On the evening of May 2, 1863 General Thomas Jonathan"Stonewall" Jackson was wounded by "friendly fire". His troops(2nd Corps) had just "rolled-up" the right flank of the Union Army. Darkness had fallen,but Jackson wanted to complete the job while he had the momentum. He was riding with his staff officers assessing the situation between the lines and as they were returning to the Confederate lines the jittery soldiers mistook them to be Union cavalry. Jackson did not die directly from his wounds,he contracted pneumonia while trying to recover from his wounding. He died in a private residence near Guinea's Station,Virginia on Sunday, May 10, 1863.
