Notes for JOEL M. BOATWRIGHT:
Served in CSA, 1st Regiment, Arkansas Mounted Rifles.
A regiment forms:
In early morning of June 4, 1861, Sixty-five men from Yell County gathered at Dardanelle, Arkansas to join with T. J. Daniels. Each man furnished his own horse, some with their own weapons. When all were assembled, they rode to Russellville, where they joined the marching regiment at noon and marched with them toward Fort Smith.
Citizens with secession sentiments had turned out to cheer on the men. A grocery store owner threw open his doors and said, “Come ye that thirst, come to the fountain and drink without money and without price.”
They march about ten miles from Russellville and camped for the night on the North bank of the Arkansas River. They marched 18 miles the next day over land that was, “rough, poor and rocky and was as tiresome to me as to the teams drawing our baggage and provisions.” They camped that night hear the bridge over the Arkansas River just east of Clarksville.
The next day, June 6, the Regiment was marched to the courthouse, where for two hours, they were made to listen to an “old fourth of July harangue” by a local politician, “which would have been a shame to the name of Clarksville had it not been for that the fair sex came to his relief with their pleasing smiles and songs…we departed in peace and fond remembrance….”
The Regiment camped that night 4 miles from Ozark and moved on early the next morning. On Saturday night, June 8, the Regiment camped 14 miles east of Van Buren, on Little Fog Creek. The next day the Regiment marched through Fort Smith to five miles west of Mazard Prairie, but no wagons with supply or provision had arrived. So many of the men went into Fort Smith on Sunday.
In his diary, Jeff Jobe wrote, “Today would have been Sunday had I been at home but in Fort Smith it was not so. The citizens of this place regard Sunday as other days and do business accordingly. Some stores were closed but other businesses such as drinking, gambling, fighting, etc., went on much as usual. This place is not as bad as I had been informed it was, but God knows it is bad enough.”
Monday the 10th broke with the sun glittering over the prairie. Those who imbibed too freely the day before awoke to the cheering of the men about to be formally enlisted into the Regiment. Before noon all the men were marched out on the prairie, and by company, formed a line on horseback. They then dismounted and each one’s horse was valued. They were then sworn into service of the Confederate State.
The sixty-six men from Yell County enlisted for 12 months dating from June 9. T. J. Daniels was elected by the men to be captain. The unit was known as Captain Daniels’ Company, Churchill’s Regiment. I. T. Brown was elected Lieutenant, H. C. Dawson, Second Lieutenant, and M. A. J. Bonville, Third Lieutenant. J. C. Banks was elected First Sergeant, G. J. A. Jacoway, Second Sergeant, G. T. Holmes, Third Sergeant, Jacob Cowger, Fourth Sergeant, with B. B. Banks as First Corporal, Bostic Dawson, Second Corporal and R. W. C. Akin, Third Corporal.
The camp of instruction began immediately with drilling and marching both mounted and dismounted. They drilled from 8 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon. Within days they would show-off in dress parades. Many men had brought their shotguns from home. Those without weapons were offered flint muskets. All wanted better guns.
Some men went hunting after drill and some would go into Ft. Smith to take advantage of the…opportunities to sin. A few would come back to camp so drunk they fell off their horses and had to be carried to their tents. Some brought bottles from town and hid them in the weeds and grass. It was great sport trying to find the stashes.
At night the men talked of their dreams of future glory, and fear the war would be over before they had the chance to show their fighting qualities. Little did they know what waited for them. From the original 65 men the unit would see service from 118. Of that number, only seven would be present at the final company roll call on May 2, 1865, at Jamestown, NC.
Boats continually ran up the Arkansas River bringing supplies until the river got so low that, “catfish have to employ the turtles to tow them over the sand bars.” Of all the supplies, the regular issue of cavalry saddles, swords and rifles never arrived. The only choice was between their own shotguns and the issue of old “flintlock steel muskets.”
Talk was that the Regiment was to go to Missouri. The Company was divided over the supply question. Many did not want to go without the proper cavalry equipment. The issue was much discussed and debated in every company. As a result of the conflict, every company in the Regiment voted on going or staying. On June 20, they voted to go.
By the 27th many men had gone to town to purchase on credit items need for the trip to Missouri. They would pay when they drew their bounty pay for clothes, etc. Friday, June 28 was spent preparing for the march. By 10 a.m. the next day, they were on the march to Van Buren through Ft. Smith. They made 21 mile the first day. They turned north the next day and marched 19 miles. They were only about 2 miles from the Indian Nation across the State line in Oklahoma territory. It was rough going, especially for the wagons. By the night of July 4, they were about 25 miles south of Neosho, Missouri, which they thought held 2,000 federal troops. All expected their first fight the next day. They marched the last 16 miles to Neosho in six hours.
As the Regiment approached Neosho, Col. Churchill took six companies and went up right hand road, while Lt. Col Matlock took four companies and went up the left. As they approached the town, they saw Union men running to the courthouse. Matlock rode his men with flags waiving to within 40 yard of the courthouse, which was the Federal headquarters. Dr. Armstrong was sent to demand the Federals surrender. Displaying a white flag, he approached the courthouse door where he demanded the surrender of the Federal troops, and gave them 10 minutes to decide.
Churchill arrived and 375 Union soldiers and 500 arms were captured. A diarist wrote of the event and commented, “The ladies of Neosho deserve for their kind hospitality bestowed indiscriminately upon officers and privates upon this occasion the highest praise from this Regiment.”
The next morning the Regiment moved out at 5:00 a.m., by forced march toward Carthage, where they camped 3 miles south. There was nothing to eat, so some of the men shot a “fine beef.” About midnight, 1,400 of their hoses stampeded. The only damage was one horse killed. The next day, they marched back to Neosho because the Union forces had left for Springfield.
Their wagons and provisions caught up to them in Neosho, which included several captured wagonloads. Leaving early the next morning, it was soon discovered that several men were left in town. An armed 20-man detail returned to Neosho to persuade the enjoyers of the hospitality to return to the fast marching regiment.
When they camped that night, they found they had no provisions for the horses. Their campsite was along a creek beside which was a beautiful oat field that solved the horses’ problem.
They broke camp and marched for about 7 hours to a good site where they would camp and drill for several days. On July 15, the camp was moved a few miles near Bentonville, Arkansas, where again the drilled for 10 day until they moved to Keitsville, Missouri, where they remained.
The men drew more coffee than money, so it became the median for exchange. It was traded for whiskey, chickens and eggs, and most anything else a man might need or want.
