Rutherford B. Hayes
William McKinley
Hayes.
Transferred to the Army of the Potomac under George McClellan, Cox’s Kanawha Division led the attack at Fox’s Gap at South Mountain on September 14, 1862, where Hayes was again wounded leading the 23rd. Hayes was subsequently promoted to brigade commander in the Kanawha Division. His next action was to pursue John Hunt Morgan in his July, 1863 cavalry raid in Ohio, engaging him shortly before his capture at Buffington’s Island.
