OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, FEB. 9, 1912 BACK III THE 1 I DAYS General Grant's First Great Victory. DONALSON AND HENRY FALL, An Oregon Veteran Reviews History of 50 Years Ago. Id the beginning of the war the fed era! army and navy were mostly en gaged in protecting loyal people who resided on the borders of the disaffect ed states aud whose gymiatmes were warmly in favor of the saccess of the union armies. The nnmerons re verses sustained by tire federal forces convinced the government of the ser ions character of the conflict and the necessity of more vigorous prepara Hons lor the prosecution of the war. Our navy yards were fillnd with work men and recruiting stations for mieui ployed seamen were opened in differ ent sections of the country, where en listments were rapidlv made. In the fall of 1861 Flag Officer Koote was placed in command of the naval fleet being organized at Ca'ro, 111. Daring the winter of 1801-2 Com mo dore Foote and General U. S. Grant planned an expedition against Fort Henry, situated on the Bust bank of the Tennessee river. Gn the morning oi iebroary i the fleet left Gairo aud in a short time were in the vicinity of the objeot of attack, heavy rains had been falling and the river had risen rapidly to an unusual height, The swift running water brought down an unusual amount of drift wood, which oauFed considerable an coyance to our fleet, but the flood that caused trouble to our boats also loosened the torpedo boats of the rebels and they all floated down the stream with the driftwood. Soon the fleet was under way and passed slowly up the stream, allots were soon ex changed between the fleet and the fort. Although the tiring from the fort was terrific the gunboats stead ily advanced and in a short timn Con federate General lighluan surren dered to Commodore Foote. The con federate loss was Ave billed, eleven wounded and seventy-eight, prisoners, the main force, 2600 men, having es oaped to Fort Donelson. The attack on Fort Henry having been successful, the way was now lefc open for an advance on Fort Donelson. Gen, Grant's force at Cairo numbered about 80,000 men, while the rebel force of 15,000. men were strongly entrenched at Donelson under command of John B. Floyd, who had been secretary ot war daring tne aaminiBtration or James tsacliau an. un tne latn or ueoruary there was sharp skirmishing between the ad vance of the union forces aud the fort at which both sides lost about 200 in Killed aud wounded. On the 14th the gunboats arrived and in the afternoon opened fire and had nearly silenced the batteries of the fort when the steering apparatus of two of the larg est boats was shot away and the fleet was forced to withdraw, with a loss of ti men. In the meantime Gen. Grant was making preparations to in vest the fort, when on the morning of February 15 the confederates made a sudden sally, hoping to break through the investment and escape to Nash ville ; but after gaining some ad van tage they were driven tack into their intreuchments by superior numbers. The loss on each side was about 2,000 in killed, wounded and prisoners. During the night the confederate com mander held a council of war in which it was deoidert that the fort must be given up. Gen. Floyd de Glared that he would not surrender himself, saying:. "You know my position with the federals: it would not do. Gen. Pillow insisted on Btill trying to cat their way out; in assy case he would not make the surren der. It was finally decided that Floyd should make over the command to Pillow who should in turn make it over to Bnckuer, and iu the mean time Floyd and Fillow might try and cave their respective commands. About half of these, srrue 2000, boo ceeded in getting across the river and escaped. On the morning of Sunday, Febru arv ie, ueneral Uraut s forces were drawn up ready to assault, when a flag of truoe came from Buckner, who proposed the appoiutruent of corumis Burners to agree upon terms of capita latiou, and asked for an aror slice un til noon for that purpose. Gen. Grant replied: "No terms but an immedi ate and uuconditional surrender. I propose to move immediately upon yourt works. " Geo. Buckner made the following reply to Gen. Grant "Hie overwhelming force of your command compels me, notwithstand ing the splendid success of the confed erate armies of yersterday, to accept the ungenerous and unchivalrous terms you propose." The number ot prisoners was about 13,000, with 48 guns and large quantities of ammu nition, small arms and supplies. The oondutt of Floyd and Pillow was oen- sured by the confederate government and both were suspended front their commands. Gen. Grant received the congratu lations of President Lincoln and there were illuminations and bonfires in many northern cities in honor of the event. .. The Tennessee river was now clear of obstructions as far as Corinth, near which point Albert (Sidney Johnson and Beauregard were massing a large body of confederate troops, and where the great battle of Pittsburg Landing soon followed.
