    Brigadier General William L. Cabell, known as "Old Tige", was born in Danville, Virginia on January 1, 1827, the third child of Gen. Benjamin W. S. and Sarah Eppes Cabell, who lived to see seven sons and two daughters grown. (Six sons held prominent positions in the Confederate army. The other, Dr. Powhatan Cabell, died from the effect of an arrow wound received in Florida just before the Civil War began.) General Cabell was graduated at the military academy at West Point in 1850, entered the United States army as second lieutenant, and was assigned to the Seventh U.S. Infantry. In June, 1855, he was promoted to first lieutenant and made regimental quartermaster of that regiment. In March, 1858, he was promoted to captain in the quartermaster department and assigned to the staff of Gen. Persifer F. Smith, then in command of the Utah expedition. When the war became inevitable, Captain Cabell repaired to Fort Smith, Arkansas, and from there went to Little Rock and offered his services to the governor of the State. On receipt of a telegram from President Davis he went to Montgomery, Alabama, then the Confederate capital, where he found the acceptance of his resignation from the United States army, signed by President Lincoln. He was at once commissioned major, Confederate States Army, and under orders from President Davis left on April 21st for Richmond to organize the quartermaster, commissary and ordnance departments. Later he was sent to Manassas to report to General Beauregard as chief quartermaster of the Confederate Army of the Potomac, in which position he assisted in designing what became the Army of Northern Virginia battle flag, now commonly recognized as the Confederate battle flag. After Gen. Joseph E. Johnston assumed command, Major Cabell served on his staff until January 15, 1862, when he was ordered to report to Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston, by whom he was assigned to General van Dorn, with headquarters then at Jacksonport, Ark. He was next promoted to the rank of brigadier general and put in command of all the troops on White River in Arkansas, where he held the enemy in check until after the battle of Elkhorn Tavern, March 7th and 8th, 1862. After that battle the army was transferred to the east side of the Mississippi. The removal of this army, which included Price's Missouri and McCulloch's Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas troops, and his own command, devolved on General Cabell, and was performed within a single week from points along White River. van Dorn's army proceeded, after reaching Memphis, to Corinth, and General Cabell was assigned to command a Texas brigade with an Arkansas regiment attached. He led this brigade in several engagements around Corinth, and commanded the rear of the army on the retreat from Corinth to Tupelo. After Bragg had moved into Tennessee, Cabell was transferred to an Arkansas brigade, which he commanded in the battles of Iuka and Saltillo in September, at Corinth on October 2 and 3, 1862, and at Hatchie Bridge on the 4th. He was wounded leading the charge of his brigade on the breastworks at Corinth and also at Hatchie Bridge, which disabled him for duty in the field. What was left of his command was temporarily assigned to the First Missouri brigade under General Bowen, and he was ordered to the Trans-Mississippi department to recover from his wounds and inspect the staff departments of that army. When his strength was sufficiently restored he was, in February, 1863, put in command of northwest Arkansas, with instructions to augment his forces by recruits from every part of the State. In this he was very successful, organizing one of the largest cavalry brigades west of the Mississippi, which he thereafter commanded in more than twenty battles. He took a prominent part in the engagements at Poison Spring and Marks' Mills, in April, 1864, commanding two brigades of Fagan's division. In his report of the campaign ending at Jenkins' Ferry, General Marmaduke wrote that, "To speak of the quick perception and foresight or the reckless bravery of Shelby, the élan and chivalrous bearing of Cabell, inspiring all who looked upon him, or the perseverance, untiring energy and steady courage of Greene, would be telling a twice-told tale." During the 1864 raid into Missouri under General Price General Cabell was captured in battle near the Little Osage river, October 25, 1864, and was taken to Johnson's island, Lake Erie, and later to Fort Warren, near Boston, and held until August 28, 1865.
    After his release from the POW camp in August, 1865, General Cabell returned to Fort Smith, Arkansas, where he studied law and was admitted to the bar. He moved to Dallas, Texas in 1872, and served four terms as mayor of that city. He was a U.S. Marshal from 1885 until 1889, and then became vice-president of what became a part of the Southern Pacific Railroad system. From 1893 until 1907, General Cabell was one of the supervisors of the Louisiana State Lottery and of its successor, the Honduras National Lottery. He was appointed as a lieutenant-general of the United Confederate Veterans, commanding the Trans-Mississippi department, and became an honorary commander-in-chief of the UCV. General Cabell died in Dallas on February 22, 1911, and is buried in Greenwood Cemetery there.
