camped on Wappoo Cut. In few days II
with nine other compan les. formed the 18th
S. G. r. OF Volunteers-three of which compa
MES were from Abbeville-Co.s G, II, and l.

manning companies OF the Regiment were
from Edgef1eld county.

A. ]. Lythgoe, Lieutenant Colonel.
T. p. Shaw, Major.

During the month OF March or the first
days OF April, the regiment was ordered TO
Corinth, Mississippi. There IL was rganized
into the Fourth Brigade, Withers Division.
The command remained At Corinth until
place, there WAS much sickness among the
members OF the company, and many OF them
died.
The companys "baptism of fire" was In
the early days of May, 1852, at the battle OF
Pennington, in which there were no casual
ties from this company.

which place the army went on the long
march In the Kentucky campaign.
The Regiment was at Mnmfordvllle, KY.
when the demand for the surrender OF five
thousand Union troops was made. The sight
OF the we'll dressed Union soldiers, with glis'
tening shoes as they dressed In the open field
In the sunshine, made quite contrast with
our brown shoes and mnd-stained clothes.

arrived In Knoxville In October, 1852, many
Of the company footsore from march OF Blk
