APRIL 12TH, 1865: Commander Bulloch, Confederate naval agent in England, wrote Secretary Mallory that wherever possible, he had ordered all work on naval accounts stopped and that he intended to transfer the remainder of his outstanding balance to the account of the Confederate Treasury Department.
Like the Confederate government itself, after a long and gallant effort, the Southern Navy was going out of existence.
