	James Ewell Brown Stuart - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		JAMES EWELL BROWN STUART (1833-1864), American soldier, was born in Virginia on the 6th of February 1833 and entered West.
		Stuart, now a major-general and commander of the cavalry corps, was present at the second battle of Bull Run, and during the Maryland campaign he brilliantly defended one of the passes of South Mountain (Crampton's Gap), thus enabling Lee to concentrate his disseminated army in time to meet McClellan's attack.
		At Fredericksburg Stuart's cavalry were as usual in the flank of the army, and his horse artillery under Major Pelham rendered valuable service in checking Franklin's attack on "Stonewall" Jackson's corps by diverting a whole infantry division that formed part of Franklin's command.

	James Ewell Brown
		When John Brown's troops were marching on and took possession of the engine house at Harper's Ferry, Stuart was in or near Washington on leave of absence, but he immediately volunteered for the occasion, and accompanied the then Colonel R.E. Lee as his aid to that place.
		It was Stuart who, at great personal risk, carried the summons to surrender to Brown, and after- wards united in the charge the marines under Green made there when battering down the door, and largely contributed to end forever the career of the 'messenger and prophet,' as some at the North delighted to call him.
		His strong figure, his big brown beard, his piercing, laughing blue eye, the drooping hat and fl feather, the 'fighting jacket,' as he termed it, the tall cavalry boots, the high health and exuberant vitality, forming one of the most jubilant and striking figures in the war, which cannot easily be forgotten.
