From the July 21st Mobile (Al) Press Register. From the July 21, 1912, Press Register.
Members of the Withers and Buchanan Survivors Camp No. 675, United Confederate Veterans will be having a bay excursion and picnic to Fort Morgan on Tuesday August 5th, the 48th anniversary of the Battle of Mobile Bay.
Nearly all members were at the battle fighting Farragut from the ramparts of the three lower bay forts: Morgan, Gaines and Powell or from the few Confederate naval vessels.
I always like when I come across a post-war account of things pertaining to it.
