As the ram was drawn out, the Southfield filled and sank. Meantime both vessels had opened fire on the assailant with their heavy guns. The guns had been left loaded with shell since the afternoon firing, although the Albemarle was expected ; and as the projectiles struck the ram's iron side, they burst into fragments which rebounded over the Miami's deck. Three or four of the pieces struck Flusser, who was instantly killed. Half a dozen others were wounded ; but the ram received no injury. The... hawsers that lashed the vessels parted, and the crew of the sinking steamer jumped to the Miami. The latter then retreated, and with the two tugs, dropped down to the mouth of the river. The Albe- marle followed for a short distance, and shots were ex- changed, but without effect on either side. Next day Ply- mouth surrendered. THE ATLANTIC SQUADRONS. 99 It now became a matter of impoi-tance to reinforce the blockading vessels in the Sounds, as the i-am might at any moment come out of the river and repossess all the waters of North Carolina.
