Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 1. (ed. Reverend J. William Jones), Seacoast defences of South Carolina and Georgia. (search)
Seacoast defences of South Carolina and Georgia. By General A. L. Long, Chief of Artillery. The seacoast defences occupied the attention of the Confederate Government as soon as it became apparent that the war was inevitable. The line of coast extending from the entrance of the Chesapeake bay to the mouth of the Rio Grande presented innumerable bays, inlets and harbors, into which vessels could run either for predatory excursions or with the intention of actual invasion. The Federals having the command of the sea, it was certain that they would take advantage of this open condition of the coast to employ their naval force as soon as it could be collected, not only to enforce the blockade which had been declared, but also for making inroads along our unprotected coast. That the system of defence adopted may be understood, I will describe a little in detail the topography of the coast. On the coast of North Carolina are Albemarle and Pamlico sounds, penetrating trating far int

This is the first time I have ever been sick enough to be sent to a hospiand obtain a transfer to general hospital at Lynchburg.

It is partly under charge of some Sisters of Charity. Here I heard of the sudden death of Mr. Charles Wrigtherwise, I remained in my room until evening trying to sleep, and thus atone for the night's restlessness. Late in the day I applied, with Lieutenants Howard and Long and several other officers, for discharge from the hospital.

D. D., Secretary Southern Historical Society: Dear Sir--General Long's sketch in the February number of the Southern Histommunication between the Mississippi and the Potomac. General Long omits from consideration the particularly great value old have been accomplished by an incalculable force. General Long, as he says, was on the staff of General Lee during thet defence I do not propose to relate, but I must assure General Long and his readers, of what can be readily substantiated, mmand, instead of being that impenetrable barrier which General Long supposes — opposed to the mighty naval forces of Dupontnah. And so comprehensive were these changes, that had General Long chanced to visit those two places and the intermediate ndeed of the whole defensive system around Savannah. General Long observes that the Coosawhatchie was the centre of the douth Carolina and Georgia as is given by the article of General Long, I doubt not unconscious of the injustice thus done to
