They were captured from US Navy stocks at Norfolk in 1861, rifled and banded by the Confederates, and then left at Fort Caswell after the war. Still, they are interesting to compare to the 42cwt and 51 cwt guns of the same system also at Fort Fisher. I look forward to the day when all of them are on display. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/f93b69c1-87bb-4c76-8c51-395dc788f7b2/IMG_1585.jpg Preserved Artillery -

Though a new ship, Galena with her wooden hull and sail-and-steam propulsion was decidedly old fashioned. Her single 8-Inch Rifle, Number 16, was her only somewhat modern cannon with which she might hope to do more than scratch the paint of an iron or steel ship. Naval History and Heritage Command Photo. Galena was new. However for administrative purposes she was a “repaired” ship dating from the Civil War. Congress was loathe to authorize new ships in this period. Wooden ships rot, and what is considered a good design changed over time. Sometimes a repair was just that, but sometimes it was more cost effective to take a ship to pieces, reuse whatever pieces of wood happed to still be good, and build a new ship in the place of the old. USS Galena was a part of a class of six ships, originally all of very different designs and sizes, which when “repaired” in the late 1870s emerged as six identical vessels. (See Donald L. Canney’s The Old Steam Navy: Frigates, Sloops, and Gunboats, 1815-1885. pg. 151) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/2a5d3c89-c570-4390-aa24-4c1e2472a903/USS+Juniata++September+29+30+1888.jpg Preserved Artillery - The 8-Inch Rifles at the University of Maine - Make it stand out “U.S.S.

The opening shot of the Bombardment of Fort Sumter in 1861 was fired from Fort Johnson. The magazine is the only structure which still stands from the series of fortifications built there over a century and a half. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/1720305456950-0VV2C2QW2IG6ERUIN5F0/Sumter+Columbiad+01.jpg Preserved Artillery - Fort Johnson in 1865 - Make it stand out The Fort Johnson 10-Inch Model 1844 Columbiad (Banded and Rifled) which is now displayed at Fort Sumter.

The roller handspike was used in conjunction with the loop at the back of the Marsilly carriage to aid in running the carriage in or out. The Marsilly carriage had skids in place of rear wheels to aid in transferring the recoil of the cannon via friction to the deck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/0091620d-8f47-4b3a-aa9e-8c294748f292/Officers+and+Marine.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out The ship's senior officers can be seen in the photo.

In an upcoming photo of the inspection aboard ship, the officers will be wearing (or holding) bicorn hats. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/eff10ce4-e214-4c4a-a443-51ab953dd0e4/Possible+Gatling+Gun.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out Up on the quarterdeck, what appears to be a gatling gun may be seen. USS Richmond's logbooks do not appear to have yet been digitized, but USS Kearsarge's logbook for the spring and summer of 1890 list the "Boat Armament" as a "Light Gatling" and 3-Inch BLR Howitzer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/9f071195-2716-45e1-a742-68051e2dad9c/Boat+Rifle.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out I believe the boat howitzer may be seen in this photo. Note that unlike the Dahlgren Boat Howitzers of the 1850s-1860s, ammunition boxes are carried on each side of the tube. Again, USS Kearsarge's logbook for the spring and summer of 1890 list the "Boat Armament" as a "Light Gatling" and 3-Inch BLR Howitzer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/3a1bd54f-e617-4b49-a90e-6943f407ea82/Communion+Table.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out The clergyman who is leading the service stands behind a Communion Table - which only has books upon it (presumably a Bible, Hymnal, and/or Prayerbook).

"Richmond" is carved into a wooden board above the wheel. Again, see the cutlasses and the 9-Inch shot in the shot racks. Notice the brass "cage" above the hatchway leading down to the berth deck - visitors to USS Constitution pass through a similar structure to descend from that ship's spar deck. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/b9f54790-d68c-497b-9a08-cdff45ce45e9/Morpheus.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out Just to be a bit ridiculous: Is that Morpheus from "The Matrix" in the center background of this photo? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/1732160709445-1YU5W6NHAQW864U41CIX/20241105_132212.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out 9-Inch Dahlgren which is believed to have been aboard USS Richmond (likely at the time of the photo).

Note also the metal tracks on the deck, likely showing the position of the 8-Inch MLR. I believe the gunports in this area are larger, too, allowing for the heavy pivot to be fired on a greater bearing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/3e63e97e-ed06-4236-93ed-012ebb5c6aae/Birghtwork+Photo+2.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out The buckets on the starboard side spelling "Richmond" can be seen.

