Volume II., Xxix. The War on the ocean — Mobile Bay. (search)
d planted in a channel where it is scarcely possible for attacking vessels to avoid them, it must be felt that the fleet, however strong, which defies and assails them, can only hope to succeed by the rarest exhibitions alike of skill and courage. Ten years had not elapsed since the immense naval power of Great Britain, wielded by a Napier, recoiled before the defenses of Cronstadt; while no attempt was made on the fortifications of Odessa. The fleet which Rear-Admiral Farragut led Aug. 5, 1864. to force its way into the bay of Mobile was composed of 4 iron-clads and 14 wooden ships-of-war or gunboats, as follows: Defenses of Mobile. Hartford (flag-ship), Capt. P. Drayton; Brooklyn, Capt. James Alden; Metacomet, Lt.-Com'r J. E. Jouett; Octorara, Lt.-Com'r C. H. Green; Richmond, Capt. T. A. Jenkins; Lackawanna, Capt. J. B. Marchand; Monongahela, Com'r J. H. Strong; Ossipee, Com'r W. E. Leroy; Oneida, Com'r J. R. M. Mullany; Port Royal, Lt.-Com'r
