  • The Lady Slocomb: How Mobile, Alabama, Lost Its Most Famous Civil War Cannon to New Orleans
    The Lady Slocomb: How Mobile, Alabama, Lost its Most famous Civil War Cannon to New Orleans By Paul Brueske, April 13, 2020 blueandgrayeducation.org The Lady Slocomb, Confederate Memorial Hall Museum, New Orleans Many fascinating stories were produced during the campaign for the capture of Mobile in March 1865. One of the more interesting tales related to the last siege of that terrible war, involved the fate of a Confederate cannon that was used at the siege of Spanish Fort called the Lady Slocomb. In the 1890s this cannon was displayed prominently on Mobile’s Government Street but vanished before the turn of the nineteenth century, ending up in New Orleans. During the siege of Spanish Fort, the big cannon was located at a redoubt known as Battery Blair. The big gun was manned by the Washington Artillery’s Fifth Company, which named it the “Lady Slocomb” after their captain’s wife. The cannon caused the besieging Federals much suffering until two Union shells disabled it and killed three Southerners. The dismounted gun was placed on the ground nearby, where it rested for nearly 25 years. Before the cannon was moved to the city, a charge of canister in the barrel was discovered by the old veterans and removed. Spanish Fort plan, 1865 | Library of Congress After the war, the Blue and Gray Veterans Union, a group of Union and Confederate veterans living near Mobile, was organized on July 4, 1890, on the battlefield of Spanish Fort, Baldwin County, Alabama. It was there the veterans, to their amazement, discovered the old Lady Slocomb cannon—a big 8-inch Columbiad built at Tredegar, Virginia.

  • The Battles of Mansfield (Sabine Crossroads) and Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, 8 and 9 April 1864
    RICE UNIVERSITY DEAD-END AT THE CROSSROADS: THE BATTLES OF MANSFIELD (SABINE CROSSROADS) AND PLEASANT HILL, LOUISIANA, 8 AND 9 APRIL 1864 by Richard Leslie Riper, Jr. A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Thesis Director's Signature Houston, Texas May, 1976 Abstract Dead-End at the Crossroads: The Battles of Mansfield (Sabine Cross¬ roads) and Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, 8 and 9 April 1864 Richard Leslie Riper, Jr. On 8 April 1864 a Union army commanded by Major General Nathaniel P. Banks was defeated by a Confederate army commanded by Major General Richard Taylor at the small town of Mansfield, Louisiana. In Union records the engagement was recorded as the battle of Sabine Crossroads, and the defeat signaled the "high-water mark" for the Union advance toward Shreveport. General Banks, after repeated urging by Major General Henry Hal- leck, General-in-Chief of the Union Army, had launched a drive up the Red River through Alexandria and Natchitoches to capture Shreveport, the industrial hub of the Trans-Mississippi Department. From New Or¬ leans and Berwick, Louisiana, and from Vicksburg, Mississippi, the Fédérais converged on Alexandria. From Little Rock, Arkansas, a Union column under Major General Frederick Steele was to join Banks at Shreve¬ port. Three major infantry forces and the Union Navy under Admiral David D. Porter were to participate in the campaign, yet no one was given supreme authority to coordinate the forces. Halleck's orders were for the separate commands only to co-operate with Banks--a clear viola¬ tion of the principle of unity of command.
