Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Poetry and Incidents., Volume 8. (ed. Frank Moore), chapter 141 (search)
Josiah Vavasseur & Co., of London, take credit to themselves, of course through the columns of the London Times, for providing the steel shot for the rebels by which the Keokuk was sunk. A statement published in England to the effect that practical artillerists have not been using spherical steel shot put this house of Vavasseur & Co. upon its defence, and as a proof that artillerists do use such implements of war, they say they have reason to believe that the same shot made by us (Vavasseur & Co.) were used by the confederates in the first attack of the monitors upon Charleston, in which action the Keokuk was so severely handled. Vavasseur & Co., like good neutral Englishmen as they are, rather pride themselves on the efficient aid thus rendered to the rebels.
