Destruction and Evacuation of Columbia by Federal Troops
Tuesday February 14 Confederate forces retreated to the Congaree banks opposite Columbia. A night skirmish and heavy artillery followed before the Union army crossed the river and burned the bridge. On Thursday bombardment forced mass evacuations as fires and looting engulfed the city. Federal troops entered at dawn on the 17th amid wreckage, with Sherman’s forces taking control and promising safety, then failing as fires and pillaging spread. The city suffered extensive destruction including the depot, libraries, art, and personal property while aid arrived from Augusta to relieve the starving populace.