While this painting depicts USS Hartford at Mobile Bay and the perspective is looking aft towards the quarterdeck, the painting illustrates a US Navy Steam Sloop of War in action. USS Richmond is in the painting, following astern of Hartford https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/dbb6535a-5f2f-4c39-83d2-63ff1c90e599/IMG_4065.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out 9-Inch Dahlgren Number 481 at the American Swedish Historical Museum in Philadelphia. I do not know, but I suspect that this "short trunnion" 9-Inch Dahlgren was aboard USS Richmond in 1890. During the war it was carried aboard USS Osceola. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/d78f2ba0-7c7d-4094-bef1-53063d8a26f9/service-pnp-det-4a10000-4a14000-4a14700-4a14700v.jpg Preserved Artillery - Sunday Aboard USS Richmond in 1890 - Make it stand out 'USS Richmond - Sunday Morning Inspection" (Circa 1890). Many comments in the previous photos have asked about the Pith Helmets. Look at all the pith helmets of the US Marines! Officers seen in the Church Service photos can also be seen on deck - including the ship's Captain.

Note the carriage at right. Based on previous photos, I believe this to be the wheel of the ship's light gatling.

Also note the tracks on the deck in the back right of the photo. I believe these tracks are for the 8-Inch Muzzle Loading Rifle mounted as a Pivot Gun. Near the tracks you can see what look like the base of modern, folding metal music stands - is that what they are. The photo is taken by the funnel - the forecastle proper is a little farther forward.

When it was donated to Lambertville, New Jersey circa 1900, it was said to have come from USS Richmond. This is the only weapon aboard which might have been able to make an impression upon the steel hulled ships of the 1880s.

The defenders of the Fort used light cannons like this one to keep the blockaders at bay on the many miles of beaches which stretched north of the fort. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/cd52c0dc-5230-4a0a-933c-78e765da8fee/4+Inch+Blakely.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out This 4-Inch Blakely was captured in the same 1863 Incident north of Fort Fisher as the Whitworth above. It had been displayed in Raleigh until the spring of 2025. It is now at Fort Fisher alongside the Whitworth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/df5ad95a-aa03-49f8-bfb6-b2369db15a31/IMG_4336.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out Likely the most numerous cannon carried by the fleet was the 9-Inch Dahlgren. It was mounted in large numbers on the broadsides of such ships as USS Wabash, USS Minnesota, USS Colorado, and USS Brooklyn. This 9-Inch Dahlgren, preserved in Rollinsford, New Hampshire was carried aboard USS Susquehanna and may have been present at the battle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/bc8ff0ce-1449-44f5-bc25-f31b87a1d976/IMG_1918.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out Another 9-Inch Dahlgren which may have been present at Fort Fisher, this example served aboard USS Brooklyn and is currently displayed at Old Fort Jackson where it stands in for an 8-Inch Columbiad in the fort. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/b5f303ad-78cc-4545-928b-7dc90754fd34/Volume+6+Pg+103++USS+Wabash.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out This page from Volume 6 of the Photographic History of the Civil War displays two pivot cannons of USS Wabash which were at Fort Fisher: a 10-Inch Dahlgren and an 8-Inch US Navy Parrott Rifle. No example of the 10-Inch Dahlgren is known to survive, and though 8-Inch US Army Parrott rifles have been preserved, no Navy 8-Inch Parrotts still exist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/78812ee6-d321-49fd-8f7a-e333caa50fe2/IMG_4484.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out Weighing nearly 16,000 pounds, the 11-Inch Dahlgren was mounted as a pivot on several ships in the fleet, and it formed the primary broadside armament of USS New Ironsides. This example is reported to have been mounted on USS Wabash at some point after the battle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/d9011da2-3be8-43bf-981c-ca3752cbab21/IMG_8796.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out 4.2-Inch (or 30-Pounder) Parrott Rifles were common in the fleet as light pivot guns - especially in smaller ships or those converted from merchant service. This 30-Pounder was not aboard the fleet at the battle, but it was nearby in the sunken wreck of USS Peterholf. It was recovered in the 1970s and put on display at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/c5e01fcd-6e5b-4ee1-a8b4-23c17610184f/Fort+Sumter+Navy+Parrott.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out The 100-Pounder Parrott (or 6.4-Inch Parrott) had its reputation tarnished by the five which burst during the First Battle of Fort Fisher. During the second battle, 100-Pounders were moved to the unengaged side on some ships, while on other ships, especially in situations where their range was needed, they saw active service. This US Navy Parrott was mounted on a US Army carriage in the 1870s at Fort Sumter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/2a334a21-ddff-4056-ae34-9efaf02e5626/IMG_4958.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out While no true US Navy 8-Inch Parrott Rifles are known to exist, this US Army 8-Inch Parrott displayed in Westerly, Rhode Island is nearly identical to those which served as heavy pivots in the fleet at Fort Fisher. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/0d196dfb-c4e3-47da-a2a1-21606fd52364/1280px-1860s_15_inch_Dahlgren_gun_side_HKMCD.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons at Fort Fisher - Make it stand out The 15-inch Dahlgrens mounted in the turrets of the four US Navy monitors present were the largest cannons at the battle - weighing 43,000 pounds and firing shot up to 440 pounds. One of these Dahlgrens burst in the turret of USS Saugus on January 13th without causing significant damage or casualties. This example is on display at the Hong Kong Museum of Coastal Defense. This gun was dredged from the harbor of Hong Kong in the 1980s. It is thought to have been part of the armament of USS Catawba which had been sold to Peru after the US Civil War.

