Regimental History
Fourteenth Infantry.— Col., John W. Johnston; Lieut.-Col., Richard McMichael; Maj., Charles N. Watts. The 14th regiment came from different parts of the state and was mustered in from April 22 to May 2, at Harrisburg, for three months' service. On May 9 it was ordered to Lancaster, where it was treated with marked hospitality and remained until June 3. The next two weeks were spent at Chambersburg and the remainder of the month at Sharpsburg. On July 3 the force under Gen. Patterson arrived at Martinsburg, W. Va., and while here the 14th was presented by the ladies of the city with a beautiful flag. With the preceding regiments the 14th joined in the marches to Bunker Hill, Charlestown and Harper's Ferry and then returned to Carlisle for muster out. One company was captured at Falling Waters in July.
