In Louisiana, Confederate raiders capture a convalescing Union general outside Port Hudson

Brig-General Neal Dow, a famous temperance advocate and former mayor of Portland, Maine volunteered for service in 1861, aged 57, and led a brigade outside Port Hudson during the siege.  Wounded in the leg and arm during the failed assault of May 27, 1863, he was recovering at a private house nearby. Confederate cavalry heard of his whereabouts and late at night five men of the Arkansas Cavalry spirited him away.  He spent eight months as a prisoner and was exchanged on March 14, 1864 for Robert E. Lee's son Rooney Lee. (By John Osborne)

Afro-Creole Captain Andre Cailloux falls at the head of his troops in the attack on Port Hudson

Captain André Cailloux  was a former slave who had become a businessman and leader of the free black population in New Orleans, Louisiana before the war.  He began his military career in the Confederate "Native Guard" organized as a showpiece in the city. After the fall of New Orleans, he led a company in the Union's First Louisiana Native Guard and fell at the head of his men in the failed May 27, 1863 assault on Port Hudson, one of the first black United States Army officers to die in action. He was thirty-eight years old and became a legend in New Orleans. (By John Osborne)