The cannons are recognizable as 8-Inch MLR due to the “concentric rings” on the muzzle face due to the cannon being composed of an inner sleeve, an outer shell, and a ring at the muzzle which held the two pieces together.

Image courtesy of Dr. William Gomez Pretel. In my estimation, this image shows an 8-Inch Rifle - possibly lying inverted upon the sea floor. Note the short trunnion. This cannon seems to be separated from the main debris field. Also, this Dahlgren appears to have the cascabel pin in place. I would very tentatively identify this as a photo of 8-Inch Rifle Number 30 - the aft pivot gun thrown over the side during the initial grounding. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/32445cda-2553-4d88-8849-46df3b19b10e/USS+Kearsarge+Dahlgren+Roncador+Reef+03.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Guns of USS Kearsarge in 1894 - Make it stand out Item near the wreck site of USS Kearsarge. 2015 photo by Nicasio Howard. Image courtesy of Dr. William Gomez Pretel. In my estimation, this image shows a different 8-Inch Rifle than the above photo. Again note the short trunnions. This rifle appears to still have the elevating screw running through the cascabel. The mounting points for the sights may also be visible. The cascabel pin may not be in place. I would again offer the very tentative identification of this cannon as Number 31 - the forward pivot gun. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/f6110cb1-67d9-491f-bebf-113b4e9098a4/USS+Kearsarge+Dahlgren+Roncador+Reef+04.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Guns of USS Kearsarge in 1894 - Make it stand out Item near the wreck site of USS Kearsarge. 2015 photo by Nicasio Howard. Image courtesy of Dr. William Gomez Pretel. This image is thought to be of the same item as the above photo but viewed from the other side. In my estimation, this image shows an 8-Inch Rifle. The photo may (or may not) show the concentric rings of the rifle at the muzzle and the smaller diameter bore in relationship to the entire muzzle face. It is possible that 8-Inch projectiles are also in this photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/e43a6070-5331-4308-8b7e-c6b3c139b169/USS+Kearsarge+Dahlgren+Roncador+Reef+02.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Guns of USS Kearsarge in 1894 - Make it stand out Items near the wreck site of USS Kearsarge. 2015 photo by Nicasio Howard. Image courtesy of Dr. William Gomez Pretel. I believe this image shows at least three 9-Inch Dahlgrens. At least two of them seem to have the longer trunnions consistent with the 9-Inch Dahlgrens photographed in 1890. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/90ef21ec-d306-4470-9620-63765d7bba46/Roncador+Bank+-+Map+in+Proceedings.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Guns of USS Kearsarge in 1894 - Make it stand out Map of Roncador Bank as found in the October 1894 issue of Proceedings. https://archive.org/details/proceedingsofuni1894unit/page/680/mode/2up https://www.santee1821.net/preserved-artillery/the-8-inch-muzzle-loading-rifle-of-lambertville-new-jersey monthly 0.5 2025-12-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/01fd0076-c366-46d5-96ac-945975325b2b/20241105_130124.jpg Preserved Artillery - The 8-Inch Muzzle Loading Rifle of USS Richmond in Lambertville, New Jersey - Make it stand out A US Navy 8-Inch Muzzle Loading Rifle is displayed at Mary E.

