evening, April 27, 1862. ----- "I presume Mrs. Porterfield and
Both [should be spelled Booth] and friends are nearly crazy with their loss. I
truly sympathize with them and hope no more of my boys will have to be
sacrificed upon the alter of liberty. But God himself only knows what is in
store for us. Some of my boys are very sick. I have two quite sick. Corporals
Dougherty and Clindinst; each with camp fever. I hope they will get along. My
boys had rather die fighting the enemy than to died with disease****We are
expecting another bout with the enemy again soon, but I do not think it
probable that we in our broken condition will be in advance. There are now many
Regiments in our advance. The pickets are having frequent bouts with the
enemy's pickets.*****
N. B. -- We were ordered to go out Sunday morning and from
upon the dotted line touching the old field. We formed and marched down the
Corinth road to the bridge. Co. B. was then ordered out as skirmishers and I
deployed as far as double dotted line. Before getting my men fairly deployed
the enemy were in rouse we were ordered to fall back this side of creek points
G. B. and O. (G. B., George Booth was killed) from this position we, Co. B.
engaged them and the Reg. marked 77th O. fell back and formed at that point and
son engaged them. Co. B. fought every inch of the ground, from new line to
gully, without any running, let people say what they will, and too under a
galling fire of shot, shell, grape and musketry before getting up to the gully.
Many of my boys were wounded on this very ground. Wendlan and Davis, I think of
now. A battery of 4 guns answered the enemy's fire and we were ordered to form
in head of gully and sustain the battery which we did. Our 40 rounds were
expended and we got more and we have not run yet. The enemy crossed the creek
three times and was repulsed each time. The flag bearer was killed at F. They
then broke and their left wing filed up the new road, giving us a fire which
compelled us to retire to a line represented thus '''''. their regt. wing filed
up the ravine and flanked our left, compelled us again to retire it being now
past eleven oclock; having engaged the enemy from 6 A. M. and at the time our
relative position to the enemy was this: [diagram of map shows the REBELS on the east, west, &
south. The 77th OVI in the middle facing south - sketch of the map not shown
here in this database] The small line the fragment of the 77th Reg. Again we
fell back some distance and supported Batterys the balance of the day. Thus
ended our Sunday fight. When receiving the order N. B. the enemy was already
formed as shown nearly a mile this side with Battery within 300 yards of our
tents. I was on picket the night before and some of Sunday. 2. P. M. saw heavy
force of cavalry scouring the woods from our right to left. My boys were fired
on about 12 Saturday noon. We at 2 A. M. Saturday morning plainly heard the
enemy beating their drums on the road to Corinth all of which was duly reported
and no notice taken of it, it being considered an absurdity that we would be
attacked by the rebels, but you may be assured that the men of my company had
but little sleep that night. Nevertheless as a body the Union troops were
surprised. We fought well, but as of yet, have not received the credit due us.
Some body has murder on their hands. But the outright cold blooded thing is to
come yet within the facts and plans of Tuesdays fight is made out." [End
of letter in book]

Shot through the head
ADDENDA - MURPHY, William
(Fairfield Twp.) This name was
very hard to do research on in trying to determine WHERE he died. According to
Williams' History of Wash. Co., Ohio, he enlisted in 1861 as a Private, and was
with the 6th Kentucky Cavalry, died 1863, shot through the head. According to the information provided by the
National Park Service, Civil War Soldiers & Sailors System, there were 2
William Murphy's that was in 2 different 6th Kentucky Calvaries. One was Union, the other Confederate. When doing a search on him in the American
Civil War Database, the only William Murphy that inlisted in 1861, and killed
in 1863 gives this info: William Murphy:
Enlistment Date July 27, 1861;
Side Served: Union; Service
Record: Promoted to Full Corporal (Acting Color Corporal). Enlisted as a
Corporal on July 27, 1861. Enlisted in
Co. I, 5th Infantry Reg. Kentucky on Sept. 9, 1861. Killed on Nov. 25, 1863 in Missionary Ridge,
TN. There were no William Murphy's in
6th Kentucky Cavalry on the Confederate side that was killed in the Civil War.
This same William Murphy is buried Section C, Site 1153 at the Chattanooga
National Cem. in Chattanooga, TN. The
date of death and rank matches the one in the Civil War Database, but is listed
as "Infantry" not Cavalry. (Dept. of Veterans Affairs National
Cemetery Administration) I am not sure
that this is the same one from Fairfield Twp., but this is the closest match to
the William Murphy from Wash. Co., Ohio that I could find.

gully, without any running, let people say what they will, and too under a
galling fire of shot, shell, grape and musketry before getting up to the gully.
Many of my boys were wounded on this very ground. Wendlan and Davis, I think of
now. A battery of 4 guns answered the enemy's fire and we were ordered to form
in head of gully and sustain the battery which we did. Our 40 rounds were
expended and we got more and we have not run yet. The enemy crossed the creek
three times and was repulsed each time. The flag bearer was killed at F. They
then broke and their left wing filed up the new road, giving us a fire which
compelled us to retire to a line represented thus '''''. their regt. wing filed
up the ravine and flanked our left, compelled us again to retire it being now

fell back some distance and supported Batterys the balance of the day. Thus
ended our Sunday fight. When receiving the order N. B. the enemy was already
formed as shown nearly a mile this side with Battery within 300 yards of our
tents. I was on picket the night before and some of Sunday. 2. P. M. saw heavy
force of cavalry scouring the woods from our right to left. My boys were fired
on about 12 Saturday noon. We at 2 A. M. Saturday morning plainly heard the
enemy beating their drums on the road to Corinth all of which was duly reported
and no notice taken of it, it being considered an absurdity that we would be
attacked by the rebels, but you may be assured that the men of my company had
but little sleep that night. Nevertheless as a body the Union troops were
surprised. We fought well, but as of yet, have not received the credit due us.
Some body has murder on their hands. But the outright cold blooded thing is to
come yet within the facts and plans of Tuesdays fight is made out." [End

