Go to June 16 1863

Arkansas. Incident at Fayetteville.

Arkansas. USS Juliet, Acting Lieutenant Shaw, seized the steamer Fred Nolte on the White River.

Arkansas. Union landing parties from USS Marmora, Acting Lieutenant Robert Getty, and USS Prairie Bird, Acting Lieutenant Edward E Brennand, destroyed the town of Gaines Landing in retaliation for guerrilla attacks.

Florida. USS Lackawanna, Captain John B Marchand, captured the steamer Planter with a cargo of cotton in the Gulf of Mexico.

Kentucky. Three hundred Confederate cavalry under Colonel Peter Everett ambushed Union Major R T Williams and thirty men of the 14^th Kentucky Cavalry near Olympian Springs in Bath County, killing eleven men and capturing twelve.

Louisiana. The 14^th New York Cavalry was attacked by Confederate cavalry raiders near Newport, two miles from Port Hudson. Other raids struck Union foraging parties returning from Jackson and captured Brigadier-General Neal Dow, who was convalescing at Heath plantation.

Richmond, Louisiana. Richmond was an important point on the Confederate supply line running into Vicksburg from west of the Mississippi. Union forces advanced against this supply line following their victories at Milliken’s Bend and Young’s Point. Union Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman released Brigadier-General Joseph Antony Mower’s Brigade from the Vicksburg trenches to support Brigadier-General Alfred Washington Ellet’s Marine Brigade in driving Confederate Major-General John George Walker’s division from Richmond. Mower and Ellet advanced on Richmond with the Marines in the lead. Ellet’s command was discovered by Confederate scouts and Walker deployed a concealed line of skirmishers from the 18^th Texas Infantry. The Texans attacked and stopped the Union vanguard. Walker was able to hold off Ellet until Mower’s infantry came up. Mower formed his brigade in line of battle and unlimbered his artillery. The battle continued as an artillery duel until Mower’s troops manoeuvred through a bayou on the Confederate’s flank. Walker was informed that his supply wagons were safely removed, and he then ordered a withdrawal.
Walker’s men destroyed the bridges behind them and although Mower’s troops rebuilt them, the Union force was content to permit their escape and to destroy the town. The Union victory deprived the Vicksburg garrison of the supply route across the river from Louisiana. Union losses were one man killed and 11 wounded. The Confederates lost 5 killed and 25 captured.

Louisiana. Confederate Major-General Richard Taylor reoccupied Alexandria after his fruitless attempt to disrupt Union supplies at Milliken’s Bend. He was ordered by General Edmund Kirby Smith to continue to operate on the western side of the Mississippi to try to assist the besieged Vicksburg garrison. Taylor developed a three-pronged campaign against the Union supply depots. He revived his earlier proposal for a descent of Bayou Teche and along the Atchafalaya River, where he would recapture Berwick Bay and overrun the La Fourche region between Grand Lake and the Mississippi. This would threaten New Orleans and interfere with the communications to Union Major-General Nathaniel Prentiss Banks’ forces at Port Hudson. The aim was to force Banks to raise the siege, allowing the garrison of Confederate Major-General Franklin Gardner to escape and combine with General Joseph Eggleston Johnston in the relief of Vicksburg. For his ambitious campaign, Taylor had a brigade of three cavalry regiments that had recently arrived at Alexandria from Texas under Colonel James Patrick Major. These supplemented five cavalry regiments under Brigadier-General Thomas Green and three infantry regiments under Brigadier-General Jean Jacques Alfred Alexandre Mouton. These added up to about 4,000 men, barely a tenth of the numbers opposing them, but Taylor aimed to compensate for his low numbers with audacity. Mouton and Green set off down the west bank of the Bayou Teche to march unopposed through Opelousas and New Iberia. Taylor accompanied Major across the Atchafalaya and down Bayou Fordoche towards Port Hudson.

Maryland. Skirmish at Williamsport. Confederate Brigadier-General Albert Gallatin’s Jenkins cavalry brigade crossed the Potomac River at Williamsport before sundown, having captured en route four guns from Maulsby’s West Virginia battery that had escaped from Martinsburg garrison.

