Civil War American

THIRTEENTH REGIMENT INFANTRY

Great praise is justly due to this regiment for their unparalleled gallantry, both of officers and men, who are said to have fought like heroes during the day, and when night came and the roll was called, every man was accounted for. ' They were either dead, wounded, or in the ranks. There were no stragglers from that regiment. " The commander of that regiment, Colonel Shoemaker, is highly spoken of, not alone for bravery in leading his men to this gallant charge, but for the judgment and ability he displayed in the management of his men during the entire battle.
