During the remainder of his reign, John focused on trying to retake Normandy.[135] The available evidence suggests that John did not regard the loss of the Duchy as a permanent shift in Capetian power.[135] Strategically, John faced several challenges:[136] England itself had to be secured against possible French invasion,[136] the sea-routes to Bordeaux needed to be secured following the loss of the land route to Aquitaine, and his remaining possessions in Aquitaine needed to be secured following the death of his mother, Eleanor, in April 1204.[136] John's preferred plan was to use Poitou as a base of operations, advance up the Loire valley to threaten Paris, pin down the French forces and break Philip's internal lines of communication before landing a maritime force in the Duchy itself.[136] Ideally, this plan would benefit from the opening of a second front on Philip's eastern frontiers with Flanders and Boulogne – effectively a re-creation of Richard's old strategy of applying pressure from Germany.[136] All of this would require a great deal of money and soldiers.[137][4][5]

April 12, 1204: During the Fourth Crusade, Venetian and French crusaders seize Constantinople. The Crusades were a disaster for much of the Jewish population of Europe.[6] One of the blackest days in Medieval history, 1204 was the year of the infamous fourth Crusade when an army of European Knights headed for the holy land chose instead to plunder the treasures of the Byzantine Capital, Constantinople and fatally wounded the Greek empire. [7]
April 1270: In April 1270 Parliament agreed an unprecedented levy of one-twentieth of every citizen's goods and possessions to finance Edward's Crusade to the Holy Lands.[8]
Edward left England in August 1270 to join the highly respected French king Louis IX on Crusade. In 1270 (Eleanor of Castile) accompanied Edward on the Seventh Crusade.[1]
At a time when Popes were using the crusading ideal to further their own political ends in Italy and elsewhere, Edward and King Louis were the last crusaders in the medieval tradition of aiming to recover the Holy Lands.
King Edward I and Queen Consort Eleanor of Castille are the compilers 21st grandparents.[9]
April 1272: Joan of Acre- Cnts. Gloucester.Princess Joan of Acre[10]- Cnts. Gloucester, born April, 1272 in Acre, Palestine. [11] The name "Acre" derives from her birthplace in the Holy Land while her parents were on a crusade.[12] Joan died April 23, 1307 in Austin Friar's, Clare, Suffolk, England. She was the daughter of 2. King of England Edward I (Longshanks) and 3. Eleanor of Cstille, "Cts de Ponthieu". She married (1) Earl/Gloucester3 Gilbert "The Red" 7th Earl de Clare "6th Earl" April 30, 1290 in Westminster Abby, London, England. He was born September 02, 1243 in Christchurch, Hampshire, England/Christchurch, England, and died December 07, 1295 in Monmouth Castle. He was the son of Earl/Gloucester Richard de Clare and Maud de (LACY) LACIE. She married (2) Baron Ralph de MONTHERMER (Earl Gloucester) January 1296/97. He was born in of Tonebrugge, Castle, Kent, England, and died in (35 yrs old).[13]
Birth and childhood:Joan (or Joanna, as she is sometimes called) of Acre was born in the spring of 1272 in Syria, while her parents, Edward I and Eleanor of Castile, were on crusade.[3][14] At the time of Joan's birth, her grandfather, Henry III, was still alive and thus her father was not yet king of England. Her parents departed from Acre shortly after her birth, traveling to Sicily and Spain[4][15] before leaving Joan with Eleanor's mother, Joan, Countess of Ponthieu, in France.[5][16] Joan lived for several years in France where she spent her time being educated by a bishop and “being thoroughly spoiled by an indulgent grandmother.”[6][17] Joan was free to play among the “vine clad hills and sunny vales”[7] [18]surrounding her grandmother’s home, although she required “judicious surveillance.”[8][19][20]
Joan of Acre is the 21st great grandmother of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.

