Excerpt from History of the One Hundred and Sixth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, 2d Brigade, 2d Division, 2d Corps: 1861-1865 IN presenting this volume to his comrades, friends, and those of the pub lic who may be sufficiently interested to procure a copy, the writer makes no claims whatever for it as a work of any literary merit; but presents it as a plain statement of facts connected with the history of his Regiment, a Regiment whose services in camp, on the march and in battle entitle it to be classed as one of Pennsylvania's best. Constituting a part of the brigade that bore the name of the city from whence nearly all of its mem bers came, whose reputation was known, and its services recognized throughout the whole Army of the Potomac, The Philadelphia Brigade, officially known as the Second Brigade, Second Division of the Second Army Corps, the fighting Corps of the Army of the Potomac. The facts have been gathered from a diary kept by him throughout his whole term of service and from letters written home to family and friends, describing in full the campaigns, marches and battles. He was always with his Regiment, and accompanied it on all its marches and special duties; but on account of size and age, was a non-combatant, so did not go into the actual fight until Spring of when he was appointed on the stafic of the General commanding the Division; up to that time he accompanied it so far as to watch its manoeuvring and went over each field after the action ceased; so that nearly all the facts-here related came under his personal observation.
