Time-lapse two photograph portrait of Union soldier Francis E. Brownell, 1862. Brownell killed secessionist James W. Jackson shortly after Jackson shot Union Colonel Elmer E. Ellsworth in the Marshall House in Alexandria, Virginia, in 1861. Brownell is possibly standing on the large Confederate flag captured in the incident for which he was later awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions.