He gave permission to a Jewish merchant named Albert Dionis to settle in the newly founded city of Glückstadt. More Jews followed and in 1628 their rights were formally recognized. By the time Christian passed away in 1648, Jews could have their own cemeteries, hold religious services and enjoyed the protection of the civil law.[24]

Trail and packers path, known as the Turkeyfoot Road. St. Clair had six acres of the tract
cleared in 1772 according to record in tax assessment file. The Commonwealth land
office records show that Peter Livengood obtained warrant for said tract under date 6
February 6, 1775, the date of survey is 30 March 30, 1785, date of patent January 13, 1797, named―Liverpool,‖ area 156 acres.[26]
April 12, 1776
The following bill of sale from Valentine Crawford to John Mintor will show how the business was usually done:
“Know all men by these presents, That I, Valentine Crawford, of the County of West Augusta, in Virginia, for and in consideration of the sum of fifty pounds, lawful money of Virginia, to me in hand paid by John Mintor, the receipt whereof I do hereby acknowledge, and myself therewith fully satisfied, have bargained and sold unto the said John Mintor a certain negro woman named Sall, which said negro woman I, the said Valentie Crawford, will forever warrant and defend to the said John Mintor, his heirs and assigns together with increase. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 12th day of April, 1776.
Then follow the signature of Crawford, the seal, and the acknowledgment.[27]
Valentine Crawford is the 6th great granduncle and John Mintor is the husband of the 1st cousin 7x removed.
April 12, 1776: North Carolina becomes the first Colony to propose independence from England.[28]
April 12, 1777
During the night it rained heavily and in the darkness two ships, Stag and Lively, ran into
one another, which damaged them somewhat, but not seriously…[29]
April 12, 1779: On March 17, 1778, four days after a French ambassador informed the British government that they had officially recognized the United States as an independent nation with the signing of The Treaty of Alliance and The Treaty of Amity and Commerce, England declared war on France directly engaging them in the American Revolutionary War.[9] French entry into the war would lead to further escalation of the war when Spain entered the fight against England as France's ally, after the signing of the Treaty of Aranjuez on April 12, 1779, and again in December 1780 when England declared war on the Dutch Republic after seizing a Dutch merchant ship they claimed was carrying contraband to France during the Affair of Fielding and Bylandt.[11] After the signing of the treaty French supplies of arms, ammunition, and uniforms proved vital for the Continental Army,[7] while their increased presence in the West Indies forced Britain to redeploy troops and naval units away from the North American colonies to secure their holdings in the Caribbean.[9] French involvement in the war would prove to be exceedingly important during the Siege of Yorktown when 10,800 French regulars and 29 French warships, under the command of the Comte de Rochambeau and Comte de Grasse respectively, joined forces with Gen.George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette to obtain the surrender of Lord Cornwallis's Southern army, and effectively bringing an end fighting on the North American mainland for the remainder of the war. Despite efforts by Britain to negotiate separate treaties with their opponents in the American Revolutionary War, Spain, France, and the United States held together during their negotiations with England and concluded hostilities by signing the 1783 Treaty of Paris.[7] [30]
“FORT PITT, April 12, 1782.
“At a board of officers of which Colonel Gibson is president,— to inquire and report their Opinion whether John Eels, an Indian, is guilty of an intention of making his escape to and joining the enemy, and trying to prevail on others to do the same, and also to report their Opinion whether it was not evrdently his intention to discover to the enemy the design of the party under Captain Springer, of which he was to have been one; the board reports to General Irvine as their opinion that John Eels, an Indian, is guilty of an intention of making his escape to and joining the enemy, and also trying to prevail on others to do the same. The board further reports it is their opinion that if he had gone off, Captain Springer and the party under his command must have been discovered and the desigu of the party. The board is of opinion that John Eels ought to suffer death as a traitor. The general confirms the opinion of the board, and directs that John Eels, an Indian, shall be shot to death this day at one o’clock at the foot of the gallows on the bank of the Alleghany river. The major of brigade will see this order executed. A party consisting of one subaltern, one sergeant, one corporal, one drum, one fife, and twenty rank and file, properly armed and accoutred will attend at the execution, to parade at half past twelve.”[31]
“FORT PITT, April 12, 1782.
“Sir:— The nature of the service you go on is such that confining you by particular instructions might defeat the purpose intended.
“In general, however, I wish you to consider yonr command (on account of the smallness of your number) more in the light of an reconnoitering party than èalculated for offensive operations against the enemy. You will, therefore, proceed with great caution; your route first, for thirty or forty miles, inclining up the Alleghany river. Should you not discover any traces of an enemy on that route, you will proceed toward Sandosky, where you will use every prudent means in your power to gain intellegence of the strength and intentions of the enemy; whether any white men are among them; and whether they are regular British troops or refugees, or as they call themselves — “raiders?; “ who now commands at Detroit; what the strength of the garrison, or whether they have received, this spring, reenforcements of men, provisions, etc. The best mode, I think, of obtaining this end would, if practicable, be by capturing one or more white men.
“If you should discover such symptoms of bodies of the enemy being on their march, so large as to endanger any of our posts, or the settlements on the frontier of’ this country, you will either return or send me notice by one of your party o hum? you can confide in, as in your judgment the case may merit. Should you meet a smaller party than your own, I make no doubt you will give a good account of them, provided you can effect it without risk of frustrating your principal object. Given under my hand at Fort Pitt, this 12th day of April, 1782. “Wir. IRVINE, B. Gen’l.

