War Fifty Years Ago Recall of Winchester Campaign
The piece recounts the retreat route of Jubal Early's army after the Sept. 10 defeat, with General Merritt leading cavalry and Wright Emory Crook infantry toward Strasburg.

Sheridan suffered around 400 casualties, Early about 1,300, mostly prisoners.
