Datiles Fought In Georgia After General
lee Surrendered At Appomattox
By CUS BERND, Historical Assistant,
Office of Secretary of State
On April 16, 1865 (Easter Sunday), one week
after Lee had surrendered to Grant at Appomattox,
two_important battles occurred on Georgia and
Alabama soil along the Chattahoochee—the Battles
of Columbus and West Point. In one of these en
gagements —the Confederates were outnumbered
60-1. Sixly-lour Confederates held a fort all day
against 3,750 Union men. The news of General Lee’s
surrender had not reached them.
Columbus had escaped the fighting until this late
phase of the war. Finally, Federal troops command
ed by General James Wilson attacked Confederates
led by General Howell Cobb at the bridge over the
Chattahoochee before Columbus. After brave at
tempts to hold the bridge and their positions, the
Confederates there were forced by an overwhelm
ing superiority of numbers to withdraw and give
up the city. Much property at Columbus was de~
stroye: by the Union troops and about 1,200 pris
oners and 50 guns were taken.
At Ihe same time that General Wilson was taking
Colurbus, a brilliant display of heroism was going
on up the river on the north sideb of West Point.
A brigade of Federal troops under Colonel O, H.
LaGrange, of Fon Du Lac, Wisconsin, a detachment
cent ¢ff from General Wilson's cavalry corps, at
tacke¢ Confederates under General Robert C. Tyler
of Memphis, Tennessee. These Confederates were
defencing Fort Tyler, protecting the town of West
Point. General Tyler was killed about the middle of
the da-: and was succeeded in command by Colonel
James H. Fannin, who had hastened to the assist
ance of the garrison upon learning of the approach
ol the Federals. According to Colonel LaGrange, the
fort was “a remarkably strong bastioned earthwork
35 yards sguare, surrounded by a ditch 12 feet
deep, s.tuated on a commanding eminence protected
by an imperfect abatis and mounting two 32-
poundérs and two field guns.” It held out until
about sundown when its ammunition was gone and
its brave defenders exhausted. e
The story is told and authenticated by an account
of Colonel Fannin that General Tyler’s refusal to
abandon the fort prior to the engagement and to
attempt to escape was due to a promise made to the
ladies of West Point who had just presented him
with & Confederate flag. Fannin, in an account of
1896 which was carried in The Atlanta Journal,
quotes Tyler as having said, “Well, when the
ladies of West Point presented me with that flag
(looking at it flying above the fort) I swore, in
accepting it, that I would die under its folds before
1 would surrender it.” The promise was heroically
carried out.
Colonel Fannin asserts that General Tyler under
estimaied the forces of the enemy confronting him;
and the point seems well taken. A
The Fedeval attackers began their investment of
West Point early on the day of the battle, and grad
ually closed in upon the fort. The fighting raged
fiercely {rom about 11 a. m. to about 6 p. m. When
the ammunition was gone and surrender inevita
ble, the rope attached to the flagstaff had been cut
by enemy fire and the flag could not be lowered to
indicate surrender. A white handkerchief was tied
to the ram-rod of a musket and raised over the
fort to give the signal for surrender. A cease fire
was carried out by the Confederates at the time.
When the Federals entered, Colonel Fannin tried to
save General Tyler’s watch; but it was taken by a
Yankee coldier and never returned. The Federal
conrmander, Colonel LaGrange, was amazed when
he found out that only 64 men had held back his
entire brigade throughout the day. There may have
been as many as 20 Confederate casualties in all;
and Colonel Fannin listed five known by him to
have been killed.
Colone! Fannin gives an interesting appraisal of
the battle:
“When it is cooly, calmly and dispassionately
considered, that 64 men indiscriminately thrown
together, without proper arms, consisting of re
jected single barrelled muskets and even shotzuns
held in check a command of 3,750 splendidly
equipped men armed with the most modern im
proved guns and best artillery, with the latest in
vented projectiles, some of their arms shooting 16
times without reloading, with almost 60 U. S.
soldiers to every Confederate, and about 16 times
better weapons, it does seem that those men really
and trul.y showed bravery of the very highest type
ever evinced by man.” "
There is evidence that additional Confederates
who were enroute to West Point were among the
prisoners captured in the vicinity, If included, they
would raise the total of Coniederates higher than
the 64 given by Colonel Fannin as having fought at
the fort. But whether these were involved in the
battle or not is quite incidental. It is reality that on

