OTD in 1864, the extremely underrated Battle of Monocacy was fought in Frederick County, Maryland.
Gnl. Lew Wallace slowed Gen. Early just long enough for Gnl. Grant to reinforce the capital which is why Monocacy is called “The Battle that Saved Washington.”
160 years ago today, Mary Surratt, George Atzerodt, Davy Herold and Louis Powell were hanged for their part in JW Booth’s plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln...
The location of the execution site is along the fence line of a tennis court today at Fort McNair in Washington, DC.
Happy 4th! 🇺🇸