This is one of a series of photos taken aboard Richmond - likely all on a Sunday 1889 or 1890. The photos are a fascinating glimpse into life aboard an old sailing ship of the US Navy at the end of the 19th Century. The cannon now in New Hope may well be one of the cannons seen in this photo, but the Lambertville cannon is likely blocked from view by the mast and smokestack.

USS Atlanta was built at Delaware River Iron Ship Building and Engine Works in Chester, Pennsylvania. Until Atlanta and the other steel-hulled ships of the “Squadron of Evolution” entered service in the late 1880s, it was up to wooden relics like USS Richmond to represent the US Navy on the ocean. Whereas USS Richmond and other ships of the 1850s had been primarily sailing ships with an auxiliary steam engine, USS Atlanta and her sisters were primarily steam ships which carried a small (for their size) sailing rig that was intended to help extend their cruising range. In practice, the sails were too small relative to the size of the ship, and by the 1890s the sails were gone. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/3c5c5599-164b-4cd3-a680-8e12aa7bef8a/NH+57414.jpeg Preserved Artillery - The 8-Inch Muzzle Loading Rifle of USS Richmond in Lambertville, New Jersey - Make it stand out Whereas USS Richmond’s 8-Inch Rifle was made of cast-iron and wrought iron, loaded from the muzzle, and moved by human arms pulling on ropes, USS Atlanta’s forward 8-Inch Rifle (shown here) was far longer, heavier, and more powerful. It was built entirely of steel. It was moved with gearing, its recoil was absorbed by hydraulic cylinders, and it was loaded from the breech. https://www.santee1821.net/preserved-artillery/the-cannons-of-freeport-the-trubia-rifle-and-hartfords-parrott monthly 0.5 2024-11-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/e5470975-ff1c-4df8-beac-1b17574a9a73/IMG_5530.jpg Preserved Artillery - The Cannons of Freeport: The Trubia Rifle and Hartford’s Parrott - Make it stand out The “Trubia Rifle” - an 8-Inch Muzzle Loading Rifle produced at Trubia in Spain in 1874.

Prone to catastrophic failure, no less than five of these cannons exploded upon firing during the first battle, killing and wounding gun crew sailors.” Note the grooves cut by the rifling into the brass base of the 100-Pounder shell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/2ebaeb7d-9295-441e-bc81-03b43bc47926/Table+A+-+Parrotts+in+Service.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/a949160d-8baf-4346-bae3-4e0520dab87a/Table+B+-+Parrotts+Burst+in+USN+Service.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/8ad4a243-905f-4e7b-8187-328e77246961/Table+C+-+Record+of+Bursting+of+Parrotts.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/4c6a26f3-bb09-42da-a945-44cd03335f89/IMG_1217.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Two 10-Pounder (2.9-Inch) Parrott Rifles displayed at the Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/0d99d116-5a28-4426-8195-4589a62eb6bd/IMG_4367.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out One of three US Navy 20-Pounder (3.67-Inch) Parrott Rifles displayed in South Berwick, Maine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/d5db32d2-b67a-4805-9808-0fba6e873957/New+Jersey+Parrott+Rifles.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Four US Navy 30-Pounder (or 4.2-Inch) Parrott Rifles displayed at the Battleship New Jersey Museum and Memorial in Camden, New Jersey https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/890cc16f-e5a4-4e99-be91-d31c66a2005a/IMG_4292.jpg Preserved Artillery - “Report on Rifled Guns” - 1865 Report on Parrott Rifles by the US Navy Bureau of Ordnance - Make it stand out Two US Navy 60-Pounder (or 5.3-Inch) Parrott Rifles displayed in Laconia, New Hampshire.

