Well, As It Turns Out, I Had Heard of The USS Canandaigua

Yesterday, I posted about this ship capturing a blockade runner named the Secesh off Charleston, S.C., on May 15, 1863, 155 years ago.  I mentioned that I had not heard of this ship before.  It turns out that I had already written about it one time.

This was the ship that rescued the crew of the USS Housatonic after it was sunk by the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley.
