Scourge of War Boards

Hi.

I use to live in eastern passage (just oustide of Dartmouth/Halifax) in Nova Scotia Canada, and I was told something about how Confederate ships were able to slip by a contigent of federal ships by using this passage.

Is this true? I have been looking everywhere for information on this but I have not been able to find anything.

I just found this to be so fascinating. If anyone can help out with this, I would appreciate it.

I have finely found the info I needed.

One such ship, the CSS Tallahassee, became a legend in Halifax when she made a daring midnight escape through from northern warships believed waiting at the harbour entrance.

She escaped through using Eastern Passage.

Cool!

Also found allot of Halifax info during the American Civilwar. Interesting.
