The Cairo Expedition

ISBN: 9781331092261
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
Excerpt from The Cairo Expedition: Illinois First Response in the Late Civil War, the Expedition From Chicago As the years go by, and one by one the actors in and spectators of the scenes of the war of the Rebellion pass away, it seems necessary and proper that all of us should make some record of what we saw or knew of the anxious and trying times in the spring of 1861. The general history of the war has been written by a number of able authors, I wish, only, to add what came within my own knowledge, as to the part taken by Chicago at the beginning of the war. From the time when the steamer Star of the West was fired upon, January 9, 1861, and driven to sea from the entrance to Charleston harbor, the people throughout the North were uneasy and excited, but no one could believe that a serious attempt would be made to disrupt the Union of the States or destroy a government that had existed for nearly a century, and which had been consecrated by the deeds and lives of so many noble men. April 12, 1861, when the citizens of Charleston, South Carolina, opened fire on Fort Sumter, and the gallant Maj. Robert Anderson, to save the lives of his soldiers, struck the Flag of our Country, the news went through the North like an electric shock; quickly recovering from the stunning blow, the people felt that war had actually come and though cheeks paled, lips were firmly set, and eyes flashed, showing the determination by all patriots to stand shoulder to shoulder and preserve the Union and the Government at any cost of life and treasure.
