Poor Fitz John Porter! Poor History! The tale went; all hands were willing. XVII STUART S USELESS CAVALRY RAIDS THE RAIDS OF FORREST THE UNION RAID I FERRY, SEPTEMBER 14-15, 1 862 FORREST THE UNION RAID FROM HARPER^S ANOTHER misfortune befell the Confederate army a few days later. It was "Stuart s ride around McClellan, " also heralded as a great "Rebel success. " It certainly did frighten the Pennsylvania farmers of whom my own folks were a part for the safety of Nell and Dobbin. However, Stua...rt merely wore out his cavalry horses and had to re mount his men on Pennsylvania farm-horses to es cape which broke down and went to pieces, as his reports show as soon as McClellan s great move ment began at the end of October. This very expedition paved the way for our own cavalry s triumphant advance, and made Stuart s resistance useless. The "glory, " which Stuart so loved, gave him the added theatrical eclat to "do it again" next year, when "he rode around" Meade so far that he lost Lee entirely, and so destroyed Lee s sole oppor tunity for a successful invasion or of winning the Battle of Gettysburg.
