Granger's troops were transferred August 9, 1864. from Dauphin Island to the rear of Fort Morgan, and there lines of investment were constructed across the narrow sand-spit. When every thing was in readiness, the fleet and these batteries Farragut had landed four 9-inch guns, and placed them in battery, under the command of Lieutenant H. B. Tyson, of the Hartford. opened fire upon the fort at daylight, August 22. and bombarded it furiously about twenty-four hours. The main work was not much injured; but the sturdy light-house, standing near, and in range of Farragut's guns, was reduced to the condition delineated in the engraving.
