JOHN R. PANCOAST enlisted on December 19, 1861, and mustered into D Co. of the PA 110th Infantry, and mustered out on June 28th, 1865 at Washington, DC. Pancoast was promoted to a Quarter Master Sergeant, 2nd Lieutenant, 1st Lieutenant, Captain and Captain by Brevet. The PA 110th was involved in twenty-five battles, including Gettysburg, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Spotsylvania Court House, Appomattox, Hatcher’s Run, First and Second battles of Deep Bottom, Wilderness, Wapping Heights and Bristoe Campaign. A monument has been erected at Gettysburg to honor the service of the 110th. 4 pp, 8 x 12, Camp Near Waterloo, November 14th, 1862, to his colonel, Pancoast writes to his Colonel with a variety of issues, including guerillas, burying convalescents, exchanging prisoners and sending arms to Harper’s Ferry. “We felt a great deal of uneasiness about you from the time you left us until Burns’ arrival…There are so many rumors of guerillas infesting that section of the country that we feared you were captured. His (Burns) return to us at Orleans by the roundabout…assured us of your safety and showed us the cause of the delay. Lieut. Hopkins joined us here day before yesterday with 84 men out of 96 mustered in (balance in hospitals) & burying some 15 convalescents & this morning we were joined by 18 paroled prisoners exchanged…Our ranks on dress parade present quite a respectable appearance. Hopkins had neither arms nor shelter, tents having been sent for them first to Harper’s Ferry when here under escort over dangerous portions of the road – a nice specimen of red tape truly. We are doing our best to supply their wants. There is quite a lay force of the enemy lying some five miles back from here who sent out a scout once in a while raise quite an excitement in camp. Last night about dusk the whole division was ordered out of camp into the woods for fear of being shelled & spent the night. There leaving their tents unoccupied. “Everything passed off quietly however. The R. Road being opened through to Warrenton – supplies are coming in freely relieving us from a state of semi starvation to which we were reduced two or three days ago…The enemy are said to be heavily massed at Culpepper most probably will dispute our advance somewhere near that point… “We are all very anxious to hear from Harrisburg as an article in the newspaper pointed to the probability of Curtin’s forming new regiments from the drafted men instead of filling up old ones. This would be just like him opening to him a fine field of patronage…” Toning, folds. Everything we sell is guaranteed authentic forever to the original buyer. We also offer a 30-day return policy.