The front sight (with a small vertical blade that appears to be missing on Monitor’s front sight) can be seen mounted on the block above the trunnions. The rear sight can be seen mounted on the block in front of the elevating screw. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/6452bc45-0aab-47ab-8687-885f44a36452/IMG_0652.jpg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out Front sight for USS Monitor’s 11-Inch Gun No. 27 at the USS Monitor Center at the Mariners’ Museum at Newport News, Virginia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/89210fa0-6a40-4947-983a-f47a5d6daa96/IMG_0649.jpg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out Rear sight for USS Monitor’s 11-Inch Gun No. 27. Note the graduations on the sight - presumably to adjust the range in yards. The sight was mounted to a brass piece which fit over the mounting block. (This mounting piece from Monitor’s other Dahlgren may be seen in Drachinifel’s video on USS Monitor.) Also in this photo is the hammer - note how the hammer attaches in the USS Hunchback photo. The fuse would be for an 11-Inch shell. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/9e353923-88ff-4f91-8f8e-e7eaf9af681c/IMG_7222.jpg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out 9-Inch Dahlgren which belonged to USS Southfield and later CSS Peedee is displayed in Florence, South Carolina. Note the mounting point for the rear sight, the hammer, and the front sight. Two holes for the front sight to be screwed into the mounting block can be seen. More photos of the guns of CSS Peedee. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/dd2a882c-3aaf-4f7b-89de-4f84e57bd69c/IMG_4544.jpg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out Similar view of USS Keokuk’s 11-Inch Dahlgren as displayed at White Point Garden in Charleston, South Carolina. This Dahlgren is likely very similar to the Dahlgrens of USS Monitor. Again note the two screw holes in the front mounting block.

The cascabel was also broken off rendering the cannon unable to use the elevating screw and likely making using a breeching rope difficult. This Dahlgren was subsequently used as part of the armament of CSS Virginia and was further damaged when a shot from USS Cumberland struck its muzzle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/b66180c7-07da-4f71-8688-fb1fc5443433/Dahlgren+Tools.jpeg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out Returning to the USS Hunchback photo, you can see the roller handspike upon the deck near the forward wheel of the Marsilly carriage. The Marsilly carriage had only two trucks (wheels). The rear of the carriage had skids to absorb recoil through the friction of the skids. Running the gun out necessitated the use of the roller handspike. Also visible on the deck are the rammer, the sponge used to extinguish any remaining embers after the cannon discharged, and 9-Inch shot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/9bd2cc2b-8625-4768-a1e5-ac40c7cae25a/IMG_0384.jpg Preserved Artillery - Aiming a Dahlgren: The Gunnery Artifacts of USS Monitor and USS Cumberland - Make it stand out The Hampton Roads Naval Museum in Norfolk, Virginia displays artifacts from USS Cumberland.

I imagine that the (relative) grandeur of this existing home contributed to the frustration of the Regulators when Tryon wanted a far grander house built in New Bern - what became “Tryon Palace.” https://www.santee1821.net/preserved-artillery/xv-inch-dahlgren-in-hong-kong monthly 0.5 2024-11-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/74f405a4-a991-4df1-8d2a-c7a7eb5b3e40/Monitor__Mahopac__on_the_Appomattox_River%2C_1864.jpg Preserved Artillery - XV-Inch Dahlgren in Hong Kong! - Make it stand out Monitor USS Mahopac, sister ship to USS Catawba, on the Appomattox River, 1864. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/0d196dfb-c4e3-47da-a2a1-21606fd52364/1280px-1860s_15_inch_Dahlgren_gun_side_HKMCD.jpg Preserved Artillery - XV-Inch Dahlgren in Hong Kong! - Make it stand out 15-inch Dahlgren on display at the Hong Kong Museum of Coastal Defense.

Note the very gradual narrowing from the breech to the muzzle. Note the bands called “reinforces” which are part of the cast and which were thought to help strengthen the gun. Note the pronounced muzzle swell thought to strengthen that area of the gun.

This shows the arrangement of the two Dahlgren guns in this class. At left is an 11-inch Dahlgren. At right is a 15-inch Dahlgren. The gun ports on the Passiac class had not been designed with the huge 15-inch in mind. The gun was actually fired from completely inside the turret. A “smoke box” was built inside the turret into which the muzzle was run to fire the gun.

This gun has an iron pivot mounting, of a type adopted after the Civil War. Mounted on the right side of the gun carriage, just behind the gun trunnion, is a plaque bearing the name Winslow, after Kearsarge's commanding officer in 1864, Captain John A. Winslow.

In service less than a decade after the guns of Lancaster (and perhaps designed a bit earlier), the design of the mounting is interesting to me. In some ways (recoil cylinder, central pivot) it shows significant development, but in other ways (gearing, wheels and cranks) it doesn't look so different. https://www.history.navy.mil/content/history/nhhc/our-collections/photography/numerical-list-of-images/nhhc-series/nh-series/NH-55000/NH-55126.html https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/661a96d42ce31d63c17854b0/f2b60281-02a7-445d-88f5-07d9738d92d1/IMG_8671.jpg Preserved Artillery - 8-inch Dahlgren Rifles at Patriot’s Point - Make it stand out Front Blade Sight on one of the Dahlgrens.
