A rare drawing of fighting in the Catoctin Mountains.
 
Foraging soldiers! Probably part of Sherman's boys or Sherman's cats if you like.
Please note that they are attacking the rooster wearing the U.S, coat of arms, and the "Union" doves!
And that bottle of "Bourbon" hanging from his belt is a sure giveaway. They're Rebs! Genuine "Cat Confederates."
