rustbucket: "Oh, and why on March 5, the day after his inauguration, did Lincoln secretly start trying to reinforce Fort Pickens and break the truce without informing the other side, possibly beginning the war there like Adams and Meigs said?
Was Fort Pickens running out of food like Sumter?"

Your source for this data is what?

I provided a reference to that in a post I once made to you. I’d link you to that long post, but the thread was deleted by a flame war. In the interest of brevity I won’t repost the old long post now, but I may change my mind later and post the whole thing because there was useful information in it.

Here is a link to Lincoln and his March 5 verbal order I provided you back then: Link; (it's in the first paragraph)

Do you want me to repost Adams and Meigs statements too?
