United Daughters Of The Confederacy
The March meeting of The United
Daughters of the Confederacy was
held at Evergreen Baptist Church
with Misses Marion and Mary Kate
Allen as hostess. Mrs. Clestial
Col well presided. A report of IS
books read was given.
Mrs. Mary Blackburn presented
the program entitled "Submarine
Hunley." She recounted that the
25-foot craft, owned by private
parties, was built for the profitable
business of sinking enemy vessels as
prizes. She sailed under orders of
Gen. B.G.T. Beauregard, comman
der of Charleston's defenses.
One night the sub lay at her
Charleston berth, the crew below
wedged so .tightly that no one could
pass. Lt. Payne stood forward rtady
to pull down the hatch when the
wake of a passing steamer washed
over the deck, swamping the
Hunley and sending her to the
bottom. Payne wriggled out the open
*
hatch but was the only survivor.
In another trial she lost a second
crew of volunteers, with Lt. Payne
and two others crawling from the
hatch to safety. Beauregard's faith
was revived by the arrival of Horace
Hunley, himself, who begged to be
allowed to try again. One diving test
was successful, but on Oct. 15, 1863,
Hunley went down to his death with
a fresh crew. The Hunley lay with
her bow deep in mud at 35 degrees.
Hunley had his hand over his head as
if trying to raise the hatch against
heavy pressure. An unlighted candle
was in his left hand. A messenger to
Beauregard reported that still
another crew had been lost in the
experimental coffin. g
Though her location is known, she "
has evaded modern di\ i rs and still
rests on the bottom of Charleston
harbor ? by 50 years the first
successful submarine, and until
World War II, the only American sub
to sink an enemy vessel.
