It was a challenge to Lincoln's claim that the Union would defend its tiny garrison in Charleston Harbour.

When the garrison was evacuated, Lincoln had to make a robust response, and he appealed for 75,000 volunteers for the Union Army.

Four states of the Upper South, whose loyalties had been undecided, now declared for the Confederacy, and the two sides in the struggle were fully lined-up against each other.

The war was on.
