He was Colonel Ashby of the Confederate Rangers, a handsome, daring soldier, and a superb horseman. He and his beautiful white horse, alone on the hilltop, would attract the Union troopers. When capture seemed sure, Ashby would slowly mount and canter leisurely out of sight. When his pursuers reached the spot, Ashby and his white charger would stand out on the crest of a still more distant hill, Only once was Ashby captured. Vaulting into the saddle, he had raced to best the foremost Union trooper, Sergeant Pierson, to the open road. They reached the road crossing to- gether. Ashby fired. The Union trooper did not return the fire and Ashby replaced his weapon. As the two men came together, Ashby drew a large knife and raised it to strike. ‘Pierson reached over, seized Ashby’s wrist. with one hand, while with the other he grasped the partisan leader's long black beard and held him until the other Union troopers reached the spot. The captive was allowed toride his white horse back to the Union lines.
