Invasion of Maryland

“The invasion of Maryland- General Kilpatrick repulsing the Confederate Stuart at Boonsborough, July 8th, 1863. The Civil War showed many affairs quite confusing old ideas. We had colonels commanding fleets and marines serving ashore, mounted infantry and dismounted cavalry. On the 8th of July, 1863, General Kilpatrick, who was endeavoring to cut off the Confederate trains from Gettysburg, was attacked by Stuart, and both these fine cavalry officers fought with their men dismounted, Kilpatrick repulsing his antagonist and subsequently capturing a large number of prisoners and wagons."— Frank Leslie, 1896
