Originally built as a fast passenger steamer in 1853, for service between New York and Charleston, the Nashville, a 1,220-ton side-wheeler, had been seized by the Confederates at the outbreak of war. Refitted as a commerce raider, she was commissioned as the CSS Nashville, with a complement of 40 officers and men, but was only lightly armed with two 6-pounder guns, because her decks would not support heavy armament. It was originally thought that she would take Messrs Mason and Slidell to Europe, but following a change of plan they left in another vessel.
On 26 October 1861, under the command of Lieutenant Robert B. Pegram, CSN, formerly of the U.S. Navy, the Nashville ran the blockade at Charleston, and after coaling at Bermuda, sailed for England, where it was hoped the work of strengthening her for service as a warship could be carried out.
Near the mouth of the English Channel she captured and burned the Harvey Birch, en route from Le Havre to New York, the first Northern merchantman to be taken by a Confederate commerce raider in the North Atlantic, and on 21 November she arrived at Southampton. As well as the crew of the unfortunate Harvey Birch, she also had on board some spare officers for ships being built in England for the Confederate Navy (the Florida and the Alabama), and Colonel John L Peyton, CSA, state purchasing agent for North Carolina.
Though she captured and destroyed another Northern merchant ship, the Robert Gilfillan, on her way back to the Confederacy, the Nashville's career as a commerce raider was over. After decommissioning, she was converted into a blockade-runner, the Thomas L. Wragg, then briefly became a privateer, the Rattlesnake, before being destroyed in the Ogeechee River, Georgia, by the monitor Montauk in February 1863.
