frederick crocker
in september 1862 the commander of the west gulf blockading squadron, rear admiral david farragut, encouraged master frederick crocker in the steamer to capture the port. farragut assigned acting master quincy hooper in the schooner to assist. on september 23, the vessels arrived off of the pass and were joined by acting master lewis pennington in the mortar schooner . the captains conferred and determined that they would not attempt to get the deep draft "kensington" over the bar, but instead would use the schooners to make the attack. late that afternoon the "rachel seaman" made it over, but the slightly deeper draft "henry janes" became stuck when the tide fell.
