The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and tho
Civil War. Is61-1s65.
1t was the first and most desirable
point of vantage coveted by both the
the Federal and Confederate armies.
In May, 1851, the four Federal advance
columns concentrated at Parkers-
burg, w. Va, Wheeling, w. Va,
Harper's Ferry, W. Va, and at Wash
ington. To retain the advantage,
the Federal government established
block houses along the railroad from
the Monacacy to the Ohio river, be-
sides forts at Winchester, Harper's
Ferry, Cumberland, Piedmont and
New Creek (Keyser). The B. & o.
was the base of operations for the
Federal army for nearly four years
and from which the government could
not take advance line earlier than
November, 1854. The B. g. o. was
the means of communication between
the West and the Army of the Poto-
mac, and was consequently in a con-
tinual state of siege. Harper's Ferry,
the key of the Shenandoah Valley,
first fam ed through the fanatical at
tempt of John Brown, in defying TIN
laws and customs of his country, was
captured or recaptured eight times
in three years. The Government Ar
senal and armories which were locat-
ed there, were destroyed by the gov
eminent to prevent their capture.
One hundred and seyenty-nine bat
ties of greater or less Importance were
fought on or adjacent to the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, not taking into
consideration the innumerable skir-
mishes.
All through trains from st. Louis,
Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago, Col
umbus, Cleveland, Wheeling and
Pittsburg to the East, run via Wash
ington. ct

GUIDE TO VISIT PRESIDENT.
Bill Sewe11 and Wife of Maine to Visit
White House

A dispatch to the New York Sun from
Bangor, Me, says: When President Roose-
Welt was in Bangor on August q last he
met his old guide and hunting companion
in the Maine woods. Bill Sewell Of Ise-
land Falls. and entertained him at luncheon
in the Bangor House Later in the day
Sewell accompanied the President and
party to Ellsworth. where they were en-
tertained at dinner by Senator Hale.
When Sewell left the train at Bangor
on the return that night the President
said:
"Bill. I am going to have you and your
wife down to visit me in Washington some
time"
On Tuesday Sewell received the invita-
ton and is going with his wife to visit at
the White House early in February. They
will be accompanied by Mr.. and Mrs. Fleet
wood Pride Of Island Falls, who are also
friends of the President
"BilT' Sewel1 Is one OF the most ptctur-
esque characters In Maine and Is typical
woodsman. He first accompanied Presi-
dent Roosevelt on his hunting expeditions
when the latter was a mere lad Of eighteen.
The acQuaintanceship thus formed has de-
veloped into lifelong friendship. When
the President lived on his western ranch
several years ago he sent to Maine for
"Bill" Sewell. and his former hunting COM
panion at once responded. He was one OF
the foremen on the ranch.
