The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and
the Civil War. IS6I-1S65.

IT was the first and most desira BILE
point Of vantage coveted by both the
Federal and Confederate armies. In
May 1861, the four Federal advance
columns concentrated at Parkersburg,
W. Va, Wheeling, w. Va, Harper's
Ferry, W. Va, and at Washington.
To retain the advantage, the Federal
government established block houses
along the railroad from the Monocacy
to the Ohio river, besides forts at
Winchester, Harper's Ferry, Cumber-
land, Piedmont and New Creek, (Key-
ser.) The B. & o. was the base o.
operations for the Federal army for
nearly four years and from which the
government could not take advance
line earle. than November 1864.
The b. & o. was the means of com
munication between the West and
the Army OF the Potomac, and was
consequently in a continual state of
siege. Harper's Ferry the key to the
Shenandoah Valley, first famed
through the fanatical attempt OF
John Brown, 10 defying the laws and
CuouohS VI lis Couutiy, was Captured
or recaptured eight times in three
years. The Government Arsenal and
armories which were located there,
were destroyed by the government to
prevent their capture. One hundred
and seventy nine battles of greater
Importance were fought on or ada
cent to the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
not taking into consideration the in
Vulnerable skirmishes.

Two important pending projects
are the Coal & Iron and the Coal &

to Harrisonburg, Va, and the other
to run from Elkins, to Chenille,
Gilmer county. A stock subscrip-
tion will soon be voted on by the
Pendleton county citizens, who are
wild for railroad since the county
is isolated without one. The Elkins-
Davis syndicate are back Of the
Coal & Iron as they are of the Coal
u Coke Company, which was charter
ed few days ago with SIS, 900, 900
capitalization. Gilmer county has
rich undeveloped coal territory and
the building OF these roads will con-
nect the Little Kanawha with the
West Virginia Central, which will be
great link in the Wabash trunk
line. The Central at present is a
heavy coal hauler and the branches
will increase the coal tonnage.
