- CONFEDERATE BALLONIST AUGUSTINE SMYTHE, Augustine Thomas Smythe,
born 5 October 1842 in Charleston, was the son of the Reverend Thomas
Smyth and Margaret Milligan Adger. In early manhood, he added an e to
the spelling of his surname. Initially educated at Professor A.
Sachtleben's school in Charleston. He entered South Carolina College
in 1860 but left during the Civil War. Joining the college corps of
cadets as a corporal (25 January 1861), he was present at the firing
on Fort Sumter on 12 April 1861; after the cadet corps was disbanded,
he enlisted as a private in Company A (Washington Light Infantry) of
the Twenty-fifth South Carolina Infantry (4 April 1862). Smythe was
detached for duty as a lance sergeant in the Signal Corps on 20
October 1862 and subsequently was a signal operator and observer at
Fort Sumter, Battery Wagner, the steeple of St. Michael's Church, and
on the ironclad Palmetto State in Charleston harbor. In 1864, he
was placed in charge of an experiment in which a captured balloon was
used as an observation post and made several ascensions before the
experiment was discontinued. After the evacuation of
Charleston in February 1865, he joined the Fifth South Carolina
Cavalry as a sergeant major, fought at the Battle of Bentonville,
North Carolina (19 March 1865), and surrendered at Greensboro, North
Carolina 26 April 1865. A Confederate era postal cover addressed
