ACCOUNT OF A NOTED DUEL AS TOLD
BY V^^LLIAINI T. AUSTIN, Sr.
Battle Island, Brazoia Co.
Stephen F. Austin, first cousin of John Austin and
William T. Austin, was impresario of the five Austin
Colonies. There existed in Texas at that time a faction,
opposing Stephen F. Austin in most of his measures,
known as the Wharton faction. After the battle of
Velasco and other troubles with JMexico, Stephen F.
Austin Avent to JMexico in the interest of the Colonies
and after arriving in Mexico, he was treacherously be-
trayed and throw into a dungeon, where he was detained
for eighteen months. During his absence the Wharton
faction broke out in the most bitter denunciations against
him and his measures. John Austin, being next in com-
mand and kin of Stephen F. Austin, felt that it devolved
upon him to champion Stephen F. Austin and his cause.
The excitement raged violently throughout the colony,
parties were formed upon the subject and scarcely a
colonist could be found who did not take part in the
controversy by joining one side or the other. John
Avistin challenged the head of the Wharton faction, Wil-
liam H. Wharton, to a duel, considered in those days
the honorable means of settling a difficulty. Before the
day appointed for the duel John Austin died.) Shortly
after a banquet was given by the Whartons, where John
Austin's death was discussed as removing the barrier to
the Wharton supremacy and Col. John A. Wharton of-
fered a toast to John Austin's bones burning on the
gridiron in Hell. William Tennent Austin was so in-
censed at the insult offered his brother's memory that
when he was told of it he went to find Col. JohnWharton and an altercation ensued and a challenge for
a duel followed from Col. John Wharton., The Whartonsbeing practiced duelists were confident of a successful
termination in their favor. William T. Austin did not wish
to shoot to kill, but only wanted to disable John Wharton,
— 17 —
which he did by shatteriii*? his right wrist. William Austin
deeply deplored the iieeessity of the duel and it is evident
that John Wharton did also, as an offieial pa|)er from
John Wharton ap])()inting William Tennent iViistin to
an office of honor is still in possession of the Austin
family.
John Austin joined Gen. Long's expedition and
entered iNlexieo in 1821. lie was taken prisoner, hut
was released and returned to U. S. A., through the in-
fluence of/Poin eett jof South Carolina, Minister to Mex-
ico, who was a college chum of John Austin. John
Austin was a co-partner with Stephen F. Austin and
S. M. Williams in coloni/ing Texas. While navigating
the coast between Texas and New Orleans he was twice
taken (prisoTier by pirates .and the second time he made
his escape bj'^ swinnning.

the town of Brazonia on the Brazos River. He engaged
in the mercantile business until after the great overflow
of the Brazos in 1833. His goods were ruined and
damaged by the water and such of the stock as was at
all valuable after the overflow was taken to the town of
Washington, Texas, and disposed of. Directly after the
overflow the cholera made its appearance.
William Tcnnent Austin made his mark on the page
of Texan history by saving his country in the TexanWar for Independence.
"He was in both expeditions to San Antonio, com-
manded at Velasco, the then important port at the
mouth of the Brazos, and was always on duty—held com-
missions and served as Aide-de-camp to the Commanderin Chief of the ^'^olunteer Army of Texas, under EdwardBurlesen, with the rank of Colonel — under President D.
G. Burnett as Conmiander at Velasco— under Presi-
dent yi. B. I.amar as aide to the Commander in Chief,
which commission recites that he was appointed because
of his 'acknowledged character for chivalry and honor'
—
and imder President Sam Houston as Commander in
Chief with like rank, and was in very truth: 'A soldier
of the Republic.'
"Like every man possessed of force of character, he
was a firm friend, a fearful foe, yet his enmity was ever
tempered with justice and at the first peace offering, a
little child could lead him."

BATTLE OF GALVESTON AS TOLD BYHENRY GRIFFIN HARDEN.
"The battle of Galveston was planned by General
Tom Green and Brig. General William T. Austin.
