Lt. Col. Paul François Joseph Bernard De Gournay – [Plot H-08; Unreadable] ADOPTED
Well-born Lt. Col. Paul François de Gournay
was
the South's adopted 'marquis in gray.'
By
Mauriel Joslyn
In the pitch-black hours
of March 14, 1863, the U.S. ironclad Essex made her first attempt to run the
Confederate river batteries at Troth's Landing on the Mississippi River, three
|
|
miles below the Port
The action at Troth's
Landing was the first engagement with Federal forces that the 12th had seen
since being assigned to Port Hudson nearly nine months earlier. Transferred
from the Richmond theater, de Gournay arrived at Port
Hudson to do what he and his battery did best-- build and defend
fortifications.
Born into privilege in
Brittany, France, as a marquis, de Gournay spent his
early manhood in Cuba as a manager of his father's vest sugar plantations. In
1851 he became involved in the failed fight for Cuban independence that led to
the execution of the insurgents. Under those circumstances, the young marquis
left Cuba, choosing the familiarity of French New Orleans as his new home.
Louisiana proved a
successful choice for de Gournay. He acquired land in
the sugar cane region and served as editor of the Picayune in 1860. On the eve
of war his estate in New Orleans was valued at $100,000. The marquis married,
aged 33 and found himself comfortably situated in the city's ruling Creole
society, which counted many transplanted Frenchmen like himself among its
elite.
War fever reached New Orleans
with Abraham Lincoln's call for troops, and Louisiana cast her lot with the
Confederacy in January 1861, amid mass cheers and a call to arms. Troops
immediately occupied Forts Jackson and St. Philip at the mouth of the
Mississippi, and de Gournay resigned his newspaper
position to enlist. "I went to [Ft. Jackson] as quartermaster to the
Orleans Artillery," he wrote. That was the modest beginning of his
military career in the Confederate Army. He saw in the cause of Southern
independence the same principles that had led him to fight for Cuba.
De Gournay's
chance for military recognition came when he heard that the legislature had
voted for the formation of four companies of artillery. A subordinate officer,
J.W. Minnich, described the inexperienced troops'
first drill and the commander who led them: "Oh yes! We made an imposing
array when drawn up in line on parade or on drill, and it was some drilling we
were subjected to, believe me, and we became most proficient in the handling of
our muskets and in the Zouave tactics, which were
quite different in some respects from the Hardee or Upton tactics of the time.
French was the official language, and the French as a nucleus made the task of
getting us into shape easier than if we had had only English speakers. Our
captain, de Gournay, spoke both languages, and was
the most kindly, patient, considerate, and lenient of men. I shall always
revere his memory. A strict disciplinarian, he was always as just to his men as
a man can be."
De Gournay
was proud of his well-drilled battalion, and once his troops were whipped into
shape he had high hopes for reaching the front. "I made immediate
application for a captaincy, and proceeded to form a company, many members of
the Orleans Battalion enlisting with me," he wrote. "We were soon
relieved by another command, and I resumed to New Orleans with nearly a full
company of drilled artillerists, expecting to get my commission and go on
active service without delay. I was mistaken. A young lawyer, with no military experience,
but being the grandson of a Revolutionary hero, wished to raise a company. The
cool alternative was offered me to join this gentleman as his first lieutenant,
my men forming the nucleus of his company, or to receive a commission as
captain of a second company, but I promptly refused both."
De Gournay
considered the incident an insult, and that prickly attitude was a marked trait
of the man. His Gallic sense of pride and fair play would assert itself over
and over during the war.
As de Gournay was about to disband his company, which he himself
had equipped for $10,000, friends dissuaded him. A fellow countryman, Colonel
Alfred Coppens, then approached de Gournay with an offer. Coppens
had just received authorization to raise a battalion of infantry, outfitted in
the uniform of the French Zouaves, the first
officially raised by the fledgling Provisional Army of the Confederate States. Coppens asked de Gournay to join
him, and the Orleans Independent Artillery left New Orleans in March 1861,
bound for Pensacola, Fla.
