Prayer at Fort Sumter in 1860

A chaplain offers up a prayer as Major Anderson kneels with some of his men assembled in Fort Sumter’s parade ground on the day after all the Union forces took up residence there.

This illustration accompanies an article in Harper’s Weekly about what was fast becoming the hottest story of the day. Northern readers were already enthralled with the story of the brave commander and his men who had just staked everything on holding out in Fort Sumter.
