April 12th ,1861, 4:30 am . General PT Beauregard gave the order to fire the first cannon shot by the Confederate army in Charleston ,SC at the US soldiers on the not fully completed Fort Sumter located in Charleston Harbor. The "honor" of firing the first shot was given to Edmund Ruffin, a radical supporter of the Confederacy. Since Lincoln had been unable to resupply the fort by sea (which was the only possible way) it had to surrender relatively quickly. An interesting footnote about Edmund Ruffin: he was so hostile to the "Yankee race" that when he realized the Confederacy was at it's end, he didn't want to live under the "Yankee race" and committed suicide.
