also had charge for a short time of
the men in Company K, a Bedford
unit. These troops, too, were tine
soldiers, typical of the kind Penn
sylvania has furnished by thousands.
"1 am sure that every man in the
line Hundred and Twelfth is well
trained and an excellent soldier, and
it was a great pleasure and no sur- |
prise to me to read that they were
successfully engaged in driving back
the Huns. They will certainly be
capable of any task assigned them
and no officer will find a more will
ing organization to 'carry on' in any
drive."
A brief history of the battling
units, of which every heart in Har
risburg is proud, follows:
Originated in Civil War
Companies D and 1 of the Eighth
Kegiment of the old Pennsylvania
Xaliinal Guard, whose members are
now right up on the tiring line, tak
ing part in the hi* nattle being
waged on the fields of Prance, have
had a long and noble career. The
two companies are outgrowths of
the First City Zouaves and City
Grays, the germ of which was laid i
in the spring of 1861 with the for- |
(nation of the Harrisburg Rifles. The j
membership of the two companies I
was made up almost entirely of Har- I
risburg boys.
After a series of metamorphoses. |
the Harrisburg Rifles became the j
Eighth Regiment of the Pennsylva- t
nia National Guard and only ceased
to exist as such when it was mus
tered into the United States service
shortly after the declaration of war j
against Germany.
Company 1 came into existence as
such when the Pennsylvania Na
tional Guard was reorganized at the
close of the Spanish-American War,
being formed from Company H of
the Eleventh Regiment. This lat
ter unit had been formed for home
protection when Company D had
been mustered into the United
States service at the commencement !
of the Spanish-American War.
Formed in the spring of 1861, the ;
Harrisburg Hides soon was known as i

the First City Zouaves. In 1862-63,
; during the Civil War, it served as
I Company A, One .Hundred and Twen
ty-seventh Regiment. In 1863-72 It
again took up the name City Zoui
a\es-. It passed into the City Gravs,
being known as such until 1884,
when it was enrolled as a unit in
the Pennsylvania National Guard,
making up Company D of the Eighth
Regiment. For fourteen years it ex
i i&tec! without a change of name, but
when the Spanish-American War
broke out and the unit was mus
tereu into the service, it was known
as Company I), Eighth Regiment,
United Slates Volunteers. It re
sumed its place in the Pennsylvania
National Guard after peace had been
declared and only ceased to exist 1
las such when it was reorganized as
part of Company D, One Hundred j
ami Twelfth Inftfntry.
The Harrisburg Rifles was organ
ized in the State Library of the old
State Capitol, in pursuance to a call
for recruits, published in Harrisburg
papers on April 15. 1861, shortly
after hostilities broke out between
the North and the South. The or
ganization was completed on May
24, when Deßennevilie Randolph
Keim was elected captain. Calvin
DeWitt and Gordon S. Berry were
made first and second lieutenants.
An incident of historic interest is
found in the fact that members of
this band of volunteers for service
to help preserve the Union signed
the enlistment roll upon the table
used for the signing of the Constltu
| tion of Pennsylvania.
.Name Soon Changed
j The name Harrisburg Rifles stuck
jto the organization only a short
| time. Shortly after the organization
1 had been completed the proposition
was made to change the name of the
organization as the First City Zou
aves of Harrisburg. This was done
and the organization first known as
such on June 10, 1861. The uniform
of the Ellsworth Zouaves, of Chi
cago, who had visited Harrisburg
several days previous, was adopted.
The Zouaves drilled in the corri
dors of the Capitol quite frequently.
In good weather they went through
their formation and drill work on the
pavement in front of the Capitol and
during the sessions of the Legisla
ture many members and attaches of
the different departments drilled
with the organization.
The Zouaves soon became quite
proficient in their worl* and in 1862,
when an invasion of Pennsylvania by
several Confederate divisions was
feared and the War Department is
sued a call for the enlistment of
volunteer militia for three months,
the body volunteered as a unit.
Volunteering on May 26, they were
mustered into the United States
service at 1 o'clock in the afternoon
of the following day. "The threat
ening aspect of affairs was no longer
alarming" the following day and the
War Department's order was rescind- j
ed with the result that the body was
mustered out after serving the
United States less than twenty-fojir
hours. Captain W. B. Lane, a United
States cavalry officer, was in charge
of the muster.
