| Minute Men. — Word being received at Indianapolis on the evening of
July 8, 1863, that a force of 6,000 cavalry under Morgan had crossed the Ohio river near
Mauckport and was moving on Corydon, a call was issued for citizens to organize for
defense. Within 48 hours 65,000 men had tendered their services. From this number
regiments 102 to 114 inclusive, and one battalion were organized, the battalion being
assigned to the 107th. One Hundred and Fourteenth Indiana Infantry. — This
regiment was organized in Johnson county, July 9, 1863; being composed of six companies of
minute men, aggregating 383 rank and file, with Samuel Lamberton as colonel. The regiment
