What caused Baltimore citizens to attack volunteer soldiers from Massachusetts heading to Washington DC?
ChuckSiata
This incident happened as part of US President Lincoln's call up of volunteers to augment the Union's regular army. Many people in Maryland, which was a slave State, were sympathetic to the South. An angry mob caused a commotion in trying to stop the troops.
Earlier Maryland officials had cut the railroad links between Baltimore and Philadelphia. Maryland would remain in the Union as a slave State during the war, but it was always a problematic situation for Lincoln. Later in the war, Marylanders would see a Confederate army march from Northern Virginia into Maryland.
