LTC John Singleton Mosby, late of the 43d VA Cavalry, was QUITE CAPABLE of doing so. and likely without firing a single shot.

i'm reminded of the exchange between a yankee general & COL Mosby:

voice from the darkness: MOSBY!

general: you've caught him??

Mosby: NO, he has caught YOU.

Well, maybe Mosby could, but I don't think anyone else could.
