No, the website is unattributed. Was that someone's high school term paper you referenced?
While I believe that Maryland Governor Hicks was ultimately a friend of the Union, his actions in the weeks immediately after the start of the Civil War are suspect.
LOL. No, it is part of a masters thesis at the College of William and Mary. Looks like it is designed to be used by teachers in primary and secondary education. From what I could tell, the information on the link I provided was developed by the person who did the thesis. The link was a link within the masters person's site.
More importantly, do you have any problems with the information it contains? Are the facts there correct?
From this site, here is an excerpt from the report of the Colonel of the 6th Massachusetts:
The mayor of Baltimore placed himself at the head of the column beside Captain Follansbee, and proceeded with them a short distance, assuring him that he would protect them, and begging him not to let the men fire; but the mayor's patience was soon exhausted, and he seized a musket from the hands of one of the men and killed a man therewith, and a policeman, who was in advance of the column, also shot a man with a revolver.
Also from this site, here is Lincoln refusing to provide justification to the Maryland House of Representatives for his arrest of the police commisioners. The police had protected the troops going through the city.
WASHINGTON, July 27, 1861.To the House of Representatives:
In answer to the resolution of the House of Representatives of the 24th instant, asking the grounds, reason, and evidence upon which the police commissioners of Baltimore were arrested and are now detained as prisoners at Fort McHenry, I have to state that it is judged to be incompatible with the public interest at this time to furnish the information called for by the resolution.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Is that a Clinton moment, or what?