Abraham Lincoln Was Also
« e I
Belittled, Ridiculed §
It was difficult for the “big” men of his day ot
recognize in Lincoln the abilities that came to mark
him as a statesman of the first quality. Because of
his ungainly personal appearance he was called a
“pbaboon” and he was often derisively referred to as |
an uncouth, simple-minded country Yawyer, who
was not fit to be President. 1
Then, too, his critics said Lincoln told too many
jokes. He often made his points with an anecdote,
or a good story from his vast fund and this irri
tated his castigators. He was condemned for not
holding up the dignity of his high office. He engaged
in too much levity, they said, and was just a little
cross-roads story-teller, who ought to have been
occupying his tinmie on a cracker barrel swapping
yarns with the yokelry, instead of trying to per
form the duties of Chief Magistrate of one of the
world’s most powerful nations. |
In 1864, only one or two members of his own
Republican Party in Congress enthusiastically fav
ored Lincoln’s re-nomination. Members of his
party, which was in control of Congress, did not
give him wholehearted support in conduct of the
war. For instance, Lincoln advocated a change in
the draft act that would make it operate more
fairly and obtain more mren for the army, but it was
defeated in Congress. The members of Congress, as
some of them do today, demanded that the war be
brought to a speedy end but they voted against}
measures designed to accomplish that purpose. |
Remindful of the attacks upon Lincoln for his
joke-telling and similar “indignities” is the criti
cism of Truman for his letter-writing and use of
common expressions distatsteful to the fastidious.
Before Lincoln’s renomination at Baltimore in 1864
the New York Herald did its best to attach infamy
to Lincoln as a jester: “a joke incarnated, his elec
tion a very sorry joke, and the idea that such a
man as he should be the President of such a coun
try as this a very ridiculous joke. That was a fine
joke,” the Herald continued, “when he removed
General Fremont (afterward nominated for the
Presidency by the radical Republicans against Lin
coln but withdrawing from the race before election
time) on the very eve of victory, and allowed
Price’s army to escape. That was another fine joke
‘when he held back McDowell, and permitted the
Peninsula army to be cut to pieces. That was still
another brave joke when he removed McClellan
(who became the Democratic candidate for Presi
dent against Lincoln and was defeated) after the
triumph of Antietanmy, and so brought about the
massacre at Fredericksburg and the subsequent in
vasion of the North. The people do not appreciate
these stupendous military jokes, however. Perhaps
the loss of life and property takes away some of the
fun. Nevertheless, we are assured that somebody
laughs at them—down below.”
Newspaper and other critics of Lincoln, and there
were many of great influence, continuously la
mented over the “lack of leadership” in Washing
ton, which also brings to mind what some of them
are saying now.
.
50-50 Seems Par For Oil Course
Pattern for the 50-50 oil royalty arrangement now
being discussed by Iranian government and Anglo-
Iranian Oil Company, which has had concession
there, was first worked out in Venezuela. Anrerican
oil companies gave the Venezuelan government this
kind of a deal, after they had pulled out of Mexico
when it nationalized oil holdings.
Earlier this year the 50-50 principle was applied
to the deal between U. S. oii companies and Saudi
Arabian government, Any royalty arrangement less
than this will now have difficulty in being accepted.
Importance of getting satisfactory settlement of
Iranian oil dispute can’t be overlooked in Amer
ica. While most of Iran’s oil goes to Europe, it is an
important part of world production. As one oil
company executive puts it, “If the west should lose
Iran’s oil production, gas rationing would have to
go into effect the next afternoon.”
Leve That Feudin’
Leve [hat Feudin
Air Force and Naval Aviation are again reported
feuding up. This time it's over who will get the first
atomic energy-powered airplane. It is still a long
way in the future, The land-based pilot model
atomic engine has not been completed as yet. But
there are some indications that the first air-borne
model will have to be a sea plane.
Naval Aviation has complete control over sea
plane development, under the Joint Chiefs of Staff
separation of functions. And the Air Force boys
who have had a primary interest in atomic-pow
ered plane development, are showing signs of
jealousy. '
If we are going to place restraints and regulations
on the worker and on the employer, then the gov
ernment ought to practice the same restraint.—
Rep. Charles A. Halleck (R.-Indiana).
I fear communisnr in this country more than in
other countries,—Senator Kenneth McKellar (D.-
Tennessee).
I don’t believe we have enough people who have
developed enough individuality to make a democ
racy.—Architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
The principle of diversity in unity is essential if
we are to allow for “fresh movements of the spirit.”

“T never could rip off any yard

“Then they said I was ready for
