battle of booneville, missouri

There is an interesting illustration on page 268 of "The Confederate Soldier in the Civil War.

It is based on a sketch by Corporal W. Blome"

It depicts a charge by General Marmaduke's cavalry at Booneville, Missouri.

Does anyone know who Blome was?

Does this depict the Oct 64 battle at Booneville or the June 17th 1861 fight?
