July 15 1863 Wednesday
Gettysburg Campaign
Morgan’s Ohio Raid
Gillmore’s Operations in Charleston Harbour
Siege of Jackson
New York Draft Riots
Atlantic Ocean. CSS Georgia, Lieutenant William Lewis Maury, captured the American ship Prince of Wales, from Bath, Maine, in the mid-South Atlantic and released her on bond.
Canada. Former US Congressman Clement Laird Vallandigham, who had been banished from the United States for expressing anti-war and pro-Confederate sentiments, opened his campaign for election as Governor of Ohio by making a speech in Niagara Falls on the US-Canadian border.
France. Lucien Arman, a naval constructor at Bordeaux, was contracted by Confederate Commander James Dunwoody Bulloch to build two steam rams. The warships would be designed with hulls of wood and iron, powered by 300-horsepower engines, two propellers, and with two armoured turrets. Only one of the rams (later commissioned as CSS Stonewall) reached Confederate hands in Havana, Cuba, late in the war but it was eventually surrendered to the USA.
Florida. Boat crews from USS Stars and Stripes and USS Somerset, under Lieutenant-Commander Alexander F Crosman, landed at Marsh’s Island and destroyed salt works.
Florida. USS Santiago de Cuba, Commander Robert H Wyman, captured the steamer Lizzie east of the Florida coast.
Florida. An expedition from USS Port Royal captured a supply of cotton ready to be run through the blockade at Apalachicola.
Indian Territory. Union and Confederate troops had frequently skirmished in the vicinity of Honey Springs where the Confederates had established a supply depot. Union Major-General James Gilpatrick Blunt correctly surmised that Confederate forces, mostly Native American troops under the overall command of Brigadier-General Douglas Hancock Cooper but led locally by Brigadier-General William Steele, were about to concentrate for an attack his own force at Fort Gibson. He decided to defeat the Confederates at Honey Springs Depot before they were reinforced by Brigadier-General William Lewis Cabell’s brigade, which was marching from Fort Smith, Arkansas. Blunt left Fort Gibson and began crossing the swollen Arkansas River with troops from the District of the Frontier.
Kentucky. Confederate cavalry raiders occupied Hickman.
Louisiana. After the loss of Vicksburg, the Confederates resorted to positioning mobile batteries along the Mississippi to disrupt Union river traffic. They were usually identified and forced to move by Union gunboats before they could cause serious disruption. The merchant steamer Imperial arrived at New Orleans having left St Louis. Missouri, on 8 July. Her safe arrival at the port city without incident proved that the Union now controlled the inland rivers with little hindrance.
Maryland. Incident at Jones’ Cross Roads.
Mississippi. Reconnaissance to Pearl River.
Mississippi. Skirmish with Confederate cavalry by Forked Deer River.
Mississippi. Skirmish near Jackson.
New York. Mobs continued to terrorise New York City in protest against the draft. They also carried out racially motivated attacks and, in some areas, their control was undisputed. Union troops detached from the Union Army of the Potomac began to arrive during the evening and commenced the ruthless suppression of the rioters.
Ohio. Confederate Brigadier-General John Hunt Morgan and his Confederate raiding party turned their course towards Buffington which was reported to be an excellent crossing point for a return to Kentucky. They were pursued by Union troops from Cincinnati towards the Ohio River.
South Carolina. Reconnaissance to Battery Wagner ended.
South Carolina. Confederate batteries at Grimball’s Landing on the Stono River opened heavy gunfire on USS Pawnee, Commander George G Balch, and USS Marblehead, Lieutenant-Commander Robert V Scott. USS Pawnee was struck 40 times by accurate fire. At the same time, Confederate troops assaulted a Union position on James Island held by Brigadier General Alfred Howe Terry’s division. The Union gunboats provided support for the Union defenders until the Confederates broke off the attack. Both ships were compelled to drop downriver to repair damage.
Tennessee. Skirmish at Pulaski.
Virginia. USS Yankee, Acting Ensign Turner, captured the schooner Nanjemoy in the Coan River.
Virginia. The Confederate retreat from their defeat in Pennsylvania continued as General Robert Edward Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia headed southwards along the Shenandoah Valley.
Virginia. During his diversionary operations towards Richmond at the time of the Gettysburg campaign, the commander of the Union IV Corps, Major-General Erasmus Darwin Keyes, had retreated from a position near Baltimore Cross Roads. His superior officer, Major-General John Adams Dix, deemed Keyes’ opponents to be greatly inferior in number and removed Keyes from command for his timidity. This decision was followed by the discontinuation of IV Corps on 1 August 1863 and the allocation of its forces to other sectors. Keyes asked for an investigation of the charges that led to his removal from command but the request was never granted. He was not assigned to another major command and served on various boards and commissions, including the board for retiring disabled officers, from 15 July 1863 until his resignation and retirement from the army on 6 May 1864.
West Virginia. Skirmishes at Halltown and Charlestown.
West Virginia. Skirmish at Shepherdstown.