"We made our start from Huston, Texas. General
Green commanded the gun boats, which consisted of
three transports. General Austin commanded the land
forces. I was in Col. Hardeman's division. Our land
forces boarded a train of flat cars in Houston and pulled
out for Virginia Point. Our engineer got up all the
steam he could and our train fairly flew over the rails.
"The facts regarding Wm. T. Austin's war career have
not been put in history owing to his not being a man whoboasted or bragged. Wm. T. Austin was the most
agreeable commander I ever served under ; he was a gen-
eral favorite with all the boys. I served under William
T. Austin from April, 1836, to July 25, 1836. After-
wards served under him at the battle of Galveston,
1863."
William Tennent Austin helped Pres. Burnett to es-
cape the Mexican Army. He Avas appointed by Gov.
Houston Brig. General of Confederate States to organ-
ize and drill the militia of Chambers, Jefferson, Mont-
gomery and Galveston counties in 1860 and was ap-

Daring Exploits of Chas. W. Austin, Family of One of South's Greatest Naval
Heroes Resides in Houston. Manassas First Ironclad His Design.
Contrary to all the teachings of history, to a Texan belongs the honor of
having constructed and commanded the vessel that revolutionized naval war-
fare and displaced wood hulls for those of steel.
Throughout the world it is stated that the Merrimac and the Monitor
were the first successful exponents of ironclad architecture. This idea is
taught in the public schools from one end of this land to another and the
teachers have impressed and continue to impress it upon their pupils.
But it is not true history. Designed conjointly by Capt. John A. Stevenson
and Capt. Chas. W. Austin and constructed and commanded by the latter
the confederate ram Manassas was the first ironclad ever built. Capt. Austin
was a Texan, a relative of Stephen P. Austin, and his family resides today
at Houston at 2712 Fannin St. But for the success of this vessel the Merrimac
would never have been built, and Ericsson would never have submitted his
plans for the "cheese box on a raft".
The first ironclad, The Enoch Train, a tow-boat on the Mississippi waspurchased by Mr. Stevenson before the Federals had been driven from the
field of Bull Run. It was a powerful vessel with twin screws and mammothengines for a craft of its size, ISO ft. in length, it was registered at about
100 tons. Hauled upon the ways at New Orleans builders swarmed over iis
hull while all the city laughed at the plans laid down by the two captains.
It was sheathed above the water lines under the direction of CommanderAustin with two thicknesses of railroad rails and was fitted with a ram of
iron pointing out beneath about five ft. in length.
Before the vessel had been completed the blockade of the Mississippi
had been established. A commodore stationed at New Orleans refused to
man the vessel and shared the accepted belief that she was useless. Permis-
sion to call for volunteers was given, however. With a crew of 19 men she
— 35 —
steamed down the river to its nioiitli. There lay 4 sloops of war hcariti}; a
total armament of 56 guns.
Of all the 20 souls aboard Capt. Austin alone stood upon the tlcek.
Bearing down at full speed upon the blockailing fleet he aimed for the
steam sloop of war F^ichniond 22 guns. In the teeth of a hail of fire thundering
from half a hundred cannon the intrepid commander, standing alone and in
open sight from every vessel, commanded the engineer to pile more coal
under the boilers. Broadside after broadside came crashing about him like
the fury of hell. Plowing through the water with all the speed of which the
vessel was capable it was seen too late that a coal schooner lay between
the ram and its victim. Without swerving the Manassas steamed on. Solid
shot crashed and broke upon the iron sides, but still Capt. Austm stood un-
hurt. With an awful shock the ironclad cut through and through the sailing
vessel and plunged her spur far into the wooden sides of the Richmond just
as every cannon aboard belched forth its load of canister and shell.
The Manassas backed away unhurt with its gallant captain still standing
on the deck. His clothes were torn into shreds, but burned and blackened
as he was not a wound appeared upon his body. The Richmond, however,
was a wreck, while the coal schooner was already at the bottom of the sea.
