He was 17 when he enlisted the first time. The company was mustered in to service at Indianapolis on March 24, 1862 with Meredith H. Kidd, a local Wabash man, as Captain. On April 11, 1862, the company went by rail to St. Louis and embarked on a steamer down the Mississippi, up the Ohio, USA to the mouth of the Tennessee River and up the Tennessee to Pittsburgh Landing (Battle of Shiloh), Tennessee arriving April 21, 1862. It was in this operation against the rebels retreating to Corinth that Mitchel King's outfit joined the battle on April 21, 1862. It had been only 30 days since the 14th Indiana, USA Battery had been mustered into service at Indianapolis. The Union troop in this area was known as the Army of West Tennessee and was under the command of General U. S. Grant. During the battle of Corinth, Mitch King came down with measles. He was hauled on a wagon loaded with tents to Jackson. This ride resulted in back injuries which caused disability. A railroad pass was issued to Mitchel H. King at Jackson, Tenn. on August 25, 1862 for passage to Columbus, Kentucky and Cairo, Illinois, USA - FREE. This apparently was his pass on his way home to Indiana, USA, where he was discharged on September 12, 1862. He received a medical discharge for measles and the "bloody flux" (Dysentery). He again enlisted in the same company and was mustered in service again on January 11, 1864, having recovered from his disability, 1 year and 4 months after his discharge. The 14th Indiana, USA Battery was ordered home, arriving at Indianapolis on August 29, 1865 for discharge with 3 officers and 107 men under Captain John W. H. McGuire. Mitchel King's discharge is dated September 1, 1865.
