Company M, 9th New York Heavy Artillery

Company M, 9th New York Heavy Artillery


Recruited from Cayuga And Wayne Counties
Principally recruited at Batavia, Bergen, Bethany, Alexander, Darien and Oakfield

Company M came into the Ninth as the eleventh company, though not at the eleventh hour. It is very likely that all the men in the regiment knowing to the circumstances regretted the misfortune which deprived the 22d Independent Battery of the part they had hoped to play in the service, but neither the men in the company nor those in the regiment were responsible for the situation, and all speedily became the best of friends. Since the homes of the majority of those in Company M are considerably further west than Wayne and Cayuga, the "boys" do not get to the reunions as their comrades wish, and regrets are always expressed over the necessary separation.

There are names on the roll of the company that are very dear to all the survivors, and every one who wore the insignia of corps and regiment is pleased that so good a company was sent to march with them in their journeys over Virginia.

Still, the wound inflicted when the battery notion was abandoned was deep and rankled long. The following lines written by one of the company, the final stanza of sixteen recounting the rise and progress of the body, present fairly well the sentiments of the boys:

"We belong to this regiment, Ninth bandbox 'tis called,

Our letter is M, and by that we are told;

Though we wear not the figures, Number 22,

We'll fight just as well for the red, white and blue."