Mississippi. Operation in northwestern Mississippi began. Union Major-General Stephen Augustus Hurlbut ordered 1,900 Union cavalrymen at La Grange to attack the railroad line at Panola, Mississippi, and to sweep the country of forage, wheat, animals, and other supplies.

Mississippi. Confederate General Joseph Eggleston Johnston confirmed to the government authorities that his force was too weak to attempt to raise the siege of Vicksburg. His dismal assessment caused consternation among the authorities in Richmond and Secretary of War James Alexander Seddon insisted that Johnston must make an effort, even one of the most desperate kind, to save the stronghold. Johnston resisted all blandishments and demands, explaining that the superior strength of the Union army and its powerful defences made such an effort pointless.

North Carolina. The Confederate ironclad CSS Atlanta got underway in the early evening and passed over the lower obstructions in the Wilmington River, preparatory to an anticipated attack on the Union blockading forces in Wassaw Sound, Georgia. Commander William A Webb CSN dropped anchor at 8 pm and spent the remainder of the night loading coal.

Tennessee. Skirmish near Trenton.

Tennessee. Union reconnaissance to, and skirmish near, Lebanon.

Virginia. Incidents at Winchester and Walkerton.

Virginia. CSS Tacony, Lieutenant Charles Read, captured and burned the brig Umpire with a cargo of sugar and molasses off the Virginia coast.

Virginia. Confederate Lieutenant-General James Longstreet began to move his I Army Corps from Culpeper along the eastern side of the Blue Ridge to confuse Union scouts before turning northwest through Ashby’s Gap and Snicker’s Gap into the Shenandoah Valley.

Stephenson’s Depot, West Virginia, also known as Martinsburg or Stevenson’s Depot. Confederate Major-General Edward Johnson’s division had conducted a night outflanking march to cut off Brigadier-General Robert Huston Milroy’s retreat four miles north of Winchester at Stephenson’s Depot. A hot skirmish began at 3.30 am when Milroy’s 1^st Brigade under Brigadier-General Washington Lafayette Elliott engaged the Confederates. Near dawn, Johnson’s skirmishers encountered the head of Milroy’s retreating column near the intersection of the Valley Pike and old Charles Town road. Milroy faced his column to the right on the pike and prepared to fight his way out of the trap by enveloping the enemy. Johnson deployed his regiments along Milburn Road as they came up and advanced to the railroad. He placed two guns on either side of the Charles Town Road railroad bridge. The rest of the artillery was deployed on the heights east of Milburn Road. As it grew light, Union forces made several desperate but uncoordinated attacks against the bridge and railroad embankment. The Confederates were being steadily reinforced and repulsed each attempt. Colonel Jesse M Williams’ (Nicholls’) Brigade crushed the final Union attack and Brigadier-General James Alexander Walker’s brigade, which had been a mile away due to faulty orders when the firing started, arrived on the right of the Confederate line just as the Union troops attempted to achieve an envelopment. Walker advanced to cut the Valley Pike and some remaining Union regiments hoisted the white flag. Milroy’s horse was shot out from under him and the division scattered. Some small groups even escaped covertly to the southeast through Manassas Gap. Milroy and his staff, his cavalry, and other small units totaling about 1,200 men escaped to Harpers Ferry. Additionally, in the days following the battle, 700 more men turned up at Bloody Run, Pennsylvania. Milroy’s command had ceased to exist, and the scattered remnants were assimilated back into the Middle Department, while Milroy himself was placed under arrest.
The main body of the Union garrison of Martinsburg, which had escaped encirclement, reached Shepherdstown at 1 am, having abandoned one disabled gun and brought one gun to safety. They crossed the Potomac River and reached Harper’s Ferry at about 7 am. The Confederates had hoped to re-supply and forage, but they had also captured enough artillery and horses (23 guns at Winchester and 5 guns at Martinsburg and 300 horses) to equip a battalion of artillery and cavalry. Additionally, the Confederates captured a great quantity of food, clothing, small arms ammunition, and medical stores in Winchester. The defeat stunned the North and Secretary of War Edwin McMaster Stanton called for additional militia to be mobilised for Federal service. Governor Andrew Curtin of Pennsylvania called for 50,000 volunteers to protect the state.
About 700 sick and 3,358 fit Union troops surrendered in addition to 443 men killed and wounded. Confederate casualties were estimated at between 266 to 269 men for the campaign.
