*BRASHEAR CITY, LA.
JUNE 23RD, 1863
Brashear City, La., June 23, 1863. Detached forces under
command of Maj. Robert C. Anthony of the 2nd Rhode Island
Cavalry. For some time the enemy had been threatening the
post at Brashear City. When Lieut.-Col. Albert Stickney, of
the 47th Mass. infantry, withdrew the greater part of the
forces there on the 2Oth the action at La Fourche Crossing, it
gave the Confederates an opportunity too good to be
overlooked. On the evening of the 22nd Maj. Hunter, with
about 325 men of Baylor's Texas cavalry, rowed in skiffs from
the mouth of Bayou Teche to a position in the rear of the
city. About 5:30 on the morning of the 23rd he was within 800
yards of the Union lines. About the same time the
Confederates commenced a spirited bombardment of the place
from the Valverde battery across the bay. The attack from both
sides seems to have disconcerted Maj. Anthony, who
doubtless believed the land forces in the rear to be much
larger than they really were, and he surrendered without
offering any resistance. Some of the 1st Ind. heavy artillery
stationed there acted without orders and put up a gallant
fight until notified that the place had surrendered. The
number of prisoners taken was about 1,000 (accounts differ)
and there fell into the hands of the enemy 11 heavy guns,
about 2,500 stands of small arms, a large number of wagons and
tents, and a supply of ammunition. The prisoners were
paroled. In killed and wounded the Union forces lost about 75
and the Confederates 21.
