This was on the 22d of May. He was, perhaps, the first victim of the war in Virginia. And yet the Richmond authorities would not believe the fact that from two-thirds to three-fourths of the population of the counties along the line of the railroad from Grafton to Parkersburg, and north of that road to Wheelin
