- May 24, 1861, Union troops entered Alexandria, Virginia. During the occupation, Colonel Elmer E. Ellsworth, commander of the 11th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment—the "Fire Zouaves"—was killed while taking down a large Confederate flag from the roof of the Marshall House Inn. The flag, visible from the White House, had reportedly angered President Lincoln. As Ellsworth descended the stairs with the flag, the inn’s proprietor, James W. Jackson, shot and killed him. Jackson was immediately shot and killed in turn by Corporal Francis Brownell, one of Ellsworth’s men.