April 12, 1855: Carter Harrison III’s second wife who he married April 12, 1855 was his cousin Sophonisba Grayson Preston, the daughter of William Preston and Hebe Carter Grayson and 7th great granddaughter of Pocahontas. She was born October 27, 1833 and died in September 1876. She bore him ten children six which died in infancy (see below).[34]
April 12-13, 1861: The newly formed confederacy commanded by General P.G.T. Beauregard fires on Federal troops at Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor. The Civil War had begun.[35][36][37]
Some historians consider June 2, 1856 the first true battle of the Civil War.
On June 2, 1856 Brown and 29 others met Henry Pate and fought the battle of Black Jack. This started after Brown's two sons were captured and held prisoner by Pate. The five-hour battle went in Brown's favor and Pate and 22 of his followers were captured and held for ransom. Brown agreed to release them as long as they released Brown's sons.
Town of Black Jack
The town of Black Jack was established in 1855 as a trail town on the Santa Fe Trail. The town became incorporated in 1857 and the threat of border warfare was still a problem in Black Jack. At its peak, Black Jack contained a tavern, post office, blacksmiths, a hotel, general store, doctor's office, schools and two churches but by the end of the Civil War, Santa Fe traffic began to dwindle and soon the town was abandoned.
Legacy
Some historians consider the Battle of Black Jack to be the first true battle of the American Civil War. The “official” event that is cited as the beginning of the war is the attack on Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina, by Confederate troops on April 12, 1861.

The Robert Hall Pearson house near the battle site.
The site of the battle is located near U.S. Highway 56, about three miles (5 km) east of Baldwin City, and is near the designated area of the Robert Hall Pearson Memorial Park[1] by the state of Kansas in honor of one of Brown and Shore's fighters who gave a handwritten account of the battle. Signs are placed throughout the battlesite pointed out where the battle started and ended. Efforts are underway to preserve both the Pearson Memorial Park and the Ivan Boyd Prairie Preserve across the road.[38]
April 12, 1861: Civil War came on April 12, 1861 and for a short time, Quantrill joined General Sterling Price’s Army. In September 1861, the Union Army pushed Price’s army out of Missouri into Arkansas. Quantrill deserted the army and returned to the Morgan Walker farm in Jackson County. He took up again with Andrew Walker and his home guard unit. When Walker quit the group to return to work on his father’s farm he left Quantrill in charge. In December 1861, Quantrill’s Raiders consisted of only fifteen men. On Christmas day, the small gang disbanded for a few weeks and each man returned to his home. In January 1862, Cole Younger joined Quantrill, driven by the murder of his father by a group of Missouri Federal militia. Younger was a slave owner but a staunch supporter of the Union. Soon others found their way into Quantrill’s camp. By February 1862, Quantrill had a sufficient force to raid Independence, Missouri and Aubry, Kansas. His men, mounted on superior horses and better armed than the Union soldiers, caused the Federal cavalry much embarrassment. Nearly captured twice during the ensuring pursuit, his men escaped each time displaying extraordinary bravery and daring. These early adventures gained Quantrill his reputation. He was also beginning to show a streak of brilliance as a guerrilla leader and his name was soon a household word in eastern Kansas and western Missouri.[39]
April 12, 1863: The fleet joined that of General Quimby on the next day about five miles below Helena. There was great difficulty in obtaining serviceable vessels to convey the troops. Four companies under command of Capt. Henderson, of Company A, were put on board of a vessel which had had its smokestacks, wheelhouses and guards raked off in the
Pass. The pilot declared the craft unsafe and refused to go with her. After having been delayed several hours after the departure of the fleet, it was determined to man the boat from the troops on board. Accordingly Willis Vance, a private of Company G,volunteered as pilot, and the boat joined us on the morning of the 14th, having made the trip as soon as any of the fleet. [40]

