HISTOKY OF THIRTY-SEVENTH INFANTRY
The Thirty-seventh Infantry, known as "Fremont Rifles." was organized by Colonel
Julius White in August, 1861, and was mustered into service September 18th. The Regi-ment rendezvoused at Camp Webb. On the 19th of September it left for St. Louis, TheKegiment numbered: Field and staff, 15; company officers, 30 and 964 enlisted men. It
was composed of ten companies of infantry and two of cavalry. Companies C and F werefrom Lake county, commanded respectively by Captain Eugene B. Payne and Captain
E, B. Messer; Companies A and H, from Rock Island county, commanded respectively byCaptain John A. Jordon and Captain John B. Prick; Companies D and G, from Chicago,
commanded respectively by Captain John W. Laimbeer and Captain Henry N. Frisbie;
Company I, from Boone, commanded by Captain Ransom Kennicott; Company E, fromLaSalle, commanded by Captain P. B. Rust; Company B, from Henry and Stark, com-manded by Captain Charles V, Dickinson, and Company K, from Vermilion, commandedby Captain William P. Black.
Before departure, the Regiment was presented with battle flags by the Board of Tradeof Chicago, and upon reporting to General Fremont, at St. Louis, Mo., was reviewed byhim and his staff in front of his headquarters, upon which occasion ribbons of red, white
and blue were tied to the spear-head of the battle flag of the Regiment by the hands of the
distinguished wife of the General, Mrs. Jesse Benton Freeraont. The Regiment was armed—the eight inside companies with Springfield rifles, and the two flanking companies andall non-commissioned officers with Colt's repeating rifle (seven shooters).
About October 2, the Regiment proceeded to Booneville. Mo., where it went into
camp. About October 10th, Captains Black and Payne embarked their companies onboard the steamer "War Eagle," and proceeded up the Missouri to Arrow Rock, and after
exploring Saline county for the rebel General Claib Jackson, returned. About October 13,
Captain Payne was left in command of the post at Booneville with Companies C and H,and seven companies of Home Guards, and Colonel White proceeded with the other eight
companies, as a part of General Fremont's army, to the capture of Springfield, Mo., thenheld by Price's (rebel) army. The rebels retreating, the Regiment went into camp on the
Lamine river, where it was joined February 7th, 1862, by Captain Payne's command fromBooneville, when the Regiment became a part of the Army of the Frontier, under GeneralsCurtis and Herron. From the Lamine, the Regiment marched by way of Cassville, Mo.,
along the "Wire road," skirmishing all the way with the retreating rebel army, to SugarCreek, in Arkansas, where, on the 6th, 7th and 8th of March, 1862. it participated in the
battle of Pea Ridge, Arkansas, where, although the rebel army outnumbered the Federalarmy two to one, we won a complete and brilliant victory, and saved St. Louis from Price's
grasp. At this battle. Col. Julius White commanded the Brigade, composed of the Thirty-
seventh and Fifty-ninth Illinois, and Davidson's Peoria Battery.
From 10 A. M. of the 7th of March until sundown, this Brigade met and repulsed the
onslaught of 6,000 rebels, undei* Generals McCullough and Mcintosh, both of whom werekilled in front of this Brigade. The night of the 7th, the Regiment slept on its arms, andnext day renewed the fight, and at 11 A. M. a general charge was made, which resulted in
putting Price's army to flight and our taking many prisoners. The rebel army numbered35,000 men, and were completely whipped and forced to retreat south by General Curtis'
Union army of 15,000. For his gallant handling of his heroic Brigade at this battle, Colonel
White was made Brigadier General of Volunteers. At this battle the Thirty-seventh lost,
killed. 21; wounded, 114-total, 135.
THIRTY-SEVENTH INFANTRY. tl
After this battle, the Thirty-seventh Infantry, with the Peoria Battery and Hubbard'sMissouri Cavalry, were stationed at CHSsville, Mo., on outpost duty.
In June. 1862, General White received his commission as General, and departed east to
report for duty. Lieutenant Colonel Barnes was then promoted Colonel; Major John Chas.Black Lieutenant Colonel, and Captain H. N. Prisbie Major.
