- The Battle of Good's Farm was a short skirmish between the Confederates and the Union in Jackson's Valley Campaign in the American Civil War. After a short fight, Confederate cavalryman Turner Ashby was killed. As Stonewall Jackson's army withdrew from the pressure of Maj. Gen. John C. Frémont's superior forces, moving from Harrisonburg toward Port Republic, Colonel Turner Ashby commanded the rear guard. On June 6, 1862, near Harrisonburg, the 1st New Jersey Cavalry attacked Ashby's position at Good's Farm. Although Ashby defeated the cavalry attack, a subsequent infantry engagement resulted in his horse being shot and Ashby charging ahead on foot. Within a few steps, he was shot through the heart, killing him instantly. (The origin of the fatal shot has been lost to history. Soldiers of the 13th Pennsylvania Reserve Infantry, the "Bucktails", claimed credit, but some accounts blame friendly fire.) His last words were "Forward my brave men!" He had been nominated for promotion to brigadier general just ten days before his death. (en)
- La bataille de Good's Farm est une brève escarmouche entre les confédérés et les fédéraux lors de la campagne de la vallée de la Shenandoah pendant la guerre de Sécession. Après un bref combat, le commandant confédéré Turner Ashby est tué. Alors que l'armée de Stonewall Jackson se retire sous la pression des forces supérieures du major général John C. Frémont, se déplaçant d'Harrisonburg vers Port Republic, le colonel Turner Ashby commande l'arrière-garde. Le 6 juin 1862, près d'Harrisonburg, le 1st New Jersey Cavalry attaque la position d'Ashby à Good's Farm. Bien qu'Ashby repousse l'attaque de cavalerie, un combat d'infanterie survient ensuite : son cheval est abattu et Ashby charge à pied. Après quelques pas, il est touché au cœur, et meurt instantanément. L'origine du tir fatal a été perdue. Les soldats du 13th Pennsylvania Reserve Infantry, les « Bucktails », en réclament le crédit, mais des quelques récits font part d'un tir fratricide. Ses derniers mots sont « En avant mes braves ! ». Il avait été proposé à la nomination de brigadier général juste dix jours auparavant. (fr)