In hot haste the remainder of the Federal fleet were steaming away from the
monster that had attacked them. The Confederate vessel was left alone and
the blockade was temporarily broken. But in getting away from its victimv
the port engine of the ram had been broken. Pursuit was impossible. Slowly
the Manassas steamed back to New Orleans only to be later vitally injured.
She was run upon a sand bank to save the crew and was there abandoned
by force of circumstances never to sail the sea again.
But the advantage of an ironclad vessel of war had been demonstrated.
The Manassas had been unarmed. At the same tune the power of a craft
of her stamp manned by a sufficient crew and mounted with guns of large
bore was recognized. Upon similar lines the Merrimac was built on the
Atlantic coast and the Monitor was evolved from the brain of a Scandinavian.
Capt. Austin and Capt. Stevenson had gained their victory in more waysthan one. They had taught the scoffing world a lesson and in doing so de-
veloped a hero for the Southern States whose record is unusurpassed.
And yet his name is almost unknown while those of lesser lights have
been brought into a publicity that will live forever. There was much to be
desired in the chronicled histories of the southern navy and its official records.
No man who ever fought upon the seas showed more intrepid valor than
did Capt. Austin in his service beneath the stars and bars. In the North
his name in unknown, while in the South few recognize the fact that a hero
came out of Te.xas who set a standard for the world in fortitude and daring.
With his death in 1889 the major part of his life's history was lost. Like
all true men he seldom talked of his achievements.
A distinguished family: Roger Sherman, one of the New England ancestors
of Capt. Austin, signed the Declaration of Independence. Another of his rela-
tives, Stephen F. Austin, is known as the Father of Texas. While his parents
— 36 —
resided in Ohio, Capt. Austin lived in the Lone Star State and commanded a
vessel of the Harrus-Morgan line plying between New Orleans and Galveston.
With the outbreak of the war his sympathies were with the South. He built
and fought with the Manassas. Four of his brothers were in the Union Army
while another was in the Confederate army.
He was the only one who took to the sea. For four years his life was
filled with daring exploit after exploit. Three times he was in prison, twice
escaping. Now but few of his adventures are to be remembered, but those
same few are enough to brand him as one of the greatest naval heroes of
the age. After the Manassas has been abandoned he took to blockade running
and from that time one feat of daring crowded rapidly upon another.
Capture of the Fox: From New Orleans he went to Mobile, where the
blockade was close. A great fleet was anchored off the town which practi-
cally forbade all entrance to the harbour. The days dragged by until finally
Capt. Austin, driven by waiting to an uncontrollable desire for something to
turn up, sailed out of the harbour in the murky darkness of a cloudy night
on a tour of investigation. There in the offing he discovered a steamer loaded
with arms, ammunition and supplies for the waiting fleet. Back in the city
he proposed his plan to the commanding officer. It was too daring for official
recognition, but permission was given to enlist volunteers for the desperate
mission.
On the first favorable night in a small steam launch, Capt. Austin and
six brave men went glinding out of the harbour. Unobserved they steamed
to the steps leading down from the steamer's side. Confident of security,
but one man had been left on the deck and he hailed the launch as it tied
up to the vessel's side.
"This is launch Number 7," came the response from Capt. Austin. "Where's
the Capt, of this ship?" "He's asleep in the cabin," answered the watchman.
"Lead me to him," commanded Capt. Austin. Without a thought of danger
the sailor turned and led the way along the deck, the leader of the expedition
following. As he climbed up the side of the vessel the remainder of the
crew came close behind. Each had been instructed as to his duty and without
a word they went to their different posts. Without knocking, the watch led
the visitor into the Captain's cabin. When he awakened he was looking
down the barrel of a revolver.
The hatches had been closed on the crew and the 6' men were in control.
Quickly slipping anchor chains the vessel was headed towards the harbor.
She was laying to the westward of the channel and must necessarily cross
its mouth. Scarcely had she started when she was hailed. "Transport Fox,
bound for Key West," came the response from the deck of the vessel as she
glided past.
Again she was hailed, but the same reply took her safely on toward the
goal. Once in the channel she was quickly put about and the next morning
found her tied up at the Mobile wharves. Thousands of muskets and a hull
full of ammunition were turned over to the confederacy with the ship. Capt.
