Robert Underwood Johnson, Clarence Clough Buell, Battles and Leaders of the Civil War: Volume 2., Farragut's demands for the surrender of New Orleans. (search)
luded to an attempt having been made by him to place one upon the Custom-house. The mayor's reply, which was drafted by Mr. Soul6, renews his refusal to lower the flag of Louisiana.

Officer Soul said that Capeheart was wounded in the face his entire jaw being laid open, which prevented him from appearing. The case was continued, and the prisoner refused bail.
