiment. On April 27
it reached Montgomery, Ala., where, in July, it received from the 81st
and 114th Ill. the men not entitled to be mustered out with those
regiments. It remained at Montgomery doing garrison duty until April 1,
1866, when it was mustered out. |