— 37 —
Austin became the lion of the hour, and was presented with an eiu<^ant gold
watch by the citizens of the town.
This surpasses fiction: It was after the capture of New Orleans that
Capt. Austin fell into the clutches of the enemy and was lodged there in prison,
But jail walls could never hold him. Within a few days he was assisted to
his liberty and secreted in the house of a sympathizer. For ten days he
remained in hiding before a means of escape from the city was devised.
Finally one dark night a friend from the outside came to the house and
led Capt. Austin with his companion to the water front. Swimming out into
the muddy water the two men climbed over the side of a coal schooner and
hid themselves in the hold. The vessel was going out light bound for Havana,
a haven of safety for the prisoners.
At the appointed time a shuffling of feet on deck told the men below that
the ship was under way. Until far out at sea they remained in the hold,
stifled with the odor of bilge and the dust of coal. Their friend from the
outside had shipped as mate. When darkness came he opened the hatch
and the men released.
Stealthily creeping to the cabin occupied by the master they opened the
door and walked in. The captain was a German and all of his teutonic wrath
blazed up at the sight of the dust begrimmedstdwaways. He demanded their
story. Very frankly they told him that they were" estnping prisoners of war
and wanted to go to Havana. With a great Prussian oath the masted rushed
toward the door with the intention of giving the order to bout ship. Coolly
producing a revolver Capt. Austin pointed the..f8tiz.z,le in the Captain's face.
"Stay where you are," came the hoarse c-o+nmand. Obedience seemed neces-
sary. The stowaways agreed to pay their passage if allowed the freedom of
the vessel as passengers to Cuba. In the face of the demand the request was
as complied with and the ship sailed on its course.
But it was not for long. Morning dawned and with the dawn the stars
and stripes appeared in the distance. The captain rushed to the rail and
made an attempt to signal the vessel. Suddenly he felt himself held in a
grasp of steel. He was forced hastily back into his cabin, the door was
locked on him and Capt. Austin took command. A week later the shooner
was tied up at the Havana wharves and Capt. Austin was still in charge.
Turned over to the Cuban authorities his further immunity from captivity
was avoided by virtue of a previous meeting with the captain general of
the island. How this was brought about is another story.
A terrible journey: The details of the capture of the blockade runner
commanded by Capt. Austin in 1862 is forgotten history, but the fact remains
that he in company with his second in command was confined in a dungeon
in Fort Taylor at Key West. From their cell a window looked out over the
waves of the Gulf of Mexico that beat fully 50 ft. below. For weeks they
languished in captivity until finally help arrived. One day a rope was hastily
thrust through the grating, followed by a jug containing a surplus supply of
water and a package of bread.
Below the window of the prison a ship floated at anchor and at her
— 38 —
stern was tied a small boat used as a tender. The location of the ship
was marked. That night was dark. Securing the rope within the cell, Capt.
Austin, with the water jug tied around his neck, climbed from the high aperture
and swung out. Hand over hand he went down to freedom. Owing to the
necessary haste his companion was just above him bearing the bread. Whenfully 20 ft. above the water Capt. Austin found himself at the end of the rope.
It was too late to go back up. Letting go he went crashing feet downwardinto the waves below. His companion was fairly on top of him when he
went under. Fortunately the noise was not noted, but the water in the un-
corked jug was lost, as was also the bread. With bridges figuratively burned
behind them and untold suffering ahead, they struck out according to previous
agreement for the ship. Securing the yawl, Capt. Austin climbed aboard the
vessel. The watch was napping. Working fast and quietly he unscrewed the
compass from its place and dropped back with it into the small boat. It
would have been suicidal to have attempted to secure provisions to replace
those lost, and so the two sailed away destitute, shaping their course for
Havana. Day dawned, but still the two men rowed on, assisted by a makeshift
sail. The heat of a summer sun blazing over a tropic sea was intense. Theywere out of sight of land with water everywhere and not a drop to drink.