In February 1865 a new exchange program was finally approved. Men at the Salisbury Prison were divided into two groups in order to be liberated. The largest group consisted of 3729 of the more able-bodied prisoners who were marched to Greensboro, North Carolina and then taken by train to Wilmington, North Carolina to be received by Confederate Major Robert F. Hoke. The second group, containing 1420 of the sickest prisoners was sent to Richmond. The Prison then became a supply depot, but it had no prisoners when on April 12, 1865 (3 days after Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox) Union General George Stoneman arrived in Salisbury to free the Federals. The Prison was burned, the only one recorded as having been destroyed in this manner. A confederate Government flag that once flew over the gates is now housed at the North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh. [47]

Government records indicate about half that many. Salisbury National Cemetery encompassed this mass grave site, now a grassy expanse marked by a head and foot stone for each trench.
In the upper end of the stockade was a spring that supplied the water for theFresh water stream prison. The lower end of the stream was the latrine area. There were also trips made outside the prison to a nearby stream for fresh water. Unaware that bacteria could travel upstream, the rest is history.General George Stoneman

When the South surrendered, Ulysses S. Grant decided that there should be a formal laying down of arms. After three days of preparation, the ceremony took place at Appomattox Court House on April 12, 1865. One Federal soldier recounted a few of the “very witty things” that Lee’s men said as they gave up their guns. “If you kill as many Rebels as you killed Yanks, you will do very well,” remarked one to his weapon. Said another, “Good-bye gun; I am darned glad to get rid of you. I have been trying to for two years.”[49]
April 12, 1865: Union forces commanded by General George Stonemen capture Salisbury, North Carolina, and take over 1700 Confederate prisoners. [50]

April 12, 1899: Abraham Baer Gottlober was a Russian-Hebrew poet and author; born at Starokonstantinov, Volhynia, January 14, 1811; died at Byelostok April 12, 1899. His father was a cantor who sympathized with the progressive movement, and young Gottlober was educated in that spirit to the extent of receiving instruction in Biblical and modern Hebrew as an addition to the usual Talmudical studies.[52]
April 12, 1899
Abraham Baer Gottlober then settled in Dubno with his son-in-law, Bornstein, who was the official rabbi of that town. Thence he removed to Kovno, and subsequently to Byelostok, where the aged poet, who in later years had become blind, ended his days in poverty and neglect. He died April 12, 1899.[53] Avrom Ber Gotlober (January 14, 1811, Starokonstantinov, Volhynia - April 12, 1899, Białystok) was a Jewish writer, poet, playwright, historian, journalist and educator. He mostly wrote in Hebrew, but also wrote poetry and dramas in Yiddish. His first collection was published in 1835.
Gotlober's last name is often transliterated as Gottlober. He was widely known by his initials, ABG, which in Hebrew and Yiddish are the first three letters, alef-bet-giml.
ABG was a maskil, a leader in the haskalah, the nineteenth-century Jewish Enlightenment in Russia and Eastern Europe. While his literary output is no longer widely known, he was important for several reasons:
•As a teacher in the state-sponsored schools for Jews, where he taught and influenced two founders of Yiddish literature: Mendele Mocher Sforim, whom Sholom Aleichem called "the zeyde (grandfather) of us all", and Abraham Goldfaden, the founder of the professional Yiddish theater.
•As a historian who wrote histories of the Karaites (Bikoret le-toldot ha-Karaim) and of the Hasidism and Kabbalah (Toldot ha-Kabalah veha-Hasidut) that are still cited by scholars.
•As a social observer and memoirist, who had the fortune to live long enough to describe the social and political conditions of the 1820s and 1830s for audiences of the 1880s. Scholars widely cite his memoirs (Zikhronot u-masaot, or Memoirs and Travels), his contribution to Sholom Aleichem's Yudishe Folks-Bibliothek, and his articles in his own periodical Ha-Boker Or (The Morning Light) and in other periodicals.

