Just ran across this citation: Don't have access to the Journal in question. May be of use to someone.

Note on Torpedo Boat Constructed at Mobile, Army and Navy Journal, Vol 3, pg 562; Vol 4, pg 18. Should be about 1866.

Checked them out. They are short history articles about H.L. Hunley.

The Saint Patrick attacked the Octotara in the early hours of January 28, 1865 in Mobile, Alabama.

Some described the Saint Patrick as a torpedo a boat. However, my research indicates it was more of an advanced submersible vessel.
