From the January Wilmington (NC) Star-News.
Captain H.S. Lebby skippered the blockade runner Little Hattie, considered the best runner in service as it left Charleston Harbor, South Carolina. It made more successful runs than any other runner. When Lee surrendered, the ship was safe at a dock in Nassau.
Lori Sanderlin of the North Carolina Maritime Museum at Southport presented a talk "Finding Post-War Confederate Sailor H.S. Lebby, Blockade-Runner and Privateer" at the February 5 meeting of the Round Table at Hatch Auditorium at Caswell Beach, North Carolina.