April 12, 1921: On April 12, 1921, a new petition was filed with the county superintendent. Except for excluding 160 acres that had been ceded to the now formally delimited Union No. 1 subdistrict, the boundaries of the proposed district were identical to those in the original proposal. This small tract of land was highly dissected, of low value, and belonged to Catholic families; hence Buck Creekers were glad to be rid of it. They also argued that it gave Union No. 1 enough territory to continue as a subdistrict in what was left of Union School Township (just over seven section), if consolidation passed. The petition contained 88 signatures and was accompanied by an affidavit signed by Harry B. Sill maintaining that the proposed district contained 240 qualified voters, twice as many as had been claimed in the first affidavit because women were now counted as “qualified” to vote. Eighty eight signatures was only ten more than the minimum one third required by law, indicating that proponents were anxious to get the issue back on the ballot as soon as possible.[58]
A delegation of five or six men from the Buck Creek Church, including Cliff Willard, Harry Sill, and “Happy” Stead, filed the petition with the county superintendent’s office in Manchester. Willard was a new convert to the cause of building a consolidated school in Buck Creek. He swung his support over only after Grant assured him that his Catholic neighbors, the Kings and the Britts, would not be forced into the consolidated district. The Kings and Britts owned the 160 acres referred to above that had been ceded to the Union No. 1 subdistrict. The delegation must have been confident of success, because on the train trip to Manchester they stopped in Oneida to examine the consolidated school there and to examine the school wagons used to transport students. Of the consolidated districts in Delaware County, Oneda was the only one that transported almost all its pupils to the school, as would also be the case in any Buck Creek District. On the return trip, after having been assured by County Superintendent Ottlilie that the petition was in proper order and that he would approve it, the delegation noticed some men from the Dufoe and Rose Hill neighborhoods, Catholics all, at the back of the coach. When the Catholic group noticed the Buck Creek delegation, they began talking loudly about the “damned Klansmen” of the Buck Creek Church who were pushing people around trying to get a consolidated school built. Mike Evers, a fiery Irish American with a reputation as a fighter, was in the Catholic group. As told by Willard’s son, “Oh he [Mike Evers] could whip anything he could whip. He was shooting off his mouth about the Klan and the school, that they shouldn’t have it and so on. And so my dad got up and walked back there. He says, “Does that include me?” I don’t know just what Evers said, but he didn’t get up. He knew better. Evers was a fighter, but he wasn’t in my dad’s class. My dad was a big man and about forty three at that time.” While Evers may w2ell have remained seated because of Willard’s size, he was also probably aware that Willard had, at least until recently, been one of the few people in the Buck Creek Church who treated Catholics fairly, even on the consolidated school issue.[59]
April 12, 1929: Mexican rebel General, F.R. Manzo, and his staff are interened after crossing into Arizona. [60]
April 12, 1935: Germany prohibited publishing "not-Arian" writers.[61]
April 12, 1938: The Polish steamer Polonia lands 250 passengers at Tel Aviv, making it the second ship to use the world’s first “Jewish port.”[62]
April 12, 1940: Hans Frank declares that Krakow must be judenfrei (“free of Jews”) by November. By March 1941, 40,000 out of 60,000 Jews have been deported from Krakow.[63]
April 12, 1941(15th of Nisan, 5701): As German troops entered Belgrade, Yugoslavia, a Jewish tailor who spit on the arriving troops was shot dead. Jewish shops and homes in Belgrade were ransacked by both German soldiers and resident Germans.[64]
April 12, 1941: The Germans announced publicly that anyone caught leaving the Lodz Ghetto would be shot.[65]
April 12, 1942: To maintain the deception that all was well and to better control the population, 115,000 of the Jews remaining in Lodz ghetto were told that the 100,000 Jews already deported (and in actuality gassed in Chelmno), were safe and staying in a camp near Warthburcken. Kolo was actually the town near Chelmno.[66]
April 12, 1942: The Germans announce the discovery of a mass grave in The Katyn Forest in Poland, where over 4,000 Polish officers were killed by ythe Soviets.[67]
April 12, 1943: An Anglo-American Conference opens in Bermuda. The conference was supposed to come up with ways of saving European refugees (in reality the Jews of Europe). During the 12 days of meetings it became obvious that the Foreign Office and the State Department would do nothing including relaxing immigration quotas or opening Palestine to Jewish immigrants.[68]
April 12, 1944: ‘Who has made us Jews different to all other people? Who has allowed us to suffer so terribly up till now? It is God that has made us as we are, but it will be God, too, who will raise us up again. . ." From the daily entry of the Diary of Anne Frank[69]
April 12, 1945: 100_5841[70]
April 12, 1945: Franklin D. Roosevelt, thirty second President of the United States dies in office, in Warm Springs, Georgia[71]
April 12, 1945: General Dwight D. Eisenhower, Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Europe, to visit Ohrdruf Concentration camp with Generals George S. Patton and Omar Bradley. After his visit, Eisenhower cabled General George C. Marshall, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, describing his trip to Ohrdruf:
. . .the most interesting--although horrible--sight that I encountered during the trip was a visit to a German internment camp near Gotha. The things I saw beggar description. While I was touring the camp I encountered three men who had been inmates and by one ruse or another had made their escape. I interviewed them through an interpreter. The visual evidence and the verbal testimony of starvation, cruelty and bestiality were so overpowering as to leave me a bit sick. In one room, where they were piled up twenty or thirty naked men, killed by starvation, George Patton would not even enter. He said that he would get sick if he did so. I made the visit deliberately, in order to be in a position to give first-hand evidence of these things if ever, in the future, there develops a tendency to charge these allegations merely to 'propaganda.'
Ohrdruf made a powerful impression on General George S. Patton as well. He described it as "one of the most appalling sights that I have ever seen." He recounted in his diary that
In a shed . . . was a pile of about 40 completely naked human bodies in the last stages of emaciation. These bodies were lightly sprinkled with lime, not for the purposes of destroying them, but for the purpose of removing the stench. When the shed was full--I presume its capacity to be about 200, the bodies were taken to a pit a mile from the camp where they were buried. The inmates claimed that 3,000 men, who had been either shot in the head or who had died of starvation, had been so buried since the 1st of January. When we began to approach with our troops, the Germans thought it expedient to remove the evidence of their crime. Therefore, they had some of the slaves exhume the bodies and place them on a mammoth griddle composed of 60-centimeter railway tracks laid on brick foundations. They poured pitch on the bodies and then built a fire of pinewood and coal under them. They were not very successful in their operations because there was a pile of human bones, skulls, charred torsos on or under the griddle which must have accounted for many hundreds.[72]
April 12, 1945: Vice President Harry Truman was sworn in as President of the United following the death of Franklin Roosevelt. No matter what, Truman will always be a hero among Jews for supporting the U.N. resolution that in effect created the state of Israel and for recognizing the state of Israel at the moment of its birth. He did this in spite of strong opposition from advisors in the Defense and State departments.[73]
April 12, 1945: Canadian troops liberated the Nazi concentration camp Westerbork, Netherlands.[74]

