Nobody knows. Jackson was hit several times by shots fired by members of the 18th North Carolina Infantry. It had just gotten dark and the Rebels had been fighting for several hours, driving the Yankees before them from a devastating flank attack. Jackson had ridden his horse out in front of his front line troops, accompanied by a few mounted aides and couriers, to see if more could be done. This was hardly any place for a three-star, lieutenant general to be. Jackson's party soon encountered Yankees in the dark woods and turned back for the Confederate line. Frontline Confederate troops had not been told that Jackson was to their front, and heard the sound of galloping horse hooves striking the macadamized Orange Turnpike, and thought a Yankee cavalry charge was coming at them, and opened fire.