The Zouaves resumed its local or
ganization. When Governor Curtin I
issued his proclamation on July 21, i
1862, calling for the organization of j
volunteer regiments for nine months' ,
terir under President Wilson's call
for 300,000 men. the organization's
service was tendered on the day of'
the issuance of the order, it was J
promptly accepted and mustered j
into the United States service with I
I'". Asbury Awl as captain. John S. I
Bitzer as first lieutenant and John T. I
ISnsminger as second lieutenant. On j
August 16 the Zouaves were at
tached to the One Hundred and
Twenty-seventh Regiment as Com
pany A.
Provided Many Officers
ITecause of its previous drilling,
tlie company was much more pro- i
ticient than others of the regiment
:'nd was detached from it. Special]
ilut;.work was performed in Harris
burg and Washington. After being
mustered out of the service at the
expiration of its term, ninety-five
members of the body re-enlisted in
other commands, with which they
served until the treaty of peace was
signed. Most of them enrolled

commissioned officers. Colonel Wil
liam W. Jennings. well known in
Harrisburg, was colonel of the One
Hundred and Twenty-seventh Regi
ment during the entire nine months
'of service of Company A.
With the War of the Rebellion
finally quelled, the First City Zou
laves was reorganized with Lieuten
ant-Colonel J. Wesley Awl as cap
tain. The unit prospered to such an
extent that its numbers soon made
it quite unwieldy. With 169 men on
the roll, in 186 9 Captain Awl con
ceived the idea of forming a battal
ion. Three companies of forty men
each were organized.
Captain Thomas F. Maloney, made
captain of Company A, was soon in
strumental in having the uniform
changed and the organization was
henceforth known as the City Grays.
AfUr an existence, bright at no time,
tne other two companies soon faded
away. Company C had never been
fully uniformed. So Company _A,
the new City Grays, continued to
live to perpetuate Harrisburg's mili
tary honor. The City Grays were at
tached from 1872 to 1 884 to the
Fifth Division of the National Guard
of Pennsylvania, commanded by
Major-General Thomas j. Jordan, of
Harrisburg. Arms were furnished by
the state, but the organization paid
ail the costs of maintenance.
* Oil Memorial Day in 1872 the or
ganization first made its appearance
In its new uniforms. Temporarily
much feeling was held against the
uniforms, the color of which had
ion.iT been associated with the Con
federate army. The fact, however,
that they were the same as worn by
the West Point cadets helped to re
lieve the situation.
Saw Active Service
As the City Grays, the body saw
active service only once. It was sent
at that time to Williamsport to help
i <iucll the "Sawdust Riots," occurring
among the workers in the saw mills
and lumber yards of that city.
in 1 874 the organization built its
own armory, taking possession of it
on June 28. The building, located
at Second and Forster streets, was
opened with much ceremony, in
cluding a drill, reception, music and
TTARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
refreshments. The First City Zou
aves had drilled in the State Capitol
for a short time, hut this is the first
armory that had been owned by a
Hatrisburß military company.
The Zouaves had had a permanent
armory during the entire existence
as c sinsle company and battalion.
This was located in the Exchange
building on the site of the present
■ Post Office. The last drill in this
armory was ?ield on October 18.
j 1?84. The building was rebuilt and
much enlarged and the first drill
; heir- in this remodeled structure was
I on February IS. 1885. It was
l .ecupied by the two Harrisburg com-
I ,>anies at the time of their muster-
I ing into the United States service.
; The unit performed excellent serv.
j ice in quelling numerous disturb
ance.' throughout Pennsylvania, be
ing called into service numerous
; times, it took a prominent part in
i the work done during the great
j Pennsylvania railroad riots at Home
j steac: and In the great strike of an
| thracite coal miners at Hazleton.
Sinking of the Maine
With conditions with Spain he
doming more strained early in 1898,
j drill of Company D proceeded with
! greater keenness and all inspections
were more thorough. Following the
sinking of the Maine and with the
authorization of the use of the Arnty
and Navy, issued on April 20, 1898.
