Civil War
Twenty Fourth Regiment Infantry
Shall I repeat the stereotyped and senseless phrase that we ' have confidence in certain plans that are about to break out and astonish the world?' "
The regiment, then in the 1st brigade, 3d division, 5th. corps, participated in the battle of Hatcher's Rum on the 27th of October, 1864. The division captured a large number of prisoners during the night of the 27th, and on the morning of the 28th the regiment was sent on picket, and covered the retreat of the army back to their old works in front of Petersburg.
