Synopsis

Excerpt from Record of the Confederate Sailor, Vol. 1: Devoted to the History of the Confederate Navy and Those Who Served in It; January, 1925

On January 25, the 'shenandoah' went up the Hobson Bay, and anchored off Mel bourne. The arrival of a Confederate ves sel had been telegraphed up from the heads where the pilot had been taken on board. Crowded steamboats, tugs, and sailboats came down to meet her. And the sensation was immense. On communication to the Governor, Sir Charles Darling, and await ing his reply, no itors were allowed on board. By next afternoon the crowd became so great and then importunities so urgent, orders were given to admit them. That evening permission was received from the Governor to repair Ship, but at the same time requested the captain to state the na ture of the repairs needed, so thatthe length of time necessary for them might be known. Captain W'addell replied that he would call upon Sir Charles Darling at the Govern ment House next day, the twenty-eighth, at twelve noon. Punctually at the appointed hour the captain with three of his officers presented themselves, but the Governor was out.
