The Saga of Old Ned the Civil War Cavalry Horse
The bones of Old Ned, famed Civil War cavalry horse, were sent to the Wistar Institute in Philadelphia for study and display. He served under both Confederate and Union flags and died at forty three. His keeper, Sergeant B F P Crawford of Erie County Pa, earned a captaincy after gallant action and met Ned during the fighting near Early. Crawford witnessed Ned aiding the Union line, then a desperate moment seeing rebel riders fall, and Ned made a determined dash to the bridge before dying in combat.
