We’re close to the depth of geophys anomaly possibly from the sutler’s cabin, and encouragingly, some 19th century historic glass is coming out in the levels just above. And we had an unwelcome site visitor. .

The only US Civil war memorial and first Presidential statue outside 🇺🇲, commemorating the six Scots fighting for the Union, one buried beneath - despite praising 'emancipation', slavery made 🏴 rich, owning ⅓ of Jamaican slaves. Old Calton Burial Ground. #Edinburgh #USCivilWar

Say, Malafunkshun808 . . . dunno if you got wind of this one. Sumter fascinates me—the “midnight” between #Antebellum & full blown #USCivilWar . All that surrounded by water + incompleteness. Almost like it was daring something big to happen to it. 🤷🏻♂️🇺🇸

Former South Carolina governor, Nikki Haley, apparently knows nothing about the US Civil War. Seemingly, she thinks that all those Confederate statues of Generals on horseback were to commemorate their skill at playing Polo. #southcarolina #nikkihaley #fortsumter #uscivilwar …
The Moore revolver was an early, pseudo-swing-out, cartridge revolver. It was a popular commercial option in the civil war.

Brigadier General W.H.C. Whiting, CSA.
Whiting was in charge of the Wilmington/Ft. Fisher defenses until being relieved by Braxton Bragg.
Bragg abandoned the city; Whiting remained with the men. He requested to be buried there, & lies there now in Oakdale Cemetery. #USCivilWar

#homefront article of the week: #USCivilWar studies typically explore themes involving adults—thus overlooking children’s experience. Here, Ben Davidson studies “freedom’s generation,” arguing that Black children were especially active in defining freedom. doi.org/10.1353/cwh.20…
Only South Carolina had seceded at this point. This is a fascinating Southern perspective on a writer in a Northern newspaper. Note the reference to trade, war, and Gov. Seward.

Semi-Weekly Mississippian, Dec 25, 1860
Nothing beats a beautiful day and an historic walk. Even the Yankee interpretation of events on the National Park Service app could spoil it.
