Most Northerners were happy to see the lower South secede from the Union; however there were a few who felt they had no authority to do so. However, when Lincoln compelled the Confederate States to fire on Fort Sumter, many Northerners became angry because their flag was fired on and became ardent supporters of the war to restore the Union.
