Warrenton Railroad Depot at Beckham & 3rd Sts. - Here an unknown assailant fired a shot at Col. Mosby late one evening in 1878 as Mosby departed a train. Mosby incurred the wrath of many Virginians for supporting President Grant and joining the Republican Party. Ex-President Grant upon hearing of the incident and fearing for Mosby’s life used his influence to have President Rutherford B. Hayes appoint Mosby Consul to Hong Kong
