"On 17 April 1866 there was a suit in the Admiralty Court on behalf of he Government of the United States of America as plaintiffs to obtain possession of the vessel The Gibraltar otherwise Sumpter. This vessel had been purchased in the year 1861 by the then Government of the Confederate States of America, and having been armed and otherwise equipped, proceeded to sea and cruised in the West Indies and elsewhere and captured divers vessels belonging to subjects of the United States. In the month of January, 1862, she put into the port of Gibraltar, where she was sold to Melchior George Klingender, who subsequently employed her in running the blockade, in which service she continued until the close of the war, when, having put into Liverpool, she was arrested in this suit. No appearance had been entered of any person as owner to dispute the right of the plaintiffs, and the usual notices having been given, the Court was now moved to decree possession of her to the plaintiffs."

Ostensibly, Klingender was a Liverpool businessman who also acted as Fraser, Trenholm & Co’s advertising agent. He is also generally supposed to have been the paymaster for the crews of the Alabama. Klingender, however, was much more than a glorified clerk. In 1864 Charles Prioleau organized a Grand Bazaar in Liverpool to earn money for the Southern Prisoners’ Relief Fund. This was one of the most glamorous events ever held in Liverpool, and titled British ladies were patronesses. Mrs. Klingender was one of the ladies holding a stall, which is indicative of the Klingenders high ranking in the social scale.