Hunger gnawed at their vitals, but safety was in front, not behind. With the
coming of night their suffering had increased to a point that seemed mad-dening.
Another and another day passed; still there was nothing but the burning
sun and the salt sea. Havana was ahead of them. Loaves of bread and
bunches of fruit appeared piled up in luxurious plenty on the seat beside
them only to vanish under touch. Clear, cool springs drippled from the bottom
of the boat, but the water was not for their parched and swollen throats.
Land appeared just behind only to fade away as with renewed efforts they
rowed toward it. With sailor instinct they kept to their course. Another
night found the two men raving stark mad, lying in the bottom of the yawl
too weak and emaciated to even cry for help. Before another day camethat would have assuredly brought death, the men were picked up by fisher-
men just off the Cuban coast a few miles below Havana. Water and food
were forced down their throats a little at a time. At first it seemed as though
relief was as likely to prove fatal as suffering had been before, but slowly
under the ministering hand of the fishermen they improved. Almost wornout by their awful experience they were taken to Havana and turned over to
the authorities. They were taken before the captain general and told their
story. Struck by their tale and by their appearance, he released them on
parole. The freedom of the city was theirs.
But the publicity given the event reached the army authorities in the
North and an officer was despatched to bring them back. When he arrived
Austin and his companion were summoned to appear before the governor
of the Island. A young lieutenant in his blue uniform was there awaiting
them in the private office of the captain general who sat at his desk writing.
At last he turned toward the group. In his hand he held a document which
— 39 —
he handed to Austin. It was n certificate of citizenship in Cuba. Snapping
ther fingers at the officer who had come to get them, they left the palace
free men.
During the remainder of their stay in the Cuban capital Capt. Austin
and his companion struck up a close friendship with the Governor who iiad
given them their liberty. This fact proved their salvation later.
The Blockader's last run: But it was in Galveston Harbor that Hie last
and most brilliant event in a civil war career occurred under the eyes of
the entire city. Old men tell of it yet, although with years tile memory of the
deed is dimmed. In broad daylight Capt. Austin ran the blockade of the port
with his ship the Susanna and brought provisions and war supplies to a
distressed land.
It was in the last year of the struggle the result of which was already
foregone. Almost all of the blockaded ports along the Atlantic and the gulf
had been captured and the entire southern squadron was blocking the harbor.
The story of the event as told by the U. S. ship Seminole, which led the
chase, has already been published in the New York World under the title,
"A Dash Through a Fleet." The authority for the tale already told was un-
actjuainted with the identify of the captain of the vessel he had chased, but
with due consideration gives him credit for being the coolest man that ever
walked a quarterdeck.
The Susanna was built on the Clyde and was a long, low steamer built
for speed and concealment. Time after time she had run into Galveston
Harbor through the fleet collected outside, but always before at night. Her
arrival was regular and always on time. When expected she always turned
up and tied at the wharf in the morning. Her last run was momentous. Leav-
ing Havana with a cargo of gunpowder and provisions, calculations had been
made as formerly to arrive off the harbor under cover of darkness, but a
break in the machinery caused delay. Steaming along Capt. Austin found
himself one morning but a few miles off Galveston and in sight of the blockad-
ing fleet.
As yet he was unseen owing to the low construction of his ship and he
decided to run out to sea; but enquiry below elicited the information that
the supply of coal would not be sufficient for 12 hours more. The only
filternative was to make for a place of concealment under the shore and
thither the prow was turned.
But the overhanging smoke had attracted the attention of the fleet, and
a ship of war was fast bearing down upon the daring blockade runners.
Without a moment's hesitancy Capt. Austin determined to run the gauntlet.
The course was again changed and the Susanna again headed for the bar.
A dozen ships barred her way.
With great clouds of smoke pouring from her funnels, and all attempt
at concealtment thrown to the winds, the swift Susanna rushed on seemingly
to sure destruction. Soon she came within range and every vessel opened
up on her from a long distance. The Seminole was in the lead and sent a
40
solid shot across the bow of the long dark ship that fairly skimmed the
water. Foam splashed up over the deck, but the warning had no effect.
