RE: Lincoln and Ft. Sumter

Laurie,
According to Abner Doubleday's reminisces. They were given permission to purchase supplies in the city but Charleston was such a hotbed that merchants refused to sell to them for fear of crowd retribution.

Anderson left Fort Moultrie for Sumter on Christmas night. Moultrie was indefensible from the land and decided to move to Sumter to avoid being attacked.

Funny how history repeats itself. The Libyan ambassador fled to his safe house too only it was not as safe as Sumter.
