Reddish and Daniel S. Keeley, the latter of whom was promoted to the rank of major; in the 97th regiment by company K, led by Captain B. F. Slaten, and company H, by Captain Mortimer B. Scott; in the 124th by part of company C, led by Lieutenant Terry; in the 12th cavalry by part of com- pany B, beside large numbers scattered through various com- mands, some of whom were found in other States. From the enrollment of 1S62 I find that Jersey county had 1, 984 men lia- ble to military duty, of whi...ch number 73S were then actually in the service. I may, in this connection, remark that every de- mand was met and every quota filled to the close of the war, notwithstanding the situation of the county on the border of the State, and the frequent presence on her soil of armed bands of guerrillas, horse-thieves and robbers. In looking back over the situation in those troublous times, we wonder that on the whole so few lives were sacrificed in the conflict of the angry and dis- cordant elements. It speaks well tor the conservative influence of the sober, thoughtful people of the county, that the peace of •domestic life was so well preserved.
