- The Engagement at Bealington, Va.
- Description:
- Caption on postcard reads: "The Engagement at Bealington, Va., July 8, 1861. General McClellan, in command of the Federal Forces at North West Virginia, had about 20,000 available men and had divided them into three detachments. One of these, under General T.A. Morris, was sent towards Beverly and encamped at Bealington, a village at the foot of Laurel Hill, and in close proximity to Garnet's position, whom he had been ordered to engage in a series of feints to distract him from the main Federal attacks directed to the rear of Garnet's forces, which consisted of about 11,000 men, including 3,000 under Colonel Pegram, at Rich Mountain. Skirmishes were kept up, those of the 8th of July being a considerable battle. The troops engaged on the Federal side were the 9th Indiana and the 14th Ohio Regiments. The fierceness of the attacks of the Indiana soldiers caused the Confederates to dub them "Swamp Devils" and also "The Tigers of the Bloody Ninth." This engagement was followed by the battles of Corrick's Ford and Rich Mountain. - From a sketch by H. Love." Published by Barbour Publishing Company. (From postcard collection legacy system.)
