Additional Description: Next to this is a kiosk station detailing the life of Farley and his contribution to the battle. He was killed, at about the same time Butler was wounded, by an artillery shell. The shell severed both of Farley's legs, and killed the horse he was riding. He would die on the field and be buried in Culpeper.

While too long to reproduce for a proper marker entry, this station is likely to be replaced by a formal marker in the future.
