[Answer] 4. What was the name of the horse ridden by Robert E. Lee during the American Civil War, aka the War Between the States?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "4. What was the name of the horse ridden by Robert E. Lee during the American Civil War, aka the War Between the States? "

...1. Rienzi 2. Traveller 3. Cincinnati 4. Virginia Traveller carried General Robert E. Lee through most of the great battles of the American Civil War. Rienzi was General Sherman's mount, and Cincinnati was ridden by General Grant. As far as I know, there was no officer on either side who had a horse named Virginia. Traveller was an even-tempered horse of great stamina, which made him an ideal mount for a general who was usually found in the thick of things at the front. There's only one instance of Traveller not standing his ground in battle. It occurred at the Second Battle of Bull Run when General Lee was holding Traveller by the bridle, having dismounted to reconnoitre his position. Something spooked Traveller and the horse pulled Lee down onto a tree stump. Both of Lee's hands were broken and through the remainder of that campaign a courier rode in front leading Traveller. After the war, Traveller accompanied Lee to Washington College in Lexington, where the horse was a great favourite with the students. In 1870 Traveller took part in Lee's funeral procession, bearing the General's saddle and boots, which were draped in black crepe, and following the caisson carrying Lee's coffin. In 1871, Traveller fell victim to tetanus, which was incurable back then, and he was euthanized.
