| 説明 | Record of ServicesSeth M. Timberlake joined the Botts Greys, a Volunteer Company from Charles Town, at the beginning of the war in /61. At the 1st battle of Manassas, the company was standing in line with orders to hold their fire when a Yankee on their flank fired and wounded my friendwho at once declared he would kill that Yank-orders or no orders- and blazed away dropping the Yank in his tracks.Like all of the name that I ever knew he was perfectly fearless and soon acquired the name of "The fighting Seargeant" being Orderly Sergt. of our Company which he joined in April 1862 having been transferred from the Infantry. About twenty of the Company made a raid on Fort Royal in /62 and he encountered one of the enemy who put up a game fight. Standing in a yard near the road he refused to surrender. Seth rode up to the fence and they fired six shots at each other, the Yankee being knocked out at the sixth round and Seth's horse, receiving a mortal wound. This was an ideal war horse that he had gotten from me and no one |
