A STORY OF THE CIVIL WAR A Daring Raid by MceNeill's Partisan Rangers Along the Potomacin the Winter of 1865, CPhiladelphia Times: Probably the most brilliant and audacious exploit during the civil war was the capture of Major Generals Crook and Kelley by MeNeill's Partisan rangers during the winter of 1865, . John B. Fay, now editor of a news. paper in Oakland, Gault county, Md., had been in the war for four years. He had served with distinction under Ashby, and had been in the Partisan rangers of MeNell sinee their organization in 1862, He had been the trusted confidant of the old captain in many a raid and scout. He united in a remarkable degree cool- ness with desperate courage. It was not long befere the jingling of lis spurs could be heard as he aseended to his room. He was warmly greeted by its inmates After some commonplace conversation McNeill turned to kay and said: “We have been holding a kind of council of war. You remember last year when you returned from a secret trip to Maryland, wanting pa (referring to old Captain McNoill) to make a raid into Cumber- land I{”‘;I the purpose of capturing Gen- € ) Yes," replied Fay, “I think, Jesse, it can be done yet.” , “That's just what I want to_know. I believe I'li try it. By gum! I'll have to do somethi Old "Early scems dete mined togive some one else the command of the company. 'I'he Yanks rid us of Harry Gilmor, but Early ain't satisfied fu-!, &nd I reckon he'll "send another of his pets to take charge ot us before long. It we could only capture Crook and Kel- ley, who are both in Cumberland now," so Kuykendall, a scout, says, ‘‘we'd not be intorfered with any more.” “Fay, can't you go down there and find out what can be done and let me know at once?'’ H “Cortainly T can,” was the response. “Well,”” confinued McNeill, a grim smile enlivening Ins sullen ' features, “while you are gone L'll get the men ready and have the horses rough shod for sharp business. How many men do you think we ought to tuke?"” “‘About twenty-five, well mounted, of the right sort, will be enough,’’ replied Fay, calmly. OFF FOR THE CAPTURE. That night found them treading their way through mary a devious path, by muny a by-road, over icy mountain and floundering through snow drirts, with their eyes fixod on the North star. Lying low in'snug quarters the next day, to es- capo scouting parties of federals when night fell, again they took up their peril- ous journey. ‘They orossed the rugged Knobly mountains by a bridle path and without meeting a single soul on their way. By 10 o'clock they reached the right bank of the main branch of the Po- tomao, five miles above or west of Cum- berland. On the ()1|Pu.~4im shore wasa cabin of an old Irish friend, an employe of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Many times before he had sheltered Fay and other confederate sc for with all the enthusiasm of his race he was deyoted to the southern canse. They crossed the river u short distance_below the picket postof the cnemy at Brady's mills, and soon they were throwing their half dozen limbs by the bright fire of their jolly = Irish friend. His name was Scranton and he was full of information. He told where the gen- orals were umm)in%' and how the camps were situated, and he promised that when Fay and Haller came back with the company he would nscertain where the different posts were stationed and also any changes which might be made in the interval. _After & long and intercsting rsation and getting something to i their faithful Hiber- nianf riend, they returned to their horses, which they had concealed under the river bank, and_ again before daybreak they forded the icy Potomac, Shivering with cold, they eagerly pressed their steeds southward until they reached the house of Vance Herriott, a famous ren- dezvous of confederate soldiers, not far from Romn in_ Hampshire county. From this point Fay sent his boy com rade on a fresh horse in post-haste to “DeAR JESSE: [ have been across the Potomae and find all O. K. Mest me here Monday evening. Haller will give the other particulars. The attempt, if car- ricd out, will certainly prove success- ul. J.B. K" Promptly at the appointed time Me- Neill appeared at Vance Herriott’s and with him sixty-five men, all well mounted and ready for anything, He apologized for the number; “but not only volunteers from his own command had insisted upon coming, nlsomany of Rosser’s brigade on furlough, finding some movemont was on foot, left their comfortable homes, prompted by love of adventure and anx- ious to meot the foe. At Herriott's the horses were well fed and they did not get another feed for more than twenty-four hours afterwards; and many of the men took their rations, not to be renewed for twenty-four hours, But the delay here not very long. Men and horses were alike impatient. The keon, frosty air made the latter very restive and as few of the band knew what wus the object of the expedition they were anxious to know the denouement., Forward was the word. They crossed Middle Ridge, then rapidly in dead silence they marched through the fields skirting Patterson’s creek until tl reached the road leading to the moun! beyond. At midnight they were scaling tho steop sides of Knobly mountains, be- ing obliged