NoteAug 14, 1900The Fifteenth's Record
The 15th regiment committee in charge of the dedication of the monument at Antietam will place the names of 118 killed and died from their wounds at Antietam on the bronze tablet. The list is as follows:
Co. F, 11 killed, 5 mortally wounded;
G Co., 9 killed, 8 died from wounds;
I Co., 9 killed, 7 mortally wounded;
C Co., 7 killed and 7 wounded mortally;
H Co., 9 killed and 8 wounded mortally;
D Co., 4 killed and 8 wounded mortally;
K Co., 7 killed and 2 mortally wounded;
E Co., 6 killed, 2 mortally wounded;
B Co., 3 killed, 1 mortally wounded;
the Andrew Sharpshooters, 10 killed and 1 mortally wounded.

The list will be inscribed on the rear tablets, which will be placed on the monument at Antietam.

The Fifteenth regiment, together with the company of sharpshooters attached to the regiment, lost more men killed and mortally wounded at the battle of Antietam than any other regiment of infantry during the entire war for any one single engagement. The Fifth New York is second, with 117; third, Fifteenth New Jersey, with 116, and fourth, Forty-ninth Pennsylvania with 100.

As the list of those of the Andrew Sharpshooters killed and wounded at Antietam is to appear on the bronz tablets which will be placed on the monument, the committee feels that special effort should be made to have some of the survivors present at the dedication Sep. 17. But two of the survivors are known to be living -- Chilon Houghton, a dentist at Danvers, who lives at East Douglas, and David M. Littlefield of ???.

Through these twoi men it is hoped to locate other survivors of the Andrew Sharpshooters. The Sharpshooters were a separate organization, and comprised some of the most expert shots in the country. There were two companies in this state. One of these was attached to the Fifteenth at Antietam, and suffered a terrible loss, losing as many men, lacking one, as the Fifteenth itself in the number killed outright.
