Brave Union Lieutenants Amputated by Courageous Surgeon
A wounded lieutenant in a bayonet charge near New Orleans requests amputation of his amputated stump while under combat stress. The surgeon performs the procedure under chloroform, and the lieutenant remains calm, saying the stump feels like a rag and the limb is cold. The despatch from Farragut’s squadron proclaims a brilliant victory with heavy Union casualties and substantial enemy losses as the city of New Orleans falls.

Iceberg Adventure Ends With Panic At Sea Scene
A French officer and crew visited an iceberg off Temple Bay on a bright summer morning. They climbed its crystal walls, toasted royalty, and laughed at danger until the iceberg erupted with a volcanic-like eruption, scattering the crew. A New Orleans mayor cites barbarous firing on civilians cheering the Old Banner as the ship neared.
