AFTER TWENTY-NINE YEARS,
An Incident In the Practice Work of a
Southern Field Day—How Colonel Richardson Came to Know That He Had Done
Some Damage to His Enemies,
When the Washington artillery was
at Morgan City, there were many striking incidents that sprang out of the ceremonies of dedicating Fort Star and of.
practicing with the solid shot. The
whole day . the war and its memories
were kept before the people, but it was
not a reawakening in which the bloedy
shirt had any play, but more of a
thoughtful retrospection, in which the
recalling of battles was not with bitterness, but with an impartial sadness,
Among the happenings of the day none
was more singular and noteworthy than
one which occurred to Colonel Richardson, the commander of the battalion,
It was during the time when the batteries were firing shell ‘at the two targets, which looked like tiny handkerchiefs on the water, they were so far
away. A good shot was fired, and the
spectators were applauding the excellent
marksmanship, and the colonel stepped
up to the gun to commend the gunner,
when without cause or without knowing
why the memory of a similar shot which
had been fired 29 years ago almost to the
had stepped up to a gunner and compliIt was when he was at Fort Malone at
the siege of Petersburg, which was
known as Fort “Damnation,” when the
shot 29 years before had been fired, and
the-Pourth of@uly was almost the annitops of two Sibley tents which pee
over the ramparts of Fort “Hell,” just
opposite Fort ‘‘Damnation.”. They were
that from a deserter who. had informed
him, also that the officers of the' whole
command held a daily consultation there,
and that he could tell the time from the
fact that they hitched their horses around
the tents.
Colonel Richardson was then a captain in the Washington artiller , and he
conceived the idea of scoring'a point on
the Federals by firing on the tents just
at the time of the daily consultation.
He selected the best gunner in his command and told him what he wanted him
to do, and that was to load and prepare
the guns for a special shot which he was
going to direct them to make the ensuing day. The young captain was sure
that he had gunners he could depend upon, and to make _ his triumph complete
he asked General Malone to be present
when the shots wefe to be fired. _.
It was noon the next day when the
horses of the Federal’ officers were seen
collected around the two tents. The
gunners were told fo train their guns
upon them and to be certain to make
their shots tell. Those two shots were
made the center of the interest of those
in Fort “Damnation” for that day, for
the word was passed around that the destruction of the officers’ tents was to be
attempted.
After a deal of preliminary arrangements the: two shots were fired, and the
tops of the two Sibley tents disappeared
like cardhouses in a gale of wind. The
success of the shots was the signal for
cheering on the part of the Confederates.
General Malone complimented the accuracy of the artillerymen, and it was
then that the captain stepped to the gunner and expressed his approbation in
much the same way that. he used to the
one that had made the good shot at Morgan City. But there had always been a
tinge of dissatisfaction about that shot
at the Federal tents, and that was that
he had never ascertained whether any
one had been hurt in the tents, and for
the 29 intervening years that one thought
had pervaded the whole incident.
With these thoughts in his mind Colonel Richardson turned away from the
gunner at Morgan City, and at that moment one of Morgan City’s prominent
citizens, Mr. Gray, stepped to the colonel’s side and said:
“Isn’t this Colonel Richardson?”
“Yes.”
“Well, Ihave been wanting to meet
you for many years, ever since I heard
you had been in Fort ‘Damnation’ at
the same time that I was in Fort ‘Hell.’”
“Yes?” said the colonel, “and when
were you in Fort ‘Hell?”
“In July, 1864. In fact, just 29 years
ago today,” answered Mr, Gray.
The colonel instantly thought of those
two shots and wondered if his curiosity
was to be satisfied. “Do you remember
aday while you were Opposite me in
Fort ‘Hell’ when the tents of the officers
were taken down by two shots which
were almost simultaneous?”
