After a fatal training accident six weeks before, the experimental Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley, 40 feet long with a crew of eight using hand cranks for propulsion, was raised and had resumed its trials in Charleston Harbor for use against the Union blockade.  Disaster again struck, though, when the vessel failed to surface, drowning all aboard, including its designer, H.L. Hunley. The Hunley was raised and did carry out a successful attack the following February but was lost, finally this time, with all hands.  (by John Osborne) 

The experimental Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley, forty feet long with a crew of eight using hand cranks for propulsion, was in Charleston Harbor for use against the Union blockade.  An operational error during trials caused her to dive with the hatches open and she sank swiftly, drowning five crewmen.  The Hunley was raised and did carry out a successful attack the following February but was lost, finally this time, with all hands.  (By John Osborne) 

After spreading panic through parts of Indiana, Confederate raider General John Hunt Morgan had led his men into Ohio twelve days before. Union forces were closing in however, and his command forced to fight a series of skirmishes over several days.  After defeat at Salineville, he and much of his weary command were captured in Columbiana County, Ohio by Union troops under General James Shackleford.  (By John Osborne)

After spreading panic through parts of Indiana, Confederate raider General John Hunt Morgan led his men into Ohio where he continued to tear up railroads and destroy government and civilian installations.  This proved to be an over-reach and less than two weeks later, he and much of his weary command were captured in Columbiana County, Ohio.  (By John Osborne)
