: ''Not to be confused with the 1863 Battle of Grimball's Landing'' The Battle of Grimball's Causeway, (a.k.a. Battle of James Island) was a minor skirmish near the end of the American Civil War. It was known as the "Last fight for Charleston".〔Sutherland p. 719〕 ==Background==
Since the fall of Morris Island in 1863 no major offensive had been carried out against Charleston. Several small skirmishes and expeditions were carried out against James Island and Johns Island. On February 10, 1865 Union troops from the Northern District of the Department of the South under Brigadier General Alexander Schimmelfennig made one final expedition to James Island. Major Edward Manigault of the 2nd South Carolina Heavy Artillery commanded a small force manning rifle pits on the southern edge of James Island at Grimball's Causeway.
