The promise was given that the garrison would be sent to any point of the United States that Anderson might select. This offer was respectfully declined. Ander son stood undaunted, firm in his faith that God would show the way. On the morning of the 12th of April, just fifty years ago, the rebel force, about ten thou sand strong, opened fire upon the devoted garrison, which comprised in all, officers, non commissioned officers, privates, and the band, some sixty men. After a glorious resistance..., the Fort was evacuated; the terms of evacuation being the same that had been offered and refused a few days before. " That flag which has been raised with prayer, shall never be lowered except with honor. " 13 The rebels lined their batteries and cheered the garrison as the men left the Fort and passed out to the fleet beyond the bar. The garrison reached New York on the 19th of April, 1861. The enthusiasm was unbounded. The whole Country realized that the honor of the Nation had been fully vindicated by his loyalty.