Company D prepared to be mustered
into the United States service. On
April 28 it left Harrisburg for Mount
Gretna, Lebanon county, determined
on as the place for mobilization of
Pennsylvania troops. Harrisburg
held a great celebration in behalf of
the company.
Captain Joseph B. Hutchison was
in command of Company D. but on
9 he was commissioned a niajor
in tne Kighth Regiment. First Lieu
tenant Ezekiah Laubenstein was
made captain to till the vacancy.
Second Lieutenant Edwin R. Bergs
tresser was made first lieutenant and
Corporal Charles F. Etter was made
second lieutenant. The companv
was mustered into the United Slate's
service on May 12. 1898.
The regiment, however, never left
the United States. After being at
Camp Hastings, Mount Gretna, for
some time, the men went to Camp
i Meade, Middletown. Pa., after which
lilI il was ordered to go to Augusta, Ga.
• When peace was finally declared the
j company was mustered out of the
j service on March 7. 1 899, at Camp
Mackenzie, Ga. A big reception was
j tendered to the men on their re--
turn to Harrisburg. It was • again
j mustered into the National Guard of
i Pennsylvania at the City Grays
Armory on April 25.
When the entire body of Pennsyl
i vania National Guardsmen was mus
j teied into the United States service
i in May, 1898, it became necessary to
j have another body of citizen sol
i dierj. So early in May of that year
1 preparations were made for the for
| mfctipn of a new National Guard
j Provisions were made for the or
ganization of six regiments of twelve
companies each. The numbers given
I the new bodies did not conflict with ,
j those that had been held by the old i
regiments. Many former members
!of the old Pennsylvania N'ational
j Guard enrolled in the new Guard.
To the Eleventh Regiment
Harrisburg's unit in the new or
| ionization.was Company H, attached
jto the Eleventh Regiment. Mem
bers of Company D who for some
; reason had not gone into the United I
! Stateb service and those who were ;
| sent home were given the preference j
| in the formation of the new unit. |
Tl is unit was mustered into the Na- j
tional Guard on July 22. 189 S. Maur- I
I ice E. Finney was elected captain of !
I the new company, with Nicholas
Tack and Harry C. Houtz as first
i and second lieutenants. Company I
ne'er took part in any event until
! the reception on September 7. 1898,
| to Company I, Fourth Pennsylvania
Volunteer Infantry, a Harrisburg
company, on its return from Porto
i Rico.
j When the reorganization of the
National Guard took place after-the
! return of the various commands
! from the United States volunteer
| service in 1899, Company H, Elev
enth Regiment, fvas transferred to
j the Eighth Regiment as Company I.
|As such it replaced Company I,
! Eighth Regiment, of Wrightsville,
| which failed to reorganize after the
muster out. The transfer took place
on June 21, 1899, under orders dated
• April 21. 1899.
! The two companies, D and I, have
I continued to exist in Harrisburg ever
since, taking part in all big occa
sions and in every disturbance of
any consequence. Scores of leading
citizens of the city have been in
cluded on their rosters. They have
conducted their drills in the City
I Grays' Armory, Second and Forster
streets, ever since.
Both companies have been num
bered among the most proficient
units of the Pennsylvania National
.Guard. They were mustered into
the United States service during the
I summer of 1916 during the fracas.
with Mexico. They served along the
Mexican Border for a period and
were among the first companies to
l be mustered out of the service.
| They resumed their local organiza
tions after being mustered out, but
were mustered into the United
States service again after several
months when war was declared on
Germany. They were sent to Camp
Hancock, Ga., for further training.
With the reorganization of the Na
tional Guard, the> wore merged
largely into Companies D and I of
the One Hundred and Twelfth In
fantry. They left for France sev
eral months ago and are now tak
ing a prominent part in the big
Yankee offensive.
The Governor's Troop
The Governor's Troop of the old
Pennsylvania National Guard, many
of whose active members are en
gaged in deadly conflict with the
Hun along the western front In
France, has had an existence of
over thirty years, during which time
it has covered itself with much
glory.
