The Daily Dispatch: March 11, 1862., [Electronic resource], A gallant Deed. (search)
man getting possession of the musket of one of the Yankees, suddenly brought it in juxtaposition with his cranium, fired and blew the top of his head off. He then charged bayonet on the other Yankee, who surrendered, and permitted himself to be tied up with a rope. The German then waited until it was dark, and setting all sail, slipped off from the squadron, and sailing up the lake, reached Fort Pike in safety, bearing the Stars and Stripes Union down, from his masthead. He delivered to the commandant of the fort one dead and one live Yankee--the former was buried at the fort, and the latter was brought over by his captor and delivered to Gen. Lovell. All honor to the brave Tenton. We regret we have not his name, but the facts here stated are vouched for by the most responsible persons. The honest fisherman deserves, and we hope will receive, some substantial token of appreciation and consideration of his vigorous and effective mode of disposing of Yankee invaders.--N. O. Delta
