ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-NINTH REGIMENT — FOURTEENTH
CAVALRY.

August 18, 1862, Lieut. James. M. Schoonmaker, of the 1st Maryland Cavalry,
but a citizen of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was authorized by Secretary of War
Stanton and Gov. Curtin to recruit a battalion of cavalry of five companies.
Recruits came in so rapidly that on the 29th the authority was extended to the
recruiting of a full regiment of twelve companies. The companies were composed
chiefly of men from Allegheny, Armstrong, Butler, Erie, Fayette,Lawrence,
Washington and Warren counties. Companies K and L were principally, and
Company M entirely, composed of Armstrong men, and for that reason, a brief
outline of the history of the regiment is here inserted.

The regiment rendezvoused first at Camp Howe and subsequently at Camp
Montgomery, near Pittsburgh, where, on November 24, organization was effected,
with the following officers: colonel, James M. Schoonmaker; lieutenant
colonel, William Blakeley; majors, Thomas Gibson, Shadrach Foley and John M.
Daily. On the same day, the regiment moved toward Hagerstown, Maryland, and
from thence to Harper’s Ferry, where it remained on picket duty, varied with
an occasional skirmish with the guerrilla bands which infested that region,
until May, 1863, when it was sent to Grafton, on the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad, and attached to the mounted command of Gen. Averill. The service at
this time consisted in holding the towns of Beverly, Phillipi and Webster
against a body of the enemy’s cavalry. The 14th was held at Phillipi, and the
remainder of the command at Webster and Beverly. The force at the latter place
was surrounded by a brigade of the enemy. The 14th marched to their relief,
and after a toilsome march reached the town early in the morning. A short
skirmish took place and the enemy was compelled to withdraw. After this time,
Gen. Averill’s command was engaged on the Upper Potomac during the Gettysburg
campaign; also at the Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs, where the 14th
distinguished itself by repulsing three detemined charges of the enemy. It was
in the Droop Mountain raid and some smaller engagements. At Craig’s creek,
where Gen. Averill and his command seemed doomed to certain capture, he
skillfully eluded the enemy, and no less than seven times in twenty-four hours
the artillery was dragged by hand through the creek, which was deep and filled
with floating ice. In November, 1863, the 14th by the destruction of the
bridge over the Jackson river, was cut off from the main troops, and Gen.
Early sent in a flag of truce demanding its surrender. Although surrounded by
adverse circumstances, the men of the 14th reg. were not the kind to weakly
yield, but setting fire to the train and fording the river, they made their
escape and rejoined the command, which swam the Greenbrier that same night,
crossed the Alleghenies by an old bridle-path, and, finally, after a march of
five days over almost impassable roads, where the men were compelled to walk,
reached Beverly. From this point, the command went to Martinsburg and into
winter quarters. In recognition of the great service which the command had
performed, the War Department gave to each man a new suit of clothes as a gift
from the government, the only instance of the kind during the war. The command
was engaged on picket duty all of that winter, and arduous duty it was, too.
In the spring of 1864, Gen. Averill’s command undertook a movement through
Virginia, which was successfully accomplished after great difficulty. While on
this march, the soldiers of the 14th, on one occasion, were without food for
five days, and many died from hunger. The last portion of the service in which
this regiment was engaged included the battle of Moorefield and those
brilliant engagements under Sheridan, which have made his name famous. April
20, 1865, the regiment went to Washington, D. C., and on June 11, to Fort
Leavenworth, Kansas, where it was consolidated into a battalion of six
companies. The date of the muster out was August 24, 1865, and the companies
returned in a body to Pittsburgh, where they disbanded. During all the
campaigns in which it was engaged, the 159th lost about eighty men killed and
more than 200 wounded, besides many reported missing.
