     The above is a correct roster of the original company, as well as the first non-commissioned officers appointed by the officers, but by the discharge of Sergeant Lloyd and the transfer of Corp. Shrawder to the 14^th United States Regular, other changes soon followed.

John A. Swartz was the first member of the company to desert, which he did on the 25^th of September.  No effort was ever made to compel him to return. 

The company mustered all told, rank and file 88 men.  An effort was made during our stay at Harrisburg to have it recruited up to the maximum number, 101 men, and the following recruits to the company were secured.

 Bastian, Joseph F.

 Hoffer, Peter H.

Marks, Cyrus

Shearer, Jacob

Waughen, Wm. Henry H.

All of the above, excepting Hoffer, deserted, which take with Swartz, Daniel Lahr who also deserted, and Lloyd , discharged with Shrawder transferred, the company reduced to 80 men.

The name of Rev. Hall, who had died from an attack of small-pox and who lied buried in the Even. Lutheran Cemetery in Selinsgrove never had his name on the company roll, as he was endeavoring to secure Chaplaincy.
