The loss in the regiment in this action, including the Twenty-ninth men, was, killed, twenty-seven; wounded, seventy; missing,[14] ten; total, one hundred and seven.

[14] Courtland A. Allen, of Company D, who was among the missing, was wounded in the hand, and in going to the rear, as he supposed, was captured. He was in several rebel prisons, and was in Andersonville while Sherman was on his "March to the Sea." While being removed from Andersonville, he with five or six others jumped from the railroad train and escaped to the swamps, where they remained for several weeks subsisting on roots and berries, and were on the verge of starvation, when they found a dug-out, and made their way down the Altamaha river to the blockading squadron, and were taken on board one of the vessels about six weeks after their escape.
