Captain Fox. Are you blind? Read the top in the link.
Again I'll ask for the signed armistice. With no signed armistice, none of this matters.

Report of Capt. G. V. Fox, U. S. Agent, of Second Expedition for the Relief of Fort Sumter.
Just because he called himself a Captain did not make him one. That is from April 19, 1861 when he was lying his ass off.
Try this link to the report of the same G.V. Fox on February 24, 1865.
And try this quote:
The tug Freeborn was not permitted to leave New York. The tug Uncle Ben was driven into Wilmington by the violence of the gale and subsequently captured by the rebels. The tug Yankee reached Charleston bar a few hours after the Baltic had left with Major Anderson's command on board.The communications between New York and Washington having been severed, I applied to Mr. Aspinwall to obtain for me a small steamer, with arms and ammunition, to enable me to reach the Chesapeake Bay, where I judged that armed steamers were very essential. This gentleman applied to Mr. John Jacob Astor, jr., who very generously gave him a check for $3,000. With this he procured the tug Yankee and persuaded Commodore Breese, commandant of the New York navy yard, to arm and fit her out; and having received from that officer an appointment as acting lieutenant in the Navy, I left on the 26th for Hampton Roads, where I reported to Commodore Pendergrast, of the Cumberland.
AFTER the events, ACTING LIEUTENANT FOX.
