Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Confederate Defence of Morris Island, Charleston Harbor, by the Troops of South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina, in the Late War Between the States
During the firing Sumter ran out her guns, and many an anxious eye was cast to the rear, expecting each moment to see her belch forth a fire which would have annihilated those who had thus dared to fire on the Stars and Stripes.
In April the same act set ablaze the Northern heart; but on the oth January it fell still-born.