Cutting in the warship decreased the distance between it and the Susanna
until objects could be plainly seen from one deck to another. Shot after shot
went screaming through the air toward the blockade runner, but still she
kept her course. The regular channel was blocked, but she went straight
ahead, raked fore and aft. The Susanna quivering like a frightened animal,
rushed on; all Galveston was on the wharves watching the engagement, hoping
and praying for the safety of the vessel. Suddenly the course of the Susanna
was changed. Doubling around the Seminole, she made straight for shallow
water and the bar. On board the sloop of war they believed her captain
decided to beach her and the course was taken up in the hope of capturing
the crew and preventing the absolute destruction of the vessel.
But it was part of the trick. Another turn that sent the water swirling
under the prow and the course was again changed. Crossing at a dangerous
and generally unknown place on the short bar the Susanna entered the deeper
channel of the bay. Her prow had been shot away and both smokestacks
were wrecked, but riddled with shot and shell as she was she steamed slowly
to the wharves and discharged her cargo.
During the entire engagement Captain Austin, according to the Commanderof the Seminole, coolly paced the bridge with his hands in his pockets and
a cigar between his teeth. Not once did he leave his place or show a sign
of trepidation in spite of the fact that half a ton of black powder was stored
directly beneath him. In the shower of shot and shell he stood as he had
on the deck of the Manassas facing almost certain death while his ship v.'as
being shot away beneath him. Cool courage, perfect seamanship and an
absolute knowledge of the harbour assisted him in performing another exploit
that had never been equalled and that only emphasizes the fact that someof the credit given to others belongs to him.
On the next voyage the ship commanded by Capt. Austin was cornered
and captured at sea by a federal sloop of war and he was taken to Philadelphia
in his own vessel, there to be thrown into prison. A short time afterwards the
struggle was ended. Returning to Galveston the hero went back to the
Merchant Marine and again took charge of a A'lorgan liner. It was at this
time that he met and married Miss Georgia Grafton, who resided in the
Texas seaport. During the struggle Capt. Austin was unknown to the girl
he later took for a wife, but his vessel, the Susanna, had brought her manygood things from foreign lands and his reputation as the handsomest and
most daring man in Texas was common property.
Some time later the couple removed to Savannah, where Capt. Austin
took charge of the construction of the jetties at the mouth of the river. There
the family of two sons and one daughter grew up from childhood to maturity.
In 1889 this naval hero of the South died as a result of exposure during
the war and today his body rests upon the shores of the Atlantic while the
ever-bearing waves pay tribute to his greatness. — "Nor should his glory
be forgot while fame her record keeps."

quired considerable property and became a baker on a very
large scale. He supplied all New England, New York, Virginia
and Barbadoes with biscuit. Milford became too small for the
operations of this great business man. His friend, Gov. Win-
thrope, induced him to settle in New London, where he took a
place next to the Governor's. He soon became by far the largest
land holder and richest man in the colony, and, in addition to

Rogers, one of the sons of James Rogers, promised Samuel that

had been concerted with his tawny friend, in case either should
be disturbed b}- an enemy ; and in half an hour's time grim bands
of warriors were seen on the hills and soon came rushing downwith the sachem at their head to the rescue of their friend.
Rogers had prepared a feast for their entertainment, but it was
probable that they relished the trick nearly as much as the
banquet."

to the General Court seven times between 1662 and 1673. Hewas Corn Commissioner for New London in 1662, and was

walk's early but excellently equipped physicians and most
eminent citizens." He was hospital sin-geon in the British armyin the so-called French War in 17.58. "At the burning of Nor-
walk in 1779 by the British, a period subsequent to his death,
his late mansion Avas destroyed with its effects, including his
books and papers. The only articles preserved were his silver-
headed cane, a present from Governor Fitch, and his family
coat of arms." The coat of armas is at present in the possession
of Oscar Read, his great-great-great-grandson, and is the same
that James Rogers brought over from England in 1635.
