The Daily Dispatch: may 27, 1862., [Electronic resource], The action at Forts Jackson and St. Philip. (search)
hip received a large number of grape and canister which did not pass through. The enemy's firing, upon the whole, was very bad. I enclose the Surgeon's report, showing the number of killed and wounded. I cannot speak too highly of the gallant bearing of all on board — and where all performed their duty so well, it is almost impossible to particularize; but I cannot refrain from mentioning the conduct of Acting Midships and P. State, in charge of the Powder Division — by Whose coolness and promptness the ship was saved from being burnt; also, Lieut T. D. Fleter, of the revenue service, who was a volunteer on board and behaved with much bravery. Lieut. Thomas Arnold, though wounded and bleeding freely remained at his quarters, encouraging his diesis on to fight courageously. Much credit is due to Passed Asst. Surgeon Christian, for his promptness in attending to the wounded. Very respectfully your ob't serv't, Chas W. Read, Lieut. To Capt. W. C. Whittle Naval Station
Arrest on a serious charge. --The police yesterday evening caged a man named Frank, alias William Guy, as one of the murderers of Patrick Kelly. It will be remembered that Richard Duff and others are already in custody for killing both Kelly and Downes, who were members of Read's heavy artillery company, and whose mysterious murder on 17th street, a few weeks since, by unrecognized ruffians, threw the whole city into a fever of excitement. The evidence against Guy, if indeed he prove one of the assassins, will be elicited on his examination this morning before the Head of Police.