De Gournay
was disappointed at being assigned to an infantry regiment as light artillery.
But the opportunity meant action, and as every company commander in Louisiana
was pulling political strings to get sent to Virginia, at least Pensacola was a
stepping stone.
Upon arrival in Florida,
under the command of General Braxton Bragg, de Gournay
was informed that light infantry was not entitled to a battery of artillery.
Disappointment loomed again, but since the young men were trained artillerists,
Bragg (himself a former artilleryman) instead assigned them to construct and
man fortifications at Warrington Harbor. The assignment was carried out so well
that it won de Gournay and the Orleans Independent
Artillery a coveted transfer to Virginia, to be placed under the command of
Brig. Gen. John Magruder at Yorktown.
Their arrival was timely
just as Maj. Gen. George McClellan's invasion of the peninsula was repulsed. Magruder, too, was a stroke of luck. As a former artillery
officer, he saw a capable and highly efficient officer in the person of Captain
Paul François de Gournay. Through Magruder's
influence, de Gournay was awarded a majority and then
was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and the Orleans Independent Artillery
became the 12th Louisiana Heavy Artillery under its new commander. Its services
not needed in Richmond, the unit, consisting of four companies, was dealt an
ace in the fortunes of war and was sent to Port Hudson, La.
The garrison town on the
Mississippi River was fortified as an outpost of the more important center of
Vicksburg, which commanded the river and kept supply lines open.; Between Port
Hudson and Vicksburg, cattle, food and provisions poured in from Texas to the
blockaded Confederacy, making the Union occupation of New Orleans ineffective.
Troth's Landing had been
a victory for the 12th Louisiana Heavy Artillery. The bluff accomplished its
purpose, and Essex fumed tail and headed back downriver to New Orleans. Years
later, de Gournay was amused to read that Union
commander William D. Porter had reported finding Port Hudson "strongly
fortified."
Due to such
miscalculations of the garrison's strength, a tremendous Union offensive was
planned against Port Hudson in April 1863, consisting of both land and water
forces under the command of Union Maj. Gen. Nathaniel Banks, with a troop
strength of over 30,000 men. At the same time the Union was building up
strength against Port Hudson, the Confederate forces inside the fortress were
given orders to evacuate, moving the troops to Vicksburg. Only 4,200 men
remained in the trenches designed for 22,000. Among the last to leave was the
garrison's commander, Brig. Gen. Franklin Gardner. Just as he rode out, he
received word that Banks was on the way with land forces and Farragut had been
sighted on the river with a fleet of gunboats. Gardner hastened back, and the
garrison's fate was sealed. They must hold Port Hudson.
De Gournay's
assignment was to do what he and his battalion did best, to work on
fortifications and man the river batteries. He began by modifying the works,
contracting the eight miles of defenses and taking advantage of good natural
defensive ground to reduce the length of the port's trenches to 4 ˝
miles. This was still too much to man with only 4,000 effectives. The river
batteries consisted of only 19 heavy guns, including two Columbiads,
one howitzer, one 42-pounder, and one 12-pounder rifled piece affectionately
known as "the Baby." The remainder were mostly smoothbore 24-pounder Parrotts.
De Gournay
held the left wing of the river defenses with 15 guns. His position was the
hardest hit by the Union gunboat batteries. The total weight of metal that
could be hurled upon an attacker at one time by the whole battery was 770
pounds, much less than one broadside from some of the ships Farragut sent
against them.
In those dangerous
circumstances, they waited. Banks was between them and Vicksburg. The outpost
of Port Hudson had become an orphan, trapped and impossible to supply from the
garrison at Vicksburg. The longest true siege in American history was underway.
For 61 days, the Confederate forces inside the besieged post performed
incredible tactical and strategic feats in the face of over whelming odds.
Trenches that foreshadowed the nightmarish landscapes of World War I were
perfected. Grenades were invented. Bombproofs were
introduced into the art of warfare, and the barbed-wire entanglements that
would later litter battlefields had their precursors here in piano wire
obstacles. When the heavy artillery suffered broken carriages, the guns were
mounted on railroad cars or propped up to keep them firing.
