REFLECTING ON ONE HUNDRED

Sesquicentennial of the American A Dirty, Ragged Set Contributed by Don Silvius Edgewood Manor, Bunker Hill, WV. Situated on the Valley Pike (Route 11), General Jackson located his headquarters on the lawn of this home in October 1862.

O

ctober 1862 found Confederate General T.J. “Stonewall” Jackson encamped near Bunker Hill in southern Berkeley County. Since mid-August, two major battles had been fought and endless marching without adequate shoes had been endured. A mere ghost of the Confederate army had retreated across the Potomac into Virginia.

Letters from the soldiers to loved ones mentioned rags clotted in blood wrapped around swollen feet. Their diet had consisted of green corn and apples. One Georgia lieutenant stated, “We are a dirty, ragged set.”

As the army recuperated, shoes, pants and coats trickled in, but not nearly enough. Amazingly, despite the deplorable conditions, morale was maintained. The Manassas and Sharpsburg campaigns had pushed

34 O CTO B ER 2012

them to their physical limits, but their resiliency had sustained them.

There was a general impression that no advance by the enemy was contemplated. They were, after all, commanded by General George B. McClellan; never known for being swift of movement.

The camp at Bunker Hill was called “Camp Baylor” after fallen commander Col. William Baylor. On October 7, General Lee discussed strategy with Jackson here; they spoke of Pennsylvania and Maryland.

On October 11, Jackson was promoted to lieutenant general. The former VMI professor had come a long way. Once laughed at but now loved and revered by his men, he was a legend.

Of the time spent at Bunker Hill, General Elisha Franklin Paxton stated that the previous weeks were quiet and stagnant. He had not been in a saddle for two weeks, nor had he been more than half a mile from camp.

AND FIFTY YEARS PAST

Commemoration Civil War The original Baltimore and Ohio Railroad roundhouse at Martinsburg (seen here in an 1857 photo) was burned by the men of Confederate General Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson on October 19, 1862.

Berkeley County Historical Society photo

Confederate General Elisha Franklin Paxton Wikipedia photo

Yet he states that he was so busy with general change of orders and correspondence, the time had passed quickly. Paxton was of the inclination that campaigning was over until spring.

He was also of the opinion that the army was now in a splendid condition.

The past weeks had increased the ranks enormously. On September 22, Lee reported 41,520 men present. Stragglers returned, and eight days later, the count was 62,713. Ten days later, 78,204 and by the end of October the men numbered more than 80,000.

Paxton pondered an enemy crossing of the Potomac to offer battle. Of this he said “we shall, I think, have another great battle near this place, and I feel sure that it will be a splendid victory for us.”

On October 19, Jackson went to www. va l leyrev ue . co m

Martinsburg and returned to the business of destroying the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. From diary entries, this is the most likely date of the burning of the roundhouse at Martinsburg.

The army would leave Bunker Hill October 25 and headquarters was moved to Charles Town. Through the next month, the armies moved southward and McClellan was removed from command and replaced by Ambrose Burnside, who proved no better.

The armies collided again in early December at Fredericksburg, and this time the Federal Army suffered a great loss. Fighting continued for more than two years, but for now, the Shenandoah Valley was spared from more of the devastation and hardship of war.

erkeley Springs, a fountainhead of warm mineral waters frequented

by Native Americans long before Europeans arrived in the New World, are at the heart of a mountain spa community in West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle. First noted as Medicine Springs in 1747 on a map drawn by Thomas Jefferson’s father, the waters for many centuries have drawn visitors seeking health and relief from the stress of everyday life.

In 1776, George Washington’s family and friends drew up a plat of 134 lots, named the streets, and incorporated The Town of Bath, invoking the muses of the renowned English spa. Yet the magic of the springs prevailed, and the town and surrounding area are known by their name – Berkeley Springs.

The waters flow at a constant 74°F from the base of Warm Springs Ridge. You may still drink freely and fill your jugs at Lord Fairfax’s public tap, and wade in the ancient stone pools in the nation’s smallest state park. The town has endured cycles of notoriety, fashion, war and modern progress, but remains the Country’s First Spa, a quiet, friendly haven surrounded by West Virginia’s splendid outdoors. ß OCTOBER EVENTS October 6 & 7 Apple Butter Festival October 21-22 Berkeley Springs Studio Tour For more events, click on Calendar at www.berkeleysprings.com
