SPRAGUE, JOHN W.; W.; Entered the service April 25th, 1861, for 3
months; mustered out and reenlisted June 17th, 1861,for 3 years; Under the
first call for troops, he raised a company. and reported at Camp Taylor, near Cleveland.
On the 19th of May, 1861, the company was assigned to the Seventh Ohio
Infantry, which was soon ordered to Camp Dennison. On, the 11th of August,
1861, while Captain Sprague was proceeding from Sommerville to Clarksville, under orders,
with an escort of four mounted men, he was captured, when
near Big Birch River, after a sharp chase of about three miles, by a detachment of the
Wise Legion, commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Crogan. Captain Sprague was taken to
Richmond, and was confined about six weeks in a tobacco house. He was then transferred to
Charleston, South Carolina and was confined first in Castle Pinckney and then in the
Charleston jail. On the 1st of January, 1862, he was sent to Columbia, on the 5th
he was taken to Norfolk for exchange, and on the 10th he reached Washington
City. While on his way to join his regiment, which
was still in Virginia, Captain Sprague received from Governor Todd a commission as Colonel
of the Sixty-Third Ohio Infantry. This regiment was at Marietta Ohio, but its organization
was incomplete. This was rapidly completed, and on the 10th of February Colonel
Sprague, moved with his regiment to report to General Sherman in Paducah, Kentucky.
Immediately upon arriving he was ordered to report to General Pope at Commerce, Missouri.
Under that officer Colonel Sprague participated in the operations at New Madrid and Island
Number Ten and then joined the army at Pittsburg Landing. He moved with the army against
Corinth, and subsequently commanded his regiment in the Battle of' Iuka, but was only
slightly engaged. Colonel Sprague was again engaged in the battle of Corinth, October 3rd
and 4th, 1862. On the 4th the regiment was posted on the right of
Battery Robinett, and lost more men, in proportion to its strength, than any other on the
field. Over one-half of the men were killed or wounded, and but three line officers
escaped unharmed. For some time Colonel Sprague was engaged in various operations of minor
importance, In the latter part of' 1863 the regiment reenlisted, of the men present only
seven declined to re-enlist. Colonel Sprague always looked upon this almost unanimous act
of his regiment as equal in importance, and worthy to be placed side by side, with any of'
its deeds on the field of battle. Indeed, no regiment could be more devoted to the country
than was the Sixty-Third. Most of' the men were Democrats, yet when Mr. Vallandigham, as
candidate for Governor, asked for their suffrages, only three men out of the entire
regiment were willing to indorse him. In the latter part of' January, 1864, Colonel
Sprague was assigned, by General Dodge, to the command of a brigade, consisting of the
Forty-Third and Sixty-Third Ohio, the Twenty-Fifth Wisconsin, the Thirty-Fifth New Jersey,
and the Third Michigan Battery. In April the brigade marched from Chattanooga, with the
Army of the Tennessee, under General McPherson, forming a part of the Grand Army under
General Sherman. Colonel Sprague was actively engaged during the entire Atlanta campaign,
and at Resaca, at Dallas, at Nicojack Creek, and at Decatur, on the 22nd of'
July, he was conspicuous for, coolness and bravery. Sprague was covering and guarding the
train of the entire army, consisting of' over four thousand wagons, containing almost all
the supplies for the army. He was attacked by superior numbers, and the contest continued
for more than four hours; but by his own bravery and ability, no less than by the courage
and prompt obedience of his men, the enemy was finally repulsed, and only one wagon was
lost. Colonel Sprague's brigade lost two hundred and ninety-two men killed and wounded.
Colonel Sprague was appointed Brigadier General on the 29th of July, 1864.
After the fall of Atlanta he moved with General Sherman to Savannah, and thence northward
on the campaign of the Carolinas. After the surrender of' the Rebel armies he moved from
Goldsboro, through Raleigh and Richmond, to Washington City, where he participated in the
Grand Review. He was relieved of his command in the army, and was assigned to duty by the
Secretary of War, its Assistant Commissioner for the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen, and
Abandoned Lands, with headquarters in St. Louis, Missouri. The district under his charge
comprised the States of Missouri and Kansas, and, subsequently, the Indian Territory. In
September, 1865, General Sprague's head-quarters were removed to Little Rock, Arkansas,
where he remained until November, when he resigned. In the meantime, he was offered the
Lieutenant-Colonelcy of the Forty-First United States Infantry, which he declined to
accept, and he was also breveted Major-General of Volunteers, to date from the 13th
of March, 1864.
General Sprague is a man of' fine personal appearance,
tall, straight, and well -proportioned. His character as a soldier is unimpeachable, and
his influence with his regiment, and afterward with his brigade, was almost unbounded. No
one who know him as it soldier, failed to esteem and love him. He was always prompt,
efficient, and brave; died Dec. 24th, 1893. (War in Ohio) |

Captain John N. Dyers company, on the 22nd day of April 1861. After his
arrival in camp, he was made orderly-sergeant, in which capacity he developed fine
military talent, such as led his company, at an early time, to look upon him as a proper
person for promotion when a vacancy should occur. Therefore, on the final organization of
the company for the three years service, he was made a first-lieutenant He was with
the regiment during the entire Western Virginia campaign, taking part in the skirmish at
Cross Lanes, in which he took com-wand of the company after the death of Captain Dyer, which
position he held until January, 1862, when he was relieved by an officer promoted to the
captaincy by reason of superiority of rank. He was soon after made captain, February 5,
1862, and assigned to Company E.
He now took part in all the marches and skirmishes in Eastern Virginia, and also in the
battle of Winchester, where he displayed great gallantry. After this battle, he commanded
his company in the pursuit of Jackson to Harrisonburg, and in the toilsome march to
Fredericksburg, and the return to Front Royal. He was now in the advance to Port Republic.
In the battle, which succeeded, he displayed great courage, as well as ability to command.
On the 22nd of February 1863, he resigned, and returned to his home.
