FIELD OFFICERS AND COMPANY COMMANDERS
Colonels
J. J. A. Alfred Mouton, promoted brigadier general April 16, 1862
"War Record.-The war history of Lafayette parish was highly creditable to the people of the parish. The first body of troops that went from Lafayette consisted of about twenty-five men, who went to St. Martinsville, and joined Capt. Alcibiades DeBlanc's command. The first full company from here bore the name; of the Acadian Guards, and were officered as follows: Alfred Mouton, captain; Wm. Mouton, first lieutenant; Polk Bailey, second lieutenant, and Thelismar Comeaux, third lieutenant. Upon the formation of the Eighteenth Louisiana Regiment, the Acadian Guards became Company I, and Alfred Mouton was promotsd to colonel. The regiment received its baptism of fire at Shiloh, where Gen. Mouton was wounded. He afterward was promoted to brigadier general, and transferred with his brigade to the Trans-Mississippi Department, where it became part of Gen. Dick Taylor's division. Gen. Mouton was afterward killed in the battle of Mansfield."
"Another company, incorporated in the battalion of the Orleans Guards, won great distinction in a memorable charge at the battle of Shiloh. led by First Lieut. Alfred Voorhies--others enlisted in the Eighteenth and Twenty-sixth Louisiana regiments. The former was commanded by Col. Alfred Mouton, who was prornoted to Brigadier General for his bravery at the battle of Shiloh, and who was killed at the battle of Mansfield, won by his superior generalship. The Yellow jackets, Valsin A. Fournet, colonel, and Dupeire's battalion of cavalry, Maj. St. Leon Dupeire commanding, were also organized in the parish."
"But while the antis were thus caressing fondly their dream of vengeance, the vigilants had been on the alert, and had watched their movements closely. On the third of September the vigilants, five hundred strong, sallied out of the town of Lafayette in three columns, under the leadership of Alfred Mouton, a graduate of West Point, he who subsequently died so gloriously on the battle field of Mansfield. They had with them a twenty-four brass pounder and one hundred rounds of ammunition. This little army was composed of detachments from the various companies of the organization, the chiefs having decided that this force was sufficient for the emergency. This gallant little band had sallied out before day, and had received orders to advance with the least possible noise, to avoid detection, as the plan was to take the antis by surprise, On its way it was reinforced by two hundred men from St. Landry, and the whole force now numbered seven hundred men. Owing to unavoidable delays on the road. It was broad daylight when Bayou Queue Tortue was reached, the antis, drawn up in battle array, seemingly ready to withstand the assault of their enemy."
"In March, 1864, Banks entered upon his raid, although the Confederate, Taylor, learned of the proposed raid in February, and advised Kirby Smith thereof. The latter commenced to bring in his detached commands, and when Gen. A. J. Smith came up Red River and Banks up the Teche the Confederate forces were well prepared. The Federals captured Fort De Russy, just below Alexandria, and then proceeded up the valley, Taylor's command falling back gradually. At Mansfield, on April 8, 1864, he resolved to fight, and sent a message to Kirby Smith to that' effect. He posted his 9,000 men one-quarter of a mile from the town and sent the gallant Mouton with the Louisianians forward to begin the attack. The Federals held the steep hill over which ran the public road, and capped it with Nimm's battery, and this battery Mouton sought to capture. He lost many officers in this twenty-five minutes' attack, among them Armand, of the Creole regiment. The Eighteenth Louisiana Infantry pushed forward, led by Polignac and Mouton, and captured the battery. Mouton was killed while trying to save thirty-five Federal prisoners (or, as some would have it, after a flag of truce was hoisted) by one of the men he would have saved, but the surviving officers led the pursuit of the Union troops to Pleasant Hill."
"At Mansfield Gen. Mouton, Cols. Armand, Beard and Walker, Maj. Canfield, Lieut.-Col. Clark, Col. Noble and many other officers fell. The Federal loss at Mansfield and Pleasant Hill was about 2,300 killed and wounded, and the Confederate loss 2,200. The Federals lost 2,500 taken prisoners at Mansfield, 20 guns, colors, small arms and 250 wagons, while at Pleasant Hill the losses were increased. T. J. Williams acted as guide during the movements here against Banks."
