its brilliancy. On |

days later the j

and Sa<ldlf:.s” for
Stuart’s romantic
Anny of the Potomac on
the peninsula heralded a new king. These
two typical sona of chivalry—chivalry that
was no myth—were fated rivals at one
stage of the war. Both had taken active
part in that tragic preliminary of the con
flict, the Harper’s Ferry episode of
Stuart as an officer of the United States
army and Ashby aa captain of a company
of volunteer cavalry.
At that time subaequent events in the
livi-a of each were molded. Another vol
untcer cownmuder of Virginia vigilantes
at Harper’s Ferry was Maj. Thomas N.
Jackson (Stonewall), leading a corps of
cadets from the military institute at Lex
Ington. During a campaign of several
weeks, guarding the Potomac river against
further abolition raids, Jackson and Ashby
bei'ame warm friends. Jackson, as a
trained military man, saw in Ashby, the
Mfetldle sportsman of the Blue Bulge hills,
a born soldier wi„b hero blood in his veins.
Gen. Ashby’s grandfather, Capt. Jack
Ashby, was Washington’s lightning met*
srngor lo announce Bruddock’s defeat to
tbe government at Williamsburg, and
Capt. Jack’s son, Col. Turner Ashby, father
of the general, was a soldier of the war of
1812.
Young Turner Ashby won local fame in
the sports and pastimes of his day. He
was a crack hunter, a social hero, and one
of the most graceful ami daring riders in
the tournament which during his young
manhood flourished on Virginian soil. In
the jousts he personated the “knight of
Hiawatha,” and in Indian paint, feathers,
beads and buckskin, suddenly swooi>ed
down the track ou a fiery black stallion,
bareback and without bridle or rein—a
startling, wild and picturesque figure,
bringing vividly to the doors of the peace
ful planters of Virginia the scenes of the
wild west.
After tbs “John Brown war” of 18W
A all by kept up his company of volunteer
cavalry, ami os soon as Virginia sounded
the secession note iu 1H01 took to the saddle
and marched on Harper’s Ferry to seize
the government arsenal. Jackson also
hurried to the spot with a body of state
troops and exercised command.
Such is the lay of the land at IIorper’H
Ferry that the post con only be defended
on the Maryland side by a force ou Mary
land Heights, and Jackson stmt Ashby
with his company to picket those hills.
While on this duty Ashby hod a chance to
serve his cause a turn that an army could
not have excelled. During the first Bull
Bun campaign, while the Union army was
marching from Washington on Manassas,
another Union army under Gen. Patterson
moved down Cumberland valley to the
upper Potomac to threaten the Shenan
demh.
While Jackson and Ashby were at IIar
per’* Ferry, a* above stated, Patterson was
gathering his anny around Chambersburg,
Pa. In order to leani Patterson's strength
and plaas Ashby made a spy trip to bis
camp. Disguised as on humble country
m.vi he passed himself oft as a horse doctor
and completely deceived the Union pickets
and scouts along the route. His informa
tion put the southerners on their guard iu
the Shenandoah, and Patterson’s army was
chockmatM • t every step, a fact that con
tribute*! to the Bull Bun disaster.
Meanwhile Jackson was superseded for
a time by Gen. Joe Johnston as Coufed
orate leader in the valley, and Johnston
called Col. “Job” Stuart to the front an
chief of cavalry in that section. Stuart
was younger than Ashby, but be had been
in the old army with Joe Johnston and
Bol*rt K. Ijee, ami enjoyed their favor.
Ashby was on the point of quitting the
service when Jackson interfered and got
him detached to another field beyond
Stuart's bailiwick. When Johnston made
hi* celebrated march to Bull Bun field
Stuart followed him, and Ashby’s star
arose again. Bull Bun made Jackson
famous os “Stonewall,” and with a major
general’* commission he returned to the
Shenandoah in command of the district,
and Ashby resumed his old place as chief
of cavalry. Ashby hod not been idle in the
Interim, hut os lieutenant colonel of the
Seventh Virginia cavalry hod thrilled the
hearts of his neighbors with numerous ex
ploits. The y^ung men of the region pro
claimed him as the leader of their choice
by flocking to his standard.
AMiuj neiu ms own ana covered j season's
retreat.
Soon after the Kernstown fight Jackson
learned that an army tinder Fremont was
moving on his rear from West Virginia
with the purpose of entrapping him last vveen
two foes—one from the lower and one from
the upper end of the valley. As he was no*
strong enough to cope with both, he re
solved to disappear with part of his troops,
go around Fremont’s column and heat! it
off, then turn against Banks, who was on
the other front. Ashby took the task
of keeping up a clatter iu the old lines

to perfection. Jackson fought
Fremont’s advance at McDowell on May
8, Banks meanwhile actually retreating
before Stoncwall’s shadow, which Ashby
caused to hang over tbe valley.
With Fremont disposed of for a time.
Jackson turned again to Banks. The whole
force marched down the valley toward
Btrosburg where Banks lay behind fortifi
cations, and Ashby pressed the Union out
posts, feigning attack. Then withasudden
dash he appeared mile* away on the Union
left and rear l>etwecn Front lioyal and
Straaburg. His instructions were to cut
the telegraph and railroad ho a* to isolate
Bunks’ army, but in carrying out these
orders he met opposition from several com
panics of infantry guard posted along the
truck. Although his enemy was sheltered
by buildings, fences and the high railroad
embankment, Ashby attacked iu saddle,
and was at first successful. He burned tbe
Buckton railway station, destroyed the
wires and tore up rails, and then turned
upon the guards who hail concentrated
across his pathway to the Union rear.
Hoping to stampede his opponents, Ashby

4 RECKLESS CHARGE AT IICCKTON STATION,
called upon his men to follow and rode
over fences and ditches up the embank
raent, relying upon saber and pistol to cope
with rifle and bayonet. Three times the
charge was repeated, and two of Ashby’s
captains fell by his side; before he gave up
the contest.
The remainder of the campaign, so din
ostrou* to Banks, was iui inglorious one
for Ashby’s cavalry. For some reason the
men, with few exceptions, fought on their
uwii Look and but a handful rallied around
their leader to follow up and harass Banks'
retreating column.
When, in turn, Jackson made his retreat
tip the valley a few days later to anticipate
Fremont’s column that was threatening
the rear, while Gen. Shields pressed the
Confederate front, Ashby made a skillful
defense with the rear guard. One day a
Union battery advanced close enough to
stampede the cavalry and infantry of the
guard with a volley of well aimed shells
This stroke was followed up by a charge
•f Union cavalry, which Ashby repulsed
by personally leading a small ambush
party made up of stragglers that ho vert* 1
in the woke of the column.
In an affair of this kind Ashby ended ids
career at Harrisonburg, J«ne(}. Fremont’s
advance, under (Jen. George D. Bayard
was pressing Ashby’s guard closely, and
the leading detachment was successful!.*
a i a hushed and ita leader, Uoi. Percy Wyml

ilucktails were liehind Wyndhum, and
Vshby laid another ambush for them, and
with two infantry regiments attempted to
-•trike the Union column iu the flank
Kane’s men, however, delivered the llrst
dre. and Ashby, who bravely rode at the
head of his men, was shot down almost in
•ituntly. So it was with him as with his
hieftain, Stonewall, with “Jeb” Stuart
also, and with our own Kearny, and with
the ill starred Bayard himself a few
months later Death came not in the ideal
way of some grand hurricane of battle, but
in a trivial collision that counted for noth