Mary E. Mason, 1911 (pg. 237) Letter & map from Cap. Mason to Mrs. Mason,
dated Shiloh, Sunday evening, April 27, 1862. ----- "I presume
Mrs. Porterfield and Both [should be spelled Booth] and friends are nearly
crazy with their loss. I truly sympathize with them and hope no more of my boys
will have to be sacrificed upon the alter of liberty. But God himself only
knows what is in store for us. Some of my boys are very sick. I have two quite
sick. Corporals Dougherty and Clindinst; each with camp fever. I hope they will
get along. My boys had rather die fighting the enemy than to died with
disease****We are expecting another bout with the enemy again soon, but I do
not think it probable that we in our broken condition will be in advance. There
are now many Regiments in our advance. The pickets are having frequent bouts
with the enemy's pickets.*****
N. B. -- We were ordered to go out Sunday morning and from
upon the dotted line touching the old field. We formed and marched down the
Corinth road to the bridge. Co. B. was then ordered out as skirmishers and I
deployed as far as double dotted line. Before getting my men fairly deployed
the enemy were in rouse we were ordered to fall back this side of creek points
G. B. and O. (G. B., George Booth was killed) from this position we, Co. B.
engaged them and the Reg. marked 77th O. fell back and formed at that point and
son engaged them. Co. B. fought every inch of the ground, from new line to
gully, without any running, let people say what they will, and too under a
galling fire of shot, shell, grape and musketry before getting up to the gully.
Many of my boys were wounded on this very ground. Wendlan and Davis, I think of
now. A battery of 4 guns answered the enemy's fire and we were ordered to form
in head of gully and sustain the battery which we did. Our 40 rounds were
expended and we got more and we have not run yet. The enemy crossed the creek
three times and was repulsed each time. The flag bearer was killed at F. They
then broke and their left wing filed up the new road, giving us a fire which
compelled us to retire to a line represented thus '''''. their regt. wing filed
up the ravine and flanked our left, compelled us again to retire it being now
past eleven oclock; having engaged the enemy from 6 A. M. and at the time our
relative position to the enemy was this: [diagram of map shows the REBELS on the east, west, &
south. The 77th OVI in the middle facing south - sketch of the map not shown
here in this database] The small line the fragment of the 77th Reg. Again we
fell back some distance and supported Batterys the balance of the day. Thus
ended our Sunday fight. When receiving the order N. B. the enemy was already
formed as shown nearly a mile this side with Battery within 300 yards of our
tents. I was on picket the night before and some of Sunday. 2. P. M. saw heavy
force of cavalry scouring the woods from our right to left. My boys were fired
on about 12 Saturday noon. We at 2 A. M. Saturday morning plainly heard the enemy
beating their drums on the road to Corinth all of which was duly reported and
no notice taken of it, it being considered an absurdity that we would be
attacked by the rebels, but you may be assured that the men of my company had
but little sleep that night. Nevertheless as a body the Union troops were
surprised. We fought well, but as of yet, have not received the credit due us.
Some body has murder on their hands. But the outright cold blooded thing is to
come yet within the facts and plans of Tuesdays fight is made out." [End

CAUSE OF DEATH/NOTES:
ADDENDA - SCOTT, Howard
(Ludlow Twp.) Williams History
states that at the age of 16 yrs. he enlisted on Feb. 6, 1864 as a Private in
77th regiment, Co. G, served seven mos., died Sept. 1, 1864.
According to the
Civil War Database there are 2 Howard SCOTT's enlisted as a Private on Feb. 16,
1864 at 18 yrs. old.
#1. Also states
that on Jan. 17, 1865 he was transfered from company G to company E. Died Co.
E, 77th Infantry Regiment Ohio on Sept. 1, 1864 in Tyler, TX. Was a POW.
Service Record: Absent.
#2. Also states
that he was a POW on April 25, 1864 at Mark's Mills, AR. Transfered on Jan. 17,
1865 from Co. G to E Battn. This one
does not state anything about his death.
He is also
listed on the scioto.org website in Co. E 77th OVI (contributed by Carl Eash),
gives this info: Scott Howard, Private
enlisted at 18 yrs. on Feb. 16, 1864 for 3 years. He
NOTE.....The transfer could have been in the process BEFORE
word reached his commander that he had died.
I wonder if anyone that transcribed this information from the 'orginial'
copy that is included in the 4 databases above ever caught this error?? The only possible answer to this is a
possiblilty that the War Dept. didn't get word on his death until after the
transfer. I question this because of the
time span from Sept. 1, '64 to Jan. 17, '65. (Almost 4 1/2 mos.) They must have known he was a POW...Why would they
do a transfer?
