souvenir. Having some of bis own
horses stolen, by way or retaliation
Jenkins demanded pay of the authori-
ties, and it was promptly banded over
in Confederate money.
There lad been Confederate raids
across tlio border before, even ns far as
Chambersburg, hut Jenkins' coolness
lad an ominous look. Lincoln called
for 150,000 militia to defend the cities
of the north, and it soon transpired
that the raiders had good backing. The
game day a division of Ewell’s infan
try crossed the PoromdC'af Williams^'
port, and there was fighting In the
Bhenandoah valley, near the Potomac
with the rest of Ewell's corps.
Ewell marched his corps from the
Rappahannock, following the route
west of the Blue Itldgo to keep Its
movement from the eyes of the Coder-
als. At- the same time Eongstreei's^
corps slowly advanced east of the Blue’
Ridge to control the gaps leading
through it, and guard Ewell from sur

While Stuart, acting as a foil for
Lougstreet, kept the Federal cavalry
at arm's length.
When Hooker discovert J that Lee's j
troops were shifting camp and drawing :
awuy from Fredericksburg, he sent b!-»..n
own cavalry
.. toward Washington to
guard his rear and cover the capital.
Thus While■ Bttmrt marched along Bul l
■Run mountains Fleasontou was tied
fast by his orders to the lino just east
of the mountains'. But cavalry 1* never
literally Idle, and some Federal scouts
riding pest Aldle gup on the 17th took
a notion of seeing what lay the other
side of the mountain. Fit* Lee's Con
federate brigade happened to have the
same curiosity on the other side of the
barrier nt the sitntf time. A fight was
opened almost on the run between the
Harris Light envalry of Kilpatrick's
brigade and the Fifth Virginia under
Colonel T. L Rosser. On nearing the
town of Aldle, which lies in’front of
the gap on the east. Kilpatrick saw the
jpray troopers in Lbe clistnuce and st*nt
the" Harris Light on a gallop through
the town to seise the low ridge over
which the road runs, close to the gap.
Hosier's line charged with drawn so-
bers, driving the Harris Light back to
“ the ttmt;' Itosser then -posted sharp--
•hooters along the main road behind
y?rpp haystacks protected by rail barri-
cades. These sharpshooters cUmg to
tba haystacks, fam ring u terrible fire
upon Kllnntrick's »SM<?tons as_they
rode past on the tlnnk to attack the
obstrueGons. The troopers ijuickiy diS-
mounted and sealed the rail piles and
with drawn sabers overpowered 1I10
Virginians.
The light around llic haystacks was
one of the exciting Incidents .Of the
duy at Aldie gap. In one of the earlier
charges the Fourth New York envalry
faltered. Its leader, Colonel ill Ces-
nola, was under arrest nt the time, hut
seeing his men hesitate lie rode to the
front und without a weapon to tb-feinl
himself led on against the barriencle.
This charge was also in vain, but Kil-
patrick saw the gaMnnt act of Hi Ccs-
nola and on his return said to him.

own sword, he added, "Wear this In
honor of the day.” Later In tire day Dl
Cesnola led his regiment In ft dash
against a stone wall barrier, which was j
the Confederate stronghold In the pa.a.s
to the gap. This charge was met by
the Second Virginia cavalry, which at-
tacked the New Yorkers In the tlank
while they were ha filed nt the stone
wall. Dl Cesnolu wits desperately
wounded and taken prisoner.
.Meanwhile Fleasontou hnd sent Colo
net Dnflic, with the First Rhode Island
cavalry, to reach the gaps on another
road, which took him to the town ot
Middleburg. Stuart heard of Duffle's
march and tried to destroy him, toil,
the Rhode Islanders were stubborn and
looked for help from Aldle, not know
lug that the fight was on at that point.
Stuart sent no help to his troopers at
Aldle, and Kilpatrick was also h it lo
his own devices. Late In the day n
~heavy column undet Colonel Rosser
charged eu masse upon Kilpatrick's
right flank. The regiment In advance
recoiled from ltosser’a blow, and the
men In gray threatened to ride down
Itandol's Federal battery. Kilpatrick
ordered the guns double shotted with
canister, and, placing himself at the
head of the First Maine cavalry, wait
-ed-for Rosser to-rlde etoscrt^ tiia
At tlm cry ‘.'Forward!1, the Maine men