[43] Battle of Fort Pillow, TN. (State Capital Memorial, Austin, TX, February 11, 2012.),
[44] The morning of the 12th brought no respite. At nine o’clock the Lexington collided with the transport Rob Roy, the former staving in her wheel house and launch and damaging her chimneys forcing her to lay to for repairs. (O. R. N., XXVI, 789) But it was not until the Federals neared Blair’s Landing, forty-five miles by water above Grand Ecore, that they received their warmest reception. Confident that the fleet would turn back as soon as the news of Bank’s misfortunes arrived, Taylor had decided to try to cut it off and, if possible, destroy or capture the whole expedition. For this purpose Bagby’s brigade of cavalry was sent out from Mansfield on the 11th. Bagby, however, was delayed in crossing Bayou Pierre because he had no pontoon train, something which Taylor had repeatedly asked headquarters to send him, and by the time Grand Bayou was reached Porter had slipped by. Another attempt at interception was made when Tom Green set out from Pleasant Hill with several regiments of cavalry at 6 P.M. on the 11th. Like Bagby, Green lost considerable time in crossing Bayou Pierre, but finally his men covered the sixteen miles to the Red and appeared on the south bank of the river at and below Blair’s Landing. At about four in the afternoon of the 12th Green got his men into position and opened on the Union boats with musketry and a four-gun field battery. (O. R., xxxIV, Part I, 381, 570-571). The vessels immediately involved were the transports Hastings, which had tied up at the landing to repair her wheel, the Alice Vivian, carrying 400 cavalry horses, which was aground in midstream, and the Emerald and Clara Bell, which were trying to assist the Alice Vivian. Below the latter lay the Osage, also aground, and the transport Black Hawk, which was trying to get the Osage afloat. The Hastings quickly cast off from the landing when the Confederates opened fire. The gunboat Lexington dropped down from a short distance up stream and opened on the enemy battery. The Rob Roy joined in with the four heavy Parrott guns mounted on her bow, and a section of the 1st Missouri Artillery on the Emerald contributed its fire. (O. R. N., XXVI, 49.) The battle continued for about two hours, with Green’s men delivering m,what Commander Thomas O. Selfridge called “the heaviest and most concentrated fire of musketry that I have ever witnessed.” (O. R. N. XXVI, 49.)