De Gournay
was an innovative commander, shifting his troops to give the impression that
the garrison was more heavily manned. "The breastworks were but poorly
lined, and had the enemy succeeded in making a general assault on every point
simultaneously, it would not have been possible to meet them with successful
resistance," he noted. "But the nature of the ground around our works
and the difficulty in bringing up large bodies of troops to time, militated in
our favor, and the first attacking column was generally repulsed and routed ere
the second could work its way to its point of attack. Our fellows then would
double-quick to the right or left, as the case may be, and reinforce the point
threatened, beat back the assailants, and run to another point of attack."
If guns were scarce,
ammunition for them was even more so, and eventually the river batteries could
not return fire--the shells were simply too precious to risk. Some of the cannoneers fed any kind of scrap iron available into their
guns, and among the many reports of peculiar wounds was a Union soldier who was
hit in the face by a remnant of an old French bayonet.
The siege dragged on
through June. By the end of the month the food had run out, and the men were
reduced to eating mule meat and rats. Incredibly, morale remained high.
Although wounded, de Gournay noted in an official
report on June 26: "There is still continual firing, and it is probable
that the attack will be renewed tonight, preparatory to an attempt to charge
the works in the morning. The men are in excellent spirits and will do all
their duty."
The brave little band of
defenders fought valiantly. When July 7 brought news of Vicksburg's surrender,
it was received with disbelief. It was not until July 9 that the Port Hudson
garrison finally accepted the truth and likewise agreed to surrender. Thus
ended the siege, and with it the illustrious military career of Paul François
de Gournay. The Union besiegers, who had lost more
than 7,000 men, were shocked to see the small, half-starved force of 2,200
able-bodied Confederates drawn up for the surrender ceremony.
De Gournay
wrote of the siege that history bypassed: "Voluntarily putting ourselves
in the clutches of our enemy, we held him where we wanted him, and when the
surrender came, after sixty-one days' tussle, it was brought about by the only
contingency we had failed to consider, i.e., the fall of Vicksburg."
De Gournay
and the 405 officers of the Port Hudson garrison were sent North as prisoners
of war, incarcerated at several prisons before arriving at Fort Delaware in
June 1864. There, de Gournay was selected for a
special fate. He was one of 600 officers sent by the Union to Charleston Harbor
to be placed under friendly fire, protecting the Union batteries on Morris
Island. After 3 ˝ months of brutal treatment, de Gournay was released from prison on a special exchange in
December 1864. The war ended a few months later, and, aged 38, de Gournay was a grizzled veteran.
The marquis returned to
France after the war. Two years later, he was back in America as the vice
consul of France, and served seven years in that position, residing in
Baltimore. Life for de Gournay became quiet and
unassuming. He worked at scholarly pastimes--translating French works into
English and teaching French-- and rented rooms in his house, all to earn money.
He was editor of the Catholic Mirror, and also wrote for various
newspapers, mostly articles on the war, particularly the Port Hudson campaign.
De Gournay never forgot his loyalty to the
Confederacy, and remained active in several veterans organizations. Forever
proud of his Zouave cannoneers,
he spoke fondly of them all his life.
On July 26, 1904, de Gournay died in Baltimore, aged 76. He was buried in the
Confederate section of Loudoun Park Cemetery, with members of his veterans
organizations. Although he was a relatively obscure figure in the Civil War,
his sense of honor, capable leadership in the face of superior odds, and
patriotic devotion to the Southern cause equaled or excelled that of many of
the more famous personalities of the war.

The Creoles of Cuba
Since my return to this
city I have been asked so many questions and have heard so many reports about
Cuban affairs, that I believe it due to truth, to the memory of the martyrs in
the Cuban cause, and to the Cuban people in general, to raise my voice, however
humble and unknown, to state such facts as circumstances have given me special
knowledge of.
