On July 1, 1863, Gen. Jeb Stuart's cavalry shelled Carlisle and skirmished with troops commanded by Union Gen. Baldy Smith. A number of buildings were damaged and burned, including several at the U.S. Army garrison at the Carlisle Barracks, which was temporarily captured, but this last skirmish of Stuart's 10-day ride during the Gettysburg Campaign delayed his arrival at Gettysburg until Day Two.
