The Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 21, beginning on page 304, describes what became of the gold and silver in the Confederate States Treasury. The account was written by Captain William H. Parker, Confederate States Navy, who was responsible for the treasure and its transportation south. What follows are excerpts from that document.

"Mrs. President Davis and family were in town. They had left Richmond a week before the evacuation. I called upon her, represented the danger of capture, and persuaded her to put herself under our protection. A company of uniformed men, under Captain Tabb, volunteered to accompany me. These men were attached
to the navy-yard in Charlotte. Most of them belonging to the game little town of Portsmouth, Va., and a better set of men had never shouldered a musket. They were as true as steel."

"I had several interviews with President Davis and found him calm and composed, and resolute to a degree. As soon as I saw Mr. Mallory he directed me to deliver the treasure to General Basil Duke, and disband my command. I went to the depot, and there, in the presence of my command, transferred it accordingly. General Duke was on horseback, and no papers passed. The Charlotte company
immediately started for home, accompanied by our best wishes. I have a dim recollection that a keg of cents was presented to Captain Tabb for distribution among his men, and that the magnificent present was indignantly declined."

The Southern Historical Society Papers, Volume 40, page 186, further state that "Mr. Davis and his cabinet started from Charlotte soon after the surrender of General Lee, towards Washington, Ga., under the escort of General Wheeler's cavalry and one company of the navy yard battalion under Capt. Tabb, the other companies remaining to garrison Charlotte, and were surrendered together with
the rest of General Johnston's army when the army capitulated at Greensboro, N.C., April, 1865."