Thirty years ago when Scranton
and Wilkes-Barre were vieing witfi
eaPli other for the privilege of fur
nishing the cavalry troop for the
Third Brigade of the Pennsylvania
National Guard, and when no de
cision could be made. It was decid
ed to organize the troop In Harris
burg.
At the time the troop was organ
ized there were two troops of caval
ry In the Pennsylvania National
Guard. One was the First City
Troop, of Philadelphia, attached to
the First Brigade, and the other was
thi Sheridan Troop, of Tyrone, at
tached to the Second Brigade. The
Third Brigade had no troop, and to
fill this position it was that Scranton
and Wilkes-Barre were contending.
When no final decision could be
reached and after Harrisburg had
had some citizens interest themselves
in the movement for the organiza
tion of a troop here, it was finally
decided to admit tht new troop from
Harrisburg.
Since then the troop has been
known as the Governor's Troop and
had grown to be the crack cavalry
organization of the Pennsylvania Na
tional Guard when it was mustered
into the United States service. The
organization meeting took place on
February 18, 1888, in the City Grays'
Armory.
Officers Klected
On the organization evening, fifty
seven applicants were examined and
passed. Harman A. Perkins was
1 elected captain of the new troop

the organization wa mustered into
the Pennsylvania National Guard by
Brigadier General J. P. S. Gobin. of
the Third Brigade.
The first opportunity to do active
military service came to the com
pany in 1898 when hostilities be
tween the United States and Spain
broke out. The service of the Gov
ernor's Troop, Pennsylvania Volun
teer Cavalry, was creditable to the
organization during this conflict.
The troop reported at Mount
Gretna on April 28, and was mus
tered into the United Stales service
on May 13 as "The Governor's
Troop, Pennsylvania Volunter Cav
alry." It was held there until early
In July when it was ordered to go
to the camp of the Second Army
Corps in Fairfax county, Va. Arriv
ing at Camp Alger, Va., on July 27,
it went .from there to Newport
News, Va., on July 23. Transport
was taken for Porto Rico on August
5. The troop arrived there five days
later and landed on the following
day.
The troop was on the island for
.iusi a little over one month, taking
transport on the Mississippi from
Ponce for New York City on Sep
tember 3. The men were furloughed
at Harrisburg on September 12 to
November 11, when it was mustered
out of the United States service fater
serving almost seven months.
Frederick M. Ott was captain of
the unit during the Spanish-Amer
ican War with John M. Major as
flrst. lieutenant and Edwin A. Nlco
demus as second lieutenant. The
troop was reorganized as the Gov
ernor's Troop of the National Guard
of Pennsylvania on January 31,
1 f>99.
The Second Troon
During Its absence from the Unit
ed states, a second Governor's Troop
had been organized. The organiza
tion meeting took place on July 21.
1598, with Charles P. Meek, captain;
S. Frank Westen, first lieutenant,
and Joseph J. Weaver, second lieu
tenant. On the return from active
service of the original troop, Captain
Ott was re-elected and Captain Meek
made a flrst lieutenant.
The Governor's Troop has had an
existence marked by many endeav
ors that have brought much honor
to it. It took prominent parts in
many public evertts in Pennsylva
nia and other states, and no celebra
tion in Harrisburg was complete
without the presence of the Gov
ernor's Troop. In addition to nu
merous festive events in which it
participated, it took a prominent
pari in quieting numerous disturb-'

nnceß. labor and others, in the state.
In iifle matches, the troop has been
active and has taken numerous
prizes.
Organized in 1888, the troop has
had but five captains. Harman A.
Perkins, the captain at the time of
the organization of the unit, served
from February 18, 1888, to May 8,
1891. Frederick M. Ott served from
June 5, 1891, to May 12, 1910;
Charles P. Meek (Second Governor's
Troop), July 21, 1898, to January 31,
1899 George C. Jack. May 28, 1910,
to 1917; George W. H. Roberts,
1917.
On Mexican Duty
George C. Jack was the captain of
the unit when it was called to go
into the United States service during
the trouble with Mexico in 1916.
He served as the head of the troop,
then known as Troop C, First Penn
sylvania Cavalry, during its eight
months' service there. After the
muster out, Captain Jack was
transferred to the Ordnance Depart
