Default Beppo

Union General Hugh Judson Kilpatrick's horse. At Aldie during the same charge that G. A. Custer (on Harry) cut his way through the Rebel lines, Gen. Kilpatrick joined the charge. Kilpatrick was unhorsed when Beppo was shot out from under him. Beppo was killed and "Kill Cavalry" survived.

Beppo was killed?! Wasn't he one of the Marx Brothers?
