"The Ram is No Myth"

“A skeptical Confederate engineer named Henry T. Guion, mindful of the many delays thus far in construction, noted that "Howard & Ellis [shipbuilders] are apparently driving hard upon the gunboat and . . . will finish here (Kinston) in ninety days . . . I give them til Christmas—we shall see which is right."”
