- MACHINERY FROM THE C.S.S.
NASHVILLE
These portions of rotating machinery were
removed, 1960, from the wreck of the Confederate blockade runner
NASHVILLE, sunk in the Ogeechee River by shell fire from the
U.S.S. MONTAUK in Feb., 1863. These relics give some conception
of the power of the NASHVILLE's engine.
