The First Maryland Regiment

Summary

While members of the First Maryland Regiment who were taken prisoner at Front Royal, were being escorted up the main street in Winchester, they passed General Jackson as he was being serenaded at the Taylor House. The walking prisoners loudly took up singing the Star-Spangled Banner, drowning out "The Bonny Blue Flag" being played to Jackson.