I solemnly state that
Gen. Lopez never deceived any one about the revolutionary feeling in Cuba, and
the cooperation he hoped to meet from the Cubans. My position near him during
the last eighteen months of his life, enables me to state knowingly that
letters from all parts of the island have often called him and his friends,
whatever might be their number. No letters or news have ever been forged in
this city, and I am astonished that such an accusation could ever have been
made against the few devoted friends, who, sincerely convinced of the goodness
of the cause, have spared no effort, no sacrifice to serve it, and have engaged
in it their time, their name and their fortune, with no guarantee than the word
and honor of one man. These letters have never been written with the intention
of deceiving: their only fault is exaggeration, not as regards the feelings and
wishes of the Cuban people, but as to the possibility of immediate action.
Circumstances have been against the expedition; the revolution had broken out
on the 4th of July in Puerto Principe; from many points Patriots had
started and concentrated in the Coscoro mountains,
who were and are still defending themselves against the royal troops.
The Government, of course, immediately expected the arrival of some expedition
from the States, and took all necessary measures; arrests were made; the army
of spies reinforced, and all suspicious men marked and closely watched. The
General arrived. But few Cubans joined him, it is true, but how many tried to
join? The jailers of Havana may answer that question by stating how many
arrests were made on the roads since the 12th of August; they can
answer it by telling what is the crime committed by over two thousand wretches
now in Spanish dungeons or transported to Spain. The soldiers also will answer
by saying how many have been executed behind the bushes of the Aguacate and the Pena Blanca!
Say that the Cubans are
paralyzed by the system of terror under which they live; say that they are
crushed by tyranny; that they lack resolute leaders, capable of forming a plan
and of leading a people without arms, and surrounded by the most ingenious
system of spies; accuse them of cowardly weakness, but do not cast infamy on
their name by representing them fighting the Patriots, tracking with dogs the
man who has been their only hope for two years.
I was in Cuba when Gen.
Lopez arrived, and I will only say that had it been possible to join him, I
would not now be in New Orleans; those who know me will not doubt my words.
Now, while I am convinced, for having myself seen and heard what I say, and
having been amongst the Cubans and exposed to the same dangers, I oblige nobody
to share my convictions, but I will tell the incredulous, go to the island of
Cuba, do not seek information in newspapers published under the most vigilant
censorship, not amongst men who are interested in showing that the island is
quiet, but mix with the Cubans, become their friend-let you observations be
personal, and then try a little conspiracy. Only assemble and arm fifty men, I
warrant you will find both men and money; but after that, if you are able,
withdraw your hear from the noose in which you had already seen it, if you have
resisted the trials of a conspirator's life, if you can escape, you will soon
be back and will say with me, it must be seen to be believed or understood;
this people has the will but not the power of moving.
It has not been my
intention to get into a long discussion; I am no public writer, and it is with
regret that I put my name before the public; but returning to New Orleans, I
have been painfully affected by the revulsion which has taken place since the
news of the defeat of theat heroic little party whose
deeds will be long spoken of by the Spanish soldier, who, more generous than
his Government, gives due credit to an enemy that only gave way to a force ten
times stronger. I have heard accusations murmured against Gen. Lopez and his
noble and generous friends, who feel less the loss of their fortunes, their
name exposed to the attacks of vulgar enemies, than for the loss of a man who
never had an unworthy thought, whose motives were pure and generous. Gen Lopes
had honored me by his friendship and confidence. I grieve his loss as that
of a father; and I think that raising my weak voice to justify him, his
friends, of the cause for which he died, is to me a duty-is rendering a homage
to his memory. Those who insult his ashes by calumnies are guilty of an act of
cowardice, and I would be as guilty if I remained silent. I confidently hope
that time will justify him in the eyes of the world, and that if I have not
been able to save him, I may yet one day aid in avenging him. I have no
personal interest engaged in the Cuban cause; my life is all I could give to
it; and if I regret being obscure and unknown, it is only because a more
elevated position would have given more weight to my words-words which are
dictated by a sincere and well-convinced heart.
