every time i say ANYTHING that points out that the lincoln MALadministration & the TYRANT were CREEPS, CRIMINALS, etc., some DAMN-fool accuses me of lying just because he/she has NO "comeback".
when i have cited DOCUMENTERY PROOF, then those IDIOTS/HATERS/FOOLS have ALWAYS said: "that's not a good source" (i STILL laugh at the DAMNyankee who said that the OFFICIAL RECORDS of the war could NOT be believed as "they are just racist diatribes" AND "rebel propaganda". m(
fwiw, that is the sort of HATERS & IDIOTS that you're associating with.
the Charleston Mercury of the period reported what supplies were being delivered to the fort, including the LUXURY GOODS, like fresh bread/fruit/oysters,lace & chocolate for example.
the truth is that Fortress Monroe was ALSO supplied by civilian merchants for quite a while during the war.
the FACTS are NOT, at least in this case, on the Yankee/HATERS side.
free dixie,sw
I thought that YOU were the Yankee HATERS side.
When have you ever cited "documentery" (sic) proof that can actually be confirmed by anyone? You always end up resorting to some book that no one can find or some document that no one's ever mentioned before. (and I'm still waiting for some explanation why Jefferson Davis never mentions this alleged personal letter from Lincoln, in either his memoir or his speech to the CSA congress).

Last week you said it was a professor at the Citadel who wrote about this.
So, it's your position that when Anderson said his men were running out of supplies and would have to leave the fort soon, he was lying? When Capt. Foster wrote in his journal that the men were down to half rations of bread, he was lying? When he says that the men inside the fort were picking through the last of the damaged rice, trying to get the broken glass out of it so they could eat it, they were ignoring the oysters and chocolate that had been brought out to them that day? Are you saying that Abner Doubleday was lying when he wrote:
Many unfavorable comments having been made, even in the Southern States, more particularly in Kentucky, in relation to Governor Pickens’s treatment of us, he relaxed his severity, and on the 21st sent us over some fresh beef and vegetables ; as if we would consent to be fed by the charity of South Carolina. Anderson showed a good deal of proper spirit on this occasion. He declined to receive the provisions, but notified the governor that, if we were not interfered with, we would purchase our own supplies in Charleston market. The governor consented to this; but nothing came of it. There seemed to be a combination among the market-men not to sell us any food.
The only THING you ever site is the fact that you are a nut.
Show the proof that Sumter was open to provisions from Charleston merchants, or be know as a damn lier and nut case that you are.
April 7, 1861. -- P. G. T. Beauregard orders all transports to Fort Sumter cut off. This ended the fort's supply of fresh food.They had nothing left but old salt pork which is why Anderson told them that the 15th would be the last day and they would be forced to quit Sumter.
Why did Davis fire when he knew that in a few days Anderson would be starved out? Because Davis wanted and needed war. It was the only way he would ever get Virginia to join his little vicious slave driving republic that you so love and long for.
Just out of CURIOSITY, how much have you paid the shrinks and psychologists over the years trying to cure your INSANITY?
