TWENTY-SECOND KEGIMENT.

By ADJUTANT GRAHAM DAVES.

The Twenty-second Regiment of North Carolina Troops
was organized in camp near Raleigh in July, 1861, by the
election of the following Field Officers:

J. Jounston Perrierew, Colonel, of Tyrrell County, then
a resident of Charleston, S. C. Colonel Pettigrew had seen
service with the forces in South Carolina, and commanded a
regiment at the siege and capture of Fort Sumter by the
Confederates in April, 1861.

Joun O. Lone, Lieutenant-Colonel, of Randolph County,
a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West
Point.

Tuomas 8. Gattoway, Jr., Major, of Rockingham Coun-
ty, a graduate of the Virginia Military Institute at Lexing-
ton, Va.

The commissions of the Field Officers all bore date of 11
July, 1861. ,

The regiment was composed, originally, of twelve compa-
nies, but two of them, C and D, were very soon transferred to
other commands, and the lettering, A, B, E, F, G, H, I, K, L,
and M, for the ten companies, was retained. This fact is
mentioned because the lettering of the companies of this regi-
ment as reported in the Register published by the Adjutant-
General of the State in November, 1861, and in the roster of
the troops published by the State in 1882, is incorrectly
given.

The several companies at the time of their first enlistment,
and before their organization into a regiment, adopted local
names, which, as part of their history, it may be of interest

to preserve:
Company A, of Caldwell County, Captain W. F. Jones,
