Editing Mount Stuart (section)

==Name==
Mount Stuart was given its name by [[George B. McClellan]] in September 1853<!--either August 23 (Beckey) or September 20 (Meany). The latter is more likely as Beckey quotes Meany and the previous entry in Meany (Mount Spokane) has an August 23 date--> in honor of his oldest and best friend, "the late Capt. Jas. [Jimmie] Stuart of the Rifles&mdash;a gallant soldier &amp; accomplished gentleman." Stuart had died of an arrow wound on June 18, 1851, following a skirmish with Native Americans at the base of the [[Siskiyou Mountains]] in southwest Oregon.<ref>{{cite book |last=Beckey |first=Fred |authorlink=Fred Beckey |title=Range of Glaciers: The Exploration and Survey of the Northern Cascade Range |publisher=Oregon Historical Society Press |year=2003 |isbn=0-87595-243-7 |pages= 80, 83}}</ref><ref>Meany, Edmond Stephen, [https://journals.lib.washington.edu/index.php/WHQ/article/viewFile/6122/5196 Origin of Washington Geographic Names, Volum XI, page 217], The Washington Historical Quarterly, 1920</ref>
