1864 April 1st

April 1 1864 Friday

Red River Campaign
Arkansas Campaign
Forrest’s Second West Tennessee Raid

Go to April 2 1864

Tierra del Fuego. The US Navy Department expressed concern that Confederate raiders would enter the Pacific Ocean to strike at the California trade. Intelligence had been received that the CSS Florida and CSS Georgia would try to intercept shipping in the straits of Le Maire, between Tierra del Fuego and Staten Island. The vast majority of California-bound ships passed this way in plain sight of the shore and it was believed that Confederate steamers could lie concealed in comparatively smooth water, ready to pounce on their victims.

Arkansas. Reconnaissance to Bellefonte ended.

Arkansas. Skirmish near Arkadelphia.

Arkansas. Skirmish at Hollywood.

Arkansas. Skirmish at Fitzhugh’s Woods , six miles above Augusta on the White River, with Union soldiers being assisted by the gunboat USS Covington.

Arkansas. After waiting for two days at Arkadelphia with no word received from the reinforcing column of Brigadier-General John Milton Thayer, Union Major-General Frederick Steele moved southwest from Arkadelphia toward Washington, the temporary capital of Confederate Arkansas. Washington was thirty miles away, five miles beyond the obstacle of the Little Missouri River, and Steele’s supplies were depleting rapidly.
Confederate Major-General Sterling Price had few forces with which to oppose Steele’s advance because his infantry had been sent south to defend Shreveport, Louisiana, and the Red River. Price had kept five small cavalry brigades with a total of 5,000 men but they were scattered across Arkansas. Brigadier-General James Fleming Fagan commanded the largest group (a division of two brigades) east of the Saline River, threatening Pine Bluff. Two more brigades were at Camden on the lower Ouachita, and the fifth was on the upper Red River west of Washington. The Camden and Washington brigades were in the division of Major-General John Sappington Marmaduke and included the veteran cavalry brigade of Brigadier-General Joseph Orville Shelby. Price was promised two brigades of reinforcements that had been released from service in the Indian Territory after Thayer’s Union column left Fort Smith. These troops were led by Brigadier-General Samuel Bell Maxey but their time of arrival was unpredictable, if not improbable.
Price’s orders from General Edmund Kirby Smith were to delay and harass Steele’s advance but not to risk a major engagement. Fagan was left in a position to protect Camden while Marmaduke was given the task of harassing Steele’s column. Marmaduke kept two brigades to oppose Steele’s line of march while Shelby was given a free hand to attack the rear of the Union column and to cut its communications with Arkadelphia and Little Rock. Shelby acted immediately and, for the first time since the occupation of Little Rock, the Union troops had to contend with numerous cavalry raiders around Arkadelphia, Augusta, and Fitzhugh’s Woods. There was also a sizeable encounter nearby at Hollywood.

Virginia. Union Lieutenant-General Ulysses Simpson Grant met Major-General Benjamin Franklin Butler at Fortress Monroe to explain his plan of campaign in Virginia. He and Butler were in accord that Butler’s Army of the James should make an amphibious advance up the James River to a landing point at or near City Point. This port was only eight miles northeast of Petersburg, the hub for railroad connections between Virginia and the Confederates’ main sources of supply in Georgia and South Carolina. A march of only twenty miles would bring Butler to the outskirts of the Confederate capital at Richmond. Grant gave detailed instructions, supported by written orders, indicating that Butler’s primary objective would be the city of Richmond by way of the James River.