to dismount and lead their horses through snowdrifts of unknown depth. The snow was much drifted in some places, but was covered with a thick crust thut would sometimes bear the weight of a_horse. There was many & fall, both of horses and men, and some great floundering in the snow, and not a few cross words whispered, but all obsta- cles were overcome and a little after 1 o'clock the Partisans came in sight of the historic Potomae. It was a clear, erisp night, without moonlight, but tho stars twinkled brightly through the frosty air. The riuer was frozen hard near shore, but the rapid ourrent in the middle kept a great part of the stream unfottered by ice. As they paused near the edge strange tinkling noises could be heard fip and down the stroam amidst the murmur of the waters. Such sounds they had often heard in gay skating parties on Jjust such quiet nights in the joyous days of peace. The command stopped about twenty minutes or a little more at the house Mr. Samuel B—. Here the last counefl of war was held and the men were informed of the task they had be- fore them. hile the men stayed around the barn, Licuténant MoNeill, John kay, Joseph Kuykendall (a favorite scout of Ganeral Karly's), Sergeant Joe Vandiver, John Cunningham, Bob Lobb and one or two others went into the old gentleman’s bouse. DVISED AGAINST GOING. The old man gave them & warm wel- come and warwer drinks. “What are you ragged ruflians up to, anyhow?:" he exclaimed, with twinkling oyes. He was told. “‘Mighty risky, boys; might risky; but you know your own business.” MeNeill sat down by the fire and was very thoughttul: After about five miu- B \TLY BEE: SATURDAY, utes he ranised his eyes and remarked- “Boys, this is a_heavy rosponsibility on me. If we get into a'trap or a slagghter pen the blame will all be on me. T fear it is too near morning. Hadn't we better capture the pickets at Brady's mills and then go back? A atter proposition old man B eas very emphatic in disapproval, “I don't care, aid_he, ‘“if you catch all the generals in the Yankee army some- where else than here, but you musn't touch those pickets, They have treated me all right and I won't have it. It's too near me. 1 would be suspected and they would burn me out.”’ ‘ay insisted upon it that his plans were verfect. There was no doubt of success, t was too late to go back. All agreed with him MeNeill jumped up. Al right, then; come on?’ he eried; *'we'll make a spoon or spoil a hoin.” Ten minutes later the command was fording the cold waters of the river. They rode immediately to George Sceran ton's little sentry house on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. He had procured all the information necessary and had even ascertained late the evening previous the exact location of the pickets, guards and relie A tew words told all, From Scranton’s the party proceeded rapidly down the Cressaptown road to- ward Cumberland. The first picket post was near a_water station on the Balti- more & Ohio railroad. It was at thoe mouth of a ravine, where the road upon which they were moving, and which up to this point ran along the base of a mountain and ‘]ml'nllll,l with the river, turned to the left and ascending the ra- vine crossed the mountain by the old turnpike leading intotbe city, ~ MeNeill, Kuykendall, Vandiyer and” Fay rode a short distance ahead advance guard, Ap In answer to the chall mes there?" they replied Pennsylvania ry from New creek.’ ismount one, come forward and give the countersign* promptiy and correctly replied the picket. nstantly and rather imprudently fcNeill spurred his horse and dasned forward, und as he passod fired his pistol neariy in the sentry’s face. Immediately the rest of the men followed, The frightened picket was secured before he could use his carbine. Two of his com- rades who were lying under a littlo shelter by a smoldering fire near the mouth of the ravine upon hearing the shot, jumped and ran. They werd pur- sued some distance before they were caught. They belonged to Company D, Third Ohio cavalry. GETTING THE COUNTERSIGN. From them was extorted the watch- word or _count for the night. 1t was “Bull's Gap.’' The next picket post was situated at the junction of the coun- try road and the old turnpike, about a mile from Cumberland. The pickets there were comfortably quartered under a rudely constructed shed and were reposing apparently by s cheerful fire. When they heard the rangers coming one of them got up very deliberately and, taking a musket lean- ing against the shed, moved out from the light of the fire and shouted: ‘““Who comes there?” Fay and Kuykendall, who were a few miles ahead of the com- pany, answered promptly: ‘‘Friends, with ' the countersign,” and then they halted. “Dismount one and come forward and give the countersign,” demanded the picket. To those unacquainted with picket duty it may as well be explained that even when friends approach a picket post at night and are halted only one must ap- proach the picket post and give the coun- tersign in & low voice. When Fay and Kenkendall halted, the rest of the band came up and all commenced slo: advance. In order to deceive the picket and prevent his firing one of the rangers spoke out with assumed indignation: “Don’t crowd