COLONEL E. M. GREGORY, COMMANDING NINETY-FIRST PENNSYLVANIA VOLUNTEERS, SUCCEEDS GENERAL GARRARD.
General Garrard, as commander of the Brigade, was succeeded by Colonel Edward [sic] M. Gregor, of the Ninety-first Pennsylvania Volunteers, a popular and brave officer. Colonel Gregory subsequently became equally noted in the army for his zeal as a Christian worker, often varying the duties of military life by preaching and conducting prayer-meeting services at his own brigade headquarters, and also at company and regimental meetings of the One Hundred and Fifty-Fifth. The Ninety-first Pennsylvania, Colonel Gregory's own regiment, which had been recruited in the famous Moyamensing district of Philadelphia, afforded a fine field for Christian missionary work for Colonel Gregory. The men composing the regiment, although being splendid fighters, were far from being angels, or piously inclined. In this camp Colonel Gregory started a religious revival in the ranks of the One Hundred and Fifty-fifth Regiment, which lasted for several weeks, and won a great many converts to experience religion. It is but proper to credit Companies K and G, of the Regiment, with these pious awakenings and converts.