During the summer of 1862, the report coming in that a large force of rebels and Indianswere at Neosho, Mo., 40 miles distant. Lieutenant Colonel Black, taking all the available
force at the Post, started at sunrise, marched to Neosho, met and defeated the enemy anddrove him into the Indian Territory; returned to Neosho at midnight, and reached Cass-
ville by sundown the next day. with over 300 prisoners and a large number of horses, mulesand wagons captured from the enemy, having marched 100 miles and fought a battle in
two days.
The Thirty-seventh guarded the frontier in southwest Missouri all through the summerof 1862, having frequent fights with roving bands under Coffee and Quantrell, alternating'
between Springfield and Cassville, Mo.
During the summer of 1862, Company F, of Thirty-seventh Illinois, Captain E. B.
Messer commanding, was detailed as a guard of the College Military Prison at Springfield,
Mo., and occupied part of the summer in the construction of a stockade, and otherwisefortifying Springfield.
September 29, 1862, found the Thirty-seventh again on the march after the enemy.October 1, reached Pond Springs, Mo. October 4th, drove the rebels out of Newtonia. Mo.;
thence to Gadfly, thence to Cassville. Mo., thence to old battle-field of Pea Ridge, thence to
Huntsville. Ark., arriving there October 20th. Started on the evening of October 22 for
Bentonville; marched all night. Crossed White river, and camped four miles south of
Cross Hollows October 23d. Reached Osage Springs October 24th. Broke camp on the
evening of October 27th, marched all night, and at daylight surprised the rebels at Fayette-
ville. Ark.; took some prisoners, and returned to Osage Springs October 30th.
Continued marching in light order, chasing rebels from one place to another, until De-
cember 1, 1862, when the Regiment went into camp at Camp Lyon, Mo.
On account of the rapid marching qualities of the Thirty-seventh, and the fact that it
was always on the march in pursuit of the enemy, when not actually engaged in battle withhim, it gained the sobriquet of "The Illinois Greyhounds," by which name it was knownall over Missouri and Arkansas.
December 3. 1862. Colonel Barnes having retired from the service, and LieutenantColonel Black being Colonel, H. N. Frisbie Lieutenant Colonel, and Eugene B. Payne,Captain of Company C, Major, the order came to the Regiment, then at Camp Lyon. Mo.,
to proceed to the relief of General Blunt, then besieged at Sugar Hill, Ark.
Leaving the baggage to follow, the Regiment started for the relief of Blunt, andmarched to Prairie Grove, Ark., in three days, a distance of 112 miles, double-quicking the
last ten miles.
On the morning of December 7, 1862, engaged the enemy at Prairie Grove, Ark., nearIllinois Creek. General Herron commanded the Division at that battle, and Colonel Dye,Twentieth Iowa, commanded the Brigade composed of his own regiment, the Thirty-
seventh Illinois, and one battery. The battle lasted all day, and was one of the most hotly
contested and bloody battles of the war, considering the number engaged.
The Thirty-seventh lost about one-seventh of its number in killed and wounded.
Colonel Black, at this battle, commanded the Regiment with one arm in a sling, shat-
tered at the battle of Pea Ridge, and late in the fight had his other arm shattered by a rifle
ball. Many of the company officers were killed and wounded.
That night General Marmaduke. commander of the rebel army, and under a flag of
truce, approached the outpost, under command of Major Payne, Officer of the Day, andafter being disarmed and blindfolded by that officer, was escorted by him to the head-
quarters of General Herron. Exactly what transpired at this conference is not known,except that the battle was named Prairie Grove. It is surmised, however, that GeneralHerron demanded an unconditional surrender, to which General Marmaduke could not
fully accede. Returning, the rebel leader muffled his artillery wheels, and fled during the
night across the mountains. The Thirty-seventh accompanied General Herron the next
day, and rursued the rebel army over the Boston mountains to Fort Smith, Ark., whereGeneral Marmaduke, with the remnant of his rebel army, crossed the river and escaped.
The Thirty-seventh returned to Prairie Grove, and as a part of General Herrou's
Army of the Frontier, spent the winter and spring of 1862-63 in marching from point to
point, in Missouri and Arkansas, having numerous skirmishes with the enemy, until April
