Monitor entered Hampton Roads
to ,iOin the practically destroyed
Union Fleet. The night passed
and on the morning of Sunday,
March 9. the Monitor and Merli-

was the first time in United States
history that two ironclads had
claShed.
Battle 81 Hours
A three and one-half hour
battle between these two ensued.
At times during the battle they
were no more than 1850 yards
apart. However, due to their
ironclad nature. neither ship was
able to inflict sufficient damage
en- the other to sink her. At noon

turned to the Naval Shipyard and
the Monitor returned in the di-
rection Of Fortress Monroe Fort
