Hendersonville, NC

Surrender of the Confederate Army in North Carolina

Flight of the Confederate Government

Go to April 27 1865

CSA. George Davis resigned as Attorney-General of the Confederate States.

CSA. John Henninger Reagan was appointed Attorney-General of the Confederate States.

Arkansas. Expedition from Little Rock to the Saline River began.

Dakota Territory. Cheyenne or Platte Indians attacked and killed some Union soldiers herding horses toward Fort Rice.

North Carolina. The Union 3rd Division of XV Corps was discontinued, and its troops were transferred to the 1st Division, 2nd Division, and 4th Division of XV Corps.

North Carolina. After holding the last formal meeting of the Confederate Cabinet, President Jefferson Finis Davis and his entourage set out from Charlotte and headed for the territory west of the Mississippi River. Davis intended to continue the struggle for Southern independence in Texas. At the end of the meeting, George Davis resigned from his position as Attorney-General in order to stay with his family in North Carolina. The party was joined by four brigades of cavalry, supplementing the one already assigned as an escort. Their combined strength was about 3,000 men. Secretary of War Major-General John Cabell Breckinridge took command of the escort.

Hendersonville, North Carolina. Union Major-General George Stoneman and his cavalry expedition discovered a Confederate force near Hendersonville. They advanced and took 2,000 prisoners and 14 field guns without a fight, eliminating the last remnants of the Confederate forces that had left the Shenandoah Valley under Brigadier-General John Echols.

Durham Station, North Carolina. Confederate General Joseph Eggleston Johnston accepted the same surrender terms offered to Confederate General Robert Edward Lee at Appomattox Court House, Virginia, on 9 April. Despite having been ordered to continue resistance by President Jefferson Finis Davis, Johnston accepted that further hostilities and the effusion of blood were futile. The Confederate Army of Tennessee surrendered formally at Bennett (or Bennett’s) House, near Durham Station, to Union Major-General William Tecumseh Sherman. The Union army issued ten days’ rations to the Confederates and paroled 25,000 men before allowing them to depart for their homes. Johnston and Sherman never met again but Johnston attended Sherman’s funeral, where he caught a severe chill which ended his own life twenty-six years later.

South Carolina. The former Confederate ram CSS Columbia was re-floated by Union forces after much effort. The ship had sunk in January 1865 immediately after leaving its dock in Charleston harbour and was found abandoned near Fort Moultrie on 17 February by Union forces. The powerful warship had a casemate 65 feet long, pierced for six guns, one on each side and one at each of the four corners that could pivot ahead or astern or to the side. With two high-pressure engines, and 6 inches of iron armour, Union Rear Admiral John Adolph Bernard Dahlgren described the ram as the best vessel of its kind built by the Confederates – but it never entered active service.

Virginia. Operations in the Shenandoah Valley began against Confederate Colonel Thompson’s command of about 100 men who refused to accept the terms of surrender. They disbanded into the hills surrounding the Shenandoah Valley.

Virginia. John Wilkes Booth, the accused assassin of US President Abraham Lincoln, was found in a tobacco barn on Richard H Garrett’s farm, near Port Royal. Union troopers from Colonel Nathan Bowman Sweitzer’s 16th New York Cavalry set the barn on fire and shot Booth amid the flames when he refused to emerge. His paralysed body was dragged from the burning barn. Booth’s accomplice, David E Herold, surrendered and was taken away to stand trial.
