CHAPTER XXVII
COMPANY C, ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTH REGIMENT P.V.
Recruiting – To the Front – Services – Severe Losses – Distinguished Names – Roll
CAPTAIN Calvin A. Craig recruited a company at Greenville, Clarion county, Pa., in July and August, 1861. The company enrolled, during its term of service, two hundred and nineteen men, principally of Clarion county. A few of the men were from Clearfield county. Several others were from the vicinity of Oil City.
The regiment was organized at Pittsburgh September 9, 1861, and immediately proceeded to Washington City, and encamped at Kalorama Heights, where the troops were provided with blankets, tents, etc. Here the regiment received its full complement of companies, and, by order of General McClellan, it crossed the Potomac and encamped on the farm of one Hon. George Mason, their camp being named Camp Jameson, in honor of their brigade commander, General Charles D. Jameson. At Camp Jameson the regiment went into winter quarters, being supplied with Sibley tents and sheet iron stoves. Here it was drilled constantly.
On the 18th of December, 1861, the regiment was hastily marched to Pohick Church, expecting to engage the enemy, who had raised his flag over the church. When the Union troops reached the church they found that the enemy had retired across Ocquoquon Creek, and the church was left alone with its memories of the Washingtons, the Lees, and the Fairfaxes, who had erected it, and who had worshiped there. The soldiers who made that march, and those who watched there on picket, will remember that spot with feelings of veneration.
On the 18th of February, 1862, the regiment was ordered out on picket. Prior to this date, on the 5th of January, 1862, the regiment received, by the hand of Colonel J.K. Moorhead, on behalf of the State, a beautiful stand of colors, which was accepted by Colonel McKnight, on behalf of the regiment.
The troops moved on the 17th of March, 1862, and proceeded by steamer to Fortress Monroe. Here the regiment entered upon its first field duty. The regiment lay before Yorktown until it was evacuated. It advanced on the afternoon of May 4, and encamped on the other side of Yorktown. The regiment took part in the battle near Williamsburg.
The One Hundred and Fifth was the first to move on the 6th. Company C and two other companies were deployed as skirmishers to enter Williamsburg. Company C occupied the center of the advance. General Jameson and Colonel McKnight accompanied these three companies. Company C was the first to enter the town, and the regimental flag was hoisted over the courthouse by Sergeant William McNutt. Sergeant Joseph Craig, of Company C, captured a rebel cavalryman, himself, taking man, horse, carbine, and revolver. Other prisoners were taken.
The company was constantly on the move now, and on the 31st of May, when the regiment went into the battle of Fair Oaks, it was on fatigue duty with Company I.
Coming up to the scene of battle as soon as possible, they were formed by order of General Heintzelman on the right of the Fifty-seventh Pennsylvania. In the severe fighting that followed, Company C had four men wounded. The company joined the survivors of the other companies during the night. The regiment won its first laurels at a fearful price at Fair Oaks, having lost two officers and forty-one men killed, one hundred and seventeen wounded, and seventeen missing. It was engaged on the 25th of June, losing two men killed and six wounded. On the 30th of June it was engaged at Charles City Cross Roads, with a loss of fifty-six killed and wounded. That night it retired to Malvern Hill and was hotly engaged there July 1, 1862. The regiment went in with two hundred men, and lost one hundred and three in killed, wounded, and missing. This severe loss was caused by the regiment being under a constant fire of musketry and artillery for four hours, with no protection but a rail fence.
Colonel McKnight resigned July 25, and in the absence of Lieutenant-Colonel Corbet, Captain Craig, of Company C, assumed command of the regiment. From Harrison’s Landing the regiment went to Alexandria, arriving there August 22.
On the night of the 28th of August the little force under Captain Craig was attacked by a superior force of confederates under General Gordon, and after a brave struggle Captain Craig and about one-half his men were captured, the others escaped in the darkness. Captain Craig was found in the hospital at Manassas the following Friday. The captured men were returned to our lines the next day, August 29. The One Hundred and Fifth at the Second Bull Run was commanded by Captain Craig, who was wounded in the ankle.
Colonel McKnight returned to the regiment on the 20th of September and was recommissioned Colonel.
On the 13th of December the regiment crossed the river at Fredericksburg and remained under fire forty-two hours, losing two officers and eleven men.
At Chancellorsville, May 3, the regiment played an honorable part. In that terrible battle Colonel McKnight was shot through the head and killed. Colonel Craig then took command. The regiment went into the Chancellorsville fight with twenty-seven officers and three hundred and twenty men. It came out with sixteen officers and two hundred and twenty men. Lieutenant Colonel Craig was commissioned Colonel on the 21st of May. On the 27th of May General Sickles presented the “Kearney Badge of Honor” to those of the regiment who by bravery and good conduct had merited it. The members of Company C who received the “Cross of Honor” were Corporal Andrew A. Harley, and privates Charles C. Weaver, and Samuel H. Mays.
In the battle of Gettysburg the regiment lost one officer and fourteen killed, thirteen officers and one hundred and eleven men wounded, and nine missing, a total of one hundred and sixty-eight out of two hundred and forty-seven who went in. Colonel Craig was here again wounded.
The regiment was engaged at Auburn, at Kelly’s Ford, at Locust Grove, at Mine Run, and in the Wilderness campaign, in which Colonel Craig was again seriously wounded and was only saved from death by his devoted men holding the artery so that it could not bleed. At Spottsylvania Sergeant Harley of Company C, color bearer, was wounded and the colors passed to Company F.
On the 16th of August, at Deep Bottom, Colonel Craig was mortally wounded and died on the 17th.
At the battle of Boydton Plank Road Captain Patton, of Company C, was killed while fighting against superior numbers. Lieutenant Joseph B. Brown then took command of Company C and was mustered out with the company July 11, 1865. The company participated in the campaign which terminated at Appomattox.
The regiment of which this company was a part – the One Hundred and Fifth Pennsylvania Veteran Volunteers – is one of which Pennsylvania is justly proud. Space would not permit as full an account of their trials and triumphs as they deserve.
