This is a fair record all around, and IL
was made in good, steady fighting, with
no disasters to swell the list In partlcu-
lar companies. The baptism OF blood
came in an action seldom heard OF al
this date-Blackburn's Ford, Va, July
1861. The regiment lost 13 killed out
right and one mortally wounded. vi
these 70 fell on the skIrmish line out OF
two companies, G. and II, killed In
each. Blackburn's Ford was an acct
dental collision on the banks OF Bull
RIM three days before the battle OF Bull
Run. While the Union army was
marching to meet the Confederates In
their camps on Manassas plains, small
force was sent ahead on the direct ROAD
to mislead the enemy while the main
body made detour to strike the HANK
The First Massachusetts belonged to the
brigade in advance and was pushed up

the Confederates had outposts Win
strong reserves on the western bank.
The first man killed was Lieut.. w. Il.
Smith. of Company G, and the manner
of his death illustrates the way the isnt
was carried on at that stage. Inc Mas
sacbusetts men were clothed In their
militia gray, and at distance were not
distinqnishable from the enemy. There
were other Union regiments in the same

At Glendale, Va, June 80, the sixth
Of the Seven Days, the regiment fought
with its brigade, and was orougnt IN,
near the close OF the action, TO stem the
the Confederate advance. A division OF
the Fifth corps (McCall's) had advanced
upon the enemy too bodily and lost the
game, and Hooker's troops were ordered
in TO its support. Some confusion In the
different organizations resulted. and the
First mistook some Confederate regi-
ments for Federals, and advanced within
fatal range Of their muskets before the
error was noticed. The killed ana
wounded numbered 80. The killed ana
mortally wounded number 20, among
them Mai, Charles p. Chandler.
The action at Glendale closed the first
year OF service Of the regiment. It's
losses thus far were about 800 killed and
wounded. The killed and died OF
wounds numbered 60. yet 1t had not
been in single battle OF great magni-

1 man killed.