up, men; wait until some one gets off and gives tl ountersign.’” The sentinel heard something like *“*Bull’s Gap.” There scemed to be a controyersy as to who should dismount I.uf' 0 the countersign and as he stood in doubt he was suddenly covered by the muzzles of a dozen revolvers and carbines. The next moment the post wassurrounded and all the five pickets captured without firing a shot. Good progress had now been made and the Partisans were safoly in the federal lines without exciting an alarm. One picket post had been evaaed at Brady’'s Mills and two had been cap- tured. THE SLEEPIN CITY. The city of Cumberland, situated in a basin, surrounded by high hills and mountains, lay in slumber beneath them. In a wide circle all around it gleamed the camp-fires of & numerous host, some 10,000 of their enemies. But there was not a heurt faltered in that determined band of only sixty-five men. Here in- strictions were given for tho last time and different parties assigned to their re- spoctive duties, after which, 10 a slow, deliberate march, the command quietly entered the city. It was then about 3:30 o’clock in themorning. They rode down Green street, crossed the Chain bndFu over Will’s creek, which separates the western from the eastern part of the city, then turned into Baltimore strect, the principal thoroughfare of the place, and marched in assumed carelessness up the street, Cumberland was under martial law and notwithstanding the unseason- ablo hour, & good many Foderal soldiers, ‘i‘um‘di and others werd on the streets. ‘0 questions asked the confederates re- liod they were a scouting party sent out rom Now Creck and oraered to report to Cumberland. Stale jokes were cracked by the ‘Johnny Rebs" with the soldiers at the corners. Some of the boys whistled !mtriuth' Union airs and others hummed ‘Rally 'Round the Flag, Boys,' as they passed along, Many of the company had on blue over-coats; those who had not put their gum blankets around them, and thus their appearance did not excite the slightest suspicion. THE PLAN OF ACTION. It had been arranged that one party, composed of Kuykendall, Sprigg Lynn, Michals and others, should capture Gen' eral K , while Sergeant Vandive Jake Gassman, Tucker and Jim Dailey were to secure General Crook. The latter gentleman was stopping at a hotel of Which Jim Daileys father was the pro- vrietor and his sister was then engaged tobe married to the gallant general. John Fay was to cut the telegraph lines. When the rangers arrived opposite the St. Nicholas hotel Sprigg Lynn leaped from his horse and by & quick and dex- terous movement captured the sentinel in front of the housa. This man said Geoneral Kelley was at tho Barnum house, just above. The men detailed for the purpose then entered the hotel and coy- ered the guards with their pistots, Sprigg Lynn rushed up stairs to where he was informed General Kelley's room was. In the room he first entered he found Major Thayer Melvin, who told him the general was'in the first room. Into it he rushed; though there was no light in it ho found th? general's bed, and springing to the sideof it excluimed: “G.neral Kelley, you are my prisoner! Just then the rest of the party entered with lights, and the general, stupefied by b thus sud- denly awakenea, slowly raised up in his bed.” Ha' lookod around him, tho light foll on gleaming pistols and the stérn features of the “boys in gray.” Hecould hardly believe his own eyes. An instant's reflection showed he was completely at their meroy, and he surrendered. Hur- riedly, but not roughly, the Partisans as- sisted him to dress, buttoning his heavy overcoat nurclulll\‘ around him, for he shivered in the cold air which came poir- ing in the open doors. He said scarcely # word s he was rapidly escorted dowh stairs, THE OTHER. CA PFURE. Mcesnwhile - similar scene was being onacted at the Revere House. The ')nrly under charge of Vandiver captured the guard in front of that hotel without firing a shot. Entering the hotel they found the officer in ch of a little colored boy. He was érdered to show them the room occupied by General Crook. The trembling negro obeyed and the squad ente the, room, Vandiver iv‘ front Vaadiver was' a very tall, fine looking man, and was elegantly d d in a fine new uniform, Crook aroused, attempted to get out of betl, greatly startled by thi sudden npp:\riflwn of armed men. ‘‘Sur- rendor, General Crook!” said Vandiver, calmly. am Gene Rosser. We haye surprised the town and the garrison, who are now nry vprisoners."’ e gen- eral was_completely dumbfounded, He not in a conditien to deny Vandiver's statement; indced, he, at the time, be- lieved it to be'trus, as Vandive ance corresponded with the des of General Rosser which he had So he sarrendered as gracefully as pos: sibte nnd ovon affected an nir of gayety whien he did not feel. ‘It is the fortune of war,” he said, as he made his hasty toilot. CUTTING THE WIRES. While these things werc transpiving at the two hotels Johu Fay had_gone up to the telegraph office, near the railroad The sleepy operator was aroused, more thoroughly aroused than he ever had been in his life. In ‘utter bewilderment he beheld his captor smash the telegraph instruments and cut the wirces. Then Fay went with a party and captured the headquarters and other flags. —In less than fifteen minutes all these things had been accomplished and the men engaged in them had all Yegained the main body. The company then marched back down Baltimore street to the Chain bridge,near which several fine horses, including Gen- eral Kelley's famous war horse Phillinpi, were taken from the government stables, “I reckon we are about through now, whispered McNeill to Fay, ““let us get out out of this.” Turning then to the left down Canal street, they gained the low path of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal and silently wended their way southeastward between the canal and the river. The prisoners were warned of the consequence if there was any noise, as the command passed the ontermost federal pickets. What was said neither captors nor captured have chosen to tell, but, as events proved, 1t had a most impressive and “‘soothing’ offact upon the prisoners, The lust fed- eral pickets were at the eanal bridge, a mile or two from the city. The Purtisans were going at a rapid gait, where they were halted here, but there was no time for parley. The countersign, ‘“‘Bull’s Gap,” was given without the usual for- malities, and the rangers spurred past. The federal pickets were hastily informed that the body of eavalry passing them was Crook's nudf guard, (0 in one sense they were) that the confoderates were re- vorted advancing and_they were goin, to meet them, but would have them bacl in the hills presently. The explanation of haste um\ur the circumstances seemed satisfact The federal pickets bid them “‘God speed,” and a few minutes later, with all the prisoners secure, hav- ing crossed the Potomac, the exultant band of raiders were riding at full speed through the hills of Virginia. ““THERF. WAS MOUNTING IN HOT HASTE.” A half anhour later Cumberland was in a ferment of exeitement. Colonel James C. Lynn, with two or three hun- dred cavalry, tobk up the pursuitdirectly in the rear of the confederates, but after riding thirty miles without success he gave it up. |, MeNeill made no haltin fampshire ‘coupty. He pressed on, much of the_ time at a_gallop, to reach his mountain retreat in the county of Hardy. The two captured generals pre- served a dignified composure. General Kellay scarcely said n word, but General Crook, ordiparily the most reticent of men, conversed. quite freely with his guards. He said in two hours from the time ho was taken he had expected to start for Winchoster to rejoin the army under Sheridan;.that he would not have minded it if he had been captured on his way, but that he was c\m'sswclf annoyed at being caught in bed. On reaching ~ the Mooreteld valley the Partisans came in sight of 250 men of the Ringgold battalion of Pennsylvania on tllu oynoxim ide of the south branch of the'Pofomac. They bad_been sent from New Creek to intercept MeN As the river at this season was not fordable for several miles a most exciting race oc- curred, both commands being in full sight of each other. Each party urged their horses to the uttermost to reach oorofield first—the federals to cut off cNeill’s retreat, and MeNeill anxious o reach the same place in advance of his foe and exhibit the fruits of his expedi- tion to the numerous friends of the com- mand in Moorefield. The captured flags were waved defiantly by the confederates in hopes this would deluy the foderals by inciting them to try and cross the river before reaching th only place that was fordable. But the Ringgold battalion were not foolod. They pushed slowly forward. S miles were thus traveled, when MoNeill perceived the fresher horses of tho federals would win the race. Then, at the very moment when in the federal ranks on the west side of the river the seemed high hopes of the apture of their generals, to the infinite astonish- ment of the pursuers: Down sank the d!nu:fwmlnfi band, Each warrior vanished, * * For McNeill suddenly turned into the woods, slipped behind one of the toot hills at the base of the Shenandoah moun- tains and taking a secret path through the ridges reached a point seven m southeast of Moorefield, and encamped safety for the night. He had ridden sixty miles without drawing reins or feeding horses or men (except what the latter kaml up as they rode along) and per- ormed one of the most remarkable feats in the history of arms, without losing a man or a horse. Four hundred cavalry sent by Sheridan from inchester reached Moorefield that night, passing over the secrot path MeNeill had travorsed, but they were too late. hey might as well have looked for a needle in a hay-stack as to search for McNeill's rangers in their mountain fastnesses. Every effort to make the generals and other prisoners comfortable was made that night, bat, as can be well imagined, the best was cold comfort, The next day the two major generals, one the com- mander of the military sub-division of West Virginia, the other commanderof the Kighth corps, was sent to Staunton, where they wers warmly greeted by old friends in the southern army, some ot whom were eompades ot General Crook at West Point. They were soon ex changed, in time for General Crook to be the foremost man at Appomattox court house. v o -— Angostura; Bitters were propared Dr. J.
