the Federals retired without a combat. A
short while after this Colonel Cieburne was
made a Br!gadier General.
THE regiment went to Corinth. Miss.
with General Albert Sidney Johnston in the
spring Of 1862. and took part in the battle OF
Shiloh. April and {. where they lost
heavily. particularly in officers"
Cleburne's brigade attained great dis
tinction at Shiloh. and he was commended
for valor and ability. He was in command
Of the Second Brigade. Third Army Corps.
Army of the Mississippi At the battle OF
Richmond. KY. August so, 1862. while COM
manding two brigades. Preston Smiths and
his own. he received severe wound. losing
most OF his upper teeth. At the battle OF
Perryville. October s. he was again severely
wounded in the left foot. He was promoted
TO Major General on December 13 1862. and
given command of a division composed OF
the brigades OF S. A. NJ. Wood. Polk. Lid
dell and b. r. Johnson. with the batteries
of Calvert. Semple and Douglas.
General Cleburne recommended the enlist
ment of negroes In the army Of the Confed-
eracy. He was strenuous In this contention.
After Iincoln's emancipation proclama tion
General Cleburne presented a memorial on
the subject to President Davis, signed by
himself and a number of other officers. This
memorial is a strong and logical document.
After reviewing the situation. especially as
related TO the enlistment OF certain of the
negroes In the Union army. he said:
I'VE can see three great causes operating
TO destroy US.
First. the inferiority of our armies to
those Of the enemy in point of numbers.
Second. the poverty of cur single source
of supply in comparison with his several
sources.
Third. the fact that slavery from being
one OF our chief sources Of strength at the
commencement Of the war. has now become.
in a military point Of view, one Of our chief
sources of weakness.
THE enemy already opposes us at every
point with superior numbers and is endeav-
oring TO make the preponderance frresisti-
BILE. Every soldier in our army al
ready knows and feels our numerical infe-
riority to the enemy. Want of men in the
field has prevented him from reaping the
fruits of his victories. Our single
source Of supply is that portion Of our white
men fit for duty and not now in the ranks.
The enemy has three sources OF supply;

tory OF Arkansas, Fay Hampstead says:
''The Fifteenth Arkansas Infantry was or
ganized at Mound City, Tenn, six miles
above Memphis. on the Mississippi River.
May H. 1861, and Patrick Il. Cleburne was
elected Colonel. He had before that time
been Captain of a company which went
from Helena to Little Rock in February,
1861 to assist in the capture of the arsenal
Yell Guards. named after Colonel and Gov
erncr Archibald Yell. who fell al the battle
of Buena Vista, in the Mexican War. Gle

pany, but. on a complete. organization. was
elected Captain; Edward II. Cowley, First
lieutenant; James Blackburne. Second
lieutenant: Lucius E. Polk, Third Lieuten-
ant. The company numbered lis men. and
contained in its original membership four
officers who became Geuerals-P. r. Gle
burne and Thomas c. Hindman. Major Gen.
erals: ]. C. Tappan and Lucius E. Polk.
Brigadier Generals. Upon the promotion OF
Captain Cleburne, First Lieutenant Edward
H. Cowley became Captain Of the Yell RI
fes; ]. X. Patton was Lieutenant Colonel
and J. T. Harris Major. Both OF these off,
GERS were killed at the battle OF Shiloh.
and Captain Cowley. who acted as Major
after the fall OF Major Harris was wounded
in the head.
''The regiment soon went to a point on
the Mississippi River. afterwards known as
Fort Pillow, where, under the direction Of
Colonel Cleburne. intrenchments were
thrown up. and the place was named for
Cleburne, but the name was afterwards
changed to Fort Pillow.
"1n July. 1851. the regiment was moved to
Pittman's Ferry. in Randolph County. and
placed under command Of General W. ].
Eardee, who had a force OF about 5000 men
there. From here Hardee advanced into
Missouri, toward Pilot Knob. and went as
far as Greenville. After a stay of q few
weeks at Greenville he returned to Pitt
mans Ferry and from there the regiment
was transferred east OF the Mississippi and
went to Bowling Green, KY, and was
placed under the command Of General Al
bert Sidney Johnston. The regiment, up to
this time. had been called the First Arkan-
sas Volunteers. and 1t became known as the
Fifteenth Arkansas Infantry. During the
winter they went under Colonel Cleburne,
with one piece of artillery and a squadron
OF Terry's Texas Rangers, 100 men in all.
