Firing on Fort Sumter

Firing on Fort Sumter

My sisters and I came down to Rainbow Row to watch.  We so hope the southern troops are going to capture Fort Sumter. We didn't know what to expect.  Lots of friends were there. Everyone was dressed like they were going to a garden party. We cheered every time the cannons blasted!  It was very exciting.  I don't think the ladies realized this was the beginning of a war and not a show put on for their benefit. After all, some of our boys might be killed!

Cordially,
Miss Amanda Honeydew

  9. I saw the whole thing happen! I was sitting on the roof and it looked like fire works. It was probably scary for the men over at Fort Sumter. My friend was up there with me and she said it blinded her.

  21. It was so scary when I was fighting in the horrible,awful war!
    We didn't stop fighting because, Lincoln gave us supplies.I was worried about my family the whole time, but thinking about them made me fight even harder.I knew we were going to have to surrender, because they shot at us for 30 hours.I was right about us surrendering!
