Freeborn Brings Despatches and Captures Vessels at Fortress Monroe
From Fort Monroe on May 20 the steaming Freeborn arrived with government despatches. On the way up she captured two small vessels and towed them to the Navy Yard. A passenger said two fleet vessels visited Sewall's Point near Fortress Monroe and shelled Virginians erecting a battery, causing architectural damage but no shore casualties confirmed. Commodore Pendergast sent a flag of truce to Norfolk to arrange transport for certain persons to the North, with assurances of accommodation. A later report of a fight at the mouth of the Potomac proved unfounded according to the Navy Department.
